  1. Having a company vehicle for work and a fuel card allows me to average just under 200 miles per month in my C-HR. Hopefully, a test drive isn't going to be necessary for quite some time.
  2. Toyota doesn't make anything that I would desire to own right now, but if I were in the market for a replacement for my C-HR, I would give the LBX serious consideration. When equipped with tiny wheels, the LBX can take on an absurd appearance.
  3. Greetings everyone, Please, I need some guidance and assistance. The ABS and ESP lights went off. The osr sensor was identified by my diagnostic scanner. Nevertheless, Google recommended disconnecting After checking the voltage at the wall outlet, the sensor indicated that 11.5 volts should be present. I measured 2.5 volts. I followed the advice on Google and checked the ABS connector beneath the glove box; it read 2.5v as well. According to Google, this might be because AB's unit is malfunctioning or the module plug is rusted. After removing the plug, I checked for rust. I double-checked the power in the same locations as my wife's car and found that it had 11.5v, just as Google had predicted. First thing I want to know is if you think there is an issue with the ABS module. A pre-owned one has been requested as a substitute. 2nd question: can I simply plug in the module without the brake line to test if the light remains off after resetting it? to hear everyone's opinions on the matter. I appreciate it.
  4. In my 2023 diesel 2.2 Sorento, I'm achieving an impressive fuel efficiency of approximately 29.6 miles per gallon, all while cruising in Eco drive mode. I recently chatted with a colleague who owns a Skoda Karoq with a 2.0 engine. Although it's somewhat more compact, it's still quite a sizable vehicle, and he's managing to achieve an impressive 67.9 mpg over the course of a month! I still possess the original Continental Premium tires, which boast a C rating for fuel efficiency. However, I'm curious about the fuel economy others are achieving with their Diesel Sorentos of a similar vintage. What kind of MPG figures are you seeing? Is there something I've overlooked?
  5. Sure, I can. It seems like I'll have to skip MB altogether.
  6. It was a response from D2B AutoParts, and I appreciate it. Does it have the OEM logo or not?
  7. Hello, the previous EGR was causing an engine management light code, therefore my mechanic just installed a new one. The code returned after a short period of time with the new EGR installed 😞 He verified that the electrical connection was functioning properly. Feel free to share any suggestions you may have.
  8. If you're still having trouble with high grip after adjusting the tyre pressures to the correct levels, try checking the vehicle's PDI import center; sometimes vehicles leave with the pressures set to transport, and dealers aren't great at fixing this.
  9. Thanks, man! I figured the M division would find a way to accommodate them in the plant if they were really influential. Thank you for the information about the boost pipe. Do you know where I can acquire one? I will investigate it.
  10. He never used it, but I bought his 2016 M135i nevertheless. My M135i already has a stage 1 remap and an upgraded exhaust, but I'm looking to do some DIY upgrades. I'm starting small, having the wheels refurbed and switching to black badges, but I'm hoping to add an induction kit soon. Has anyone here installed one? I'd love to hear your thoughts and advice on whether or not it's worth it.
  11. Instead of just throwing parts at it, get it diagnosed correctly.
  12. Could you clarify what you mean by "ABS cables"? 🤔
