The adaptive main beam has ceased functioning.
Screwdriver_1 replied to Screwdriver_1's topic in General Discussions
Indeed, I traverse unlit roads each morning at a sufficient speed, necessitating the activation of the high beam, as occurred earlier this year. -

Indeed, I have travelled at a sufficient speed; it is rather peculiar. -
Hello, my adaptive main beam has ceased functioning. It operated correctly at the beginning of the year during gloomy mornings and early nights, but it is no longer activating. The stalk is positioned forward, displaying the 'A' on the instrument cluster, with no warning lights illuminated on the dashboard indicating a defect. Has anybody else seen this or have any recommendations about the potential cause of its failure to activate? Furthermore, my primary beam operates manually, indicating that the problem is not related to the bulb.

That is the DPF protector; they also provide a diesel additive for injector and DPF cleaning, but I believe you were referring to this one, which is applied every 2000 miles.

Are you referring to this, please? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Liqui-Moly-Diesel-Particulate-Protector/dp/B00VP4WZ2Q?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1

2016 Tesla Model S (Facelift) Category S (Salvage)

... irony. He was jesting due to the absence of access to the purported FSD in the UK, and definitely did not anticipate use their vehicle as a Robotaxi. This is unrelated to salvage. -
Reinstalling them may be rather challenging; I have found that elevating the jack and positioning the engine at an angle facilitates reassembly without interference from the engine mounts. since it approaches alignment, position yourself underneath and manoeuvre the engine to insert a bolt on each side. Do not tighten these, since they serve just as guides to facilitate the engine's movement for the first engagement of the shaft into the clutch plate. It may be necessary to rotate the crank slightly to contact the splines.

I am really satisfied with the headlight performance of my current Kias, both equipped with Intelligent Front Lighting, and I do not experience being flashed. The Sportage has more seamless beam position changes and exhibits less striations.

Then it is returned to the merchants.

I used my mine earlier today. With the ignition on, it functioned flawlessly. As suggested by @br1anuk, test the typeface to ensure its functionality.

It is advisable to replace the rings and stem seals if you are capable of doing so. As for the bearings, it is up to your discretion, but since the bolts are already removed and the shells are inexpensive, it is recommended to replace them unless they are in perfect condition. Additionally, it is recommended to disassemble the oil pump to check for barrel scoring and measure the cam journals. If the head journals are also scored, it can cause the oil light to come on when the engine is hot. It i

What was the initial horsepower measurement prior to the use of E85 fuel and the tuning modifications? -

Automatic gearbox for a 2010 Mini Cooper S.
Screwdriver_1 replied to jimmy47785's topic in General Discussions
Are these vehicles equipped with drive-by-wire technology, meaning there is no physical cord between the accelerator and the throttle body? I have little information about second-generation automobiles. In most cases, if the engine does not immediately react to the throttle, it is advisable to investigate potential issues such as a malfunctioning Throttle Position Sensor (which may have many sensors), a contaminated Mass Flow sensor, or a Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor, depending on the specific components installed in the vehicle. The presence of noise on the CAN bus may result in the computer experiencing additional processing time as it attempts to differentiate between genuine and false inputs. If you want to avoid taking your vehicle to a repair shop, it may be justifiable to invest in a high-quality diagnostic scan instrument. -
Automatic gearbox for a 2010 Mini Cooper S.
Screwdriver_1 replied to jimmy47785's topic in General Discussions
Does the automobile include an Auto Start/Stop system that automatically turns off the engine when the brakes are engaged? Is the Malfunction Indicator Lamp illuminated? It may be worthwhile to do a check specifically for BMW codes in order to identify any potential issues. It is important to note that not all problems will trigger the illumination of the Check Engine (CE) light. -

Does the engine experience an increase in revolutions per minute before the gearbox engages? -

If you have sufficient storage capacity, it certainly doesn't have any negative impact, but as said, it doesn't have significant value. Is it in a state of immaculate condition? -
The error code P06A8 has been detected.

At the outset of the conversation, I failed to specify that my car is an eD4, which is a 2-wheel drive vehicle. -

Thank you for your assistance. I will have the sensors inspected. -
The error code P06A8 has been detected.
Screwdriver_1 replied to Screwdriver_1's topic in General Discussions
Indeed, it seems that the issue is mostly associated with automatic vehicles, although my automobile is equipped with a manual gearbox. The issue manifests only during acceleration and ceases when the vehicle is turned off, kept idle for a little period, and then restarted. -

Screwdriver_1 replied to Screwdriver_1's topic in General Discussions
Greetings, I appreciate your response. I have thoroughly examined the explanations for p06A8, however, the error number is the only information provided without any indication of which sensor could be responsible for the malfunction. -
I own a 2016 2.0 manual Evoque and I am seeing the trouble code P06A8. Initially, there were other codes, but the P06A8 has been there from the start. The vehicle initially had electronic gas recirculation (EGR) fault codes, which were resolved by mapping them out. Additionally, there were diesel particulate filter (DPF) fault codes, which were resolved by removing and mapping them out. Both the battery and the waste gate actuator have been replaced. When attempting to accelerate, the vehicle enters limited performance mode. To resolve this issue, switch off the car for around 15 minutes and then turn it back on. The error should be resolved. If you drive the automobile with gentle acceleration and avoid excessive force, the issue may be prevented for a significant duration. I would much appreciate it if anybody could provide any insight if they have had the same or a similar malfunction.

The air conditioning eco mode in my e-niro is much less efficient compared to the usual setting. Is it worth investigating?
