  1. Past hour
  2. I opted for the HU 6014/1 z MANN oil filter and the BMW Twinpower Longlife-04 5W30 motor oil.
  3. On subsequent generations of vehicles, including yours, FE oil has superseded LL04. Simply enter your vehicle's model on the Opie Oils website, and the site will return results tailored to your vehicle.
  4. The most common oil for BMWs is 5w-30 LL-04, but you should check your owner's handbook. Hopefully, it will tell you that. Also, unless you want your warranty voided, you should never use AI for important decisions—or anything, really.
  5. Hey there! I would like to schedule an oil change for a 2020 BMW X3 xDrive30e Hybrid with 130,000 kilometers on the odometer (VIN: WBATS110709D47624). I am at a loss as to which option to select. There is a lot of disagreement online, and when I attempted to use AI to help me decide between the two oils, it gave me conflicting advice: 0W-20 BMW TwinPower Turbo LL-17 FE+ or 5W-30 LL-04 BMW TwinPower Turbo Engine Oil, both made by BMW, 1000 ml each.

  8. Sure, I'm grateful. What I have discovered is this: Problems and Their Solutions Most often, a faulty brake light switch is to blame when the main light comes on but the speedometer remains unset. Two individual circuits make up the switch. The first one activates the brake lights, and the second one signals to the cruise control system that you aren't applying the brakes. If the second circuit doesn't work, the vehicle will assume you're braking and won't set. Verify that the brake lights are functioning properly; however, keep in mind that a faulty internal switch for the cruise control may be present even if the outside lights are operational. In most cases, you can fix the problem by replacing this cheap switch that is located above the brake pedal. A secondary clutch pedal switch informs the engine computer if the clutch is engaged, which is only present in Sorentos with manual transmissions. The cruise control will not allow you to select a speed if this switch is malfunctioning or not properly positioned. Problems with the "SET / COAST" or "+" / "-" rocker switches on the steering wheel could be due to loose wire ribbons or worn internal contacts; however, the master power button is functional and illuminates the dashboard. The vehicle's computer will prevent the cruise control from engaging if the speed sensor fails to provide a consistent reading. Suggested Following Actions To check the brake lights, either have someone else hold the rearview mirror while you press down on the brake pedal, or go around to a reflective surface. Connect an OBD2 scanner to your Sorento. A broken brake switch or cruise circuit can still cause the body or powertrain computer to store specific fault codes, even when the check engine light is not on.
  9. Have you been diligently following these steps: Using the Cruise Control Buttons: A Quick Guide Turn the system on or off by pressing this main button. On your dashboard, you'll see an indicator light. SET / -: Press or pull the toggle/lever down toward SET- to lock in your desired speed after you've reached it (must be above 20 mph / 30 km/h). To increase your set speed or return to your previous speed after braking, push the toggle or lever up toward RES+.
  10. Quite typical, in my opinion. It should have been noted that I attempted to activate the cruise control multiple times while traveling on the highway.
  11. The 2010 Sorento, which was manufactured in June, has a 2.2-liter gasoline-powered engine and a 6-speed manual transmission. However, there seems to be an issue with the cruise control. The dashboard displays an activation light, but the cruise control does not activate. I've heard that this could be related to the speed sensor, but I would greatly appreciate any confirmation before I begin looking for replacement parts.
  12. Acquire this to obtain the appropriate fittings: Connect it, and subsequently, you may modify it to your preference.
  13. Accurate measurements and understanding the fittings should facilitate a replacement. 👍
  14. An extensive narrative, yet the initial pipe has been misplaced.
  15. Transmission cooler line or pipe required. Component Number A166 500 4972 Currently on back order with Merc, with no indication of availability. Any suggestions?
