Your V5 registration document has a Variant code and the power output in kilowatts (kW). These will assist you in determining your motor/battery configuration. Rear-wheel drive vehicles in 2021, 2022, and 2023 exhibited a variety of specifications. You probably possess a 60kWh battery and a 208kW (279bhp) motor. 0-60 mph in 6.1 seconds. WLTP range of 302 miles (note that the in-car display reflects EPA standards, about 276 miles when new).

It is advisable to inspect all o-rings and seals on the turbo outlet (aluminium pipe) leading to the resonator (plastic box at the front of the engine) and the intercooler. I believe your 2010 model possesses the same or a very similar engine as my 2009 E280. I recently completed all my maintenance, and the performance has significantly improved; I previously underestimated its condition, but I now recognise the sluggishness in throttle response and downshifts. Some of these seals may have been compromised during the installation of the new intake; this is how I realised mine required attention, as I subsequently experienced a check engine light owing to many leaks, including a boost leak at the intercooler pipe. I wanted to bring this to your attention, although you may already be aware. Here is a highly beneficial link that I utilised

Greetings and welcome.

I possess a 2015 Kia Venga SR7. Recently, the ABS, Electronic Stability, and Power Steering warning lights have illuminated on the dashboard. The power steering intermittently malfunctions, and the air conditioning appears to be less effective than previously. I brought it to Kia, where they informed me that they could not extract any data from the OBD-II connection, stated that the diagnostic would be too expensive, and recommended seeking assistance elsewhere. I consulted an independent auto electrician who indicated that the OBD-II was sometimes detecting the power steering pump as absent. He replaced the pump, but the issue persisted. Fortunately, he did not bill me for the pump since he reinstalled the old one. The vehicle's MOT is imminent, and it will not pass until I resolve these issues. Does anyone have suggestions on where to start or what the issue may be? The vehicle remains in excellent shape with approximately 50,000 kilometres on it. I cannot financially accommodate its replacement.

🥰

Thank you for the responses; they have been really helpful. I will attempt to sell it privately.

I want guidance since I am having difficulty locating a similar vehicle. I have listed my 2007 BMW E92 335i on the motorway with a sale price of £1430. I am uncertain about the next steps, since the only reason for selling is the opportunity to purchase my dream vehicle. However, this seems to be inexpensive to me. In the last two months, I have installed Bosch brake discs and pads, as well as Bilstein shocks and Eibach springs on all four wheels. Extended MOT and replacement of the valve gasket and valve cover. This was executed with the intention of retaining the vehicle, and honestly, if finances permit, I would keep it, as I really love the car, having had it for over a decade. This is not a sales pitch; I am only seeking guidance.

They may also be deleted directly on the head unit. UVO has not existed since 2021. Kia Connect is required. It seems that the software on the head unit has not been updated.

The government website states that MOTs in Northern Ireland have been accessible online since 2017.

I regret to learn of your father, my friend. Best of luck with your Evoque. 😁

The type you possess determines the cost, as WD manufactures a variety of lubricants that are generally costly.

That’s the problem these days even genuine companies end up getting side-eyed because there are so many scammers around. From what people are saying, Calkill Transport sound legitimate. The model’s a bit unusual not your typical dealership but using segregated accounts and refund guarantees sounds more trustworthy than most. And yeah, that new £85k bank safety policy is definitely a welcome change.

You managed to submit it just before noon.

I own it on my SL, although there is no option to enable or disable it.

I could provide commentary, but the adage "Glass Houses and Stones" causes me to hesitate.

A friend in Liverpool had similar sounds, which were ultimately identified as originating from the harmonic balancer, at around the same mileage.

Consult with Kev at Goldcrest.

