The clip for the air intake pipe has fractured.
PixelMaster replied to jennycarlotta's topic in General Discussions
Has the inlet and vacuum system undergone smoke testing to identify leaks prior to deciding on part replacements? Are there any error codes present? -

It is a 2014 525d with an N47 engine; I have had a new intake manifold installed at the garage, which has improved performance significantly, yet there remains a minor power loss intermittently at motorway speeds along with a slight vibration. -

However, I must note that I have not encountered an F10 with a damaged clip that allows the pipe to shift sufficiently to prevent sealing, so I surmise that the issue may originate from another source. EGR malfunction or leakage in another location, such as at the swirl flaps. What type of engine is it? - Today

If it permits unrestricted airflow, then yes, it would. Insert a self-tapping screw to secure the pipe. Upon reflection, the maf is positioned downstream, thus it will be exposed to unfiltered air rather than unmetered air if that pipe is removed. -
Hello, would a minor disconnection of the air intake pipe caused by a broken holding clip result in a decrease in power and a slight vibration at highway speeds?

For what it's worth, it appears to me to be predominantly a clutch problem. Engaging the clutch pedal yields a marginal impact, which strongly indicates a hydraulic issue (potentially sparing you the time and effort of gearbox removal). Have you inspected the slave cylinder, which is relatively accessible compared to the gearbox?

Salutations, everyone! A 2011 Mercedes Vito W639 RWD 2.1 Diesel is in my possession. With the engine turned off, it shifts smoothly into any gear after I adjusted the cables, which were the Mercedes-specific parts, and the gear selector arms. I feel like I'm missing a clutch because the engine won't shift into any gear when I turn it on. A year ago, a new clutch kit called LUK (3 pieces) was introduced. After inspecting the clutch and bleeding it from the gearbox side, everything appears to be in good working order. I can quickly shift into first or second gear without crunching if I press down on the clutch pedal five to eight times. It starts up normally in any gear when the engine is off, and the clutch bites where it should, but as soon as I shift into neutral, the clutch becomes inoperable, as if it were defective. Has anyone else experienced this problem, and if so, what could be causing it? What lies ahead for me? Is it a clutch problem? I don't believe so. Is there a problem with the clutch operating? The clutch slave cylinder is new, so it could be the pedal cylinder. From the engine side fluid bottle to the brake pedal to underneath the gearbox side, I have not detected any fluid leaks anywhere in the system. Your guidance is greatly appreciated. My sincere appreciation

By any chance, were you a Kia dealer in Botley, Southampton? Then I wholeheartedly agree; if that's the case, send me a private message.

Leapmotor B10 | Leapmotor Forum

For some reason, I just can't fathom why you don't see one. Searching Google for "leapmotor forum uk" took all of a few seconds.

I can't say much bad about the Niro EV4 itself after three years, but the dealer's service department isn't exactly top-notch, so I'm thinking it's time to upgrade. Still, I've decided to get a Leapmotor B10 because of how much it costs and how much value it provides. The only features I'll miss are a head-up display and an opening sunroof, but other than that, it's got everything I need and more. Thanks again for all the advice and assistance; now I'm just hoping to locate a Leapmotor-specific forum; I haven't been able to do so yet.
