A QR code sticker will be located on the passenger side B pillar. Utilise a QR code reader on your mobile device to reveal the location of the batteries within the vehicle. I recently acquired a replacement auxiliary battery for my E350 from Tayna Batteries for £50.99, including postage, which arrived the following day. Simple to execute, if you own a little spanner; no need to incur garage expenses. In 2022, I acquired a replacement main battery from them: the F21 Varta Start-Stop Plus AGM Car Battery, 12V 80Ah, for £144.96 delivered.

😇😊😉

I possess an Evoque P300e and a Z4. Both vehicles are excellent.

I ordered a Kia Sportage 1.6 CRDi GT-Line from them off eBay three weeks ago. Repo car with 61k miles and a clean service history. Paid through their business account my bank actually held the payment for 24 hours for verification. Once I sent over proof of the invoice and V5C copy, it cleared. Delivery took 7 days total. Driver rang twice before arriving, one call the night before, one half an hour out. Car looked great, just dusty from transport. Mechanic checked it over the next morning no issues at all. Really decent experience overall.

I have installed a resonant GPF delete on my Hyundai; perhaps this may be a solution for the Sportage to mitigate the problem?

Hello, I have read the GPF thread regarding issues, but I am uncertain whether it pertains to the full hybrid models or the 148bhp variants as well.

I have been researching Sportages for several weeks and intended to schedule a viewing until I encountered some articles concerning the GPS systems. Given that I only undertake relatively short commutes to and from work, I am concerned it may be a problem. Do all petrol models experience issues, or only specific ones? I am examining the 2023 - 2024 1.6 T-GDi GT-Line, which I believe is a conventional non-hybrid vehicle. What additional prevalent issues should be monitored in these models? I am presently driving a 2023 Hyundai I20N, which is the most dependable vehicle I have owned. I was concerned that the Sportage might be underpowered, but I discovered several firms providing remaps that exceed 200 bhp, which would be optimal. Has anyone had theirs remapped?

Competent branded battery. Others are known to provide inadequate power and possess a limited lifespan.

Precisely! At 3,000 RPM, it resembles a four-cylinder engine revving at 2,000 RPM. Someone will undoubtedly calculate and provide the precise value of 2k.

The 1.0 L Auto Picanto reaches 3000 RPM while gradually accelerating in first gear. However, it does not exhibit the characteristics of 3000 rpm, possibly owing to its three-cylinder configuration. Without a tachometer, I would have been unaware of the very high revs.

I have not had any issues with mine so far. I have refueled it four times so far, and the pump has automatically shut off each time as my tank reached capacity. No dribbles, no disorder. This may not be the most comprehensive assessment, but it reflects my experience during three months of ownership.

We just acquired the 1998 Z3 from a friend; it is in acceptable condition but not flawless. I am now seeing an ABS warning light and a check engine light on the dashboard, but I am unable to locate an OBD2 port for diagnosis or reset. It disappeared briefly after several days then reemerged when revving to just over 5,000 RPM. I must resolve the issue. Additionally, it is equipped with a Blaupunkt radio that cannot tune to frequencies beyond 87.9 FM. The university station is located here, however it is quite restrictive. The CD changer functions sometimes but mostly becomes stuck. I want to inspect the exhaust for a little rattling and assess the condition under the vehicle. Overall, she is an exquisite beauty, and my wife adores her. 😉

I would also suggest a SAM module.

I examined a 2024 Polestar with 700 miles, originally priced at £47,000, and one is available for sale nearby for £20,000. However, it is a Category S vehicle. Nonetheless, it presents good value for money, and Polestar has a strong reputation for electric cars. This was merely a consideration, but I will share it here today. It is rather powerful. We apologise for the disruption; it would have been a daily occurrence, but I cannot justify spending that amount on a daily basis.

What do you mean by "Skip"? I will not click on the video. Disengaging from gear? If affirmative, this will indicate a gearbox issue. Screeching is likely essential; they are not optimal on earlier models.Kia vehicles often have issues with the clutch, including juddering and a low bite point.

It likewise appeared on the 204, but mine sometimes became more robust and assumed the identity of Giant Haystacks.

Why have they not finished a fourth service in ten days?

I recently tested it on a 2019 model. As you mentioned, it maintains three bars with auto hold and does not decrease. Engaging the brakes will reduce speed to zero in around three seconds. With auto hold activated and off. In my opinion, this is a persistent logical fallacy; I recall someone on the forum noting long ago that Kia advised the simultaneous use of both the brake and auto hold functions. (Rendering the auto hold superfluous, amusingly). It is essential to remember that the orange bars represent only the "predictive" values; they do not constitute an actual 4x4 system. If you are consistently warping discs, I recommend doing a thorough bedding-in process (which is more difficult than it seems) and developing the habit of lifting the pads before coming to a full stop. I believe a Kia dealer would be somewhat unassisting in this matter.

I will verify; I recall seeing identical conduct prior to the replacement of my herniated discs, with no recurrence in recent years. The brake geometry is affected by the callipers' movement; in my experience, Kia dealers often fail to execute this correctly, resulting in the typical Kia brake squeal, despite the tolerances being specified in the technical documentation. Wheel balancing is a humorous explanation that only Bolton could devise. Could you please test the automobile at full lock from a stationary position? In all directions, including the reverse. Are there any unusual behaviours?

Will this also deactivate refuelling? Will everything revert to its original state upon reconnection?

My E91 330d has been stationary for a month, using trickle charging. I want to rotate the engine without initiating combustion to establish oil pressure. What is the optimal method to do this without jeopardising the catalyst and causing significant damage? In the past, it was simple, but contemporary matters are more complex. Is there a fuse that I can remove? Someone will possess knowledge.

Given that your vehicle is under full warranty, I recommend that you reach out to your dealer for any enquiries. Otherwise, it may jeopardise your warranty.

Thank you for your estimation. Is it correct to assume that you are referring to one-fourth of a litre bottle? I decided to get a large bottle nevertheless, ensuring that I had a enough amount.

Thank you for your kind feedback.
