The question marks are: what is that (on the lower mount)?

Happy you stumbled onto this! -

This device acts as a roll or torque damper. It lessens tremors in the engine and transmission. Specifically, it's a Engine Mount Dynamic Damper. B28V39990 Item Number B28V-39-990 is a superseding session. -

All right, I discovered a different resource that explains it well. The Automatics use this device, which acts as a roll damper. I wasn't sure since the schematics I looked at didn't seem to match the part's actual form. -

Auto is standard on this 2003 Protege5. This next picture is somewhat improved. I need clarification on the red section. Lower Mount Blue is the Blue. The red central bar is nearly entirely pullable out, and it wobbles a great deal. A broken rubber bushing is used at one end. If these photos aren't good enough, I'll take more. -
There seemed to be a loose part on my lower mount. It seems like a damper or tensioner of some kind. The accompanying image has it highlighted for you. Please excuse the low resolution. I checked a Mazda parts catalog, and that specific component wasn't listed as being included with the mount. After looking at a few different parts, I figured I may as well just ask.

rivaling those of other high-end brands. A trusted brand like Sonax or P21S or even Meguiar's is all you need. And if they aren't so bad, you can get away with simply using water and a sponge instead of wheel cleaner. After years of using Sonax, I finally found what I was looking for in P21S non-gel.

Good to know; appreciate the help! I made new contacts in Outlook and sent them to myself in a single email; from there, I exported them to a USB drive as VCalender (.vcf) files. It's simple to transfer contacts from your phone to the car's system. since you point out, it's important to double-check each one, since the address could not be entirely recognized but will still get you to the right general area.

Howdy everyone, Just got my lifelong dream car—a W204 C63—thanks to the recent purchase I made. I'm not a fan of the aftermarket alloy wheels that have been installed on it. I'd want to find a set of her original wheels and give them to her. (you do not need tires) The rear tires are 255/35/18 and the front ones are 235/40/18. Does anyone have a set, or do they have any idea where I may begin searching for one? Sincere gratitude

You will not be able to renew any subscriptions for geolocation, remote locking, or any other features beginning with this year, since all automobiles equipped with a 3G communications module are being deactivated, which includes your 2015 model. This is because Vodafone is gradually eliminating support for 3G. Due to the lack of a viable upgrade route, these services are, sadly, no longer accessible. I had the same problem with my 2016 as well.

I'm just asking if anyone else has a 1976 BMW e12 520i. I can't find any. I found mine in a coach shed with three other old coaches and bought it three months ago. It had been parked there and not run since 1989, even though it had been taken off the road in 1985 and taxed and registered in 1989, but had never been used. It has had only one owner, the owner of the coach company, and has travelled 31,113 miles since it was first made. The car was in perfect shape, but tiny bubbles had formed in the paint where dust had settled. The car has been taken apart and is getting ready to be repainted.The work done so far was just to get it running again. New brakes, seals, and rubbers were put on, but it didn't need them because everything worked fine. After 20 years or so, it was time to replace them.The car started on the first try with its 89-octane petrol (which is amazing), the body was perfect except for some blisters (it would be a shame to paint them), and the engine bay and the inside are both brand new. We're trying to get it going by the end of October. IS THIS THE LOWEST MILEAGE E12 520I IN THIS CONDITION WITH ONLY ONE PREVIOUS OWNER???? ANY IDEA'S GUYS ???

Hello to everyone, I just got a BMW X5, and it has a few problems. I was wondering if anyone could help: 1. The CD Autochanger's screen says "no discs" even though it has a few in it. 2.The back seats of the car have screens, but they don't work. Is there somewhere a master switch? I think these came with the car because there is a TV button near the fans in the back. 3. The lock on the remote doesn't work. The guy said new batteries are needed, but from what I can tell, the keyfob is a locked unit, so not can the batteries be changed? Any help would be much appreciated! Even with these problems, I still love it! Thanks

Read the article at the above-mentioned site, and a nearby garage will install them for you for £50, claiming that it takes around an hour with the vehicle on the four- or two-poster lift. Although I doubt it, a post from the aforementioned page claims that Lates can fix them in 10 minutes for less money than the garage you requested for a quote. Stay away from the garage, I think they are attempting to play tricks on you.

Where can I begin researching helmets?
Motoman replied to Craigbelont's topic in Questions and Answers
Unfortunately, it seems that trackday helmets have no universally accepted standard. To be safe, I recommend selecting a helmet that is authorized for use with "Current" models of racing automobiles. For the best fit, it's a good idea to visit a store where you may try on a selection of helmets. There's a lot more to finding a suitable cap than simply your head circumference. Especially if you need something to wear for the better part of the day without being uncomfortable. -
BMW 330D F30 issue with rod bearings

Could it be re-ground, in your opinion? To my untrained eye, it seems to be too late. -
2010 F01 740i windscreen wash efficacy inadequate
Motoman replied to Motoman's topic in General Discussions
I appreciate this. I'll check this out for sure. However, it looks that the nozzles are all in one component and not accessible individually, based on realoem and other parts websites. Second, I've purchased a new pump strainer because one was already required. But according to ISTA, lubrication is required to cover the gaskets, and when removing the bottle and related components, I did feel some lubrication. Is this a silicone lubricant? What sort of lubrication is this? Thank you! -
2010 F01 740i windscreen wash efficacy inadequate
Motoman replied to Motoman's topic in General Discussions
I poured clear water from a dirty bottle. Can't you dismantle the bottle to clean it? Algae on the headlight & NIVI washer pump filter was simply removed. I removed the windscreen washer pump, blew through the inlet/outlet ends, and it worked. I rejoined the pump's wires, set the input nozzle in a bowl of water, and operated it. It spat a large jet of water, so it works. A wet vac sucked the hose. My air compressor sprayed air through the hose. I reconnected the pump to the hose, placed the inlet in a bowl of water, and operated the pump. Same problem. The hose or nozzles seem obstructed. Should I diagnose or replace the hose? -
2010 F01 740i windscreen wash efficacy inadequate
Motoman replied to Motoman's topic in General Discussions
I appreciate your responses. I have thoroughly examined the nozzles and used a pin to ensure that they are spotless. They appear tidy. The left nozzle appears to be lacking a hose, but when the washers are tested, nothing emerges from the hose barb. The left nozzle on my F11, which is up for sale, has the same barb without a hose. I am aware that it functions, so it must be as intended. The F01's rightmost orifice, the one closest to the container, emits a feeble projectile, whereas the other two emit nothing but weak dribbles. The left and right injectors appear to have disengaged from the hood at the rear (facing the windscreen), but this has no effect on the vehicle's performance. The middle nozzle is almost detached, but that is not my concern. -
Hi all, Acquired a brand-new 2010 F01 740i. During my demonstration drive, the windscreen washers worked properly. However, a few days later, their performance drastically deteriorated, and they now only drip pitifully at the bottom of the windscreen. There is no warning for insufficient fluid, and the headlight and NIVI washers function flawlessly. How should I begin to diagnose the problem, please? Thank you very much!
