Hello everyone, Seeking advice from anybody. I am attempting to put a new front CV axle (C43 S205 2019). The hub end of the shaft is pre-installed since the kit was purchased second-hand with all components included. I am trying to install it and aligning the splines, but I am unable to spin the brake disc anymore, and I am having difficulty securing it in position. The strut has been removed, and the top of the hub is detached, enabling the hub and disc to travel forward freely for easy manoeuvring. I elevated the hub using two bricks to align the shaft properly and prevent it from resisting or retracting. I have tried several methods such as wriggling, pressing, applying oil, and pounding with a rubber mallet. It seems like it's hitting a hard object? I'm gripping the innermost section of the shaft to prevent loss of force via the CV joint. Upon examining the part I removed, it seems to have a snap ring located just before the end of the splines. I presume this snap ring engages with a component inside the gearbox when the part is completely inserted. Must they adhere to a certain order or pattern? I had seen a video demonstrating this feature on a different automobile model. It seemed that with a little force, you would hear a comforting click, and then it would be difficult to retract it. I have not had much time to test it yet, but I need to go now and will try again tomorrow. Wondering whether I should seek help to address any fundamental oversights or if I just need to apply more effort. Thank you very much

It is essential for every party to have at least one.

Hi Verify the adequacy of antifreeze levels in the water.

Inspecting or changing bladders is a task that requires removing the seat. Have you removed the seat-back cover in order to have access to the control modules? Are the settings of the air bladders in both front seats equally responsive?

It is important to note that the seat module has the capability to detect a leak and will deactivate the pump within a few minutes. This is done in order to avoid the pump from experiencing burnout.

Indeed. I neglected to mention that the buttons were there on my 1997 W210 model. Dear Kameel, Have you unequivocally hit the '+' button when the ignition and lights were activated? The user's input is a single letter "i".It is rare for something to be unsuccessful. If such is the case, conducting a trial with an inexpensive substitute cluster might be a viable option to consider.

That does not resemble the dimmer switch. It seems to be related to the adjustment of the headlight range. I am certain that the dimmer switch on such vehicles also serves as the trip reset function on the instrument cluster. These contacts may get soiled - try rotating it in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction many times.

I use these products in conjunction with an interior spray cleaner (specifically, odk cabin) and thereafter remove any remaining residue by wiping it off with a microfiber towel.

I inspected the cable and discovered that it had sustained damage when connecting to the lock on the left side of the vehicle.

Upon inspection, I discovered that the plastic weatherproofing of the outer cable had detached in a specific area. Consequently, I opted for a replacement cable and ensured that the cabin cable was well lubricated throughout the disassembly process. Applied lubrication to the safety catch of the car's hood, since it was not functioning properly.

Sought assistance in locating a substitute cable. A new cable has been installed at the latch end, resolving the issue. I am now fully resolved. Thank you for your assistance. 👍

👍

I will test it in various scenarios over the next several weeks. Thank you. I haven't seen any modifications. Are there any?

I appreciate your guidance. Do you require cable removal to perform that task? It appears to be a complex job to undertake. 🙁 Have you already encountered this task?

Hope someone here may assist with a matter with bonnet catches, while opening and lever has returned to its place, The act of closing it is challenging since it tends to repeatedly spring back up, and the catches fail to secure it until you manipulate the wires and catches, after which it finally shuts.

If these accessories were provided and installed by Kia, there should be no concerns with interference from the can. It is probable that they have deleted the codes and have been unable to reproduce the problem. Without any codes indicating a specific issue (if that is the case), it becomes very challenging to pinpoint a particular circuit. Could you provide me with the list of codes?

It seems to be a problem related to water entering the system. The product is sufficiently new to be protected by a warranty. If any issues arise within the first year, it is advisable to seek assistance from the RAC for recovery, since they provide a vehicle programme for such situations. Regrettably, if you choose to drive directly to the dealer, you will be subject to their discretion and I would venture to guess that their courtesy vehicles will likely be fully reserved for servicing appointments. However, if you purchased the automobile from the same dealer you drove it to, I am certain that they will feel obligated to go to great lengths and provide assistance. Nevertheless, if they possess a collection of trouble codes, it certainly provides them with a starting point. These kind of flaws might be the most laborious to uncover. It is advisable to contact Kia customer services in order to exert more pressure on the dealer. Furthermore, the dealer should have been regularly updating you as part of their standard procedure. If they have not shown the decency of contacting you for a full week, I would recommend directly contacting Kia customer care. Wishing you success.

Constructing a homemade smoke machine to identify hoover or air leaks might be a pragmatic method. The procedure you outlined, which entails using a jar, nylon tubing, baby oil-saturated cloth, and a soldering iron, is a common do-it-yourself configuration for a smoke machine. It may serve as a potent method for detecting leaks in diverse systems, such as the intake or vacuum systems in an automobile. Ensure that all components are well sealed to prevent smoke from escaping, and use care while using the soldering iron to avoid any potential fire threats. It is crucial to always give top priority to safety while handling do-it-yourself tools and equipment.

Indeed, I refrain from using car wash services for my Evoque due to their use of highly abrasive substances and their inadequate cleaning efficacy.I will undertake the task independently, despite my advancing age. Upon purchasing my vehicle in May of this year, it seems that it had a thorough detailing process, as it now has a remarkable sheen. One would hardly believe that it is almost 8 years old and has only accumulated 52,000 kilometres.

Thank you for the excellent answer, gentlemen, particularly for the inclusion of the video reference. One must be kept in the back pocket. Thank you!

It seems to be an excellent journey. May you and your son really enjoy your time together.

I will thoroughly explore all potential options and hopefully discover a solution.

The code is P0141. There is no smell of eggs.

I will establish a connection and inform you accordingly.

Thank you one again. The sensors are accurate. I will need to change the second sensor once more. It has been suggested that the issue may be due to a defective catalytic converter. What is your opinion on this matter?
