The SkyActiv X engine operates without a turbocharger. The vehicle is equipped with a compact Roots type supercharger, which is not used for power augmentation. Instead, it is used to augment the airflow into the combustion chamber, resulting in a highly fuel-efficient engine with lean combustion. When the high compression ratio is paired with a significant amount of computational power, it enables the engine to function as a CI engine under certain circumstances. The electrical system serves the purpose of facilitating the transition from Compression ignition to Spark ignition and assisting with the iStop (Start/Stop) function.

The standard tyre sizes are determined based on the appropriate gearing to ensure that the entering axles maintain the same speed in the differential, despite the greater rolling diameter of the rear axles.

As long as you maintain a narrow margin of 5.5% deviation from the stock value, with a range of +/-1%, the differential will not pose any issues. However, due to the increased width of the front tyres and their higher profile, it is likely that the front tyres will come into contact with the wheel liners when turning, causing rubbing. while I had my vehicle equipped with original equipment manufacturer (OEM) 20-inch wheels and the ride height was adjusted with 15mm spacers, the tyres made contact and caused friction while turning. Given the addition of your ET, bigger rims, and higher and wider tyres, it is likely that you may experience some rubbing.

Additionally, it failed the MOT.

Indeed, it is a do-it-yourself project. I successfully completed mine. No specialised tools are required; only a high-quality quarter inch socket set is necessary due to limited access. It is essential that you get the 3 hole housing. (There are two existing leaks and another one will soon develop. It took me around three hours since the EGR cooler also has to be removed.) It is possible that your cylinder head may or may not include three threaded holes. In the case that it does not, just disregard the third bolt.

What is the duration of the Servicecare plan? Will there be two more years of services? It is important to note that cancelling it is not a straightforward process of instructing them to cancel and the payments immediately ceasing. The amount charged to the programme will be reduced by any services that have already been provided. If the deducted amount exceeds what you have already paid, you will be responsible for paying the remaining balance. Additionally, there is a cancellation fee imposed on the account, which formerly amounted to £40 but may potentially be higher. You are also responsible for settling this price. To get the cancellation charge, it is necessary to contact them by phone. There are reputable independent auto service providers that will surely provide excellent care for your vehicle. However, the difference in expenses compared to the Servicecare plan during the first years is expected to be quite little. If you choose to have your vehicle serviced outside of the Main Dealer network, you will no longer be eligible for Mobilo protection. Therefore, it is important to take this into consideration. In the end, it is solely your responsibility to calculate the costs depending on the pricing set by your local independent business.

I really like the manner in which it leans towards the corners. 🤣

I would imagine that installing the HUD would be a substantial and costly undertaking, as you have said. It would likely need the installation of a new dashboard to fit the HUD, as well as a new windscreen due to the differing glass requirements. Additionally, there would be a need for certain components and coding to complete the installation. Enhancing the sound system may not be as substantial, but it is likely to be rather costly. It would include acquiring both the head unit and all the speakers. Additionally, the HK setup may require the installation of supplementary speakers. There is a high probability that there will be a software update or code related to it. If I had a strong desire for such characteristics, I would continue my search.

Indeed, I was quite taken aback by the fact that it worked, to be honest. Regarding the issue of being tired with them, have you experienced any feelings of tedium or disinterest? I have only used the vehicle in their presence on one occasion, therefore I will inform you of my assessment over the next few days... 😄

Indeed, it is pleasant to have the ability to manually swap gears when necessary, without the need for the unconventional lateral movement of the gear stick.

I am uncertain at the moment, but I will inform you later.

If anybody is interested... I have finally made an effort to do this. I successfully fitted a steering wheel replacement equipped with pre-installed paddle shifters, which seamlessly integrates with my vehicle. The replacement was a direct exchange, requiring no transfer of the contact plate from my previous wheel or any additional tasks such as wiring or coding. The new wheel was sourced from a vehicle of the same make and year, with the only distinction being that it came from a Sport Plus variant instead of a Sport variant, if that distinction is relevant.

That is OK, I would not anticipate that to happen.

Thank you, friend. I get your point. I have experienced paddle shifters in several automobiles, including my M4. However, even in the case of my M4, I eventually found myself using them less often. I just want the choice, especially considering the unconventional method of using the "manual" mode in this vehicle - the act of moving the gear knob left and right to upshift and downshift seems somewhat contradictory to me! I am not sufficiently interested in it to invest a significant amount of money, but if the cost is cheap or if it can be done as a do-it-yourself project, I would be inclined to pursue it.

Greetings I own a C250 CDI equipped with a 7-speed automatic gearbox, but, it does not have paddle shifters. Can I personally retrofit this? If so, can it be accomplished only by putting a wheel with paddles, or would it need further coding or similar tasks? Thank you.

Continue to retrieve it until it is repaired.

I appreciate the insights provided on Rock Auto. It is gratifying to learn that the battery replacement is really effective.

Thank you for your response. The automobile I contemplated lacked a dashcam. I appreciate the recommendation to using an RFID pouch.

Positive news. Do you often get low battery warnings?

I appreciate the advice provided.

Greetings! I am contemplating purchasing a 2021 Mazda Cx30 due to my affinity for the vehicle. However, I have been apprehensive upon learning about battery issues and the frequent audible warnings indicating low battery levels. An incident occurred whereby I rented a vehicle and inadvertently left the doors open for around 10 minutes in order to wipe the glass. It may perhaps be attributed to its presence at the carshop, but I had a pleasant journey with it... Perhaps the receipt of a warning, which does not need a trip to charge the battery, fails to alleviate your sense of insecurity, even if it is only a caution. The noise was rather loud, so if it occurs often, it might be quite bothersome. Regarding your departure on a holiday and the act of pacing the vehicle, I find it time-consuming. Additionally, it would be inefficient for me to have to latch and lock the car every time. Can the keyless feature be deactivated? The automobile has the capability to locate the key if it is in close proximity. I am also parking in close proximity to my home. I have been informed that there has been an update, suggesting that the issue may no longer be significant. I am interested in gaining insights about the current experiences of individuals regarding this matter in the year 2024. Is everything satisfactory? Does the alert for low battery occur often, such as when the vehicle is stationary for the weekend without being driven? Has anybody ever encountered a situation where the battery completely depleted? Thank you.

The RHD GLC crabbing problem is well documented, and it is astonishing that people continue to purchase them. Alternatively, purchase one with the awareness of an inherent defect. Many individuals choose a certain vehicle based on their own preferences, while being fully aware of certain characteristics such as excessive fuel consumption, costly maintenance, inadequate dealership assistance, and significant depreciation. Certain individuals have been seen purchasing an 11-year-old 100Kmile 5.4 V8 AMG with a questionable service record, despite doing little research, because to their affinity for the colour and the concept behind it.

Additionally, please verify whether it is connected when you get the opportunity. Simply reboot your CX90, and it often re-establishes the connection. Typically, I am in a hurry and I quickly get into the car, begin driving, and only then do I realise that it has not connected. At that point, I am typically in a position where I cannot pause and begin again.

Agreed. I reconnect manually when it happens. If it is unsuccessful, I will establish a wired connection. Occasionally, this method is ineffective, and I must wait before restarting the car. However, it often ends up being successful in the end. I feel that all wireless CarPlay solutions have drawbacks.

It is recommended that the youngster be a minimum of 1.5m tall to sit in the front seat without a booster. The youngster may sit in the front with a booster seat if they are between 1.35m and 1.5m tall. There is no need to deactivate the front passenger airbag in either situation; just adjust the seat to its furthest position.
