  1. Just the other week, I had a little twig (or branch, slightly bigger) stuck in my back wheel. Sounds pretty much the same to me. I managed to extract it by squeezing my palm narrowly between the spokes. While you're driving, a little branch inside your wheel or spoke could break off, leaving the remainder stuck behind. If I hadn't been on the lookout for it, I probably wouldn't have noticed it right away. I would look under your vehicle from the side opposite the source of the noise or, if you think it's related to speed, inside the wheels to see if there's anything there. It could be anything else, but that's a good place to start. Also, make sure the tyre isn't being scraped by any loose trim pieces (or ones that don't have a push-pin).
  2. It's fucking killing me. This wasn't the case when I first got it, and I only started using it about three weeks ago. My 2025 cx70 has three thousand miles on it. Whenever I come up behind another car at a stop light, the front camera and continuous beeping start acting as if I'm extremely close to the car in front of me, but this crap happens whether I'm two feet or six feet away. I've attempted to alter the security parameters, but to no avail. Do I need to schedule an appointment and bring it in, or is there something I can do? I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this or if it's happening to anyone else.
  3. In Canada, our warranty includes three years of roadside assistance with unlimited mileage. We receive a comprehensive warranty for three years with unlimited mileage, and a powertrain warranty for five years with unlimited mileage. The roadside assistance, included in our warranty, provides complimentary towing to the nearest Mazda dealership, and if a breakdown occurs more than 100 km from home, it also covers hotel accommodations and meals.

  5. I recently discovered that someone else reported the identical issue almost one year ago. I do not remember who initiated the discussion or the precise subject line, but the final contributor proposed incorporating an inline PCV while retaining the existing one. I seek further information regarding this matter. Advantages and disadvantages
  6. It appears that I was meant to introduce myself in the initial post. It is hoped that the moderator can relocate it to a more visible position.
  7. Purchased this for my son under a month ago. I already regret the purchase. Acquired from a guy who purchases and sells secondhand automobiles. Acquired on October 1st. Immediately replaced the oil due to its little contamination and excess volume.Within two weeks, we added 1.5 quarts. Recognising the issue, he is currently operating my vehicle while I determine the appropriate course of action. I purchased a new OEM PCV valve and hose after observing YouTube videos demonstrating the replacement process without removing the intake manifold. It appears that I must remove the manifold from the vehicle, as it is situated behind it, unlike the newer and previous versions. What a significant inconvenience! Do you have any suggestions? I have included two images to illustrate my circumstances. The subsequent models featuring the 2.5L engine are significantly more accessible. The entrance is indicated by the arrow on the right.
  8. This is the content of the manual. A unit should be present in the car.
  9. I want further specifics on what was substituted. The flap is maintained in an open position by a spring and closed by the motor. The open and closed positions are quantified and sent to the ECU. If the completely open or fully closed positions are not attained, a fault is recorded. Replacing the motor is feasible; however, if the issue pertains to the flap being obstructed inside the pipe, it is likely to malfunction again in the future. The flap pipe is a substantial and costly component from Mercedes. I speculate if the garage has just changed the motor. Aftermarket components are obtainable that have the motor and flap integrated on a tiny section of pipe, allowing for the original to be cut and sleeved accordingly.
  10. Consequently, the item you purchased will be incompatible with your vehicle. The component you have purchased is intended to eliminate the flap that attenuates the exhaust on AMG petrol versions. The exhaust flap on your diesel serves a distinct function. The purpose is to seal the exhaust outlet and recycle the exhaust as a component of the EGR system. The vehicle will not operate properly without the flap. If the flap is defective, the only remedy is to install a replacement. I am not an authority in remapping, however it may be feasible to eliminate the EGR functionality with a remap. I do not endorse such approach, since it is likely to be more costly than replacing the flap.
  11. I will take the initiative to enquire if your vehicle is diesel-powered.
  12. This has been noted by another individual. It will return to the garage on Tuesday. Thank you for your response.
  13. Thank you, everyone. It will be placed in the garage on Tuesday. 👍
  14. Hello, I just purchased my first 335d xDrive and am experiencing difficulties engaging sports mode. I will depart in the morning and allow the vehicle to reach optimal temperature before using sports mode. When I use sports mode, it lacks any sense of responsiveness. If I pull aside, turn off the engine, lock the doors, then unlock and restart the engine in sports mode, it operates without issue. Could you provide any insights on the cause of this occurrence, please?
  15. On many times, I sought a return from Amazon and was instructed to retain the item despite receiving a full refund. On a separate occasion, I requested a refund due to the non-arrival of an item. A few days after obtaining the complete refund, the item was delivered to my doorstep. I contacted Amazon to express my intention to make a payment, but they advised me to retain the item without charge. How peculiar.
  16. The temperature influences the oil levels, which fluctuate when the oil cools and warms owing to expansion. Ensure to transition the gear selector through each gear for 20 seconds, commencing and concluding in the park position. A scanner would further provide the temperature of the automatic gearbox fluid.
  17. They possess a predetermined threshold for cold temperatures and a distinct threshold for hot temperatures. The dipstick must be of the appropriate length.
  18. If it is equipped with H7 HID, then these are not normal lights; it seems that aftermarket HID bulbs have replaced the halogen ones at some point in its lifespan.
  19. H8 bulbs are designated for daytime running lights on pre-LCI E92 models. I believe that halogen dip is H7 and HID is D1S. I believe fog lights are H8 as well; I cannot recall with certainty whether the primary headlights with halogen bulbs are also H7, but I suspect they are.
