  1. This is a set of 235/50R18 tires. The additional width and overall size match the stock size for speedo (no change), even though the second number is different (50 vs 55). These won't protrude or sling excessively because of their narrow width.

  3. Here are the specs: UHP 235/50R18 Considering the car's requirements, it's likely the ideal size. Compared to the stock el440 Turanza 215/55R18 tires, the performance is significantly better, and the Speedo is unaltered. You might get slightly better results with the real brand and maybe a grand touring tire. Climate is another factor. For the southwestern desert, I opted for Pirelli P Zero AS plus threes. As a general rule, the Michelin Pilot Sports are the best UHP tires to go for more extreme weather. The 235/50R18's are fantastic. It fits this car perfectly.Removed attachment.

  5. I hope this hasn't been posted before. New legislation pertaining to adblue and dpf erase will be introduced by the government in 2027. While it doesn't bother me, I can see how it might have a major impact on the tuners
  6. Impressively creative, Have you released all of the air from the brakes?
  7. Good day, Long ago, I came into this world in the county of Leicester. I departed at the age of 2½.
  8. I have tested it, and it successfully uploads my JPG files from the photographs I captured. Ensure that the image you are attempting to upload is indeed a JPG file. If it is a .JPEG, you may alter the extension to .JPG. Alternatively, you can convert the image from its current format to JPG using a conversion or editing application.
  9. No sealant on the purple seals, my friend. Should the glow plugs be replaced when everything is disassembled? Well done!
  10. Indeed, I completed all necessary tasks when I replaced the thermostat, so I believe I am adequately prepared in that regard. I observed typical oil spots around the seal positions, which had been improperly installed. It appears that the new MAF required calibration in my situation.
  11. Disconnected the negative terminal for 20 minutes while replacing the fuel filter today. Currently, it is idling more effectively.
  12. I ultimately resolved the issue. The MAF was indeed defective. I purchased a pre-owned Y-Pipe in superior condition than mine, which included one MAF. I transferred my functional MAF to it, and it accurately registered the temperature and airflow readings. Nevertheless, I occasionally have a minor hitch after startup. During discussions with Avantgarde in Clevedon, they indicated that the adjustments must be recalibrated for optimal performance. The issue is that I currently reside in Scotland, necessitating the search for a reputable independent establishment in Edinburgh. All local garages I have contacted have provided a standard quotation of approximately £90 for one hour of service. I would be more advantageous to purchase a superior fault reader for the two minutes required to reset it.
  13. I have recently replaced the temperature sensor, and I am not surprised that it did not resolve the issue. I have observed that when I disconnect Sensor A, its temperature remains at 79°C whereas Sensor B decreases to 21°C. Upon disconnecting Sensor B, both temperatures stabilise at 79°C. The subsequent course of action appears to be attempting a costly MAF replacement, unless anyone possesses other insights.
