Audi Arnott Parts for Your Air Suspension?
SkippyTom replied to drummer's topic in General Discussions
I am encountering a similar issue with the air suspension on the right side of my vehicle, whereby it exhibits a tendency to undergo undesired sagging when in a stationary state. Occasionally, I perceive an auditory sensation like a hissing sound emanating from the left side of the subject of interest. I am intrigued by the selective nature of this leakage, as it seems to occur only at the discretion of the source. Nevertheless, throughout the operation of the vehicle, I have seen a recurring issue whereby the front suspensions exhibit a sagging phenomenon. Despite the activation of the air pump system, the suspensions fail to restore themselves to the desired first or second level. This problem persists until the vehicle is brought to a complete stop, at which point I must patiently wait for a minimum of five minutes until the air pump successfully elevates the suspensions back to the desired second level. Occasionally, the pump fails to operate until a significant period of rest is provided. Is it possible that this issue might be attributed to a malfunctioning pump in conjunction with an air suspension malfunction? I am grateful for any assistance that may be provided with the aforementioned issue. -
I have just acquired new ABS pulse speed sensors that I will install as necessary. BMW in Germany currently has rear ones available in its inventory. The informational videos pertaining to the E31 have been very beneficial.

It seems that the original poster (OP) may have been seeking information on the BMW 850Ci model. If the user desires, they may use the connections from the subsequent model, namely the 840ci, and proceed to switch them over. The mounting procedure is same for both variants. If one has an 840Ci, it is my belief that they may be easily obtained.
-
A refund is provided in the event that the product or service fails to function as intended. However, it is advisable to get those components from the subsequent 840Ci model and thereafter exchange the connections.

I have just come upon a pair of items. The eBay listing offers a functional ABS speed sensor pulse generator for many BMW E23 chassis models, including the 733i, 735i, 745i, and 728i. Alternatively, one may attempt to ascertain if there are any variations in the mounting plate and reluctor target ring configuration when compared to subsequent vehicle models. This may be achieved by cross-referencing the part numbers associated with these components. If not, there might potentially be a situation where alternative connections can be replaced in a subsequent version that is more easily accessible. The system consists of a pair of wires, and the specific orientation of polarity is inconsequential. It is inferred that you own a 1995 850Ci. The wheel carriers for the rear axle are identical components used by both the 1994 850 and the subsequent 840Ci models. Consequently, it is imperative that the mounting for the ABS pulse generators remains consistent. The 840Ci has a system of part numbers, which are listed as follows:
-
... specifically, if you retain your previous one for the purpose of joining the wires together. Regrettably, these challenges will increasingly be prevalent in aging vehicles.

This incident occurred to me during the last two days. The estimated cost for the replacement of the bumper amounts to $3500. The downtown Austin office of Range Rover has indicated that this report represents their first submission on the matter. I contacted the aforementioned legal agency, and my spouse is using a plastic glue with the intention of remedying the fissures. This is disappointing. There were no instances of collision, and no damage was incurred to my vehicle in any other areas. I generally refrain from doing extended journeys with the vehicle, but I made exceptions on Monday and Tuesday of the current week. Consequently, it is plausible to consider the possibility of a weight-related concern. The region cannot be patched by anybody. Both Range Rover and another body shop hold the belief that the vehicle in question has been involved in a collision. There is an absence of collision damage. The vehicle is securely stored in both a public parking garage and a private garage, ensuring that unauthorized individuals are unable to approach the front of the automobile. The one factor that seems logical to me is the possibility of it being related to weight. Acquiring a replacement bumper seems to lack practicality since it is anticipated that a similar incident would recur.

