Thank you.

Greetings, everyone. I recently acquired my inaugural BMW 5 Series GT, marking my first experience with the brand. Seeking to acquire further knowledge and provide insights based on my existing understanding.

They would have filed a claim with their own insurance, not mine. Therefore, no excess is anticipated, and ideally, there will be no rise in the premium due to lack of fault. NCB retained. Furthermore, they would incur a penalty for the offence of evading a road traffic collision without exchanging information, which would be justly deserved. The cost is contingent upon whether it is a £50 repair achievable with suction cups and skill, or a £300+ repair due to its complexity and the angles of the body lines.

Affirmative, one hundred percent. I had freshly cleaned the car in the morning and would have noticed immediately when opening the boot to retrieve items. Regrettably, it is quite difficult to overlook.

After parking for a few hours, I discovered a significant dent on the trunk of the car. I successfully retrieved the dashcam footage of my arrival and departure, featuring a different vehicle each time. However, there was no footage captured by Sentry, which was activated with Camera-aware for the entire duration. Consequently, I cannot ascertain whether it was the departing vehicle, the arriving vehicle, or another vehicle that attempted and failed to parallel park. Attempted forensic recovery of the USB drive without success. Considering the dent, I would have expected Sentry to activate due to the motion or even the minor vibration caused to the vehicle; however, it did not. I am disheartened and quite disappointed with Sentry, which I consistently utilise to prevent such incidents and was one of the significant selling points of Tesla, in my humble opinion. It captures trivial recordings of someone merely walking alongside the vehicle on the sidewalk, yet when another automobile collides with me in a parking lot, it seemed disinclined to record... Over the preceding eighteen months, Tessie informed me that the vehicle consumed more than 750 kWh on Sentry mode while stationary. That amounts to practically a complete fee per month without any benefit, which has left me somewhat irate. Are there any indications regarding the repairability of this damage via Paintless Dent Repair (PDR), an estimated cost, and recommendations for shops or mobile services in South London? I estimate approximately £200, which is not catastrophic but remains frustrating when incurred due to a negligent and insensitive driver who departed the scene without leaving a notice.

I just acquired a Kia Sportage with a 71 plate and possess the previous owner's information on the infotainment system. I like to erase this data. Is it possible to deactivate it using the UVO system? Thank you for your assistance.

Alter your course when the radio becomes inaudible and smoke emanates from the engine compartment.

"initial click"? There was precisely one click before a sudden rush of air. I do not intentionally seek to optimize the tank capacity. However, I presume the warning serves as a directive to cease. This is not a caution on the saturation of your footwear. I searched the forecourt for any material to cover the spill, but found none. Utilized many paper towels to absorb the liquid cascading down the side of the Evoque. I expressed my apologies to the lady behind the counter (via the glass window) for the considerable disorder. Her appearance is lethal. I do not support "rounding up" the cost. Some individuals engage in such behavior for reasons known only to them. I used a different gas station than my usual choice. I will certainly refrain from returning there in the future. That is established. For the record, I have never had this problem with any of the approximately 17 automobiles I have previously owned. Only this one. Indeed. This concludes my rant for today. Thank you for your attentiveness and for sharing your insights. Grateful. 😁 Everything is satisfactory. Thoroughly washed the automobile before to the onset of the severe rain.

Am I the only one, or are all Evoques' fuel level indicators calibrated too late? I refueled today, and this is not the first instance of experiencing an unusually rapid pump (or at least that is my rationale); by the time I hear the 'click,' it is already too late! Diesel is already leaking down the side of my vehicle. Substantial puddle on the forecourt. It seems unlikely that they were really impressed. Was also occupied. I made me seem rather foolish. Even with a slower, more consistent pump. Cease immediately at the sound of the click.

I understand it would be costly, but "birds"?

Congratulations, although I regret to learn about your father.

Consider unplugging the vehicle battery for 20 to 30 minutes; this may serve as an effective reset, and it is worth doing.

The one in brooklands!

I have used OnShape (CAD software) for the last three years to design components and items for my coursework, achieving a high level of proficiency; yet, I would find it very challenging to create organic shapes, such as a model dog. However, you might request an AI to generate the STL file for you, maybe use your images as a reference. It may lack exact resemblance, yet it is worth attempting.

Have you used any AI software so far?

Are there two types of glow plugs in our engine? Some are 4.5 volts, while others are 12 volts. Do you currently possess several types of plugs for the engine? I am uncertain if this would have any impact. If you have never replaced the GP relay, it does not have an indefinite lifespan.

I am stripping the vehicle down now, it needs to be in gearbox, clutch or double mass flywheel (if equipped). I will, of course, provide a solution.

Hi! I advise you look at the video. This issue is not related to the clutch; the gears do not disengage. The clutch operates well until the load becomes excessive, at which point it slips.

In the film, the brake pedal is firmly depressed, and the parking brake is insufficient to maintain stability, resulting in considerable torque before "skipping" occurs. Until the time it falters, it seems quite normal, not reminiscent of a deteriorated clutch whatsoever. Has anybody encountered this situation previously?

Greetings! My daughter's seed is malfunctioning. When under strain, it "skips". It is operable just in first gear. It does not resemble a worn clutch in any way; it produces a dreadful noise while attempting to engage, as seen in the video below.

The vacuum-operated lever is positioned high on the driver's side of the heater box. Verify that all connections are secure.

I just repaired my heater box and placed it into the dashboard a few days ago. A vacuum-actuated lever controls the front flap. I am uncertain about what activates it to open or shut. It should regulate fresh or recirculated air. It is evident that rats consider it an ideal location to construct a nest if the previous owner neglects to store the rover in the garden for an extended period.

RR Classic. This is the Classic section of the forum. I am uncertain on P38's.
