  1. That is quite excellent. To optimise efficiency in the Model 3, maintain a velocity between 20 and 30 mph. Therefore, adhere to secondary roads if that is your objective.
  2. The failure occurring immediately after the patrolman's repair of the passenger footwell renders the BCM diagnosis appear significantly less coincidental. The information regarding the backup fob's location at least clarifies why it was functioning like an immobiliser problem.
  3. https://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?search-alias=aps&field-keywords=car+bluetooth+system
  4. To "forget" the car and reconnect, try resetting CarPlay on your phone. So, you want to make a call from your phone while driving?
  5. Is CarPlay available for your vehicle year?
  6. All three engines had the same plastic oil rings and turned in the same direction.
  7. It's not uncommon for them to all go this route eventually. BMW used plastic-coated metal oil rings, which are terrible. I've seen many cars where the owners have tried stem seals, but the oil consumption remains high. I stay away from bga products these days. These days, FAI is my go-to because it's well-made and just works. It needs a refresh, though, so they can fit better solid rings onto the pistons.
  8. Hi there! I was wondering if you go on regular long trips or shorter ones.
  9. I can't say much bad about the Niro EV4 itself after three years, but the dealer's service department isn't exactly top-notch, so I'm thinking it's time to upgrade. Still, I've decided to get a Leapmotor B10 because of how much it costs and how much value it provides. The only features I'll miss are a head-up display and an opening sunroof, but other than that, it's got everything I need and more. Thanks again for all the advice and assistance; now I'm just hoping to locate a Leapmotor-specific forum; I haven't been able to do so yet.
  10. The vehicle appears to have required merely a DPF regeneration. This is entirely typical, particularly if you predominantly utilise the vehicle for brief trips. If your driving primarily involves brief excursions of 5–10 km and you seldom embark on extended trips, I recommend steering clear of diesel vehicles. Contemporary diesel engines are adversely affected by interruptions during DPF regenerations. This may result in additional complications, such as fuel contamination in the engine oil, AdBlue crystallisation, and various associated problems.
  11. I transitioned from my fully paid 2022 CX-30 to a fully paid 2026 Mazda3 sedan approximately four years after acquiring the CX-30. I experienced no issues with my CX-30 and appreciated it, but I am enamoured with the latest Mazda3 sedan and am eager to acquire one now that cylinder-deactivation has been removed from the 2026 models. The arrival of the 2026 sedans from Japan, likely influenced by tariffs, was an unforeseen advantage. My sole significant complaint regarding the CX-30 is the bulky, unremarkable, and overwhelming matte-plastic cladding and bumper that detracts from the otherwise sophisticated and high-end aesthetic of the automobile. However, it remains my preferred CUV available in the United States.
  12. Make sure the injectors aren't leaking by checking the glow plugs.
  13. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=wheel+bearings&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338181132&toolid=10001&customid=2518X1570512X67a785136684fc646b034c973de8ba14&subId2=15
  14. Fitting the wheel bearing the wrong way around could cause this problem because some of them have the ABS ring built in on one side.
  15. Very well, I am grateful.
