Regarding the aforementioned prices: The prices for different quantities are as follows: - 30,000 units cost £166.98 - 40,000 units cost £300.02 - 50,000 units cost £167.04 - 60,000 units cost £357.00 Are you implying that the sum mentioned covers the expenses for the repair of the battery coolant drive belt and all the specialised fluids particular to Kia?

It seems that one or two individuals have misconstrued my message entirely. My statement was that the tasks mentioned in the service schedule had the potential to be executed by almost anybody. I also have an aversion to words such as "CHECK various items" due to their lack of specificity, leaving room for ambiguity and the possibility of overlooking some items without any means of verification. My encounter with a certain Kia dealer left me with a negative impression, as it seemed that the practice of upselling was ingrained in the company's culture. Consequently, I now have reservations about the service I could get in the future. In addition, I have doubts about my faith in any organisation that has GB News as the default station of their television inside the client waiting room.

Although my service is not scheduled until June, I would appreciate if someone could provide me with an estimate of the expected cost. Upon reviewing the components included in the service for which you are charged based on the designated plan, it seems that there is no task that cannot be performed by an unskilled mechanic. I am acquainted with an automotive technician who departed from one of the Kia dealerships in my area due to his profound aversion to the incessant managerial insistence on maximising sales by promoting additional products or services at every available chance. According to the Kia website, their Service Plan encompasses the expenses associated with your Kia's regular maintenance, which includes the price of components, labour, and VAT. The exclusion applies to supplementary components not included in the regular timetable, such as brake pads, windscreen wipers, and tyres. Neither the driving belt nor the special magic fluids that need replacement are mentioned. Considering the dubious reputation of one of these dealers, I am apprehensive about the possibility of the about £450 amount quoted being inexplicably increased after all the additional charges are included. Does anybody own any valuable experiences to share?

Well done! Based on your budget, desired noise level of your R8, and patience, I just had the opportunity to visit the Secret Weapon facility in Sao Paulo a few weeks ago, and I am now their most enthusiastic supporter. The upcoming R8 exhaust, manufactured using 3D metal printing technology, is undeniably the most exceptional-sounding 5.2 exhaust I have ever encountered. The product includes headers and is priced more, but it also produces a sound similar to that of a V12 engine. In my opinion, I had Quicksilver installed on my previous V8 engine and it produced the most pleasing sound among all the V8 engines I have encountered. I can only think that a V10 engine would sound even more impressive.

A novel EZ is now being developed.

Can someone verify whether the engine of the facelifted R8 is positioned 10mm lower, has more power, and exhibits higher speed compared to the pre-facelift R8? I highly question the veracity of any of those claims. Over time, the level of power should remain constant.

Thank you for this! Excellent contribution! "According to a spokesperson for the company, they remain committed to converting up to 90 percent of their rental fleet in Europe to electric vehicles within the next ten years." "It has recently entered into an agreement to purchase approximately 100,000 BYD vehicles by the year 2028." "The BYD rollout will commence in Germany, France, the Netherlands, and the UK, with vehicles being introduced to the fleet this year." This statement supports the previous claims of the successful eradication of ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) in commercial use within a span of seven years. By the year 2030, 90% of the energy used will be electric. As China competes with Tesla and expands its presence in the European Union, we may anticipate significant reductions in pricing and operational expenses. Today, I conversed with a few individuals who have decided to get a Tesla Model Y due to its affordable monthly leasing expense of about £400. A £400 expense that is eligible for tax deduction. (This is in contrast to my recommendation that the Tesla is of poor quality)''

Are you referring to saloon car racing?

Having achieved the title of F1 World Champion three times, the individual in question unfortunately encounters a negative response from the computer. It is bothersome when you have travelled to Faro with your friends using three private aircraft and rented a fleet of twenty high-performance automobiles for a few days of racing at the Autodromo Internacional do Algarve racing track. Fortunately, we no longer experience such occurrences! https://www.the-sun.com/sport/9933230/max-verstappen-blocked-mercedes-portugal/

Examined the back pressure sensor and saw a little accumulation of soot in the orifice. Cleaned the sensor, but the issue remained unresolved. Inspected the actuator arm and questioned if there should be any rattling in the linkage or whether it should fit tightly. Please advise.

Thank you, gentlemen. It would be preferable to acquire either the Star or the iCarsoft MB2 diagnostic tools. I believe the back pressure sensor is a suitable starting point for investigation. The tail pipes are completely black, and there is a slight emission of black smoke during intense acceleration. It is possible that the back pressure sensor is responsible for the hesitation or sensation of blockage. When driving normally, the vehicle accelerates initially but then experiences the aforementioned blockage sensation, prompting a downshift and subsequent gear change, only to encounter the blockage sensation once more.

