I wouldn't buy that Mercedes unless they offered to fix it for free. Subframe rust on a 2017 car? What a shame!

This is where I purchased mine from the MB dealer. The name you should ask for is pentosin.

I know 2023 was the transitional model year; is yours a Gen1 or the new Gen2 design? I am not really familiar with the earlier model, but my 24 Gen2 C-HR Gr Sport does provide remote climate control using the app, as the Gen1 should as well. Refer to the screenshot below, albeit its applicability is contingent upon the availability of vertical features in your vehicle. Does your app indicate that you possess the newest version, 2.20.0?

Standard 17mm hex wheel bolt or the locking wheel bolt? Is it impaired?

Did the garage also repair the wear sensors, considering that the brake pads may have been replaced previously? Once the car or sensors indicate a need for replacement, or if the sensors have beyond their lifespan, they must be replaced to eliminate the warning, I believe. The procedure to reset the brake service light for a BMW 520d (F10/F11 or G30 chassis) can be executed via the BC button on the turn signal stalk or the odometer reset button on the instrument cluster. Essential Prerequisites: Installation of new brake pads and a new brake wear sensor is required for the reset to function properly. The sensor is a disposable device that interrupts the circuit when utilised. The electronic parking brake must be disengaged. Your foot must be removed from the brake pedal. Reset Protocol (utilising the BC stalk button) Activate the ignition without initiating the engine by pressing the Start/Stop button once for F-chassis or three times for G-chassis, without applying pressure on the brake pedal. Shut all doors and await the clearance of any preliminary warning messages from the instrument cluster. Utilise the BC button located at the end of the turn signal stalk to go around the instrument cluster display until the date/time or trip odometer is visible. Depress and maintain pressure on the BC button until the service warning indicators manifest. Press the BC button briefly and frequently to navigate among the many service options (front brakes, rear brakes, brake fluid, etc.) until the preferred item is highlighted. After the desired service is shown, press and hold the BC button one more until "Reset?" is displayed. Depress the button, then press and hold it again until the progress meter completes and "Reset Successful" or "Resetting" appears. Deactivate the ignition. The warning light should now be extinguished.

Fault in Tyre Under-Inflation Monitoring

Alternatively, you may request the deactivation of the system, provided you can "manage" without it. -
I have not performed this on our CX-90, but I previously had it done on our Yukon, and I believe it was beneficial.

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.

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. -
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.

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.

Where can I get new microswitches for the Z4 E89 boot?
johnmayerrr replied to nimbuye5's topic in General Car Chat
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? -

Are they cataloged on realoem? I get a part number and then input it into a Google search, which often yields successful results. -

The scanner must be of high quality. Reexamine and enumerate the codes herein.
