We experienced vibrations when braking, so we changed the front brake discs and brake pads. There is a reduced amount of trembling now, however there is still some remaining. Do we have any fresh, distorted discs? The newly manufactured discs are ATE and originate from China. Who has knowledge? I have purchased a set of authentic MB discs, but I have not yet installed them. The rapid depletion of funds!

Every individual who has purchased a pre-owned vehicle has inherently acquired partially used tires. I own a collection of 20-inch wheels specifically designed for my E91 vehicle. I have acquired two sets of Michelin Pilotsport 4S tires on eBay, each priced at little more than £75 a tire. These tires come with a tread depth of 5-6mm, but their original retail price is £250 per tire. I often monitor eBay and purchase them in pairs whenever they become available. As IrvesBMW suggests, verify the date codes.

Do you own any email or written communication from your insurer? Examine your bank statement to identify any direct debits or yearly payments and the recipient of these transactions. In the event of an accident, it is possible for the police to access the Motor Insurance Database (MID) at a more advanced level than the typical driver. This would allow them to determine the insurance provider for your coverage.

If you are unable to get the original installers, any competent electrician will be capable of inspecting it. I recommend discontinuing its use and deactivating its supply till completion.

If my memory serves me well, the yearly insurance premium for my Mk VII Jaguar when I was 18 exceeded the amount I paid for the vehicle. Considering the impact of inflation since 1964, I believe that the currently discussed figures, which may sound alarmingly high, are not as severe as they may initially appear.

I am curious whether the T6 would qualify as a hybrid vehicle for the purpose of using the HOV lane. Has anybody investigated that?

To add extra complexity: Whenever I want to add an additional component to a car, I simply get the necessary power supply from an available, but unused, fuse connection in one of the fuse boxes. Most vehicles have unused connections that provide a continuous or ignition power source, which may be used for this purpose. On several instances, a crimp on spade connection with an inline fuse inserted into the live side of a connection has proven effective without requiring any additional load on an existing circuit.

Greetings. I have recently made a purchase for a GT Line S HEV. After perusing past discussions on this platform and gathering information from other sources, it is widely believed that the sound quality of the enhanced audio, particularly on DAB, is subpar. However, there are a few remarks suggesting that a software upgrade implemented last year could have resolved the issue. Is there anybody who has the HK kit and can provide their feedback? What is the current status or condition? I acknowledge that sound quality is a matter of personal preference, and I am not seeking audiophile-level sound quality in a vehicle. However, I would appreciate knowing whether it works well.

I purchased a charming e350 cdi blueefficiency convertible from an individual vendor. The vehicle had around 100,000 miles on the odometer and operated smoothly and flawlessly. The owner seemed to have maintained the item, however they had personally performed all the maintenance tasks, resulting in little documentation. The automobile was well maintained and I was little infatuated. Just before to the summer, I made the decision to purchase it. I have never purchased anything that cost more than $1,000, and I always used my automobiles until they were inoperable. However, with my most recent car, I kept using it until I became tired of repeatedly repairing the catalytic converter, which was stolen on several occasions (at least three times, although I stopped keeping track). Initially, everything was going well for the first 2,000 kilometres. I acquired a tan on my arms and had compliments from unfamiliar individuals about my automobile, which amused me. One day, the automobile had a malfunction where it was unable to shift gears and became stuck in 4th gear. As a result, I took it to my nearby and helpful garage for repairs. I received a bill of $1,000 for the replacement of a turbocharger and swirl flap actuator, which marked the beginning of a challenging experience. After extensively researching the topic, I am certain that I have a partially blocked fuel injector, resulting in the formation of black crystalline deposits. I discovered a substantial lump, similar in size to coal, in close proximity to the oil dipstick. The performance drastically declined after the modifications to the actuator, resulting in erratic behaviour like that of a kangaroo, with a refusal to exceed around 2,000 revolutions per minute. The vehicle has shown a wide range of error codes, including overboost, underboost, excessive EGR flow, insufficient EGR flow, different electrical shorts, and malfunctioning xenon lights. Although I cannot recall all of the specific codes, I have purchased an Autel scanner to get more detailed information. I will compile all of them and then place them here at a later time. I brought it to MSL, but unfortunately, on the day I brought it, the error codes were not being generated. They allowed me a period of time to test drive the automobile, so I operated it for one hour, at varying speeds, experiencing occasional instability, like the movements of a kangaroo. However, at the conclusion of the hour, no error codes were detected. I was informed that the map could be faulty. Although I did not have the automobile mapped, it is possible that the prior owner did. The turbocharger has started emitting a noise like that of an airliner, and when I release pressure from the accelerator, a whistling sound similar to that of a dump valve is heard. Prior to replacing the actuator, the noise had never occurred. Therefore, I returned the vehicle to the shop that first performed the job, and they conducted a leak test using a smoke machine. After failing to uncover any issues, they proceeded to block the EGR as a means of testing and let me to drive the vehicle. The automobile has regained its smooth operation, however it has not fully returned to its previous optimal condition and is still experiencing issues with the EGR system and sometimes displaying DPF error codes. Currently, I am using a different car. I have made arrangements with Mercedes to address the passenger airbag recall for my cherished automobile. However, I am uncertain about the most prudent course of action, as I do not want to invest further funds without a reasonable expectation of a positive outcome. To a certain extent, I have derived pleasure from the experience, since I have always harboured a desire to expand my knowledge of automobiles, given my background in computer science. It served as a refreshing diversion from my usual routine. I am not really inclined to dispose of it; instead, I like to attempt to rectify the situation independently. Fortunately, I have the advantageous circumstance of being able to work from home on most days and having access to another vehicle if necessary. Do you have any ideas on the course of action to take after the vehicle is returned from Mercedes? Is there any method by which I may create a backup of a song or similar content before it is seen by others who will undoubtedly update the Engine Control Unit (ECU), despite my express instructions to avoid the emissions upgrade? If you have reached this far, I appreciate your time and effort in reading.