Thank you everybody for your responses. Mazda UK responded and essentially indicated that they were disassociating themselves from the matter. Not covered by warranty, suggesting it was due to normal wear and use. I have had three VW Golfs before to the Mazda and two Seats before that, and I have never seen any difficulties with brake rust within the first two years. Comparable yearly mileage as well. My current and former residences are not in proximity to the sea, and while I do not accumulate a significant number of yearly miles, I use my vehicle often and with much enthusiasm when road conditions allow. I will take the vehicle for an extensive drive on many familiar winding routes and thoroughly test the brakes by progressively increasing the braking force to see the effects. Thus far, I have determined that executing forceful braking in a straight trajectory is steady and progressive, and the brakes seem to be as robust as they have ever been. It is possible that the corrosion may resolve; we will see. I must express my disappointment with Mazda's answer, which I will include into my decision when selecting my next vehicle, likely next year.

Significantly pitted, with a noticeable reduction in the shining region where the brake pads make contact, particularly on the rear left side. I have been using the brakes more forcefully in recent days, however there is no discernible improvement in my vision. It is possible that Mazda may want the dealer to provide photographs of the discs if they are contemplating a warranty replacement. If the dealer has correctly characterised the problem and confirmed the need for disc replacement, the procedure should ideally go efficiently and expeditiously. If the dealer has not correctly represented the condition of the brake discs, then is a separate matter.

I would have assumed that 20,000 miles is quite premature for a rear disc to need replacement, but I am uncertain if this was due to disc wear or corrosion. I will provide updates on the process and would welcome opinions about the reasonableness of a warranty replacement in my situation, as well as any comparable experiences people may have with the rear brakes.

As my vehicle approached its second anniversary, I scheduled a service appointment at my local Mazda shop. The vehicle had accumulated just 10,700 miles. I reluctantly scheduled the appointment due to my previous difficulties with this dealership; but, I received two years of complimentary service at no additional cost when I purchased the vehicle, prompting me to go. The service was satisfactory, although it was marred by persistent communication challenges similar to those seen before; the service department was almost inaccessible by phone, sometimes resulting in calls ringing out before Reception intervened to take a message for information relay or a callback request. Later in the afternoon, I received a call informing me that the automobile was ready for collection. Upon my arrival, I was informed that the vehicle was prepared for departure; but, an issue related to the rear brakes was identified during the EVHC (electronic vehicle health check), and the findings were advisory. The report was not yet accessible, but they assured me it will be sent subsequently. In my haste, I seized the keys and departed without more enquiries. The health check revealed that the rear discs were rusted, necessitating replacement, along with the brake pads, as per standard practice. They provided estimates for the replacements using either authentic Mazda components or parts obtained from other sources. Initially, I felt astonishment since the automobile was under two years old and had accumulated little mileage, despite never being kept idle for extended periods without being driven. Surprise transformed into frustration when the situation became clear, although I spent many days to contemplate before taking action. I also had the opportunity to inspect the rear discs myself, and there seems to be some rust present. The adequacy for necessitating replacement is a separate inquiry (I am not a technician). My frustration stems from the fact that, although I acknowledge that brake discs are subject to wear and regarded as consumables, I would anticipate this occurring over a somewhat extended timeframe and/or greater miles. Acceptable deterioration, if you like. Given the car's low mileage and youth, I find it difficult to categorise the replacement of the rear brake discs as a result of "fair wear and tear." In my opinion, brake discs should have a far longer lifespan than this. I believe the fundamental issue is the usage of inferior components. Today, I returned to the dealership, since I find telephonic communication too cumbersome. I was informed that brake discs and pads are not covered under warranty, and they have never replaced any under warranty. I articulated the aforementioned rationale and my perspective that it need to be addressed as a warranty replacement matter. They dismissed my concerns and instructed me to communicate directly with Mazda. I did not go without obtaining a phone number for Mazda. Upon returning home, I contacted Mazda UK and did not receive the same information provided by the dealer. The representative acknowledged that the necessity for brake disc replacement appeared premature; however, she lacked expertise in the matter. She assured me that she would escalate the issue to the relevant department, and someone would respond within a week. I will await their reaction. My vehicle operates well, and the parking brake seems to engage and disengage without complications. The hill hold function works well, and the overall braking performance is satisfactory and progressive. The forum discussion below does not clarify if the maintenance was performed under warranty or whether the member incurred costs for the service, and the mileage is almost double that of my vehicle.
