I neglected to clarify the procedure for registering for the complimentary 12-month Kia Charge Plus membership, which is the current promotional offer, when I collected my vehicle last week. -

I appreciate your responses. I do not want floor mats. I have included a photo to illustrate my request. -
Greetings. I am seeking rear door mats, right (83724-A2010) and left (83714-A2010). I would be grateful for your assistance in locating them.

Thank you, everyone. The BMW bodyshop assistant said that the guarantee is now eight years. I said that I had learnt it was 12 years before, among other details. He said that he would submit the task request for warranty. I must await the outcome. Failure to proceed will be problematic; I estimate the expense to completely disassemble and refinish two doors will be around £1,000.

Greetings. I own a 2016 BMW F10 530D. Having owned several vehicles and experienced various aspects, I much like the driving dynamics, quality, tactile sensation, aesthetics, and overall design of this automobile. I purchased it second-hand in April. Today, I consulted a clever repairer about my rear bumper and enquired about what I believed to be touch-ups on the passenger rear door. He said that it seems to be oxidation, which may signify the onset of rust spots. I was incredulous! I have seen reports indicating that some individuals have experienced them. Is it advisable to fix and retain the vehicle? I have not yet visited BMW to see if they can inspect the door's paint and verify that it has not been previously altered before confirming any potential warranty coverage. Could anybody share their experiences, ple

I own one of the aforementioned Ultimate covers. It remains on the CLK while we are outside of Italy. Currently, a maximum duration of three months. The paintwork is always entirely dry behind the cover. A little amount of dust infiltrates, likely from the underside, but far less than any cover I have previously used. I believe it is too cumbersome for daily or weekly removal, but it is excellent for long-term usage.

