Following the advice of "sceh" in his suspension thread post, I'm going to try replacing the plugs in the brake switch and the wheel sensor.

The hold and cruise controls do not function, and the ABS warning light comes on whenever I turn the key.

I take it that everything else is functioning well, but hold and cruise aren't? Are there no trouble signals at the cluster?

The "Hold" and cruise control functions rely on the wheel-mounted speed sensor wire.

Could you clarify what you mean by "ABS cables"? 🤔

Perform a multimeter resistance test.

Because I have a few of ABS cables that I have removed but am unsure of their quality, I was wondering if there was a method to test them to see whether they were defective.

Very well, I am grateful.

The phrase "left bank, drivers side" provides a hint that it is describing a vehicle with the left-hand drive. Regardless of the driver's seat, the cylinder numbers remains same

When I ran a Google search, I got this, which baffled me.

You can rely on Google....

What does the cylinder arrangement look like from the front of a right-hand drive W205 C63 in the UK?

The flaps closing against intake constitute the stop point, hence the answer is no, regrettably.

Yeah, the only thing is that I personally just have BimmerCode, so I'll have to search around then. With the new intake's bar and flaps removed, I figured I could get away with it.

It has to do with the motion, not the motor, therefore you'll have to make adjustments and reset it to learn the end stops regardless of which direction you travel. so, the absence of flaps will cause the bar to revolve infinitely, even with your motor attached. remove the flaps and bar, replace the manifold and then find a place to reset the modifications. ISTA isn't required; autel, launch, and others can accomplish the same.

Hello everyone seeking guidance from an expert I just replaced the intake manifold in my 2c3200 and am now attempting to repair the swirl flap. I would like not to deal with the issue of recalibrating as I do not own ista. Reading this, I was considering the possibility that I may either 1. fasten my own actuator without resetting it by removing flaps while keeping the bar in place 2. Acquire the bung that I now possess by removing the bar and flaps. Would either of these choices not need an Ista reset? Also, what's your recommendation? Getting good gas mileage isn't essential to me, therefore I've removed the flaps from all of my BMWs without a problem. grateful for any feedback

The smart autonomous dipping system was standard on my Mercedes C207. Without a doubt, the most impressive set of headlights I have ever used (I've heard the newest model is even better). Personally, I've had terrible experiences with the Bi Hex headlights on my Skoda Superb.

Yeah, it's a great sunscreen. In essence, a ceramic covering

Not a headlamp shield, but a trim restorer—I thought that was what you meant.

Sun protection is essential. Reapply every several years using gtechnic C4.

Looks like you might want to think about getting new lenses. It doesn't appear like you can get aftermarket ones and they're not too hard to swap out. A friend of mine does this every year because the headlights on his fiesta become fogged up. Considering that a dealer would charge £599.00 for a new set of xenon headlights, I'm not sure it would be worthwhile to have new ones.

apply a sunscreen lotion? It is a component of several lens polish kits.

My W211's headlights still fog up nearly annually, no matter how many times I get them trimmed and cleaned to a mirror finish. This is really bothersome; is there a protective covering that can stop it? During the winter, it's noticeably different out in the countryside. Tks

It sounded like the hose was about to overheat at the same time as the noise, but it seems like it just went up and over the strut and then vanished.
