I purchased these items:

Hello, do you know where I can obtain replacement bulbs? My current bulb is functioning, but the display lacks brightness. It is a 1.2W bulb, although it may require a higher wattage for improved illumination.

Thank you, but the matter has been resolved. It is a typical filament bulb, but I needed to manipulate the small brass components that establish the wiping contact with the PCB. Ultimately, clarity emerged

Is it an LED light bulb?...If that is the case, they are polarity sensitive, which may indicate that the orientation is incorrect.

The climate control in my 1998 R129 functions; nevertheless, despite substituting the bulb in the holder beneath the unit, the light remains nonfunctional, leaving me in obscurity, if you understand my meaning. The old light had evidently burned out. My multimeter indicates that the replacement bulb is functional and has a secure connection to the holder. Inserting it into the unit's underside requires a push and a 90-degree rotation. I have completed this action, but I suspect it is not establishing proper contact, unless there is an internal malfunction. Does anyone possess experience with this? Thank you.

I also utilise a thumb drive. The initial inquiry pertained to the functionality of an iPod Classic.

I utilise a 15-year-old USB drive through a USB to USB-C converter without any complications. 64 gigabytes of music

Specifically, the iPod Classic 7th Generation.

I attempted to connect my iPod Classic to the USB Type-A port, but it was not recognised. 2024 CX-90 Turbo Select.

Recently acquired a 2025 CX-90. Thus far, it is quite pleasant. I am studying the capabilities of vehicles. Specifically, the functionality of the central display of the entertainment system. All components of the entertainment system appear to function properly, with the exception of one element. I attempted to connect my vintage iPod Classic using a USB-C adapter, but it would not function. I received a notification indicating "USB device not recognised." The auto detects a connection but is not processing it. Am I overlooking a particular method to achieve this?

I would sincerely recommend acquiring a Mk9 Honda Civic 1.8i manual. I own an N43 for five years, fortunate that it only experienced injector problems, which I was able to rectify independently. Prior to initiating the engine, I would offer a prayer that no more injector has commenced leaking. Some experienced misfortune with plastic chain guides fracturing and obstructing oil flow.

Disregard the N43, as they are financial burdens. The N47 engine receives negative publicity; yet, if it undergoes chain replacement every 100,000 kilometres and frequent oil and filter changes, it can demonstrate considerable reliability. I have had e9x vehicles with over 100,000 miles, and they have performed OK; minor suspension components and brakes needed replacement, which is typical for any vehicle on the road. Regardless of your choice, it will undoubtedly surpass the PSA substandard engine.

I possess a 2007 BMW 320d with 107,000 miles that I need to sell, but it is somewhat distant. The lacquer has deteriorated on the bonnet and roof, however the car has received meticulous care over the past 15 or 16 years. I do not desire much for it.

What is your location?

I observed that with my Peugeot. Regarding a pleasurable vehicle to cherish for 8-9 months before I depart for university, would you endorse any of these options? I acknowledge that the clutch mechanism and timing chain are susceptible to failure; nevertheless, after a comprehensive inspection of the vehicle over the past 8-9 months, do you believe I will be fine? If not, could you direct me to any other enjoyable vehicles? Thank you!

A BMW 320d is not a prudent choice within your budget, as it will likely have high mileage and the timing chains are prone to wear, which could consume over half your budget for a replacement. Additionally, various other components are likely to fail, not potentially, but certainly. If you do not possess at least three times the vehicle's cost in savings, it is advisable to refrain from purchasing unless you are exceptionally skilled in automotive repair. Issues may arise with injectors, harmoni

Greetings! I am new here and seeking to replace my Peugeot 208 wetbelt with a five-door vehicle. I admire the appearance of the E90 3 Series; but, after consulting my insurance provider, I discovered that any model above the 320i/320d exceeds my financial capacity. I examined Facebook Marketplace, given my limited budget of £2,200. I discovered a BMW 318i with 70,000 miles, as well as a 318d and 320d, both exceeding 150,000 miles. I am enquiring which of the four alternatives (318i, 318d, 320i, 320d) would be optimal. I have heard that the N47 engine is a financial liability; but, because I require a vehicle for less than a year, it should not be excessively problematic. I have not extensively researched the N43, but I have heard that it is somehow inferior to the N47. I am uncertain. I hope the timing chain does not lead to significant problems. What is the anticipated monthly maintenance cost? I am pleased to perform the majority of tasks independently, such as oil changes, brake maintenance, lighting repairs, and body panel replacements. However, without a garage prevents me from undertaking more time-consuming tasks without interference from the UK weather. I am seeking instruction; any assistance would be welcomed. 😁

The issue of the adhesive rear tailboard window has been addressed multiple times prior. The Forum Advanced Search feature (accessible via the three white dots in the Black Header bar at the top of the page) will aid you.

Thank you for your response. Indeed, it is a normal Captiva C100. I continue to encounter difficulties in locating a method to open my tailboard window. Furthermore, I believe the Captiva is an excellent crossover, and I feel secure in it due to its robust structure.

The Forum system has classified your vehicle as a Captiva 'Sport'. This, I believe, is attributable to the Forum's attempt to utilise AI in its descriptions. Being an American-based Forum, it predominantly considers American models, such as the Captiva Sport, and fails to recognise the existence of Captivas that are not American Sport variants. It is encouraging to learn that you have successfully completed the repairs, and I hope they will be beneficial in the future.

Acquired it secondhand. Required extensive repairs. Issue with the throttle body.

There are undoubtedly some peculiar individuals present. Install a set of Goodyear Eagles on the vehicle, and its performance will significantly improve.

I could comprehend this if the back tires conformed to the same (proper) specifications, but they do not. One incorrect tyre, indeed, but three?
