I also participated, likely in a discussion you initiated. As previously stated, it is not just an exemplary doc-type vlog, but the analysis of component costs and labour is, in my opinion, really beneficial. The gentleman/CEO is, in my opinion, well knowledgeable. By the way, in case anyone is contemplating whether I am being compensated for promoting the individual's garage, the response is negative. I reside in London and have never utilised his services. I am uncertain about the hourly cost; but, if I recall correctly, I vaguely remember it being 80 pounds, excluding VAT. Nonetheless, it is available at a significantly lower price than those in our vicinity.

I have observed him for almost one year and have saved his content, including numerous videos that are over a year old. I appreciate that he provides a detailed price breakdown of the expenses. He is significantly less expensive than the Indys in the London region and considerably more affordable than our local MB dealers. If I recall correctly, he has not accepted new clients for around the year I have observed him; nonetheless, verify with him if you wish to utilise his services. - Last week

The hybrid system includes an electric heater, an auxiliary water pump, and a changeover valve to alternate between engine coolant and the electric heater. Thus, it is not as straightforward in a forum post. I would first scan it to determine whether it provides any guidance.

Are there any guides available for resetting the Blend Door Actuator?

Occasionally, you may experience a slight influx of cold air as the air conditioning attempts to cool the cabin under heated conditions. However, get the cooling system inspected, as it is likely the issue.

Which engine? Which year?

It appears that your vehicle's heating system is not regulating the blend effectively. Several factors that may contribute to this: Blend door actuator — it operates the flaps that regulate hot and cold air. In the event of malfunction or obstruction, one may experience abrupt cold air or irregular airflow. If the coolant level is insufficient, the heater core will not receive adequate hot fluid to heat the air. If the thermostat is not functioning correctly, the engine may fail to attain optimal temperature, resulting in inadequate heater performance. Conduct a brief inspection: ensure the coolant is replenished and at the appropriate level, then monitor for any atypical sounds near the dashboard (a clicking actuator is a frequent indicator). If the issue persists, the mix door actuator is the probable cause.

Hello everyone, I trust you are all in good health. Yesterday, I drove my own vehicle to a work conference. All is proceeding smoothly during the drive. I certainly activated the heating. I observed that it was not heating up as it typically does; but, I assumed that the low temperatures outside would allow the automobile to warm up eventually. The heating is functioning properly. I adjusted the temperature to 22 degrees. After 90 minutes of driving, it began to emit chilly air from the air conditioning system. The rate seemed equivalent to the fan operating at settings two or three, despite the heating fan being on its lowest level; I found it perplexing. While on the motorway, I preferred not to engage with it. I temporarily deactivated the heating system and subsequently reactivated it. identical. I subsequently elevated the temperature to 24 degrees. Heat was emitted at a gradual rate. Subsequently, it emitted chilly air from the air conditioning unit. Following a day at the conference, I departed as normal, and a similar occurrence transpired on my journey home. Can somebody elucidate the current situation? Is there anything I can examine to assist with the diagnosis?

Indeed, the cost for the components alone amounts to almost $10,000.

An exceedingly costly endeavour if the original poster must acquire an additional Weistec supercharger. I believe that is a five-figure enhancement.

Reattach the blower immediately! Numerous blown 156s are reported on the US site I frequent, affecting both the 204 and 212 versions, which appear to be rather reliable when operating with reasonable boost levels. With a moderate modification, you can achieve an increase of 150 horsepower; beyond 1000 horsepower is possible with substantial financial investment....and a substantial amount of torque precisely where it is required! The supercharger whine enhances the auditory experience of the 156's performance.

Contact Acid at MSL Performance for guidance. It is highly probable that he installed the supercharger and calibrated it. I would revert it to its original state as soon as possible. 0121 772 5572

Greetings to all I have reconstructed an M156 engine that I purchased following a hydrolock incident. I have subsequently recognised that it formerly operated with a Weistec supercharger, which would have an appropriate map. The question is whether I can utilise this map or if it will result in excessive overfueling consistently. Should I revert it to stock or stage 1 settings prior to attempting to start it? Thank you in advance.

Indeed, I completed all necessary tasks when I replaced the thermostat, so I believe I am adequately prepared in that regard. I observed typical oil spots around the seal positions, which had been improperly installed. It appears that the new MAF required calibration in my situation.
