I asked Imran about second cats, and he said they won't make much of a difference. So, I'm simply trying to find a resonator box, if anyone happens to have one lying around?

Much obliged.

Feel free to contact Imran at Torqueflow Birmingham. Maybe he can lend a hand.

Excuse me, In order to get my R171 SLK55 back to factory specs, I need to find a resonator box and two secondary cats. It already has an x pipe and secondary cat delete installed. Wishing someone had swapped out theirs for xpipes and a secondary cat deletion and was willing to part with the old components? Warm regards

Hello, buddy! Is everything well now? I have a similar issue with my E92 330d

The pressure regulator orings are in good condition; I did not see any signs of damage or dryness. Since the pumps are identical and cost roughly 100 euros less, I have ordered a secondhand high pressure fuel pump from a Range Rover m57d30 engine. I will inform you on its functionality once I install the pump, which should arrive between February 4 and February 12. In my opinion, the hpfp is to blame since, even though it isn't linked to the common rail, the fuel still pours out of the pump like flowing water when I turn the key, leading me to believe that there should be pressure there.

For m57, I'd go with the e46.

There are 184 horsepower in this model. If ignition is turned on, the supply pressure is 4.03 mbar; if it is turned off, it is 0.95 mbar. I don't know how to add screenshots, but you can see some of my images at this website. Let me know if it works!

The prior owner informed me that it has started troubles in the past, requiring starting fluid in order to start.

Engine model: M57 or M57N (184 or 204 horsepower)? Please tell me the background of this vehicle and the issue. So, what is the supply pressure when the ignition is turned on? Does anyone know how to decipher those codes? Verify them in DDE and provide comprehensive screenshots.

I have tried running diagnostics with IPA on my non-starting BMW E46 330d, and it comes up with a rail pressure of 6 bar. Loosening the high pressure fuel line from the hpfp to the rail caused it to spray fuel, but just a little amount. There was no discernible 'pressure' in the spray. When I measure the pressure before the supply begins, it comes out normally. Escrow was removed. After the gasoline filter, the fuel pressure is normal, according to my inspection. May it be the HPFP pressure regulator's orings or the HPFP unit itself? Additionally, I will document some failure codes from IPA here. 600,000 12800,000 1024,1152, and 7,680 I know you're her; you're my sole possibility.

I saw recently that you can eliminate the previous driver using the Connect/Kia app on your phone; it may have been more advantageous to do it in that manner rather than directly on the vehicle.

The issue is in the fact that it is ultimately the responsibility of the prior owner to eliminate their data, which raises the question of why one would neglect to do so, particularly when engaging with third-party garages. Considering the quantity of vehicles, it is unreasonable to anticipate that they possess knowledge of all procedures... Examine the seven-year warranty on that item. One thing is certain: deleting a previous user will not render the car inoperable. A default user exists.

It is a violation of GDPR for them to sell you the automobile while retaining the former owner's data. I am quite certain. I would return to the vendor and bring this to their attention. Consequently, if you erase the driver from the vehicle, it will be instantly removed from the Kia App as well. Indeed, return to the vendor; they are disseminating falsehoods and violating the law as well.

Upon my purchase, all data from the prior owner (the dealership) had been erased by the dealership. I had to establish everything from the beginning. If your dealership claims they lack the knowledge to perform the task, I recommend returning to them and asserting that their statement is unfounded.

I cannot provide a solution; nevertheless, this issue should undoubtedly be addressed by the previous owner and/or the dealer prior to the sale.

I acquired my Kia Sportage GT-Line S HEV two weeks ago. Upon collecting the vehicle, the sales representative was unaware of the procedure to erase the previous owner from the automobile or the Kia app. Instructed to reach out to Kia UK. I have accomplished that.I attempted to disconnect driver 1 from the display, resulting in the car becoming inoperative (all systems off). I am now apprehensive that if I attempt to remove it from the vehicle and Kia Connect, the car would cease to function. I will contact the Kia dealership to request resolution of the issue. I am currently unable to establish a car account. Any guidance is appreciated, please.

Much obliged. Indeed, all owners possess varying levels of expertise, and in my opinion, a dedicated thread is beneficial. I possess a Mercedes from the year 2004. The primary reason I purchased my first Mercedes was due to the automatic gearbox. I acquired my first Mercedes-Benz in 2005, a vehicle with a 53 registration plate, and my second in 2008, a vehicle with a 07 registration plate. Both vehicles were of the W203 series. These vehicles lacked this safety function, as I nearly discovered at my expense. On multiple occasions throughout the years of owning these vehicles, I inadvertently left them in Drive mode and exited the car to verify their positioning inside the parking lines. This occurred a few times during work hours following difficult encounters with unpleasant clients. Fortunately, because to the flatness of the parking space, I observed the car moving slowly and in promptly. In 2016, I acquired my inaugural brand new Mercedes GLE. Several months after acquiring this vehicle, while concurrently owning the C-Class, I did not operate the GLE daily. As I acclimated to the GLE's dimensions in relation to London's narrow side streets, I discovered the 'park/drive safety function' when I parked in our driveway and opened the door to verify the vehicle's alignment. At first, I was somewhat astonished, but I swiftly comprehended the situation. This is an exceptional feature, and I am uncertain whether other brands offer this choice; if they do, many may only discover it upon neglecting to disengage the gears. Conversely, I remember someone stating that it can be a "nuisance." Upon opening the door to briefly inspect something, the vehicle may engage its safety mode. If I recall correctly, someone mentioned in the same topic that this safety feature can be deactivated, however it is not applicable to me. It is exceptional. enhancement of the safety features on my Mercedes-Benz

You have been a member since 2003, so it is understandable that you have encountered the subjects in my threads numerous times. Conversely, I have been a member for only 10 months and continue to discover new information about a marque I have owned for decades. Furthermore, I am confident there are other members like myself, which is why I invest significant time and effort in assisting newer members rather than the seasoned veterans, who I presume possess extensive knowledge and lack interest in my posts, which may seem trivial to them. Similarly, I am not directing my efforts towards these forum experts, as they certainly do not require assistance from someone like me. This is an international forum for Mercedes owners and enthusiasts, encompassing both members and guests. My intention is to offer assistance, advice, insights, and occasionally share humorous clips, cartoons, or light-hearted content. I do not aim to impart knowledge to those already well-versed, as I have previously stated; those with expertise may simply bypass my threads, as I have reiterated multiple times. My little movie elucidates the function, since a 'picture' conveys a thousand words, making it more comprehensible than text. Therefore, I believe a comprehensive video on the topic is warranted, and at 2 minutes and 4 seconds, it is relatively concise.

Sorry about that. I agree with you I thought you were posting about active park assistance. Based on the vast majority of your previous postings, which address topics that have been discussed ad nauseam. Regardless, a full video dedicated to that function? I removed my message so as not to further derail your thread.

I think you would benefit from reading my post and maybe even watching the movie because you are completely incorrect. Oh, I see... It seems like you're against my attempts to produce useful postings in some way
