Did you actually see the car before paying though? That's the bit that would stop me

As they have for decades, the tuners will continue to use generic remaps to adjust power, torque, and efficiency. It makes me question how many older diesel vehicles have had the AdBlue system pre-installed. When confronted with a £2k charge to fix the system instead, many see it as a no-brainer and readily available "service" for £250 or so. Because many of them either don't know that testing is unlawful or didn't know that the prior owner had it done, they're in for a rude awakening when it happens.

Message received when contacting Kia Customer Service: With its first service performed at 22,780 miles, or around 2,780 miles beyond the 20,000-mile service period, the car was initially registered on 25 July 2022. To find out if this would render the warranty null and void, I contacted Kia Customer Care. According to their statement, the warranty will not be automatically cancelled. However, they may exclude warranty claims for serviceable or maintenance-related items that should have been handled during the initial service. According to them, warranty decisions are made case by case, depending on whether the missed service interval is related to the claimed defect.

Greetings everyone, I would greatly appreciate some practical advise regarding the 7-year warranty as I am in the process of purchasing a used Kia EV6 from an independent dealer. The vehicle was initially registered on July 25, 2022. Upon reviewing the service records, it appears that the first service was performed somewhat after the vehicle reached 60,000 miles. This is the precise schedule: Initial Service: November 2023 at 22,400 miles (which is 2,400 miles more than the 20,000 limit) 2nd Service: August 2024 at 34,000 miles (Prematurely Completed) Based on the second service, the third service is scheduled for December 2025 at 54,000 miles. I can rest easy knowing that the battery cells are of high quality because the independent dealer gave me an AVILOO battery certificate that shows a fantastic 95% State of Health (SOH). The 1,000-mile/1-month grace period is infamously strict at Kia UK, though. Is anyone else familiar with the experience of a small mileage overage on a first service? Is it possible that Kia UK attempted to limit warranty coverage for the high-voltage drivetrain components in the future, or did they highlight it? It shouldn't have any effect on ancillary features like infotainment or trim, but I'm concerned about the major EV parts. Are you considering walking away from this deal, or does the 95% AVILOO score make up for the risk? Sending my gratitude in advance for any advice!

That was also greatly assisted by my pal at Autozone. The reviews I left for him were positive.

I followed these instructions to a tee, and the wheel is still on there, so that's promising. After you confirm it's okay, I'll also use the ones on the left. In brief, I went to Autozone and replaced the most critical calliper as the shop was going to charge me too much to replace both of them. I will repair both of them together when I save up for a better set.

Salutations everyone, I was hoping to find a technical manual online to refer to when I replace the front passenger brakes, rotor, and calliper. Are these the callipers that ECS Tuning has posted acceptable? Your help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you! On the way home, I couldn't help but crack a smile. I had to out-couch some cowboys to get this one. With 68k and a service history that spans the whole universe, I'm crossing my fingers that she'll be a keeper. I am crossing my fingers for a clan-safe purchase because there is no chain noise... in the next twelve months, I will budget for a whole chain kit, coolant, and an oil change for my car.

I finally got a car that I can appreciate after upgrading my 25-year-old Yariz. I enjoy tinkering, where feasible, and am delighted to do it myself. I am also happy to acknowledge when I am overwhelmed.

I’m still not convinced, bank transfer is basically zero protection if something goes wrong. What’s stopping them from just ignoring you?

I have not encountered anything similar to this issue in my 6,600 miles of driving. I would take it to the dealer to have it examined!

Hello! I'm also from the Narborough district of Leicestershire. Every third Sunday from 9:30 am to 1:00 pm, you may find a local meet at Jenno's Coffee House in Narborough's Carlton Park. It's a popular event that happens all year. There are always a couple Mercs there, so drop by if you have the time.

Understood. I have a brief inquiry. Last night, I was compiling all the torque specifications for reassembly (any comprehensive list would be greatly appreciated). It indicates that the oil cooler screws should be set to 12 Nm, which seems appropriate; however, some sources state that they are stretch bolts and must be replaced, while others do not mention this requirement. Is anyone aware? I will likely replace them nonetheless; but, they do not appear to be TTY (stretch) bolts. Salutations.
