In all honesty, it has had an impact. The responsiveness of the throttle has been increased, and any irregularities in its performance have been eliminated. Additionally, it seems that the system operates more efficiently. I would highly suggest this.

I did not thoroughly research this matter before to purchasing the vehicle. I must own my fondness for the Jaguar, as it stands as the most exceptional automobile I have ever had. Engaging in occasional drives with this vehicle does not prove to be disagreeable. It is a source of frustration when such occurrences do place. I have just taken my automobile to undergo the terraclean procedure and will monitor its performance over the next weeks. I would want to express my gratitude to everyone for providing valuable information.

Thank you for providing the information. I have observed that after using a diesel particulate filter (DPF) cleaning, I have been consistently seeing the performance restriction indicator light. After the replacement of the gasoline filters, the performance of the vehicle improved significantly. However, the same issue resurfaced afterwards. I am curious to know whether the flushing process will effectively remove any accumulated debris that has been dislodged by the diesel particulate filter (DPF).

I appreciate the provided input. Upon first examination, the subject matter seemed favorable. However, in order to ascertain its efficacy, I sought to get insights from those who had personally experienced it. I believe I will proceed with scheduling my appointment. Greetings

Has any individual within this forum community ever undertaken the application of the terraclean procedure on their Jaguar vehicle? I am contemplating the possibility of pursuing this endeavor and would want to inquire about the advantages and disadvantages associated with its implementation. The available evaluations indicate positive reception and highlight its efficacy in enhancing fuel efficiency, reducing emissions, and promoting overall engine cleanliness. I would want to express my gratitude to everyone.

The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) located on the windshield provides more accurate information.

One notable aspect of this situation is that the individual in question had little knowledge about Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Their typical response to inquiries is to suggest using a garage for assistance, indicating a lack of expertise. Consequently, it can be inferred that their role is mostly that of a participant who often engages in contentious discussions inside online forums. It is advisable to disregard and refrain from engaging with the aforementioned individual.

It is fairly uncommon for individuals to lack knowledge about specific model numbers, since many individuals tend to rely on visual cues, such as examining the rear end of a vehicle, to discern the make and model of an automobile. I am acquainted with an individual residing in the vicinity who is contemplating the acquisition of an almost pristine C350 vehicle from a dealership. The documentation provided by the dealers that I saw yesterday only identified the vehicle as a C350. It is quite likely that if they proceed with the transaction, they will continue to perceive and designate it solely as a C350.

Hello everyone, I am now engaged in the restoration of a 1994 E31 automobile. Although I have successfully achieved the restoration and the vehicle is now operational, I find myself in a predicament whereby I want a rear ABS Sensor with the specific component number 34521181913. I have attempted to contact the primary dealership, but it seems that there are no available options inside the United Kingdom. A local BMW dismantler has informed me that Euro Car Parts does not own the desired items either. I placed an order for a product originating from Germany, but, the transaction was afterwards cancelled. Additionally, I made another purchase from the United States in April, however as of now, the item has not yet been delivered. I am now experiencing a dearth of ideas and would really appreciate any assistance that can be provided. We express our gratitude for your input.

S204 C63. Normal to have mismatched door sill plates?
Craigbelont replied to ML350_Colin's topic in General Discussions
There is no cause for concern. In accordance with the principle of Occam's razor, the most straightforward explanation is often the most accurate. It is likely that the object in question had an accidental detachment or incurred damage, prompting the owner or dealer, who is inclined to economize, to substitute it with a readily available, inexpensive alternative. The concept at hand can be described as straightforward or uncomplicated. -

Craigbelont replied to ML350_Colin's topic in General Discussions
If the aforementioned embossed stainless kick plates like those installed on my S204, it is worth noting that they exhibit subpar quality. The driver side mirror has detached on two occasions and shown susceptibility to damage. The metallic material has resemblance to kitchen foil. Regrettably, it must be acknowledged that the ones present on Mrs. Spiky's SEAT exhibit a higher level of quality. Furthermore, these objects emit illumination throughout nighttime hours. -

Please relay a note to Jason, who is now traveling extensively around the nation. Despite being physically distant, he has successfully attended to my needs, despite the fact that I reside about 400 miles away. -

It is seen that individuals associated with Volkswagen (VW) use the aforementioned products, as shown by the mention of the brand name in a forum frequented by the user. -
I noticed that the SD1 kinds had an overflow bottle; do you? The white, see-through ones make sure the radiator header tank is always full with coolant.

Find a mechanic that has a gadget that can detect exhaust gas in the coolant. You say you have a coolant leak?

An experienced repairman could perform things right there. This is something I have done to the inside of a BMW mini. Excellent color matching is possible. However, without visuals, we can be completely off the mark.

The question marks are: what is that (on the lower mount)?
Craigbelont replied to Motoman's topic in General Discussions
Not that I can tell much from the photo, but I don't see anything that seems loose. Tell me about the automobile you drive. The year, make, model, and powertrain choices would be very useful. -
Tuning Concerns for the C43: Engine Timing
Craigbelont replied to p00rmansp0rsche's topic in General Discussions
You won't be in danger at any point. Do a dyno run before and after the modification to see how much power you gained and whether or not the shift points are acceptable. -
Tuning Concerns for the C43: Engine Timing
Craigbelont replied to p00rmansp0rsche's topic in General Discussions
It's possible that the automobile is overboosting, which would cause the engine control unit to reduce the boost pressure. Do you have anything (like Carly or another diagnostic) that can measure how many pounds per square inch (psi) of force the turbo is exerting? If you are located anywhere around Essex, you are welcome to use mine. Personally, I would remove the map and do either GAD or MSL adjustment. -

What are your thoughts on the new Corolla Estate?

Even though the Toyota e-CVT might be a technological win, how does it feel in terms of power delivery, safety, and passing? Does it give torque quickly? like a dsg with buttons, or do the revs go up and the power comes on slowly? Plugin octavia (and even leon/passat phev) will continue to charge from the gasoline engine and can use the plugin away from home/holidays/free supermarket trips - therefore, it is more versatile and depreciates less.

Turns over but will not start; battery?
Craigbelont replied to Matt865's topic in General Discussions
The 12v supply to bypass the ballast system for start up should be a little wire coming to the coil from the starting solenoid; use a test bulb to see whether this wire is connected to the solenoid's centre pole. -

Craigbelont replied to Matt865's topic in General Discussions
If cranking is normal, jumpstarting should rule out the battery, which appears to be the case. begin at the outset and determine if sparking is occurring; if so, is the problem fuel-related? Are the inserts moist or blackened? Work first on getting it to start, then on stopping while travelling.
