What is the year of the vehicle, and does it have a 4x4 or rear-wheel drive (RWD) configuration?

It occurred to me. Due to ongoing legal proceedings, I am unable to provide extensive information at this time.

In the United Kingdom (and likely across Europe), if you were involved in a collision and the insurance investigator discovered it, your insurance coverage would be invalidated. Insurers often seek justifications to evade making a payment, and while it may be challenging to detect alterations made to maps and codes, discovering an unaccounted-for box connected to cables would undoubtedly raise suspicions. Unfortunately, the Mazda Lane Assist system is very ineffective and has already resulted in accidents.

The Mazda CX30 awd 2.0 equipped with the Skyactiv X engine has impressive power and demonstrates excellent acceleration in Finland. If I get properly, this is an electric air/gasoline turbo, distinct from a conventional turbo. The fuel consumption ranges from 4.8 to 6.4 litres per 100 km.

I may have misinterpreted your previous statement in another discussion on the availability of a gearbox upgrade (in addition to the one for the recall) in MDARS lately.

Revision: There has been no significant change about gearbox. Although the CX-90 has a firm ride, I do not share the reviewer's concerns about the damping of the CX-60. Individuals who are now encountering creaks and sounds may ultimately get a hardware upgrade, albeit this matter is distinct and separate.

QuirkyPixel - I'm sorry, but I cannot provide the information you are requesting. Please refer to the accompanying page from the GOE bible for offroaders.

I will provide you with the information I have. The general consensus is that while driving off-road, namely on challenging terrains rather than ordinary dirt roads, it is advisable to deactivate the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system. This is because the DSC system may impede the vehicle's forward speed by detecting rotational motion (yaw) in the vehicle.

DSC, or Direction Stability Control, is a system that uses yaw sensors to detect lateral movement, such as sliding, in an automobile. It then applies brakes and adjusts engine speed to rectify this movement. When driving offroad, it is important to deactivate the TR (Traction Control) system. This is because the vehicle has the potential to drift sideways, which may result in the TR system cutting power and applying brakes, so overriding the TR settings. This can lead to a lack of traction and the car being stuck. It is advisable to keep the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system on when driving on the highway, as it may help avoid lateral skidding in unfavourable weather conditions. However, it is recommended to deactivate the DSC system while engaging in slow off-road activities such as hill climbing or driving on sandy terrain. It is important to note that if the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) feature is off, it will automatically reactivate when the automobile is subjected to high power use or aggressive driving manoeuvres. It is advisable to exercise a moderate level of force and control.

I am also interested in knowing if anybody is aware of any Door Sill guards. However, the film is excluded from this statement.

In my experience with dealerships, except Mercedes-Benz, I have seen that after a vehicle has undergone inspection and a price has been agreed upon as a trade-in, it is not subjected to another inspection when it is brought in, usually within a few days. There may be variations when dealing with MB dealers or if a significant amount of time has passed, such as waiting several months for your new vehicle. Nevertheless, it is essential to consider the situation from the dealer's point of view. The auction firm will transport your previous vehicle. The dealer's level of concern in inspecting your automobile is limited to the extent that the auction house does, since this is how the auction house determines the price when purchasing vehicles. The auction house's primary concerns lie in the visible aspects that a trade buyer can assess, such as the make, model, mileage, history, MOT, paintwork, alloy wheels, and two keys. These factors serve as the main distinguishing features. However, the engine, gearbox, and suspension only need to meet the minimum requirements for a superficial inspection, as conducted by a trade buyer in an auction. The trade dealer bears the financial burden of restoring the car to a condition suitable for sale, which explains why they must acquire these cars at a low price. Alternatively, if the trade dealer is unscrupulous and conceals the problems instead of rectifying them, the unsuspecting second-hand buyer will be responsible for the costs.