Procedure: Locate and Acquire a Planet / Diagbox Diagnostic If you have registered on this site seeking assistance with your Peugeot (which is common), you will likely be advised to get a "Peugeot Planet" diagnostic prior to moving further. The rationale behind this is because some failures may arise from several factors; the "anti-pollution fault" shown might stem from numerous issues, and indiscriminately replacing components is both costly and time-intensive. What is "Peugeot Planet"? It is a diagnostic apparatus specifically built for Peugeot automobiles. What advantages does Peugeot Planet possess over other code readers? Peugeot Planet has extensive capabilities beyond providing precise information on specific trouble codes associated with Peugeots; it can also read live data from all main vehicle components and conduct component tests. Certain code readers also do not detect fault codes. Certain scanners fail to provide accurate codes. Some scanners erroneously inform owners of petrol-engine vehicles about defective components that are only installed in diesel engines. Alternatively, they only provide the uninformative "manufacturer specific code" notification. This may result in a futile pursuit if you seek assistance via Google. I conducted tests using many scanners on my vehicle, which had established problems in the EGR, diesel heater sensor, and glow plug. Only Planet successfully identified these fault codes and retrieved live data confirming the components' malfunction. On two instances, I have seen a national breakdown service attributing a customer's high-pressure fuel pump failure to the diagnostic code, only to discover that the actual problem was with the tank lift pump—one case had a clogged filter, while the second was due to insufficient current to the pump caused by an ageing battery. I also engage in freelancing work for many independent garages using several expert code readers. The need of using Planet and Diagbox indicates that even the premium equipment is not universally comprehensive for all vehicles. What are "Lexia" and "Diagbox"? Lexia3 refers to the hardware connection that connects the vehicle to the computer. To exacerbate the ambiguity "Lexia" is the designation of the software used for diagnosing Citroën vehicles. Diagbox is a comprehensive solution for diagnosing Citroen and Peugeot automobiles, including the sometimes problematic 307 that Planet cannot read. It is the only software program that continues to get updates. Nonetheless, it is a resource-intensive software that requires a relatively fast laptop to operate at an acceptable pace, namely not a Netbook with less than 4GB of RAM and without an SSD. Should I visit a Peugeot dealership for a diagnostic assessment? You may proceed, but they will impose their usual labour rate. The typical cost is around £80 plus VAT for one hour. Certain dealers may offer a half-hour charge. What is the status of other garages that possess diagnostic equipment or services? You may attempt. I will refrain from identifying specific items; nevertheless, I can assert that I freelance for many garages using prominent diagnostic technologies, and I get plenty work when their costly "scan-anything" machines fail to detect an issue. What are the options available? A number of forum users own the diagnostic equipment and are willing to assist. Expenses range from a "pint of beer" and upwards. Prices are not predetermined; thus, it is necessary to consult with the member to negotiate the cost. This should be preemptively agreed to avoid any discord. A further visit post-repair should be contemplated, not alone to verify the resolution of the issue, but also to erase the residual fault codes recorded in the system. What is the method to locate a member? Initially, you should provide your location in your user profile to expedite the process somewhat. Subsequently, choose the PEUGEOT PLANET MAP thread. A Google map displays the locations of those having the equipment. The map furthermore includes proprietors from several automotive communities on Facebook to provide comprehensive coverage. Identify the individual next to you and dispatch a Private Message (PM) rather than a visitor message, or reach out to them via Facebook or email if their information is available on their pushpin. Select your profile photo on the top menu bar, then click on CONVERSATIONS. Select the blue START CONVERSATION button located underneath the banner image: Begin typing the username of the person you want to contact in the RECIPIENT box, and it will automatically resolve. If no one is around, a comparable map is available on frenchcarforum.co.uk; however, the users may mostly be Citroen drivers and may not assist with particular Peugeot mechanical enquiries. Nonetheless, it should enough for diagnostic purposes and to relay the information here. Will these individuals repair my vehicle? Negative. These individuals are only typical Peugeot owners, same to yourself. They have just invested in a cable and a laptop to do diagnostics. They serve just as intermediaries relaying the information sent by the vehicle. The use and interpretation of this information are at your discretion, whether by you or a technician. I am unable to send private messages! This measure is implemented to deter spammers from bothering members. To activate your PM privileges, you must have made 20 posts to the forum. If you want to avoid superfluous commentary on arbitrary postings, utilise the NEED 20 postings BEFORE PM thread. If you are unable to post on that platform, consider using this alternative. Usernames are clickable; choose them to verify their latest online status. If they have not been online for a month or more, inform Gibbo so he can remove them off the map. Ensure you send a private message rather than a guest message, since private communications trigger a notice email, whilst visitor messages do not. I own the kit; how can I access the map? Provide PM Gibbo with the following information: username, postcode for the desired pushpin location, and the towns, suburbs, or shires you are prepared to cover. The only "requirement" is to check the forum everyday for any communications from members. Consider disabling "visitor messages," since some new members may mistake these with private messages, and unlike private communications, you will not get an email notice for a visitor message. There is no one in my vicinity. We continuously seek more individuals to cover regions with deficiencies or locations where individuals have sold their properties and transitioned to another brand. Acquire the Lexia cable (about £40 from Aliexpress) and an obsolete laptop or netbook. Consult my guide here.

I removed the inferior original components and replaced them with heavy-duty ones from a nearby tractor and farm supply shop. €4 for two clamps and a few more 4mm bolts for the CB and 120W LED high beam.

It just activates the glow plugs; it does not circulate oil or gasoline, since cranking is required for that function.

A month is inconsequential; it is OK to proceed as usual without any preventive measures against ignition.

I have just been driving my vehicle at night, and oncoming vehicles are signaling me with their headlights. Do you have any suggestions as to why there are no broken bulbs, and I am certainly not using the high beam?

Upon starting my Mini Cooper S 2005, the engine revs to around 3000 rpm before quickly stabilizing to its regular idle speed. Typically, the value hovers around 800, however sometimes it may exceed this threshold. Do you have any hypotheses on the potential causes of this situation? I have conducted an inspection to identify any potential vacuum or air leaks, but I have been unable to locate any. Thank you in advance

Additionally, the Astra-MkI / Kadett-D SR & GTE series, as well as my first Omega, also included this.
