  1. Provided the cable possesses Apple certification, you are in the clear. It need not originate from Apple, yet it may still be a certified aftermarket cable. I refrain from purchasing Apple products due to their exorbitant prices relative to their value, and I have never encountered issues with aftermarket certified cables. Please inform us if that genuinely resolves your port problem, and we hope it is effective. 🤞👍
  2. Ensure that the cable in use possesses data transmission capabilities. MFCI or a similar certification is required, and it ought to function properly. The majority of inexpensive aftermarket cables lack that functionality. I trust this will be beneficial.
  3. Is it still the case that you're dreaming?
  4. open the door and deactivate the handbreak by pulling the release lever on the dashboard.
  5. I completely forgot. I am a Hybrid 2 KIA Niro
  6. If someone knows the answer, please tell me. I apologise in advance for the length: Even after spending an inordinate amount of time adjusting it, this cover won't stay put. It "clicked" the first time I returned it to the dealer; he came out, replicated my actions, and then declared that was it. Oh, absolutely. After 10 minutes, it came off. Although the previous visit to the dealer took half an hour, the salesperson advised me to use double-sided tape in case it came off again (?). With my 7-year warranty in mind, I enquired about the possibility of getting a new cover. This was deemed "cosmetic" and hence excluded from the warranty, according to the response. The shroud conceals the ADAS camera and other sensors; thus, it poses a safety concern, in my opinion. Also, according to Kia rules, it's not allowed to use adhesives.
  7. Swirling flaps can make noise without actually throwing a code. I would like to know the car's mileage.
  8. The enormous oil consumption and smoke after overrun persisted despite my best efforts to rule out the rings before getting them replaced. I sealed the stems, soaked the pistons twice in as many days, blocked the PCV valves individually, and even adjusted the turbo oil feed restrictor. The fact that I had leak down gear connected proved it in the end; the first cylinder we tried failed miserably at holding pressure, and you could hear the pressure gushing out. You could see oil drops on the cylinder walls with just one stroke of the borescope down there.
  9. I believe the M57 goes from 6 to 1 on the HP pump, then from 1 back to pipe, though I haven't played with one in a while. Turn off the intake manifold job so you can see it clearly.
  10. By "overflow oil line," do you mean a specific engine?
  11. Document everything you know. No one on the forum will offer a hand if you try to turn it into a game. My ex-wife weighs half as much as that towbar limit.
  12. Perhaps there are a lot of turns, low tyre pressure and heavy foot. Are you in Birmingham?
  13. At least it's not the 4-cylinder diesel, but I still don't think I could stand to hear more of that "death rattle." Did you know that your car comes equipped with an ASD system that can simulate engine noise? If that's the case, installing an intake won't alter the engine's audible nature from within the cabin.
  14. Numerous friction material residues were present at the base of the pan; however, the mechanic who replaced my ATF and filter noted that the interior of the gearbox appeared fairly pristine.
  15. The ATF level is accurate and has been verified. The technician who performed the most recent examination of the vehicle informed me that there is certainly an issue with the valve body, and it is highly probable that the clutch packs are also exhibiting wear. This remains a hypothesis, as the vehicle has yet to undergo real-time data diagnostics; however, based on the observed symptoms, numerous individuals have indicated that fixing this gearbox might not be financially viable.
  16. The gearbox exhibited this problem prior to the fluid replacement. I utilised authentic Mercedes ATF and fitted a completely new genuine Mercedes connector plug. The antiquated plug contained gearbox fluid. Furthermore, the gearbox pan utilised bolts that differed from the original equipment manufacturer, and the drain bolt was stripped — evidently, an unskilled individual had previously serviced the gearbox prior to my acquisition of the vehicle. I have possessed the vehicle for approximately one year.
  17. Greetings to all, I require guidance concerning the gearbox of my E270 CDI. Herein lies a comprehensive account of the problem along with supplementary information that may prove beneficial. Vehicle Identification Number: WDB2110161A309273 The issue at hand: When the transmission is cold, the 1–2 shift can occasionally be quite abrupt and occurs rather early, approximately at 1600–1700 RPM. Nevertheless, upon the gearbox reaching temperatures of approximately 80–90°C, I encounter a distinct issue between the 2nd and 3rd gears. As the vehicle nears 2000 RPM, the RPM begins to surge autonomously, suggesting a potential loss of hydraulic pressure or slippage in the gearbox, even in the absence of further throttle application. The RPM experiences a minor increase and oscillates for approximately 2–3 seconds before the gear ultimately engages. It appears that the gearbox is unable to maintain pressure or execute a seamless 2–3 shift until it "engages" and finalises the transition. The ATF was substituted 500 kilometres prior, along with a new filter and connector plug. My inquiries: Should I disassemble the gearbox to examine the valve body or clutch packs, or would it be more prudent to seek a quality pre-owned 722.640 unit? What transmissions are compatible with my vehicle? Is my vehicle exclusively compatible with the 722.640 gearbox from the 2.7 CDI? Are transmissions from alternative engines (2.2 CDI, 3.2 CDI, petrol engines) compatible? If they are physically compatible, are they also compatible in terms of electronics and hydraulics? Any guidance or insights would be immensely valued. I appreciate your assistance beforehand!
  18. An extensive narrative, yet the initial pipe has been misplaced.
  19. Transmission cooler line or pipe required. Component Number A166 500 4972 Currently on back order with Merc, with no indication of availability. Any suggestions?
