driver for 2024 CX s90 Signs of Rust on the Passenger Side

Is rust really the only explanation? I don't see rust running onto the rubber and plastic; it seems like something else entirely. Find out if it comes off. - Earlier

Greetings everyone, I will get beneath it today or tomorrow; I haven't had the opportunity yet. That awful phone call happened on Friday night. That terrifying One. Things have been somewhat chaotic for the past several days since my brother-in-law discovered my brother's body at home. Once I've been under there, I'll upload images of what I find. Best regards

Unforgiving noise and vibrations from the W204 C220 CDI AMG Sport
DenishP4 replied to Black_raven's topic in General Car Chat
See the back subframe up close and personal while you're down there. -
I will do my best to explain this because my search on the boards has only turned up information regarding engine mounts, which I'm sure has nothing to do with what's going on here. The mileage on my 2012 C220 CDI AMG Sport, a W204, is 101,000. It cost me 79k when I got it four years ago. A clogged DPF, an injector that needed replacing, and a ruptured copper brake line in the back are just a few of the issues it has encountered. Everything is OK now, but ever since I got it, I've observed that the clutch pedal and gear knob tremble rather loudly if you really push the pedal to the floor and shift into the next gear. While this has happened a few times since ownership, the most recent occurrence was on the return trip after an 80-odd mile excursion a few weeks ago. The ride was completely uneventful, and the vibrations continued throughout the journey. It vibrates and makes a deep, metallic grinding sound at rest and throughout the rev range. The possibility that the flywheel has fallen was mentioned to me by someone. Really, all I'm asking is for some suggestions. With a young family and recently being laid off, money is tight and I don't know what to do. Is anyone else familiar with this? My first post here is a request for guidance, so please forgive me in advance. Thank you.

Is bimmercode capable of coding new headlights?
-
Unfortunately, that is only one of many uses for the dismal code.
-
When I used BimmerCode a few years ago, I believe I saw that option—something about US style marker lights or something like.
-
Bimmercode has a tonne of lighting choices, but I've never ever heard of that one. I will review it in a couple of days and get back to you, but someone could come in with the solution sooner.

In the Middlesex and Hayes areas, I suggest BMW Remapping. nonetheless, it is located in suburban London.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone in the SE London region knew of somebody who could code. I would prefer it if the front indicators stayed on when the daytime running lights were turned on. If I had a computer, I'd do it myself, but I don't. Alternately, would the bimmercode app and a Bluetooth obd adaptor be sufficient for this task?
-
I got a replacement sleeve and some Gum Gum because I cut it when removing the DPF. You won't even notice the weld. I suppose nobody will care about a well repaired exhaust system as long as the emissions are acceptable. The DPF's back is where the leak is. Also, I really doubt it's a knockoff. Since it was mostly used for highway travel (as an airport taxi), I assume it is still in fine shape. Even though it's not related to this subject, I'd still like to inspect the exhaust pressure hose.
-
An MoTer could reject it if it appears to have been tampered with. It may be beneficial to consult your partner for his thoughts about it. Does the DPF have that on the intake side? Because a lower differential pressure would result from that. It might lead to a highly unlikely interpretation, though. On my own, I would replace. However, you should inspect the DPF's tail pipe. I received two pairs of female and male items in my purchase. There is a female receiver on my back of the exhaust. Your V5 confirms that you have a Euro 5 vehicle, and your emissions plate details 0.1, so it must be. I purchased one in January from AutoDoc for £310.51; however, it did not fit, but it might have been adapted to suit.
-
If aesthetics aren't an issue, a standard mig welder blast should be enough to seal the joint.
-
After doing some reading, I would assume so. Mild steel probably wouldn't make it beneath the vehicle for so long. What happened to galvanised ubolt is also clear to me.
-
I was wondering if the DPF was made of stainless steel.
-
I figured it was time to rinse DPF with Wynn's fluid. It was discovered to have a hole! Check out the picture. It has me wondering whether it may perhaps produce a pressure leak severe enough to fool the computer into thinking the DPF is full. It seems to reason that a larger pressure differential will result in a larger soot calculation, and vice versa; removing part of the pressure will cause the shown difference to be larger. I have 316 electrodes at home, so I'll have to find a nearby welding shop to fix it. Alternatively, I could just buy some 304 tubing and practise on it.

Are you asking if a 4-year service plan is available?
Ken_Lion replied to coolguy's topic in General Car Chat
Impressive, £27! The price was right. Personally, I've never changed mine. The courtesy car is incredibly important to me, therefore I hope it stays. Even though they have service available while you wait, I prefer to use the courtesy car since I can drop it off before work and pick it up after work. My current plan expires in August, but I'll enquire about renewing it; I usually choose the two-year plan, so that might be the reason for the premium price. I can't commit to anything for three or four years.
