Hello! The driver's seat is malfunctioning.

The location of the RR2012 is often situated on the front passenger side. -

Could you do a diagnostic test on the fuse to see whether it has been damaged and requires replacement? -
Cameras are no longer functional after the software upgrade.

The reset has successfully completed the task. Thank you for the prompt response... -
Greetings, individuals. I just acquired a 23 plate Sportage GTLS. Upon checking the screen, it indicated that a software update was necessary. I proceeded to download and install the update without seeing any problems. However, upon engaging reverse gear, I discovered that the cameras were not functioning. Therefore, there are no posterior, anterior, superior, etc. Do you have any suggestions on how to resolve this issue? Thank you

Last month, I conducted a thorough search and discovered that LV offers competitive pricing. Additionally, they provide coverage for the pan roof beneath the glass cover, a benefit that is not often offered by other providers.

My Mercedes from Poole caused my MOT to fail.
spiezen replied to MrGreedy's topic in General Discussions
I empathise with your suffering. If you want a vehicle with an impeccable and untarnished MOT history, this automobile is an excellent choice. It is quite frustrating, but I would personally suggest that you just continue with your life. Even if you get the money, they will not be concerned about their mistake. -
The speed remained rather consistent at 40 km/h, sometimes increasing to 50, 80, and so on, but never dropping below the speedometer reading.

Upon attempting to read the numbers in real time, I saw that both rear wheels exhibit erratic jumps in speed, ranging from 40km to 80kmh, regardless of whether the vehicle is moving in a straight line or going around turns. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the rear ABS rings had come into contact with the sensors due to rust expansion. I have placed washers underneath the sensors, which has effectively resolved the problem. However, it is imperative that I address the underlying issue by obtaining and installing new ABS rings, since the current solution is just a temporary remedy. I am perplexed as to why the values increased instead of decreasing. However, I am grateful to all those who provided comments, since the diagnostic scanner indicated that the issue was with the steering angle sensor and the yaw sensor. It is unsurprising that the ABS rings rust, given that the routes I drive on are often flooded. Thank you once again

I will verify whether the readings fluctuate while approaching corners. This is the moment when the red warning light illuminates and deactivates the ABS and traction control systems. I will do this experiment tonight. Would the addition of the rear sensor on the right-hand side affect the readings of the other sensors? I am disengaging from the yaw sensor since the red brake warning light is very reliable when it illuminates at a certain speed and while cornering. Therefore, I consider it to be functioning well.

Hello everyone, I am seeking advice regarding my 2003 330d tourer E46 car. I have been experiencing an issue with the traction control light coming on, particularly when making right turns, resulting in a loss of power. Initially, I ignored this problem because pressing the DSC button allowed me to drive normally without any power loss. However, both the traction light and the (!) lights eventually came on and remained illuminated. After a day or so, the red brake warning light also came on when I was driving at around 50mph on a slight right corner. Although it reset itself for the next journey, the other two lights remained on permanently. I used a cheap scanner and it indicated a problem with the steering angle sensor, which made sense considering the initial issue with turning right. However, it also indicated that all ABS sensors were faulty, which I chose to disregard. Today, I installed a steering angle sensor and had it calibrated using a reliable scanner. All the problems were cleared, but the issue with the lights persists, as previously described. The tyres have the appropriate pressure, right profile, are not worn, and are not staggered. The real-time data from the ABS sensors remains consistent, but when the traction control light starts flashing, the measurements become erratic. However, when the red brake warning light emerges, the values stabilise. Through my study, I have discovered that the yaw sensor has the potential to malfunction. Where is it located? I am attempting to use logical reasoning instead of randomly replacing components. Thank you in advance. Additionally, I have noticed that the brakes seem to stick and then release, and I have become accustomed to this issue over the years. It feels similar to having warped discs, although they have already been changed. I am curious whether these two issues are linked.

...............350. BMW is often a superior vehicle for driving enthusiasts, however dogs may not find it as enjoyable. Additionally, there is reason to believe that the motherboard has a greater amount of volume or physical space.

The cost for someone who will do the work themselves is between 5,000 and 6,000 units. If they hire someone else to do it, the cost is 4,000 units. The expenses for workers during the rebuild will be significant and will vary depending on the location and the buyer. I recommend setting the price at 6,700 units initially, but be prepared to negotiate. The fact that it is a touring model makes it more desired than a saloon.I sold my car last year. It was classified as a Category S vehicle and had a mileage of 108,000 miles. The car was in excellent condition and included desirable features such as a huge brake kit, split and motorised tailgate, serviced gearbox and gearbox case, Harman Kardon audio system and heated seats. I sold it for £10,600.

Recommendations for Spark Plugs for the E71 X6M
spiezen replied to jimmy47785's topic in General Discussions
Upon acquiring a set of NGK 97506 from ECS Tuning, I discovered that they were incompatible with the previous ZMR5-TPP-33 plugs. The ZR5-TPP-33 plugs are really listed by ECS. Does anybody know whether they are the correct size? -
Is our money secure in the BMW service plan?
spiezen replied to VWDaveBMW's topic in General Discussions
Life is a risk, and you must be willing to take chances in all you do. I do not own new automobiles, thus I do not have any service plans. Instead, I rely on my savings in my piggy bank and a reliable independent mechanic. -
Is our money secure in the BMW service plan?
spiezen replied to VWDaveBMW's topic in General Discussions
I have never seen any issues like that with a service plan owner. -
Over the last three days, I travelled from Leeds to Cobham in Surrey and returned in the E280cdi Sports Estate. Bring along many bags of items for yourself and your partner. Obtained an average fuel efficiency of around 41 miles per gallon when adhering to the speed limit on highways M1 and M25 while travelling south, and on highways M25, M40, A43, and M1 when travelling north. There was little traffic. The era of enjoyable driving has not ended!

I have driven a 2009 E280 cdi Sports Estate for around 9 years, covering over 85,000 miles throughout that period. It has been a reliable and cherished tool for me. A remarkable engine and a well-equipped car. Abundant power and comfort. I just replaced the tailboard struts, which was rather challenging but manageable once familiar with the task. I purchased it from Mercland when it had 111,000 miles on the odometer. The vehicle now has 195,000 miles on the odometer and continues to operate well, just as when I first purchased it. Have a great time!

Intermittent indication of low coolant level
spiezen replied to Screwdriver_1's topic in General Discussions
These enclosed systems often experience reduced performance in freezing temperatures during winter months, leading to low readings on the indicator until the systems reach their optimal working temperatures. Add about one cup of coolant, ensuring not to exceed the recommended amount. -
Acquire one of these items, or increase the volume of the radio. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/144580156690?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338749392&toolid=20006&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&amdata=enc%3A11qurpg6rQt2nvp9mPB8CeA55&customid=GB_131090_144580156690.143601850715~1869924081030-g_
