  1. The gasoline filler cap handle must be positioned horizontally for the flap to shut correctly.
  2. Is this a listing from Copart?
  3. Undoubtedly, any further efforts you do will enhance the situation. I replace the sump ATF annually (£28) by extracting it via the dipstick tube and replenishing it in the same manner. I subsequently replace the filter every 30,000 to 35,000 miles.
  4. Indeed, you may extract fluid from the sump, perhaps yielding just over 4 litres. Subsequently, replenish with 4 litres, then either take a drive or use the engine before draining again. Finally, remove the sump and replace the filter as you would during a gearbox service.
  5. I am quite satisfied with my Classic Additions cover; after three years, it continues to keep the vehicle completely dry and is perfectly breathable, as previously stated.
  6. I would retain it. It seems that you have cared for it, and in return, it will care for you. As previously said, additional oil changes are beneficial, along with servicing the gearbox, particularly if it is automatic, and replacing the rear differential oil.
  7. An email to CEO Paul Philpott [[email protected]] is warranted to address the subpar service from one of their licensed dealers.
  8. The sole vacuum pipe on the 2011 model is designated for the EGR bypass; both the turbo and EGR valve are electronically controlled.
  9. Initially, specific engine data will be beneficial. A comprehensive scan with BMW-specific equipment may uncover issues that generic scanners cannot detect. Also live data check may uncover possible difficulties
  10. Thank you for your assistance ianwh4 ; I was doubting my sanity when I was unable to locate the car settings on my phone.
  11. I have reviewed my settings and can only locate the option to activate or disable the adaptive main beam. I appreciate your proposal, anyway.
  12. I have not unplugged the battery at any point. I have adjusted the stalk forward and backward to test its functionality, but it remains ineffective. The windscreen is consistently clean, since I get the vehicle washed often, and there is also no new windscreen installed.
  13. Indeed, I traverse unlit roads each morning at a sufficient speed, necessitating the activation of the high beam, as occurred earlier this year.
  14. Indeed, I have travelled at a sufficient speed; it is rather peculiar.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. Are you referring to this, please? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Liqui-Moly-Diesel-Particulate-Protector/dp/B00VP4WZ2Q?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1
  18. ... 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.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
