  1. I appreciate your encouragement. I will do an investigation over the weekend and inform you of my progress.
  2. Thank you. That appears intriguing. I am pleased that was effortless for you; nonetheless, I request you to envision Laurel and Hardy attempting to install a dashcam. The issue is that I do not possess the same level of professionalism as they did.
  3. Following a close miss for which I was not responsible, I resolved to install a dashcam in my MY24 Evoque. I was unprepared to pay the exorbitant official price set by LR, nor was I willing to have Halfords install one, given my tumultuous experience with their installation of a dashcam on my previous vehicle. I took the vehicle to a specialised dashcam firm. The chief fitter expressed his dismay and stated that it was unfeasible to install front and rear dashcams on a MY24 Evoque due to the configuration of the cabin bulkheads by Land Rover. I find it difficult to accept that LR itself installs a dashcam, however it is equally implausible that a specialised company would decline revenue opportunities. Does anyone have any suggestions?
  4. I am curious whether the selling dealer will cover the costs of any modifications necessary to activate the radio, as it is explicitly designated as an import from Japan. Component of the negotiations?
  5. Our energetic family has the keys. The 2006 Toyota Yaris need new front tires imminently. I could easily use any inferior product for the front, but because I just changed the back tires, I feel compelled to choose the same company to maintain uniformity across all four tires. Absence of rationality. Assistance required!
  6. Generally, service managers lack understanding.
  7. Excellent work. All individuals should assemble in a systematic line behind me
  8. Yes, I use the same combo on my vehicles with excellent outcomes.
  9. Activating the traction control light on BMWs is straightforward, particularly if the B58 engine has been modified and the car is equipped with P Zero run-flat tires on cold asphalt. The kickdown programming at wide open throttle on the ZF8 transmission delivers power abruptly, potentially compromising rear-end traction, which, in conjunction with the aforementioned factors, creates a scenario conducive to an insurance claim. The TC may be deactivated if your name is Hamilton or Harris, but for the rest of us, it is preferable to remain in Sports rather than Sport +.
  10. Thank you, everyone. The panic has subsided; I have located a repair kit that has the appropriate O-rings, and it is expected to arrive by the middle of next week at the latest. Motivated to act upon discovering that the specified curing durations for the proposed sealants need several days to attain full strength. I need it to seal about 8-10 bar without delay! Permatex is often referenced as petrol-resistant; yet, it is hard to get in the UK. Thank you, everyone.
  11. Can someone propose a readily available liquid propane RTV in the UK, along with the appropriate material for O-rings that can withstand it? (Viton is capable of sealing, although its performance is suboptimal). The current seals are green in hue, which may assist in identifying the substance. Thank you in advance.
  12. If you are experiencing difficulties with your VIN, consult the dealer, preferably Kia, for guidance on resolving the issue.
  13. Please elucidate the problem you are encountering.
  14. My first aid kit is located in the netted compartment on the left side of the boot.
  15. Mine was contained within a polystyrene box that fits into the square compartment beneath the boot carpet.
  16. I possess a C-Class coupe, however I am uncertain if it will be identical.
  17. Perhaps a trivial inquiry: did you inspect beneath the carpet in the trunk?
  18. This is one you could consider include in your list. Verify the tire pressures, since several reports indicate they are too high in many new automobiles
  19. Similarly, the front spring on my wife's W246 fractured; I replaced it alone with one purchased from eBay. After 35,000 miles, the opposite side remains intact, exhibiting no variation in ride height, braking, or handling. We do not using it on track days; nonetheless, it seems suitable for regular usage.
  20. I see no issue with it, since the insurer may classify the incidence as "information only." You informed them that you were engaged in an accident that did not result in a claim on your insurance or that of the third party, in my opinion. In May of last year, an individual collided with the rear of my vehicle. His car seemed to be significantly damaged, while mine sustained just cosmetic harm. I reported the incident to the insurance company after involving the police, since the other vehicle was uninsured and I incurred no repair expenses. Consequently, the insurance company categorised my claim as "information only." Nonetheless, I presume you must disclose it with your next auto insurance application, and I think the relevant term is five years. If there are expenses incurred, even if paid personally and exceeding xx pounds, and you inform the insurance provider, they may see the situation differently. Enquire with your insurance provider, since their operations may vary about such matters.
  21. There is an aperture in its undertray, esteemed ALFAitalia. There is an aperture in the undertray, esteemed ALFAitalia, an aperture!
  22. Thus far, everything is satisfactory. I hope for your success. As Rasa previously said, many encounter the response "it has been painted before, goodbye," and you attempt to demonstrate that it has not.