There were five instances of fenders that were found to be fractured. Is this the most optimal solution? It seems that my actions may have a negative impact on the sales of the Evoque, since I want to actively promote and inform others I encounter about my experiences with the product. The email address provided by the user is lrweb2@jaguarlandrover I am Evalena, a supervisor at Land Rover North America Corporate. I am reaching out to you in response to your request for a higher-level examination of the matter mentioned before. I made an effort to establish contact; but, I encountered your voicemail and therefore decided to pursue communication by email. After conducting a thorough examination, we have reached the conclusion that we are unable to provide you with financial aid for the repair you have requested. The rationale for this decision was predicated on our failure to identify any ascertainable flaw, recall, or ongoing warranty that would provide financial coverage for the expenses associated with this repair. Although we acknowledge that work has been previously conducted at your local shop, it is important to note that there is currently no existing guarantee for that particular repair. We thus announce the closure of the aforementioned matter. For any further inquiries or apprehensions pertaining to the previously conducted repair, it is advisable to contact your nearby store. Please refrain from making any alterations, omissions, or amendments to the "Subject" section of this email, as doing so may impede our ability to effectively address your issue. In a courteous manner, Evalena B. Customer Relationship Centre Telephone: 1-800-637-6837, Extension 1310153 Fax: 888-410-0938 Email: [email protected] Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC is a company operating in the automotive industry. In response to the query presented, I would want to provide a revised version of the user's text in a more academic manner. Thank you for dedicating your time to provide a response. If you were to do an online search using the term "fender cracks Range Rover Evoque," you would discover that Jaguar Land Rover has issued a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) addressing this issue. Additionally, there are many legal websites that have gathered information for potential legal actions, as well as other forums where individuals debate this specific problem. I own a pair of Evoque vehicles and have had the aforementioned repair on four separate occasions, which included the installation of the purportedly enhanced and non-recurring fender. I was provided with a guarantee that a recurrence of this event would be prevented. The occurrence has transpired once again on both of my Evoques. Thus far, I have had a level of satisfaction with previous fixes, but accompanied by significant inconveniences. It is imperative that you do a reassessment of your refusal and proceed with the necessary repairs on this car once again.

S204 C63. Normal to have mismatched door sill plates?
SkippyTom replied to ML350_Colin's topic in General Discussions
It is quite probable that the Mercedes model was priced lower in comparison to the AMG variant. -

SkippyTom replied to ML350_Colin's topic in General Discussions
If an individual were to be involved in an accident and then have their vehicle repaired by their insurance provider, it is expected that this information would be included in an HPI check. -
Impressive effort, my friend. If I may offer a suggestion, it would be advisable to use a "iron decontamination spray" into the vehicle's paint surface subsequent to the application of the snow foam.

Actually, it looks great

Now that I'm retired, I really need to put in the time to get mine in working order again.

To prevent the "bots" from scraping your email address, I changed it to a 😃:at in your message. Putting your email address online in plain sight is a bad idea. A human eye can see an email address in the picture of the @ symbol even though a computer program can't.

Hoovie has a brand new, fake Maybach.
SkippyTom replied to p00rmansp0rsche's topic in General Discussions
Mercedes-Maybach had its highest sales year ever in 2016, delivering 21,600 cars (+37%) to satisfied customers. Initially, the company had hoped to sell half of all Maybach production in the United States (and not only the East). Japan, Korea, the Middle East, and notably China, where Mercedes-Maybach produced over 1,100 cars each month, were major contributors to this expansion. 1,100 USD per month in China!!! -

It's disgusting, just like all the other Maybachs. -
Completed with success (see previous article).

I appreciate it. When the window was completely wrapped, I wiped it off with white vinegar and a rag on the end of a toothbrush. It was a success!

(S-Class W221, S-350L, 2011) A lot of green stuff (algae?) is growing on the inner rubbers (between the door and the window). These rubbers are securely attached to the windows, and I don't want to risk damaging them by prying them off in order to clean the inside. Is there a quick and simple method to make them black again?

What kind of data should be included on highway signs?
SkippyTom replied to John278's topic in General Discussions
A stay left sign, or even a maintain your distance sign, is a wonderful idea. I usually dislike excessive signage, but I can see the value in it on highways. -
These covered heads are a complete mystery to me. Rather of being brand new, it has 19k miles on its 14-plate.

Can this—whatever it is—be cleaned up? It has a baked-on texture and will not come off with a dry wipe.

Whine about the air conditioner, code W169.
SkippyTom replied to MrGreedy's topic in General Discussions
Most air conditioning sounds are of a low frequency. There are currently discount codes available for ATS. -

Thank you for your response; everything is OK, and I've just had an SBC overhaul.