Please go to the hyperlink that I provided earlier throughout the week. Follow the hyperlink that I have provided and proceed with further investigation. This should not be complex, since it is a car that is ten years old. Once you establish the Bluetooth connection, you will also need a separate power connection just for the purpose of charging your USB-C phone, without any data transmission. The use of Bluetooth instead of a data cable connection offers a significant benefit, allowing you to effortlessly access your automobile, start it, and simply command, "Hey Sir, play Start it Up, by the Rolling Stones," without the need for any cable-related hassle.

I apologise, but I am now having difficulty comprehending the situation at hand. Most likely, the blame lies with me. Is there an MMI connection present in the car? If that is the case, the typical procedure involves connecting an Invery Bluetooth adapter and using Bluetooth to transmit your material. This allows you to access iPhone choices using the steering wheel controls. However, there is no comparable to CarPlay. To do that, you would need a whole separate head unit.

Apologies for the question that may seem simple, but it is always vital to verify. I have two things that spring to mind: Are you certain that you own the appropriate cable for your electrical connection? There are inexpensive Chinese connections available that may seem to be functional but really do not perform well. Furthermore, can you confirm that you do not own an MMI connection for this? If you own such port, it would be more logical to transmit data over Bluetooth to the desired destination.

Is this referring to the 2011 SL350 model or the EQC model? There is a disparity of more than ten years. (You should be able to connect the phone to the EQC via Bluetooth.)

The keys on my M4 rifle constantly need to be replaced after a few months. Unfortunately, I only received one key with the rifle. However, I have added a rubber cover to the key, which helps prevent wear and tear.Furthermore, the device is a vivid shade of pink, making it very visible in the event that it is dropped or misplaced.

Using aftermarket springs might result in height discrepancies that may need additional time and financial resources to rectify. It is advisable to get the accurate ones from MB. Unless you are personally engaged in the task and get pleasure from it. Ensure to modify both simultaneously.

Frequently, the residue may be removed by rolling it off with robust adhesive tape, especially if it is heated with a hairdryer first. I accomplished the same task with both of my belongings without the need for solvents or cleaners, but it did involve a significant amount of time.

Attempt to reset the gearbox and let it to adapt to your driving style.

Occasionally, doing a power cycle may effectively restore the system to its default state. The issue you are experiencing may be due to the engine and not related to the gearbox.

Which diagnostic method was employed? I believe that ista is the optimal toolkit for doing investigations.

What scanning method did you use, since general methods might overlook or provide deceptive results. Given that the issue is resolved by turning the device off and on, it indicates a potential electrical problem, maybe related to the turbo Variable Nozzle Turbine (VNT).

Indeed, it is much delayed. I had mistakenly believed that it was completed not too long ago. I have just purchased an authentic repair kit that includes new bolts. I will now do some research to find the appropriate torque values.
