  1. Elaborating noun Auto detailing refers to the meticulous cleaning of both the inside and outside of a car, as well as doing small repairs to enhance its overall look. According to the definition, it just has to be free of dirt and not subjected to paint correction or polishing/waxing.
  2. I prefer to clean my automobiles instead of detailing them, since I do not reside in the United States. Is it expected for them to have a glossy appearance?...I have seen that Mercedes offers a range of alternative finishes for its wheels, ranging from a matte appearance to a very glossy finish.
  3. It is commendable that you are not up to date with what is required. It is often easy to postpone or neglect some matters. I believe you need tyres and brakes.
  4. Greetings, friend. I am experiencing the same problem with jerky movements. Have you successfully resolved the issue you were facing?
  5. The gearbox oil has to be changed after driving 20 km.
  6. Begin cleaning the breakers. Subsequently, get a bodyshop to accommodate their needs.
  7. It is essential to ensure that the tyres are inflated to a higher pressure level within the permissible range, sometimes referred to as a 'laden automobile'. Additionally, replenish the gasoline tank with high-quality fuel such as Shell V-Power or BP Ultimate, or alternatively, add fuel additives like Redex, Millers, or Forte.
  8. To address the issue, I recommend placing silica bags in and around the dashboard. Additionally, I would inspect the drains on both sides of the engine bay to ensure they are unobstructed. Given the recent heavy rainfall, it is likely that you have inspected the carpets for moisture. It may be advisable to remove the cabin filter and assess any potential damage. If the vehicle is parked on the driveway, it is possible that a small blow heater, set to its lowest setting in the footwell and powered by the garage overnight, could be used to rectify the issue. If this proves effective, it suggests the presence of a minor leak in the vehicle.
  9. If you locate a nearby garage equipped with a spring compressor and willing to accommodate you, anticipate being billed for one hour of work, regardless of the fact that the task may only need 20 minutes to complete. In my opinion, it would be the most unfavourable outcome.
  10. Thank you, it seems that this was an isolated incident. I have not had any issues since then. It is possible that the time was not set correctly or there was some little issue. However, everything is functioning well now.
  11. Thank you for your response. It seems likely that the explanation you provided is correct.
  12. Thank you for your response. It seems likely that the explanation you provided is correct.
  13. Unlocking the vehicle did not interrupt the charging process, hence the plug could not be released. Although I have planned climate control on, would it prevent the plug from being removed? I was unaware of the existence of a manual release mechanism. I will need to investigate this more. Is the location of the manual release mechanism easily noticeable?
  14. The car's clock is accurately set, correct? The vehicle remained charging even after attempting to unlock it, and it was not possible to disconnect the plug while it was still charging. It seems that there is no "stop charge" option available in the Indra charger or app. However, the feature was available on the Kia App, but as I said before, it was not functional.
  15. Greetings A few days back, I successfully had an Indra charger installed. However, this morning, the charging plug remained attached to the automobile while it was still in the process of charging. I scheduled the Indra application for the vehicle to be prepared by 6am and selected the goal charge percentage using the Kia application. By 6am, the goal percentage had been achieved, but the charging rate was still fluctuating at 1 kilowatt. I attempted to use the Kia application to issue a command to stop the charging process, but, I consistently received a recurring error message stating "unable to halt charging, kindly verify the status of your vehicle." Ultimately, I had to deactivate the Indra charger in order to detach the plug, which was not a great solution. Why does the vehicle persist in desiring to charge even after reaching its target percentage? Additionally, why does the stop charging option on the app fail to function? Do you have any insights on this matter?
  16. Indeed, I have always believed that the general principle is that higher temperatures result in thicker oil, while lower temperatures result in thinner oil, and vice versa.
  17. I like the colour combination, however I wish the wood trim was a deeper tint, such as standard or another finish. While I like vehicles with low mileage, the current mileage is really ordinary for a car of this age, which is about 20 years old. I purchased my first E55K around 9 years ago, and at that time, most of them had already reached 100,000 miles.
  18. Apologies for bringing this up again, but I have a Sandisk 128gb drive formatted as FAT32. I loaded around 100gb of songs, however the vehicle is not detecting all of them. Would it be better to format with NTFS instead? Uncertain about the optimal file format and compatibility of the automobile with file types other than mp3.
  19. That will not resolve an airbag warning light. Most garages will delete it for a little fee.
  20. Thank you for providing this information. I verified it around one month before to the service, and the bar consistently displayed a green colour. This is the lowest level I have ever seen. Is fixing a sensor problem costly?
  21. Any suggestions on the appropriate amount for the top-up depending on the present levels?
  22. Thank you, DSM10000. On Saturday, we drove for 40 minutes, and after checking, the level remained same.
