  1. It would undoubtedly make a sound. If this is the rubber cushion on the spring It is positioned at the top and bottom of the coil. I will return it, since it requires fitting with the spring removed. A universal option is available, but it necessitates the compression of the spring. If you are doing DIY projects, use caution as they may be hazardous; springs do not tolerate errors. 😉 It would be preferable to compel the one responsible for this to risk their pinkies.
  2. Does the B47 engine model possess an EGR thermostat? Thank you.
  3. Do you believe it is operating at an excessively low temperature, and if so, what do you consider the most effective course of action? Thank you.
  4. Thank you for the information; I was unaware. I examined the hidden menu, and during a satisfactory run, the oil temperature reached 89-90 degrees, while the coolant temperature ranged from 80 to 83 degrees. Thank you.
  5. Hello, my 2015 520D F11 does not reach the temperature shown on the dashboard; it only attains around 80 degrees. Will this be the thermostat, or could it maybe be something else? Thank you
  6. I really appreciate it. The timestamp is 3:36 in the video.
  7. Perhaps I can attribute the tardiness to Kia. 🤷‍♀️
  8. Acquired the EV3 yesterday night, therefore now experiencing an abundance of information. Is there a method to exhibit the date and time on the display behind the steering wheel? I consistently arrive late, and the time shown on the main panel is quite diminutive. Thank you in advance.
  9. It is an inadequate AI bot.
  10. Has anybody driven the X3 off-roader, which is purportedly similar to the European Honda models? Wishing you success in your endeavours.
  11. They almost always fail due to the last turn of the coil fracturing, which has little impact on ride height and is thus easily overlooked. I failed to see them on my wife's 70,000-mile A Class during my pre-MOT inspection, despite being a former tester. In the instance of the A Class and my previous ALFA, the issue stemmed from inadequate spring design; the lower end of the spring was cut square, resulting in a sharp edge that contacted the underside of the subsequent coil during compression. This eroded the paint and began to affect the coil itself, allowing rust to infiltrate until they fractured. If the ends were bevelled, it likely would not occur. The positive aspect was that, being a 2006 vehicle, I acquired a new set of original factory components for just £40, and apart from the removal of the rear wheel, no bolts required adjustment for their replacement, use only my existing spring compressors.
  12. Remember to clean the magnet in the sump pan.
  13. Thank you. I did not see it as very loose, but I had never operated a BMW before, so I was uncertain.
  14. I am considering the acquisition of my first BMW, namely a 2011 3 Series 320d Exclusive with 55,000 kilometres. There is no smoke or noise from the engine; it accelerates effectively in all speeds and operates smoothly. The caveat is that when initiating the gear change, it exhibits strong lateral shaking. A mechanic buddy accompanying me said it may be the flywheel or a mount, while the dealer indicated it might be the gear linkage. Which scenario is most probable?
  15. If your Android phone has gone missing after a recent release, the reason is unknown. I am certain that the settings remain on the iPhone.
  16. https://www.behrhellaservice.com/behr-hella-service/en/Online-catalog-5076.html Lastly, do not disregard breakers yards; my friend visited a yard in Galashiels two weeks ago and saw this. He would have purchased it in its entirety, but they had already received the certificate of destruction and would now just dismantle it.
  17. There are experts on the continent who may be able to assist. Some of them include reconditioned components or produced goods. In an arbitrary sequence.
  18. Interconnect two batteries in a parallel configuration. This will deceive the charger, since it will detect an average voltage over zero, prompting it to begin charging for both batteries. Once the depleted battery acquires a sufficient charge, it may be charged independently. However, a second high-quality battery will be essential for this task.
