Very well, I am grateful.

When I ran a Google search, I got this, which baffled me.

What does the cylinder arrangement look like from the front of a right-hand drive W205 C63 in the UK?

The W211 Xenons' headlights consistently become foggy.
drummer posted a topic in General Discussions
My W211's headlights still fog up nearly annually, no matter how many times I get them trimmed and cleaned to a mirror finish. This is really bothersome; is there a protective covering that can stop it? During the winter, it's noticeably different out in the countryside. Tks -
Brembo brake system that does not need fluid.
drummer replied to drummer's topic in General Discussions
The Brembo Sensify is what? Intelligent "brake-by-wire" technology is what makes Sensify tick. With its digital environment and electromechanical actuators, it does away with the need for braking fluid, master cylinders, and conventional hydraulic circuits. Less Maintenance and Environmental Impact: It Eliminates the Need for Hydraulic Fluid, Pipes, and Bleeding. Individual Control: Unlike a common hydraulic line, each wheel is managed by its own "electronic brain," enabling far more accurate stopping power. Driven by software, the system continuously assesses traction and road conditions using sensors and artificial intelligence, altering the braking force at each wheel in milliseconds. If a calliper dies today, it will set you back a pretty penny. -

You read it correctly; electronic brakes are on the way.

I am relieved that you were able to resolve the issue with your tires, while I am sorry to hear about it. The fact that you could test drive a CX-90 for an extended period of time is fantastic. I can't believe you traded in your Lexus for a CX-90. Never test drove a Highlander or Grand Highlander, and there weren't any for sale in my area, so I opted against purchasing one. Looking back, I think the ride quality would have been too soft.

Salutations everyone, 2016 Bluetec W212 (S212 family) waggon. Every few weeks, you can see the engine management light and limp mode turning on. Fault code: mass air flow. The little copper sensor had a lot of black carbon deposits, so I removed it and cleaned it with MAF cleaner. After that, I used the OBD scanner to clear the error. After then, everything was OK for a while, but it eventually returned to its previous state of malfunction. I immediately went into limp mode after installing an aftermarket sensor. I hastily reinstalled the previous one. When I accelerate quickly, the engine management light and limp mode appear. Extra miles on the highway. almost 220,000. Have you any idea? Who makes the EGR/DPF/Turbo/MAF sensors? I'm merely a passionate novice. Having owned it since new and diligently attended to all repairs and maintenance, I am hoping to keep it running. It has been well-maintained and has no other issues. I am looking for some experienced advice.

Truthfully, this is the greatest place to enquire. As the emphasis shifted to the state.

Inspect your vehicle following maintenance or repair.

Did you verify the car's mileage prior to entrusting it to them and upon retrieval? If it was possessed for several weeks, it may have been utilised as a runaround or courtesy vehicle by individuals who exhibited negligence in their driving. -
Beautiful automobile; I have never encountered one in that hue. Unsatisfactory photographs.

My device has been inoperative for several months, and I have been informed that it requires the latest telematics module and that the antenna is defective and necessitates replacement. I have not pursued it and can manage without it rather than expend many thousand pounds on a replacement.

Thank you, I will proceed accordingly.

I seek assistance in installing a 10.25-inch Apple CarPlay screen in my F22 and require information on available possibilities. I am concerned that the integration of a new Android screen may compromise the sound quality of my Harman Kardon speakers. Are there any options for sound amplifiers that do not require an aux connection, since I wish to avoid wires coming into the armrest?

Regrettably, it might be attributed to various factors, and the potential explanations are numerous without direct observation. It may be crank pressure. It is possible that with only 1.5 litres of oil in the vehicle, the oil in the turbocharger has been degraded, resulting in a blockage of the drain line. The unlubricated turbo may have compromised the turbine side seals. It is often more economical to rebuild or replace a turbocharger than to pursue seal leak repairs, as seen in nine out of ten instances. If the pressure is sufficiently high to expel oil from the hot side, I would also anticipate observing leaks from the valve covers or the rear main seal.
-
If the crankcase pressure is sufficiently elevated to obstruct the oil drain line or induce back pressure through it, it is not uncommon for a leak on the turbine side to occur as a result of crankcase pressure stemming from a severely compromised PCV system.
-
The play in the shaft is attributable to the bearings, not the seals. The seals may deteriorate while the bearings remain in satisfactory condition. The compressor side seal may remain in satisfactory condition while the turbine side seal, leading to the exhaust, has deteriorated significantly. If there are significant quantities of oil in the exhaust, it is unlikely to be due to PCV blow-by and may indeed explain the initial depletion of engine oil.

Manual stimulation? 💪

The spring on the driver's side has fractured.
drummer replied to WiseSage's topic in General Discussions
Shock absorbers do not influence ride height; I recommend replacing both front springs as a best practice. If the shocks are not in optimal condition, it is advisable to replace them; however, if they are satisfactory, just the springs should be replaced.