1. Disregard the 'Approved Used' designation and thoroughly examine the automobile as if you were purchasing it from an individual seller on eBay - carefully evaluate all aspects. Two times. Indeed. 2. Request a hard copy of the service history prior to finalising the agreement. Either in physical form or as a PDF document. Avoid accepting a brief overview in an email or a superficial examination of the salesperson's screen. 3. Inquire about the whole service history, including any repairs, whether the automobile was serviced by the same dealer or within the same network. However, they may refuse to provide this information to you, invoking the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). 4. Any agreements made with the salesperson about new tyres, new brakes, bumper scuff repairs, or repairs to worn leather must be fulfilled before to pickup. If you arrive to pick up the automobile and find that anything is not prepared, regardless of how little it may be, refrain from taking possession of it. Instead, request that the responsible party inform you of the anticipated timeframe for when the car will be fully prepared, including all previously agreed-upon things. It is important to note that the Consumer Rights Act 2015 will address any problems with the car's condition at the time of sale, however the Approved Used guarantee would not cover such concerns. Consequently, the resolution of these problems can only be handled by the dealer who provided the item, rather than any dealer affiliated with MB. This is particularly important if the supplying dealer is not in close proximity to you. It is crucial to thoroughly inspect everything, as you will not have the convenience of visiting your local dealer and requesting a repair under the Approved Used warranty for issues that should have been identified and resolved by the supplying dealer before the vehicle was delivered. 6. Inspect the quality and manufacturer of the tyres, and get a report on the percentage of wear on the brake discs. 7. Prior to signing, request a firmware update for the infotainment system and the installation of the most recent maps from the dealer at no cost as part of the agreement. 8. Inquire with the salesman about the presence of Apple CarPlay or Android Auto in the vehicle, and get written confirmation (by email) whether these features are really included. Interestingly, a considerable number of MB automobiles were not originally equipped with this feature, and it may be difficult to install it afterwards. 9. Consider carefully before purchasing a vehicle equipped with a BLUETEC engine and the notorious AdBlue system... Apologies if this comes out as rather discouraging... nonetheless, if executed well, you will have an exceptional automobile. Best wishes.

Obtain a 10% discount on the car's price, allowing you to personally make the purchase. This is the approach I used.

It is likely that if there is a fuseboard in the boot, there will be an unswitched supply cable located inside it. Performing a little experiment with a multimeter can quickly determine if that is the situation. If such is the case, I would anticipate that connecting your charger to a fused outlet via piggybacking would be rather simple.

Wouldn't he still need to open the car's hood each time and manipulate the charging wire to connect it to the battery terminals? For what it's worth, I see the advantages of a setup where one just opens the trunk, connects a cable, and then closes the trunk, particularly if this process is going to be performed often.

Take a look at this leather wrapping work done by

Simply get a matte black paint protection film (PPF) and attempt to cover the desired object with it. Alternatively, you may hire a professional to apply a new coat of paint in a matte black finish. I have seen some such blemishes resulting from the use of a radar detector, but I attribute them to typical deterioration over time. Life is too brief to be too obsessive-compulsive.

Hello, I own a C207E400.The vehicle was originally equipped with Conti 5p tyres from the factory, but had internal and exterior tyre damage on the rear despite having a relatively low mileage. I changed to Goodyear Ass 5 tyres and saw significant overall improvement. However, I encountered a pothole which caused the back tyre to burst. The wear on the front tyres from both tyre providers was adequate. I had to install an inexpensive Chinese tyre in order to return home. Currently, it is quite difficult to get 255/30/19 tyres from Goodyear. Most wider rear wheel tyres typically experience wear in the central region. I often get my car's wheel alignment checked, but it may be challenging to locate a provider that can do the task accurately.

Their appearance is impressive. Original Equipment Manufacturer Plus

Audi did not produce a mesh RS-style grille for the first generation. There are several aftermarket models available, all of them are manufactured in China. Nonetheless, we manufacture an RS-style mesh grille using the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) Gen 1 grilles. Many buyers on this forum have purchased hundreds of items. The quality of this version is far superior than the Chinese one, however it comes at a higher price.

Pierburg was once the original equipment supplier for several early BMW models, therefore it may be worth considering.

That was my first assumption, that a coat of hammerite or smoothrite would suffice, completing the task and perhaps resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing appearance than the original painting.

In Spring 2023, I purchased a 2022 A class vehicle and was offered a care package at a set monthly cost of £34. I was informed that this price was decreased because the car was still considered new. When comparing the cost of 12 months of servicing at £34 per month with the pricing of services at other garages, there is little disparity. Based on my previous encounters, I have seen that Mercedes shops possess a lesser degree of expertise and interest in the vehicle compared to independent Mercedes specialists. Consequently, I am contemplating the cancellation of my care plan, especially after my recent first service. For example, I received information from an engineer at Mercedes Birmingham that Wayne at WDM informed me. Mercedes has superior knowledge of the brand Mercedes compared to any employee of the company, and seems to understand that the primary objective of the dealerships is to sell automobiles. Does anybody else believe it is preferable to choose an independent Mercedes specialist?

That is unfortunate, a stroke of bad luck.

I am curious whether it is just contemporary smartphones that lack complete compatibility with the first iterations of Bluetooth. While it is theoretically expected, it is likely that there will be limited testing time available to support these outdated standards in reality. around a decade ago, I configured my phone using the R8 model, but I have not done so with any subsequent devices, which occurred around 5 years ago. I recall that it was outdated at that time, lacking features such as phone book synchronisation and dialling choices. However, it was ideal in that it prevented me from using the phone while on a leisurely drive.
