Cameras are no longer functional after the software upgrade.

It may be advisable to use the switch in order to activate them, just for the purpose of verifying the functionality of the cameras. -
Proposed innovations for the R8 GT Coupe's wheels?
BenTrevor replied to BenTrevor's topic in General Discussions
Affirmative. However, I may choose not to sell it as well. I have a GT4 RS on its way and I am now undecided about whether or not to retain it. Is it the original equipment manufacturer's 5-spoke wheel design? -

Does anybody have any recommendations? -
I now own a set of Rohanas and I am contemplating the acquisition of an alternative set of wheels.

Utilise Kia Connect as substantiating proof
BenTrevor replied to Screwdriver_1's topic in Technical Area
It is unfortunate that you do not own any dash camera video that includes GPS speed data. I understand that discussing this after the fact is purely speculative and does not provide any assistance in your current predicament. However, it is a scenario where it may have potentially shown your innocence. I am optimistic that the evidence you possess will be examined in a positive light, while I am concerned that it may not be the outcome. -
I completely concur. Unforeseen medical bills have the potential to completely deplete your financial resources. Superfluous possessions that result in unanticipated expenses are discretionary in nature. Medical... not particularly

BenTrevor replied to Trevorseaf's topic in General Discussions
Indeed, PN, your statement is accurate. Bank 2 is located on the left side of the engine. -
Indeed, it is accurate.

I explicitly stated my intention to only use internal combustion engines powered by petrol. However, however, I had just this one, which is rather amusing. I will no longer purchase diesel vehicles, haha.

Thank you for your response. The cap. The water pump and thermostat have both been replaced. It is peculiar since the oil seems transparent and there is no emission of white smoke from the exhaust. My vehicle is equipped with a water preheater located close to the expansion bottle. I am inquiring whether or not it is obstructed.

Greetings, ladies and gentlemen. I am a novice on this forum and I am eagerly seeking guidance from experts. I own a 2003 Mini with a 1.4 litre diesel engine. The vehicle is experiencing excessive heat buildup. Upon starting the engine from a cold state, the amount of coolant begins to increase. The heater alternates between emitting hot and cold air. I have conducted many olfactory examinations and all of them had negative results. I would much appreciate any guidance or recommendations.

Perhaps the act of observing this thread... AI is currently ubiquitous.

It is recommended to download the update onto an SD card or USB stick using the Mercedes Me online page, and thereafter proceed with the installation process. I now choose to do all of my upgrades using this method instead than waiting for the over-the-air (OTA) update.

Can factory glass be retrofitted with window tints?
BenTrevor replied to CodeCrusader's topic in General Discussions
Privacy tint was applied to our Alhambra vehicle, and subsequently, the business proceeded to remove the glass from the doors and rear quarter windows. The absence of a gap was observed in the location of the dot matrix on the stationary rear tailboard window. The distinction between the film and dark glass was indistinguishable. The cost was high due to the duration required. It is advisable to seek for a firm that does the task to your contentment, and it is important to verify the proof of their work. They often exhibit a collection of artistic pieces. -
The dashboard has been inundated with warnings.
BenTrevor replied to Screwdriver_1's topic in General Discussions
Has the output from the alternator been examined? The SL exhibited a red dash of death, which was ultimately identified as the alternator regulator. -
As per p00rmansp0rsche suggestion, the recommended oil viscosity is 5W40. You want the thinnest option for such temps.

Global Positioning System (GPS) Seeking assistance via reading
BenTrevor replied to br1anuk's topic in General Discussions
You have received valuable advise from both responses. Your proposed remedy would be inefficient and ineffective, resulting in little improvement despite the investment of time and money. Google and its subsidiary, 'Waze', are top choices for mapping and driving instructions, with Apple Maps also being a viable option. I like using the built-in navigation system in my vehicle since it displays a secondary screen in the centre of the instrument panel and shows a countdown to the next turn as it approaches. The current mapping often deviates from the best and shortest path in specific areas, leading to back roads that are difficult to navigate. Google/Waze and Apple Maps do not take the same path, instead keeping me on a decent A-road. I suggest using Waze or Apple Maps since they allow you to leverage the on-screen microphone to input your location instead of manually typing it in. In my newest automobile, including the current Sportage model, the built-in voice control system can do several duties beyond just providing directions to a place. Utilise Apple CarPlay or Android Auto with your Niro by connecting via cable. -
Simply get the VCDS cable and use the Ross-Tech software. It fulfils 95% of the tasks that automotive enthusiasts want to do on their vehicle.

Acquiring a (fresh) R8 [Assistance Needed!]
BenTrevor replied to Chrishazle's topic in General Discussions
It is commendable that you have conducted extensive research on your own, despite the several questions in your first article. Well done! Some of those details were unknown to me as well. -
Temporary loss of electricity to the dashboard?
BenTrevor replied to QuirkEinstein's topic in General Discussions
\I agree with that idea. Tayna seems to work extended hours, even on days outside the typical seven-day week. It is worth noting that I placed an order on a Sunday afternoon or teatime, and they promptly sent it within a few hours.
