  1. I value your response. I will investigate that matter. Thank you
  2. Greetings. I would much value your insights. We own a 316i estate from the 64 plate, which we have had for three years. In recent months, it seems to occasionally lose substantial power for brief intervals when in motion, but only during inclement weather. I had it examined by the local mechanic, and their diagnostic instruments detected no issues whatsoever. I find it difficult to believe that the automobile is experiencing aquaplaning, given the impression of power loss is much more pronounced than that. Furthermore, what might account for its sudden increased susceptibility to aquaplaning? Is it time to sell? Do you have any insights about the situation? Any assistance would be much appreciated.
  3. My 2018 strut gaiters have recently deteriorated. A service bulletin exists, but it pertains to a limited number of cars. My struts are "continental" Q07s, not Q04 or Q05, which seem to be the subject of the recall.
  4. The ECU recognises the sensor malfunction and will default to deploying the airbag during a collision as a precaution. The emulator simulates occupancy in the ECU, causing the airbags to deploy even when the seat is unoccupied.
  5. The sensor deactivates the airbag when a child seat is installed (indicating insufficient weight for an adult) and also while the seat is unoccupied, hence preventing the need for airbag repairs post-collision and reducing insurance costs.
  6. like previously said, listen to the engine like we did before to our obsession with technology and reliance on assistance for every task. an alternative option Consider purchasing an automatic vehicle next time, since this pertains to fundamental manual driving skills. Perhaps you have just begun driving, and are thus in the process of learning? I apologize if this is the situation.
  7. I have not had any issues with mine in the last decade.
  8. Is the diagnostic port the 20-pin round kind situated under the hood?
  9. A BMW-specific code scanner may be worth considering.
  10. proprietorship I am certain you will find it enjoyable and have several joyful moments.
  11. Does this also occur in petrol engines? I am considering a 520 SE Touring with 37,000 miles, or should I purchase an E-Class? 😀
  12. RSPA stands for Remote Smart Parking Assist. In alternative variants, such as the EV6, the vehicle is capable of autonomous parking. Regrettably, the EV3 only moves forward and backward. Extremely convenient for manoeuvring in and out of confined parking spaces. This may be accomplished with the key fob while positioned next to the vehicle.
  13. ccNc denotes a connected automobile navigation system. The infotainment system, which includes the map and interface. The large display in the centre. Indeed, your vehicle has one. LFA = Lane Follow Assist (the vehicle autonomously navigates the roadway, executing turns around curves, typically applicable on highways) LKA is for Lane Keep Assist, a feature that tries to maintain the vehicle's position inside the lane by exerting physical nudges on the steering wheel. HDA = Highway Driving Assist (the vehicle autonomously operates on the freeway, maintaining distance from the preceding vehicle, steering, and centring inside the lane). All the aforementioned items ACC stands for Adaptive Cruise Control. The vehicle will maintain the predetermined pace, decelerating when a car is ahead and accelerating when the path is unobstructed. Excellent for traffic. Regen, iPedal, Auto = terms you may encounter. Regen refers to regenerative braking. The vehicle will regenerate energy when braking. Replenishing a minimal charge in the battery. Three levels may be established, with 1 representing the least severe and 3 denoting the most severe. iPedal functions identically to the aforementioned regenerative braking, with the added capability of bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, so facilitating one-pedal driving. The vehicle will autonomously determine the amount of regenerative braking based on navigation data and the presence of a preceding vehicle. The effectiveness is undetermined. The vehicle will use regenerative braking when you approach a roundabout. That is all I can contemplate at 11 PM. Simply request those you are unfamiliar with. The majority are amicable in this vicinity.
