  1. In addition to the numerous weather notifications, I discovered that if an individual exits the vehicle without engaging the parking mechanism, the car would emit a warning regarding the seatbelt unless the gear is shifted to park and then back to drive. Utterly foolish.
  2. The correct method for measuring oil involves ensuring the engine is warm, the vehicle is parked on a flat surface, the engine is turned off, and the measurement is taken after a five-minute interval.
  3. Having been involved in the development process that established GVWR, towing, and payload ratings for several different vehicles, I can assert that these figures were predominantly derived from arbitrary estimations. Manufacturers will establish a target value for a specific parameter, perform validation testing according to their prescribed safety or load factor, and thereafter display the final figures on the placard. The vehicles has greater capabilities, although the label will reflect what the manufacturer is willing to disclose. I can guarantee that a CX-90 will not ignite spontaneously when towing a 5001 lb trailer.
  4. It is somewhat far, but, I had one from Ibiza a few years ago and have a Swiss one scheduled for November 1st.
  5. Plausibility refers to deviations from expected values observed in the mass air flow sensor. The authentic sensor is the optimal solution; the installation of a substandard alternative may lead to issues. Furthermore, upon replacement, it is imperative to reset adaptations and calibrate the hot air film using diagnostic tools. Occasionally, sensors may malfunction, resulting in erroneous readings or simply require a reset. If difficulties arise, bring the vehicle to me for one hour, during which I will connect my high-end Autel Pro2 Elite scanner and programmer to reset all parameters and analyse live data. Mass air flow sensors typically have a lifespan of approximately 80,000 miles and may deteriorate over time.
  6. might be the vac pipes rubber ends become soft, if not that then those engines the turbo's are crap, when they first came out they were dropping like flies from brand new, the vnt vehicle rust and shaft stuck
  7. Replacing or removing the diesel particulate filter (DPF) is frequent when the filter becomes obstructed towards the end of its lifespan. For instance, Ford, Volvo, and PSA utilise the same engine, with a service interval of approximately 75,000 miles for vehicles primarily used for long-distance travel, while those utilised for urban driving may require attention sooner.
  8. Outdated information and pricing are present. Did you enter the part number into Google? What is the number that may assist in locating one for you?
  9. Are they cataloged on realoem? I get a part number and then input it into a Google search, which often yields successful results.
