Could you please provide an update on your progress with regards to the malfunction of your vehicle's engine? I am interested in knowing whether you have made any headway in resolving the issue, as I am now contemplating the extraction of my own engine within the next week or so. Additionally, I have just acquired an engine hoist from an online marketplace platform. I have just acquired an engine from an acquaintance, and I am contemplating the prospect of inspecting the internal components of my own engine to assess its condition. Subsequently, I am inclined to engage in the process of attempting to repair and restore it.

I just acquired new knowledge that may provide an explanation for the phenomenon where the settings persist for a little period of time before reverting back to German/LHD, among other configurations. I encountered a depleted battery and sought the assistance of the AA in order to get a jump start, since one was not readily available. A male individual inspected my battery and affirmed its satisfactory condition, but I remain skeptical. Subsequently, he proceeded to use a clamp meter in order to ascertain if any components were causing an excessive discharge of the battery. The automobile was secured by locking it, activating the alarm system, and retaining the clamp meter, which recorded a consistent reading of 8 amps over an extended period of time. Evidently, the diverse components inside the automobile need a duration of up to 10 minutes to complete the process of deactivation subsequent to the activation of the alarm system and the departure of the user. According to an individual, it has been observed that the fuel cap on Volvo vehicles remains unlocked for a whole duration of 12 minutes subsequent to activating the alarm system. After about 10 minutes, the electrical current consumption decreased to a range of 0.2 to 0.5 amperes, exhibiting continuous fluctuations. It is hypothesized that the MMi ceases operation at around that temporal juncture, however it continues to receive power from the energy management module until said moment. This phenomenon might perhaps explain the reason for its temporary retention of settings.

The center console, including the MMI buttons, was disassembled, revealing the absence of a battery in that particular location. During the next weekend, I want to examine the MMI unit, which is reportedly hidden under the dashboard behind or above the glove box (specifically on left-hand drive vehicles). I will provide updates on my progress.

I attempted to engage with East Kent Audi, but, their communication was characterized by a substantial amount of misinformation. I sent the locking wheel nuts for measurement in order for them to get a replacement key. Additionally, I inserted a trim component that I had previously bought into the vehicle's interior and requested their examination of the MMI issue. The service provider performed the task of using the locking nut key and provided an estimated labor time of 3 hours, costing £120+vat per hour, for the installation of a piece of trim. However, upon taking the trim home, I was able to complete the task in a mere 5 minutes. I inquired about the Multimedia Interface (MMI) system, after which the individual proceeded to enter the workshop. Upon returning, they provided me with an unsatisfactory explanation, claiming that they had verified online that my vehicle's software was up to date, despite this being inaccurate. Subsequently, I raised concerns regarding the malfunctioning of my FM radio, which has persisted since I acquired the car. The individual once again retreated to the workshop and subsequently reported that the radio was functioning as intended, attributing any perceived shortcomings to the inherent limitations of the A8 model's radio system. The device fails to receive signals from a specific channel and displays an error message on the VAGCOM interface. I am interested in lodging a complaint with the corporate headquarters of Audi; however, I am unable to locate their official address. I am willing to pay the hourly rate of £120 plus value-added tax (VAT) provided it guarantees a resolution to the issue at hand. Regrettably, it seems that Audi is not demonstrating a proactive approach in addressing my concerns. I have decided to schedule an appointment with an Audi expert in order to explore the possibility of obtaining assistance, since I hold the belief that their level of service cannot be any worse than that provided by the East Kent Audi team. I have a favorable opinion of the automobile; nevertheless, it is worth noting that the hourly labor rate charged by Audi dealers is twice as much as that of Vikings Mercedes, while the level of care provided is just a fourth of what is offered by the latter. I am strongly considering returning to the use of mercenaries. The Multifunctional Multimedia Interface (MMI) undergoes a reset process around 20 minutes after the ignition is turned off. During this reset, the language setting of the MMI switches to German. Additionally, an anomaly occurs in the temperature control system where the driver's side is labeled as the passenger side and vice versa. The vehicle in question is under the impression that it is a German automobile designed for left-hand driving. I have concerns about the potential consequences of receiving a Multimedia Interface (MMI) upgrade, since there is a possibility of encountering difficulties. Consequently, I prefer to have the dealer do the update, as they would be responsible for resolving any issues that may arise. I am unable to comprehend the issue at hand, since it is likely that a significant number of individuals throughout Europe and America are facing a similar predicament. The majority of producers possess the capability to access a collective database that provides information on previously effective therapies for certain illnesses. During my conversation with East Kent Audi, they expressed unfamiliarity with the matter at hand and did not exhibit any apparent concern. It is plausible that the issue at hand pertains to a minor malfunction in the backup battery. However, the lack of concern shown by Audi remains unclear.

