  1. The location in question refers to the point of convergence between the airflow pipe and the airbox.
  2. In order to integrate the new clocks into the vehicle, it is necessary to possess the Software Development Kit (SDK) code. This code is often found in a little plastic tag accompanying one of the car keys. If the SDK code is not available, it will be necessary to seek assistance from Audi for the integration process.
  3. I am unaware of the specific actions undertaken, but I am intrigued to ascertain the details. Disconnecting a sensor on the engine and seeing a failure indication, while also encountering an issue with the tire sensor.
  4. I just had my personal property repaired, but unfortunately, the warranty had already expired, resulting in an out-of-pocket payment of $3600.
  5. This issue need to be regarded as a recall concern. The cost of repairing this issue in a significant number of Evoques is too high.
  6. I purchased a pre-owned vehicle from the year 2016, which exhibited a rip or crack in a consistent position and on the same side. The vendor has promised to rectify the issue. The invoice for the body shop services amounted to a total of $2,000 USD. Was there any comment made about the revision or enhancement of the bumper cover to prevent a recurrence of the issue?
  7. The individuals in question possess a prominent presence on the YouTube platform and, to be equitable, demonstrate a commendable level of expertise in their discourse. In addition, the company offers a diverse selection of BMW components and has undertaken advanced tuning procedures on BMW diesel vehicles, using their exclusive tuning techniques. Thank you.
  8. The first step was examining the auto choke mechanism, which revealed that the coil functioned correctly when subjected to heat. However, I am now contemplating if this observation implies that the auto choke is really operational, considering its reliance on a power source in addition to hot water from the thermostat. It is hypothesized that the power source is used for the purpose of heating the automated choke. If the structure of the choke in question has resemblance to the substantial SUs found in my previous XJ6, it is likely to include a coiled bi-metallic strip. In warmer temperatures, the system disengages and deactivates the choke, whereas in colder temperatures, the choke remains engaged. The power supply potentially originates from a regulated source that operates on a predetermined timing mechanism. This timing mechanism facilitates a progressive increase in temperature inside the strip, therefore leading to a controlled deactivation of the choke. In the event that the engine is at a low temperature and the ignition, perhaps the starting circuit, is activated, it is expected that a voltage of 12V will be present at the terminal in order to facilitate the heating of the bi-metallic strip.
  9. It seems that you have thoroughly explored the available online resources pertaining to the adjustment of a Stromberg 175CD carburetor. Based on the provided description, it is possible that the adjustment of the slow and/or quick idle screws may be misaligned. Does the vehicle possess an automated choke mechanism? Does the proposed solution demonstrate efficacy? Has it been appropriately adjusted? This tutorial provides a concise overview of fundamental concepts.
  10. What is the state or status of the diaphragm around the piston? The occurrence of a minor aperture or rupture is often seen and might give rise to a variety of complications.
  11. No flaps are necessary for the regeneration of my prior BMW diesels (M57, N47, and N57). There are never any DPF clogging problems!
  12. It's important to note that the early n47 manifold is distinct from the n47n manifold. If you need a new cooler, you should do the same.
  13. f you're not concerned with increasing your engine's output, you can save a few pounds by fixing the problem without removing the EGR system; instead, you can just clean the EGR valve and reinstall it onto the spruced-up cooler.
  14. To deflap an N47 engine, just replace the gasket with a 318D model, which does not have the flaps but instead has a blank hole in the manifold. There is no need for a map. First, make sure the cooler's actuator isn't stuck. Next, check the vac pipe and flush the cooler to make sure it's not clogged. In addition, I would purchase a secondhand manifold and thoroughly clean it.
  15. This is just a brief update. The problem was traced to the cam adjusters and a damaged rail guide.
  16. You're falling into his prank. The pad incorporates a wire that serves as a wear indicator. After some use, the pad will wear down to the point where the wire will touch the disc, completing the circuit and turning on the light. You may disable the light by severing it or replacing it with pads that do not contain it.
  17. Oh, my, that's so timeless!
  18. Hello, I had BMW change out the front brake discs and pads, and it seemed to do the trick. The previous owner had them all replaced at BMW, so they were delighted to do it under warranty. Changing the bush in the steering rack eliminated the judder. When it comes to replacement components, I've only ever used OEM BMW parts. I would have replaced them out myself with Zimmerman components if BMW hadn't done it for free under warranty.
  19. Hi everybody, My first BMW, from a private seller, arrived today. Almost everything about my 2016 BMW F31 335d xDrive excites me. I was hoping to get some feedback on a somewhat little but possibly serious problem: The pulsation can be felt through the brake pedal, the steering wheel, and, to a lesser extent, the entire vehicle; it occurs at a frequency of about 3hz, which is significantly slower than the rotation of the brake disc around its axis; it occurs only when the brake pedal is gently applied rather than firmly; it occurs only when braking rather than engine braking or decelerating; it occurs only between 30 and 20 miles per hour; it does not occur when accelerating; it does not occur I hope that wasn't too much knowledge to take in, but I've read a lot about deformed brake discs and have a hard time believing they'd only be noticeable between 30 and 20 mph. I took it to a repair shop, but they weren't very helpful; they said it may be the front or rear brakes or the front suspension. Additionally, I have tried burnishing the brakes by doing 5 consecutive 70-20 strong braking events with no success. It's probably unrelated, however when the engine is turned off and the steering wheel is turned beyond the center point in either direction, a clunk can be heard from the steering rack. If anybody has had this issue before or has any other information, I would really appreciate hearing from you. In gratitude
  20. That's of no importance. Google "FCP Euro," which is a company that is now operating in the United States; after reading about their lifetime replacement promise, you should then question "what's the catch?" During my most recent two trips to the United States, I made several purchases from them; yet, for reasons that are self-evident, I am unlikely to be in a position to accept their offer. What is their secret to success? I'm not sure, but if you want to avoid going to court in the United States of America, you shouldn't make promises of this kind and then fail to keep them. In my experience with FCP, you have to purchase specific pieces and then install them manually on your hard drive. If they get worn out, FCP will provide you with replacements at no additional cost.
  21. Hello, Everyone. A 2015 E220 AMG Night Edition Estate is now in my possession. There is a problem with the middle lid of the console on the passenger side. This is held by a clip that is not very interesting. I was wondering whether anybody else has had this issue, and if so, what steps have you taken to fix it? On the humorous side of things. I made a solemn vow to myself when I was "coming of age" that I would never acquire a vehicle with leather seats, an automatic transmission, or a Mercedes Benz:cool:. I am now the proud owner of all 3 in one, and I adore this vehicle. Many thanks
