  1. verify their proper alignment first. Verify that the headlight adjustment is in the ZERO position. For the money, upgraded halogen lights are a great choice. Purchasing a brand-new set of LED headlights that meet all four specifications is the only method to legally use LEDs. Reason being, in the UK, it is not permissible to retrofit your existing headlights with high-intensity discharge (HID) or light-emitting diode technology.
  2. Since I have just utilised Castrol Edge, there is no necessity to add it subsequently.Thank you.
  3. Hello, I recently serviced my 2012 320d F30 and I am enquiring whether it is permissible to add 300ml of Liqui Moly Ceratec, despite having already added 5.2 litres of oil. Thank you.
  4. I am grateful, It has been determined that the piston may be pushed back around 3 mm at the beginning, then wound back using the tool until it stops. After that, it can be pushed back somewhat farther, just enough to accommodate the new pads. Easy when you have knowledge about...... The fluid very slightly elevated the master cylinder level; I did not open the bleed nipple.
  5. Greetings everyone; After keeping the button down for 5 seconds, shutting off the engine, and then releasing it after 2 seconds, I was able to retract the calliper piston while attempting to remove the back pads. According to what I've read online, the technique of holding the throttle down won't work for my particular kind of automobile. The piston wouldn't retract completely even after I used a calliper rewind tool. My new Brembo P 86.029 pads are either 1 mm too thick or my piston is getting caught. I don't know which one it is. Tomorrow, I will test the opposite side to determine if the issue persists and to rule out a calliper defect. I would much appreciate any recommendation. Much obliged.
  6. Make sure to inspect the MAF wires as well as any potential boost leaks; a hose split can potentially be difficult to spot.
  7. the most typical offender; increase leak? (I have no idea what P0214fA14627 signifies...)
  8. Since I desired a comfortable ride, my upgrade has consistently included 18" wheels with Michelin tires and a pressure of 2.2 bar, which is the manufacturer's recommended specification. It offers superior ride quality compared to the model I evaluated at the dealership prior to purchase. The RWD variant features considerably less unsprung mass in the wheel suspension and is engineered with lower stiffness (lacking a front drivetrain/differential and rear cross stabiliser), enhancing ride quality and establishing it as my preferred option. My personal experience with automobiles has taught me to never accept tires with a sidewall height of less than 60%.
  9. The first action I take upon acquiring a previously owned vehicle is to discard the locking nuts/bolts. You may enquire at your local tire shop if they would assist you in removing it, as I have done previously.
  10. I viewed part 2 to observe the conclusion and the reassembled engine. I appreciated the startup and Sam's smile, which he himself acknowledges is uncommon.
  11. I recommend reverting to fundamental principles, traditional methods. Adjust all tyre pressures to the specified levels. Determine the procedure to reset the monitoring system, including Driving, and execute it. If the issue recurs, verify the tyre pressures and identify any that have deviated from their inflated state. I contend that replacing a TPMS valve may necessitate the removal of the tire; nevertheless, it would be feasible to accomplish this by compressing the tire with a large tire fitting tool equipped with jaws, albeit requiring the complete set of equipment.
  12. I then remain humble and corrected, laughing out loud. However, will it still fail to detect which one is out of tolerance?
  13. The tires lack pressure sensors. The system identifies variations in the rotation of each wheel via the ABS, but it does not specify which wheel is affected, resulting in the display showing all wheels collectively. If a tire is deflating, that wheel must complete more revolutions than the others to cover the same distance due to its reduced circumference in comparison to the others. Ensure that all tyres are properly inflated, which may differ between front and rear if hauling loads in the boot, and thereafter reset the monitoring system. I cannot specify the exact location of the reset, however it will be found under Driving or a similar category. Subsequent to that action, the system will only alert you if any tyre pressure falls below the predetermined levels, allowing you to identify the specific tyre, or maybe multiple tyres if unfortunate, and examine the underlying problem.
