  1. In the past, I had a strong affinity for the 7, since it undeniably possessed a very athletic demeanor. Comparatively speaking, the level of sportiness shown by a vehicle surpassing that of a S class is not very noteworthy. The 7 Series may be described as a sporty and spacious sedan, distinct from both the S Class and conventional sedans. As previously stated, the phenomenon of identity crisis manifests as an individual's struggle to embody many roles or identities, resulting in a lack of proficiency in any one domain.
  2. BMW is now experiencing a state of identity crisis. The sales figures for the 7 series are much lower in comparison to the S class, and there have been reports suggesting that even the LS model has surpassed the 7 series in terms of sales this year. In the past, BMW was considered the preferred option for those seeking a dynamic driving experience in comparison to the S Class. However, BMW no longer fulfills this expectation and fails to match the luxurious qualities offered by the S Class.
  3. It would not be unexpected if the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) maintained documentation pertaining to its scanning activities.
  4. Performing self-diagnostic procedures might potentially provide grounds for the dealer to invalidate the warranty in some jurisdictions. Please transport it to the designated location, MB. The use of the vehicle is not impeded.
  5. The engine in question, namely the 2.1 diesel variant known as om646, is very reliable and durable. The object emits a sound reminiscent to a tractor, however has an enduring capacity to operate indefinitely. Mrs. has a W203 C220 CDI vehicle, whereas I own a CLK equipped with a 270 CDI engine. Based on my analysis, I would choose for the diesel option. The vehicle in question is cost-effective to operate, very durable, and has a coupe body style without a central pillar, which, in my opinion, is aesthetically superior to its convertible counterpart. Additionally, it is equipped with the AMG package, providing an added advantage. The only modification required for perfection is the replacement of xenon lights. Throughout my professional experience, I have gained substantial knowledge and expertise in many tasks related to the 220 CDI. Therefore, please feel free to contact me if you need any specific information or assistance in this regard. I have also created other films that focus on the primary occupations within these fields.
  6. Selecting the optimal choice is advisable, while exercising caution against excessive actions.
  7. In previous decades, older automobile models were equipped with a trim plug mechanism that facilitated the interchangeability of various gasoline grades. I am curious as to whether the original poster (OP) may potentially undergo a remapping process in order to reduce the performance of a system due to prolonged supply challenges associated with the appropriate fuel.
  8. In the event that super unleaded fuel is not easily accessible, I would choose to supplement the fuel with an octane booster.
  9. Does Shell, Esso, Essar, Gulf, or BP have a gas station in your area?
  10. It "probably" won't be a problem, but you should still try to prevent it. Do you not even have access to 97 RON gas? A Tesco gas station is an option since they often have 99 RON.
  11. Thank you for your inquiry. Kindly inform me of any updates or further information. I need assistance with the posterior aspect.
  12. I lack knowledge on the subject matter, but, the response provided may be considered as a valid response.
  13. I visited the dealership today, where the salesperson promptly presented an updated iteration of the service bulletin pertaining to the specific problem I had encountered. Upon venturing outside, the individuals directed their attention towards the bumper, which exhibited signs of cracking on both ends (with my own observation limited to the passenger side). Without delay, they concluded that this particular issue warranted a repair covered by the warranty, citing the occurrence of at least five such instances in the preceding years.
  14. The front bumper of my MY17 Evoque has shown a fracture at its juncture with the front fender. No evidence of collision with another vehicle or any external force has been seen. Upon doing an internet search, I discovered the following information: The communication number assigned to this correspondence is LTB00738NAS3, and it is dated August 15, 2016. The category under discussion is 162200. The topic of discussion pertains to the structural component known as bumpers, specifically in the The user wants their text to be rewritten in an academic style without adding any additional information. The present scenario involves a potential occurrence of cracking in the front bumper cover at the point of contact with the front fender. I am now unable to access Topix. Could you kindly advise me whether there is any information available on that platform that I may direct my dealer to in order to get a warranty replacement?
  15. Apologies, but I must express that this issue caused significant distress for me as well. The overall cost of the repair amounted to $4,000. I purchased a transmission from a salvage yard and just used the mechatronic unit and transmission control unit (TCU). Disposed of the remaining portion. The user's text, "LOL," can be rewritten as "The user expressed amusement
  16. The phenomenon under consideration is programming. The original Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is rejecting it. It is necessary to extract the TCU (Transmission Control Unit) and perform a bench virginization procedure. I had a same issue. Specialized software is required in order to perform the process of reverting a program to its original state, sometimes referred to as "virginizing," and completely erasing all remnants of the previous program.
  17. Is the gearbox capable of engaging the drive mode and other gears, resulting in the movement of the automobile, or does it remain immobilized in the park position?
  18. When discussing the concept of changing the gearbox, are you specifically referring to the process of replacing the transmission, together with the mechatronic unit, with those obtained from another vehicle, as is often used in the United States? If this is the case, the issue arises from a discrepancy between the Transmission Control Unit (TCU) installed in the mechatronic unit and the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) associated with the automobile. Consequently, the TCU must undergo a process of virginization, which involves erasing all existing data, followed by reprogramming the TCU with the correct original VIN information.
  19. Is the garage trying to wash its hands of any blame? The fact that you paid in cash is no excuse for the subpar job that was done for you. If they refuse to cooperate, I will escalate the situation.
  20. In excellent shape Why did we have to do a complete engine rebuild?
