  1. formerly priced at £99 for any updates, regardless of warranty status or recall work.
  2. It is not just concerned with the worth of the alterations. The insurance company may categorise an individual who has made certain modifications as a 'boy racer' and hence a greater risk, which I am convinced the original poster is not.
  3. The configuration was same on the VW T4 Transporter; the driver's side was 'landscape', while the nearside was 'portrait'.
  4. A superior option involves cutting a piece of metal from a discarded beverage or soup can to use as a shim for the battery post. Adjust the strip's width to match the height of the battery post. Adjust the length to accommodate the space required between the post and the terminal.
  5. The battery terminals are conical. Ensure that the terminal is positioned at the widest section of the post; otherwise, it will not achieve complete tightness. Occasionally, it is necessary to loosen the terminal nut and slightly open the terminal to enable it to descend completely down the post.
  6. This implies that all front sensors are nonfunctional, indicating a potential malfunction in the connection to the control unit, potentially a damaged cable. The reason for the bumper replacement is not specified, although it is likely due to a frontal collision, suggesting that damage may be concealed and not limited to the bumper itself.
  7. A fractured nozzle holder cap may result in leakage at the injector foot, perhaps leading to subsequent black death. Rear wells are inferior due to the drain line's positioning towards the rear of the engine, which I suspect is somewhat slanted.
  8. OTA updates fails so much on last time
  9. I would not engage in such endeavour. Oil has a far longer lifespan than 30,000 miles, therefore £560 is too high. Conserve your finances; the issue lies not with the oil. I operated a 530d equipped with a six-speed automatic gearbox. Sytners conducted a recall, disconnected the battery cable for many hours, and upon retrieval, the vehicle operated much better. As previously said, just drive it for over 500 miles, and unless it is severely damaged, the gearbox will self-correct.
  10. 50% chance excluding the possibility of the coin falling on its edge
  11. If it is at 0V, I believe you are expending your efforts in vain. The battery will not recuperate. While it may ultimately display a reading of 12V, its functionality will be compromised, resulting in little capacity.
  12. As stated in pages 8-44 to 8-47 of the handbook, the fuse responsible for the baggage power outlet is labelled "Power Outlet 1" and can be found in the fuse box located in the engine compartment. It is marked in yellow for easy identification. Power Outlet 2 is located next to it and serves as the front power outlet. Both fuses have a rating of 20 amperes.
  13. That does not seem to be the underlying reason. Thank you, however. Are there any further concepts or notions?
  14. Thank you, I will attempt that and then provide you with an update.
  15. While I cannot be completely positive, there is indeed a possibility. What would be the significance of that?
  16. Issue with BMW 3 Series Now please bear with me since I am not familiar with the technical aspects of an automobile. I own a 2014 BMW 3 Series diesel car with a manual gearbox, and it has lately been experiencing issues. The issue initially arose during gear shifting, particularly when transitioning from 3rd to 4th gear. It gave the sensation of unintentionally engaging the brakes, although this occurred only on a few occasions. Subsequently, while driving on the motorway, the vehicle abruptly decelerated from 90mph to 40mph, resembling the effect of an emergency brake or engine braking at excessively high revolutions per minute. Currently, the issue persists consistently anytime I exceed a speed of 40mph, to the extent that it gives the sensation of being on the verge of losing control. The manual gearbox has not been shifted or impacted, and there are no fault messages or dashboard lights after connecting the computer. Has anybody encountered this phenomenon or had any insights on its nature?
  17. I fail to get this trend – the purpose of DRLs is to enhance your visibility, so why would one choose to lower it? Style takes precedence over practicality.
  18. If you believe that the opportune moment has arrived, proceed with the sale. Abstain from doing so unless the circumstances dictate differently. In my opinion, I would recommend selling the automobile in the next Spring season when there is a high demand for car purchases.
  19. Dispose of your original equipment manufacturer (OEM) exhaust system by relinquishing your aftermarket sports exhaust to the subsequent owner.

  21. PB4X4 is an alphanumeric code. What is the nature of the fronts? Are they cool? It should be the opposite way around, with the front being rather cool.It seems that the back part is responsible for most of the effort.It may be worthwhile to consider joining these as well.
