  1. Past hour
  2. I anticipate viewing your off-road videos and will vicariously engage in my off-road excursions through your content. It appears we have reached a new phase of life. Previous life encompassed rustic camping, SUVs, and four-wheel-drive trucks and campers. Currently, with the CX-90, the experience predominantly consists of smooth roads, clear visibility, and leisurely coffee-drinking excursions. Nonetheless, future camping excursions will probably occur, albeit with a more refined ambiance. I eagerly anticipate your vids once more. Exercise caution!
  3. It is pleasing to learn that it outperforms rival all-wheel drives. I have viewed a limited number of off-road vehicle videos on YouTube. I will attempt to create some off-road action videos independently for upload this month. I require a compressor from a friend for one day to modify tyre pressure for sand.
  4. The CX-90 has performed admirably in numerous off-road real driving assessments relative to comparable all-wheel-drive SUVs. One must just refrain from entering very deep sand.
  5. Avoid getting sand in your eyes! Congratulations on your new CX-90.
  6. Exercise caution while driving on sand and ensure you have a companion equipped with a tow hook.
  7. Having previously had tiny hatchback vehicles and currently possessing an Opel Insignia station waggon alongside a CX-90, I believe there is plenty to learn regarding both the brand and the model. I am currently residing in Saudi Arabia, perhaps for several more years. I believed the CX-90 would be an effective vehicle for my journey from that location to this one. The primary factors are the design and cost. At this pricing point, there are limited alternatives available. I also contemplated the Toyota Highlander; however, the interior design failed to captivate my interest. I would also like to note that it was diminutive and costlier. The image indicates my intention to assess the vehicle's off-road capabilities during my leisure time. Transported it to the sand dunes a few days ago. Certainly not an off-road vehicle, although it was enjoyable to observe all-wheel drive in operation.
  8. Yesterday
  9. Merely validated my initial assumption. It is unfortunate, as this appears excellent, and I have observed W211 models utilising them; it seems the wheel hub differs among the 220, 280, 320, etc. Thank you for your time; nevertheless, I believe the wheels are available for purchase if anyone is interested. 235/40/R18 front Rear tires: 255 or 265/35/18. Front tires were recently balanced before to fitting; rear tires require replacement due to deterioration and sidewall cracking.
  10. I am acquainted with an individual who enlarged the holes for a larger thread size; he experienced no complications, and it was frequently utilised off-road. Am I inclined to undertake it? Negative. I would sell them and purchase the appropriate wheels, as they were evidently not intended for your vehicle. It is not solely the hole size that is affected; the radius surrounding the bolt head is also larger, which presents a significant challenge, if not an impossibility, to rectify. Dispose of them.
  11. I believe that is precisely what is occurring. The question now is how and whether I can accommodate them.
  12. Mercedes predominantly employs either M12 x 1.5 (often on older automobiles) or M14 x 1.5 (on more recent models). It appears you are attempting to accommodate 14mm bolts in wheels intended for 12mm bolts. Prepare to utilise a drill.;
  13. The 5x112 bolt pattern is accurate. The standard centre bore is 66.6 mm; I believe the issue is with the nut, which does not fit through the new alloy wheel. Thank you for your response.
  14. Clarify the term "don't fit." Will not fit through the apertures in the wheels? Is the bolt spacing different? Is it insufficient in length? Is the profile dissimilar?
  15. By the way, the 18-inch wheels originated from the 2004 E55, so they are indeed year-appropriate, which is somewhat perplexing to me.
  16. Greetings, everyone. I am the delighted owner of a W211 E220 CDI Avantgarde with an automatic gearbox. In excellent condition, I decided to indulge in a set of period-correct AMG wheels to complete the aesthetic. Could someone kindly elucidate why they do not fit? The wheel nuts from my regular factory 16-inch 5-spoke wheels are incompatible with the 18-inch wheels I purchased; therefore, if I attempt to use a different nut, it will not fit the hub, correct? Kindly assist; the images depict an attractive car, and alloy wheels would enhance its aesthetic appeal. Thank you for your attention; I hope someone can assist me, as all the "alloy specialists" have recently disappointed me.
  17. Last week
  18. As previously stated, always perform intermediate oil changes as well. If it is a diesel, ensure you take it for an extended drive at least once a week.
  19. Grateful for the counsel I will increase the frequency of oil changes and routinely inspect the fluids.
  20. Petroleum and H2O. Change the oil more frequently than the suggested interval. Subsequently, conduct a search on Google for the remaining aspects.
  21. Greetings to everybody, As a newcomer, I seek to acquire knowledge on fundamental maintenance recommendations for BMW vehicles. What are the essential components to monitor periodically to ensure optimal vehicle performance? Any guidance or insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
  22. Given the aforementioned information, do you believe it is mostly a sensor issue?
  23. They are experiencing problems with the oil level monitors.
  24. No apparent issues. This issue commenced a few days before to my Service A, and they did not mention anything. Do you recommend utilising a mercenary or an independent contractor for this purpose?