My concern is that when I accelerate, I have to press the gas pedal harder because it feels like there is an obstruction. I suspect that the O2 sensor may be responsible for this issue, as it could be sending incorrect fuel mixture information. Consequently, the catalytic converter may have become clogged, which could explain the sensation of driving with an obstruction.

No issue, thank you, buddy. Do you have a component number available for the replacement?

Is it located on the driver's side?

Could someone kindly provide the precise location of the oxygen sensor on a 2009 om642 c320 CDI w204, as well as the corresponding replacement component number? Thank you in advance.

I have just completed an 8-day journey to Strasbourg and other parts of Switzerland, which is in close proximity to your intended destination. Having previously visited the south of France on several occasions, this time we chose to go via Belgium and Luxembourg, resulting in a savings of around £150 on toll fees. Additionally, we considered the road conditions to be satisfactory. The duration of the voyage was extended by around 30 minutes, nevertheless, I deemed it to be worthwhile. Regarding more affordable gasoline, throughout the journey, I traversed France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, and Switzerland, and I perceived that fuel prices were lower in the United Kingdom. I understand that toll roads often have higher pricing, but even when considering all locations, we have not found any cheaper options.

The transition from an E90 328xi to an F06 650xi represented a significant improvement, as shown from the upgraded model. I really enjoyed operating the 650 vehicle, and in comparison to my previous experience, it had a formidable presence. However, the vehicle was unfortunately destroyed due to flash floods around six months later, and I subsequently acquired a replacement in the form of an F06 M6. The M6 provides a really enjoyable experience. The engine seems to have a propensity for demanding more power regardless of the current velocity. A statement from a review of the Alpina XB7 that I encountered seems to also apply to the M6: "The performance of an ALPINA engine possesses an elusive elegance, reminiscent of the forceful characteristics of cream in motion." The object under consideration has qualities that are aesthetically pleasing. In addition to the engine, several noteworthy aspects can be observed. Firstly, the styling exhibits a more assertive demeanour. Furthermore, the wider rims contribute to an enhanced rear profile, which I find particularly appealing. The Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) provides an immensely pleasurable experience, characterised by swift and, if desired, vigorous gear shifts. Additionally, the installation of an aftermarket exhaust system allows for the manipulation of valve openings, resulting in Wishing you the best of success with your buying endeavour! One is likely to have a strong affinity for it.

Remove the runflat tyres and engage the vehicle's sport mode. The items have been organised into a specific order.

The configuration of the rear windscreen of my A7 vehicle functions as a funnel, directing the flow of rainwater into two distinct channels located on each side. This design feature effectively mitigates the impact of precipitation, ranging from light drizzles often seen in Southeast Asia to more intense downpours. Consequently, the central portion of the windscreen remains relatively unobstructed, providing improved visibility. The effectiveness of the rain management system in a Q5 remains uncertain. However, it is evident in our Highlander, which has a conventionally positioned rear windscreen with a more vertical orientation, that rainwater does not flow down smoothly. Consequently, the use of a rear wiper becomes imperative to provide adequate visibility by removing moisture.

One potential solution to address the odour issue might include the use of Lysol or an air conditioner disinfectant in order to eradicate the underlying source responsible for the unpleasant scent. Please do an online search using the keywords "car air conditioner disinfectant" to get further information on the topic. There is no assurance that this approach will provide the desired outcome; yet, it is a cost-effective experiment worth attempting.

It is quite probable that replacing the evaporator coil will provide a temporary solution to mitigate the odour. However, it is important to note that the recurrence of the smell is contingent upon the manner in which the evaporator coil is used. The extent of this restoration is excessive, unless the implication is that it has sustained harm. In the event of damage, opting for a replacement would be the preferred course of action. I would recommend attempting to replace the cabin air filters as a first course of action. The task at hand may be completed within a time frame of 20 to 30 minutes, or alternatively, one may choose to engage the services of the dealership for its execution. An individual reported being billed a sum of $500 for a service that is beyond the scope of warranty coverage.

It is strongly advised to use the 'search' tool prior to initiating new discussions containing inquiries that are likely to have been addressed before. In response to your inquiry, I would refrain from engaging in the suggested action. What is the rationale behind this request? The occurrence is likely to repeat in the future.

It may be advisable to consider the purchase of a CTEK Battery Conditioner, namely either the MX5 or MX7 models. Undoubtedly, using the CTEK charger on your vehicle proves to be a more cost-effective alternative compared to purchasing a new battery. Additionally, the use of the CTEK charger contributes to an extended lifespan of the battery. A significant number of individuals on this forum use the utilization of CTEK.

After a four-week duration, I have received the V5C document from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) confirming the registration of the vehicle in my name. Consequently, I have successfully transferred the short dateless number plates onto the aforementioned vehicle. The appearance is really satisfactory, and I am experiencing a great deal of contentment.

s the size not too large for that particular sort of repair?
