Thank you for your response. It is a pre-owned vehicle. I am attempting to ascertain whether others have experienced these issues prior to contacting Kia, as I wish to save an unnecessary fee for diagnostics only to be informed that "they all do that."

I can provide information regarding my Hyundai Tucson, which is equipped with the HDA capability, and my eldest son own a similarly equipped KIA EV6. HDA operates quite well on both vehicles. I recommend that you schedule an appointment with your selling dealership and elucidate the issues encountered with the HDA engaged, as it should not function as you have described. If you purchased the car as new, you have the option to reject it; the procedure is available online or through Citizens Advice.

This is my inaugural electric vehicle, and I am acclimating to the distinctions from my previous Focus, which I cherished immensely. One of the initial shortcomings I observed during the trip home after purchasing it was that while using the cruise control, the car exhibited a shake on the road. Initially, I believed the automobile was being affected by the wind, since I sensed it shifting beneath me and the steering wheel oscillating laterally. Upon braking and disengaging the cruise control, the shimmying ceased. After several excursions, I learnt that it occurred solely when HDA was operational. It appears to be perpetually overcompensating in an effort to maintain its lane position. Do they all engage in this behaviour? A memorable experience with HDA occurred when navigating roadworks on the M3, with the cruise control set to 50, when the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated. I looked at the HUD and observed the speed limit indicator indicating 70, despite the absence of any road signs. During the return journey, the variable speed limit on the M25 indicated 50, although the system saw it as 80 and accelerated accordingly. What the heck! The HDA deactivates each time cruise control is engaged unless I navigate the options to disable it permanently, if that is possible.

The component I received functioned properly. Regrettably, I required the part today, as I am travelling to Leeds tomorrow. I now believe that all manufacturers who provided quotes for inexpensive parts up to VIN fg*** and costly parts beyond that VIN are deceptive, as the same item is compatible with all, provided the correct model is selected. Thank you for your assistance.

Thank you. Retrieving an Intermotor replacement from Motor Parts Direct in Doncaster. I will inform you if it is successful!

It functions adequately. Thank you.

I recommend procuring a quality brand from a respected seller, given that you have conducted your homework. I installed an FAI component from an automotive supplier on my vehicle; it cost approximately £50 and functioned excellently.

Greetings, yesterday I experienced the typical absence of power steering, loss of stability control, and malfunction of hill descent control, among other issues. I utilised ThinkDiag, which indicates that the front right wheel sensor is the source of the issue. I have removed it from the vehicle to acquire part numbers, and I am now rather perplexed. This is a Land Rover product with two part numbers: FK729E731-AA and 10.0711-5506.3. I am unable to locate a component that corresponds to these figures. Utilising Suderia, I obtain a reference to LR071974. They require £165.89 and must procure the component. Autodoc has a variety of sensors, in stock, similar to part number LR071974, priced between £14 and £90. Halfords and Europarts also require sums in the three-digit range. Am I overlooking something, as the pricing disparity implies that I am not purchasing the same item. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Adverse Houston. Exclusively authentic from BMW. With this component, any additional action is akin to self-sabotage. The majority of aftermarket variations, including Behr and Mahle, are identical inferior products manufactured in Italy.

Primary statistic. I purchased one from ECP, and it lasted only 9 miles until the car reached temperature and then became stuck in the open position. While not advocating for the payment of BMW tax, consider acquiring a quality product from MAHLE. MEYLE is my preference.

No original equipment exists for the main stat produced by Steyr, made in Austria. Obtain authenticity and exclusivity.

The third component was the automatic gearbox cooler, which was an authentic BMW part, but the other two were not original equipment (OE).

Which statistical models did you apply, and what is the third statistical automatic box cooler?

Greetings to all. I am experiencing an issue with my 530d. Fails to reach operational temperature. Struggles to exceed 60 degrees. I recognise that this is a prevalent issue, having reviewed numerous forums. I have replaced all three thermostats, yet there has been no change. Currently, the fuel efficiency is poor; nonetheless, the vehicle operates well otherwise. Can somebody assist me in ceasing to scratch my head? The only other possibility I considered is a faulty sensor; however, the vehicle does not emit excessively hot air even at the maximum level, so I am very certain it is not the issue. I sincerely hope someone can provide clarification. I anticipate a response with great eagerness. Thank you in advance.

I recognised the familiarity; it has prompted my recollection. It appears that AI still has considerable progress to make.

Does it appear as such?

Artificial Intelligence proposes this. The purple square featuring a vertical line and a star symbol signifies a sensor or electronic control unit alarm in your Mercedes W205. This is a generic alert, frequently associated with a malfunction in a particular system, and it is generally accompanied by a supplementary message on the dashboard display that delineates the precise issue. Proposed Measures Verify for a supplementary message: The primary dashboard interface will probably exhibit language (e.g., "Inoperative", "Refer to Owner's Manual") elucidating the particular system experiencing the malfunction (e.g., Active Brake Assist, ESP, or a designated sensor). Reinitialise the vehicle: The problem may occasionally stem from a transient electronic malfunction, which can be rectified by powering down the vehicle, removing the key for around 30 seconds, and then restarting the engine. Exercise caution while driving: This symbol, when displayed in yellow or purple, indicates a caution rather than an immediate red-level safety concern, allowing you to proceed to a safe place or an authorised repair facility. Seek the assistance of a technician: Due to the symbol's lack of specificity, a diagnostic scan instrument (OBD-II scanner) is required to ascertain the exact error code and underlying problem.

The "very clever Mercedes-Me" may be alerting you that Christmas is approaching and that you need to get the remaining gifts. The Star signifies the forthcoming event. The purple square symbolises a gift-wrapped package. The boundary between them is the timeline.
