Request a quotation from an authorised dealer for my 2013 w204 vehicle. The recommended maintenance plan for this vehicle is every 5 years or 77,500 miles.

Purchase the extended warranty. Audi does not offer it for sale after you buy the vehicle (at least in the US). Replacing the brake pads and rotors for $2500 CAD is a reasonable price provided you plan to monitor the process.

Mazda CX60 parked and locked, strange sounds heard.

You are not alone. This is the second occurrence of something similar that I have seen. Only the original poster can inform us whether a solution exists for this problem. -

Similar like a gearbox in a state of self-destruction 😂 -

Simply laughing out loud. I was surprised to encounter something novel once again. I have not seen this problem before, but I am curious to see the next Mazda model. -
Lowest electric vehicle range, decrease in electric vehicle range

I am not upset in the slightest. You seem to be eager to express your viewpoint. I informed you that you did not read correctly. -

Did not write about the XC60. (If you can read......) -

Perhaps you are mistaken. The Mercedes-Benz was pricier, whereas the Volvo was not. Perhaps when comparing it to a standard model, not a fully equipped one, such as mine. -

I refuse to sell my vehicle due to its failure to achieve the advertised 62 km EV range. However, they are not truthful. They see it as a very optimistic figure achievable only with the support of wind, sun, etc. During this winter, my electric vehicle had a range of around 28-32 km. This is less than 50% of the range that was claimed. I consulted acquaintances who own comparable vehicles from other manufacturers. (Mercedes CLE and Volvo XC40) Their electric vehicle's range is about 40-45 miles in summer and roughly 30 miles in winter. The loss is lower than that of the CX60. -
With a height of 6 feet, it is challenging for me to comfortably accommodate myself inside the confines of the third (2006+) and fourth (2016+) generation vehicles. The first two options do not meet my size requirements. During my previous experience operating a 2nd generation vehicle, I found it necessary to contemplate the procedure of depressing the clutch pedal and the subsequent need to manoeuvre my leg in order to navigate around the steering wheel on each occasion. The third and fourth generations exhibit a high degree of cohesion, yet they are still manageable. When the roof is closed, there is contact between my head and the roof. It has been observed that the dimensions of Miatas seem to be comparatively smaller inside the confines of a showroom environment in contrast to their actual size when driven on the road. On every occasion that I have come close to making a purchase, I find myself remarking inside the confines of the showroom, "The dimensions of this item are insufficient, rendering it impractical for my ownership." On every occasion, I choose to assess the perceived diminutiveness while operating the vehicle. On every occasion, I get immense pleasure from the journey to the extent that when returning, the consideration of distance becomes inconsequential. I am considering the purchase of a vehicle from the 2019 model year or later in the future. It is probable that you will align with the following two cohorts; but, the intended use of the vehicle may also exert influence. Given my regular commuting needs, the vehicle in question would be insufficiently spacious. I would be able to accommodate the dimensions of a second vehicle. Other users of the forum who have accumulated a greater number of miles in their Miatas than you have. What are your opinions or perspectives on the matter at hand?

I own a 2017 C250 d AMG Line Saloon, and I have observed that the rear tyres on my vehicle have a very limited lifespan, lasting barely 4,000 km. The Pirelli Cint P7 tyre model. Is this considered typical and are there other tyre options that may be more
DenishP4 replied to colinallcars's topic in General Car Chat
It is advisable to refrain from installing new tyres without first doing a comprehensive four-wheel alignment procedure at a reputable professional establishment. This precaution is necessary since the aforementioned issue may persist with the new tyres if the underlying fault is inside the vehicle's geometric alignment. What is the total number of sets that you have installed, and is it accurate to state that each set has exclusively endured a mileage of 4,000 miles? Can you confirm the uniformity of wear on both tyres, since it would be quite rare for such pronounced early wear to occur evenly on both tyres as you have described? -
I have just begun my exploration of Android and am now in the process of familiarising myself with the necessary steps for setting up the platform. The statement indicated that some elements need setup. In addition, the Galaxy smartphone is equipped with Bixby, a voice assistant that offers a potentially more user-friendly interface for executing fundamental phone functions like as making phone calls. The potential for collaboration between these entities exists, and the decision of which one to use for a given job depends on the method employed to activate them. Will she be provided with the opportunity to choose between the two options based on the nature of the work at hand? There have been claims that Bixby routines are incompatible with the Android operating system. I am inclined to mostly use the Android operating system. There is a considerable amount of knowledge to acquire, which is why I prefer to adhere to traditional educational methods.

I am currently unfamiliar with the functionality of Android Auto and would need to acquire knowledge on the subject. However, the dealer informed me that by connecting the phone to the USB port, it would eliminate the need for constant interaction with the phone's screen, which may be very distracting when operating a vehicle. The primary focus will be on the automobile's dashboard display. Furthermore, she expresses a desire to use Spotify, hence necessitating compatibility with the prominent knob and display, so eliminating the need to visually engage with her mobile device.

Regarding the inquiry about USB connectivity, it is vital to ascertain if the new Galaxy phone can be successfully linked to the car's USB port and a 12-volt charger equipped with a USB interface, without necessitating any supplementary configuration.

I adhere to traditional methods and practises. I have chosen to continue using a familiar item, although I anticipate the need to get a new laptop in the near future. Currently, the task of acquiring knowledge on various automotive technologies, settings, and buttons might be seen as overwhelming.

It was necessary for me to use third-party software. Windows 7 does not support the FAT32 file system for storage devices with a capacity above 32 gigabytes. Thank you for your response.

I just acquired a 2023 CX-30 automobile and then purchased a Sandisk Pro flash drive for $50 to store and play mp3 files. Upon connecting the device to both USB ports, an error message indicating "unsupported" was shown. USB 3.0 is capable of functioning in a reverse-compatible manner with USB 2.0, should such a situation arise. However, it is unlikely for a new automobile to be equipped with USB 2.0 technology. Nevertheless, even if it were, USB 3.0 would still be able to accommodate it. What is the potential explanation for this phenomenon?

The Geo Metro may be seen as a variant of the Suzuki Swift, distinguished by its use of Chevrolet's interior and dashboard components. Additionally, I achieved commendable fuel efficiency as I would often refuel when the odometer reached a reading of 492 miles. I embarked on a transcontinental journey by driving my vehicle to a distant destination and thereafter returning to my original starting point. The exhaust pipe and silencer were completely detached from the vehicle in the vicinity of Chicago. The performance of the engine was satisfactory; nevertheless, there were several instances of electrical malfunctions and persistent issues with the windows. My romantic partner resided in New York City, and I would go by car on a weekly basis to see her. I would like to park the vehicle in Gramercy Park. The individuals experiencing homelessness in the vicinity have knowledge on the method of accessing the vehicle by means of opening the rear quarter window, so obviating the need to shatter the glass. On a recurring basis, about once per month, I would encounter the presence of an individual experiencing homelessness inside my vehicle. The olfactory sensation persisted indefinitely.

I owned a Geo Metro vehicle. No more elaboration is necessary.

It is worth noting that according to a source I came across, the new Mazda 3 key, with a distinct design, does have an on/off switch. However, it is important to highlight that this particular feature did not prevent the key from passing the security test, since it relies on the user's ability to remember to deactivate it. Coincidentally, the signal sent by my key fob is capable of penetrating both the entrance door and the living room window.
