  1. Just so you know, it's a Brabus BODO that's listed for £1.1 million.
  2. Is the frequency of gearbox fluid service up to the most recent one something you are aware of? Issues might develop if these boxes are not serviced thoroughly at the prescribed intervals. It could be wise to get it checked out by a professional who deals with these transmissions frequently.
  3. Exactly the same model with 36,000 miles on it just like this one. This money pit will soon be dumped.

  5. I initially overlooked this discussion. You made the correct decision; supplying power to the vehicle through the OBDII port is feasible but perilous and may harm the car. Did you utilise the eyelet connector for your CTEK? If not, they merit adjustment. Moreover, utilising a Magcode Powerclip facilitates the most efficient and effortless battery charging process. Standard equipment on luxury vehicles.
  6. Fuel may not necessarily escape when air enters. An 'o' ring seal, located in the fuel filter's center, can serve as the ingress point. I was able to diagnose that using PTFE tape. It is true that a fuel pump can release air. Repair kits have been utilised on that. Engine that was much older, though. A leak off kit was rigged for the 646. Some tubing and plastic soda bottles from a dollar store made up the bulk of it. Clear and efficient.
  7. Basic possibilities. Air leaking in, most likely through the fuel filter. Too much evaporation.

  9. Someone has probably messed with the abs wheel speed toothed ring or the sensor that measures it. Follow this link to get a detailed walkthrough of replacing a sensor, complete with plenty of high-quality images to help you identify each step. A fault light will go out if it's even slightly misaligned.
  10. Looks like you might want to think about getting new lenses. It doesn't appear like you can get aftermarket ones and they're not too hard to swap out. A friend of mine does this every year because the headlights on his fiesta become fogged up. Considering that a dealer would charge £599.00 for a new set of xenon headlights, I'm not sure it would be worthwhile to have new ones.
  11. A defective injector caused my first Evoque to have a rough idle until it warmed up. Perhaps comparable?

  13. If you already own an Audio 20, you may upgrade it with a kit that includes a reverse camera.