Thank you for providing that information. I shall inform you of the outcome of my endeavor. Initially, I opted to bring it to a local establishment in Dartford, consisting of four rings, due to my aversion towards incurring expenses associated with authorized dealership services. Audi has indicated the possibility of doing the upgrade within the scope of the warranty, despite the vehicle being a 2003 model. However, the final decision on this matter remains uncertain. Perhaps the issue at hand is one that the individuals involved are already aware of and should not be attributed to our actions. The language settings of the four rings were first adjusted to English, but were subsequently lost again around 30 minutes after parking. Best wishes on your next update. It has come to my attention that the newer versions of the software include a three-dimensional satellite navigation system, provided that one purchases a disc released after the year 2007. Consequently, this feature may serve as a further benefit, although potentially incurring an additional expense.

My device also exhibits this behavior on the same software build d3-hu6300 02.9.0 0309, suggesting that this particular version may be flawed. My year of birth is also 2003. I have made a reservation for a two-week appointment starting from Friday at East Kent Audi in order to assess the potential resolution of the issue. Have you had any success on your end?

The presence of a covert advertisement is evident.

I obtained an AA membership through my bank account, and they arrived at the cost of 65 units of currency when my Mallory ignition module malfunctioned for the second and last occurrence. The individual has the necessary tools to temporarily modify the vehicle's wiring system and afterwards proceeded to tail me to my residence. One cannot request anything beyond that.

Nice set, although I can tell you're from Liverpool by the missing hubcaps on the Shadow.

, I'd recommend sticking with tried-and-true companies like lemforder, Febi, or TRW instead than Ridex. You're getting OEM quality for a fraction of the price since many of these businesses create them for BMW. Even TRW removes BMW emblems from certain models' control arms by grinding them off.

There will be legal action taken against the dealer if they are unable to repair the vehicle to the customer's satisfaction.

LOL I hate to break it to you, but your Landy (and by extension, your Rover, as this is a Rover forum) looks like it got ill, lost its top, and shrank to the size of a Mgb. LOL...cute picture of the kids though..............LOL

Due to his recent divorce, he has decided to liquidate almost his whole fleet.

Much obliged for the insight. I have a vehicle, but I seldom use it and it sits in the driveway. Same here, but just on the wall-adjacent side of the vehicle. That side of the automobile probably remains wet for a longer period of time than the other.

Because I didn't notice until 2020, it's possible that it was caused by Covid, which is on the rise once again, but it's happened both times I've taken mine in for service at separate dealerships.

If all they did was regas it, then surely they did not engage in any activity that was not authorized......I believe that the system will need a regas after the majority of the work that is done on the AC. If that was the only thing they did, then the bill couldn't have been too frightening, could it? Simply go back, make your case, and keep a level head, and I have no doubt that you will be able to work things out with the least amount of hassle. Edit: Beating me to it was a speedier typist!

I would recommend placing an order for a replacement hose so that you are prepared in the event that the current one gives out again.

Used to be prevalent in Glasgow at football games - mind your vehicle, sir! The fee was a few pennies. The more considerate response to 'no thanks' was to inquire if the item could blow up tyres.

A professional shouldn't need more than one hour per side. I haven't done the procedure without the arms in a long time, but the more the bushes wear, the simpler they fall off. With the correct lubrication and a pry bar, new ones aren't that difficult to fit around the arms.

I have just acquired a solid state system that will, in the not too distant future, be offered for lease to interested parties.

Made the front pivot suspension like this, with a single bolt going through this angle and down through the "L" part of the frame. I drilled a second hole in mine and used a second bolt. This will at least stop the wheel from turning. Use bolts that are at least 8.8 mm long, and IVA requires that at least two holes show through lock nuts. You can weld this bracket, but you have to do it after the lower axle has been properly shimmied. This gap is different from car to car and even from side to side.

Poster123 Thank you buddy. They must be in the right place because the car was driving fine before, but there could be a split somewhere. Is it enough to just look at something?

Cleaning maf and map sensors does not imply that they are functional.

Thank you for your advice, buddy. I did take a quick look at the vacuum pipes I worked on, but I didn't make any changes.

Hi All. I'm new here, so if anybody can assist, that would be great. have an M47 engine in a BMW 120d. It has the EGR, Swirl flaps, and 02 sensor engine management lights on. The solinode that controls the hoover egr was not holding hoover, so it was changed. The hoover egr has been cleaned out. No better still. Swirl flaps on the removed intake manifold were checked, and they all moved without any issues. It has through a solenoid test, holds hoover and functions as it should. Also passing inspection was the flap actuator. cleaned map and Maf sensors. There were no boost leaks found despite a search. The car handles OK, but the turbo seems lifeless and has no genuine power. Please assist.
