The primary challenge will be extracting the driveshaft. E90s are notorious for rusting firmly onto the drive flange, provided the large nut has not corroded excessively. They are challenging, and by the time you purchase a quality puller kit, it may be more practical to have a garage do the task. The first step is to release the driveshaft nut and see whether the shaft will cooperate.

Indeed, but also monitor for burning sensations.

I would first examine the LCM connections and wiring.

The E39 has a light control module (LCM). I recommend obtaining BMW diagnostics to check for error codes. If necessary, a functional used module will be needed, which must also be programmed to the vehicle.

Congratulations on the new vehicle!

"Cover the lights with tape." As Johnny said, it may only be the module.

Could you perhaps provide some clarification on the term "back plates"? Are you referring to the brake pads, or is there another aspect that I am overlooking? I am planning to replace the retaining pins and metal braked/spring mechanism, since the current pins, which are somewhat rusted, are impeding the free movement of the brake pads. I have reached the conclusion that the brake judder disappears in the cooler mornings but reappears when it becomes warmer, indicating that the issue cannot be attributed to the brake discs. This leads me to believe that the pins may be smaller in size when it is cold, allowing for better movement of the brake pads. If it proves ineffective, then it would have been a mere expenditure of €15.

An enduring perennial issue, which I have also encountered. The mileage required for replacement may vary depending on your specific automobile. However, I have just replaced the two outer tie rods of the steering arm, which has effectively decreased the occurrence of the "wobble" in the steering system. It is worth noting that both joints were worn out after covering a distance of 80,000 miles. Please verify the tracking information. I completely agree with the prior remarks on the importance of being meticulously clean. I still have a little instability, but my vehicle had a TUV test last week (the German equivalent of a MOT) and I specifically requested the inspector to thoroughly examine the front suspension. In addition to being placed on the wobbling table to inspect all the joints, the individual meticulously examined every component using a pry bar and other tools, and verified that everything was in excellent condition. If you want assistance with the replacement of tie rod ends, please go to my YouTube channel (link provided in signature block).

I possess it on my vehicle, a July 2018 GLC PP model.

After updating the maps, the SD card had a malfunction and required five re-insertions before it resumed functioning. Additionally, when seeing the significant shortcomings of Mazda's solution compared to Google Maps (with specific areas being completely absent, not just outdated), I made the decision to use CarPlay and Google instead. I feel the HUD function to be insufficiently valuable to justify the additional effort required to maintain up-to-date maps.

In my assessment, I would attribute the issue to a malfunctioning alternator.

Today, I visited the dealership and inquired about the SSPD6 and recall 6724E. However, their system indicated that both issues were marked as "closed". Around a month ago, I verified my vehicle identification number (VIN) on mazdarecallinfo.com and discovered that the recall had not been completed at that time. The most recent upgrade for my CX90 occurred in February. The service manager informed me that Mazda just sent him an email notifying him of upcoming recalls. I am curious whether Mazda has chosen to discontinue the prior upgrades and plans to release fresh ones instead. I lack certainty, thus I am only speculating. I successfully convinced them to implement an updated version of the TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) to address the issue of "Noise From Engine Compartment At Idle". Currently, the engine idle no longer exhibits the peculiar "galloping" noise.

The previous owner likely had a dog, which would explain why there is a dog sitting in the garage, much as mine usually does. :unsure::) The current proprietor of one of my previous vehicles has successfully located me about its ownership. Uncertain about the method he used, it is conceivable that such an accomplishment may be unattainable in the present era of data security.

OP, I predict that MB will extract the gearbox and outsource it to an expert. Subsequently, they will evaluate the expenses and likely attempt to market a new gearbox to you. Continue doing independent research at this time.

Has the control arm rear bush or shock mount been inspected?

Over the course of several kilometres, I have had this issue with my E220 CDI. Despite attempting remedies such as using injector cleaning and changing filters, there has been no discernible improvement. It is peculiar, but fortunately, it does not seem to have any negative impact on the vehicle's performance. There is no need to be concerned.

What is the plan?

Automobiles manufactured before model year 2024 do not come equipped with the necessary hardware for wireless charging or wireless compatibility with Android Auto/Apple Car Play as a standard feature. Hardware limitations prevent a software update from introducing new functionalities.

Wireless Android Auto is not included as a standard feature in the 2021 versions available in Europe. The option to buy it as a dealer option is available, and it may be installed in the central console. There are other aftermarket choices available, including the Mazda original equipment manufacturer (OEM) option.

Yes, however, it is essentially a comprehensive elucidation of the concise section in the JLR handbook on the appropriate circumstances for disabling the DSC, and both sources are much in concurrence (with the GOE providing more details on the reasons and methods). In Europe, there are no options for driving on sand because to strict regulations that prohibit driving on beaches and sand dunes. Additionally, Europe does not have any deserts. The yearly LR owners-only event route passes through a military training area, but this location is not a desert. Instead, it resembles a savannah-like postapocalyptic setting. My understanding of "authentic" sand is rather limited. Under all other conditions, I keep the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) on, even while ascending a 20-degree grassy slope near my previous residence in rainy weather, as the vehicle maintains its traction and stability. By the way, the statement in the GOE handbook on the RRS/LR4 sand mode of TR is accurate. It really permits wheelspin, but with an unusual throttle response curve, and also allows for some yaw. Once again, I have never seen a situation involving sand dunes, therefore I am unable to accurately assess the extent to which the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system hampers driving on sand. Therefore, I will depend on your expertise moving forward.

I shall provide you with the information at my disposal. It is generally agreed upon that while going off-road, particularly on difficult terrains rather than regular dirt roads, it is recommended to disable the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system. The reason for this is because the DSC system might hinder the vehicle's forward velocity by sensing rotational movement (yaw) in the vehicle.

Negative. I am able to do powerslides with any of my Land Rovers equipped with DSC in the snow for extended periods of time without triggering the system. The system only activates again after restarting the engine or manually reactivating it.

I am certain that it is "Dynamic". The URL provided is: https://topix.landrover.jlrext.com/topix/service/archive/60643/stability control.pdf In the majority of situations, you do not deactivate it while driving off-road. The JLR page provided above delineates the specific scenarios in which it may be useful. However, as I previously attempted to elucidate, when you disable the DSC, you are only partly deactivating the chosen Terrain Response programme, since both systems have interdependent functionality.

The concept of "DSC suspension" does not exist. You may be confusing Dynamic Stability Control, a drivetrain function that is part of the Terrain Response system, with Dynamic Response, which is the official term used by JLR and refers to an active antiroll bar. When the DSC is in the "off" position, it does not improve TR programmes. To ensure optimal functioning of the TR, it is advisable to keep the DSC enabled and refrain from removing it, since doing so might partly deactivate the TR. Contrary to what you said, the sand programme operates in a distinct manner.
