  1. I recall use the wrench, but the oil level never decreases to that extent. Numerous concepts to acquire. Your explanation is really clear! I have a passion for knowledge and understanding mechanisms. One out of three Bachelor of Science degrees is not unfavourable. Centennial Hills has an additional dealership; yet, Honda West is indebted to me due to this deficiency in service. I am uncertain if such statement is permissible here. Numerous typographical errors are there in this spell format; my apologies. No pricing estimate has been provided so far. I really appreciate your effort in articulating your views. Appointment scheduled for Monday, thus we will see the outcome. Thank you one again. As I have said, there are intelligent individuals present here.
  2. Currently navigating this website. Indeed, mostly brief excursions. Decreased from 28.8 miles per gallon to 21.5 miles per gallon. The gasoline injectors were serviced under warranty. The report indicates the presence of carbon deposits inside the throttle body and intake manifold. The air conditioning seems to be functioning well; nevertheless, given the temperature of 110 degrees, I am considering a potential enhancement for its performance. Have not possessed one in six years. The brake fluid indicates contamination, however I am not knowledgeable about it. The service technician did not record any codes. I am willing to pay for services depending on distance and the heat in Las Vegas, but I do not want to be overcharged. All remaining entries are designated with a green colour code in the email report. Thank you for your response. I am an older lady, however I have undoubtedly learnt to scrutinise this bunch. If you have further recommendations, please inform me.
  3. Greetings, Recently reached 20,000 miles. The dealership recommends many maintenance tasks. Consistently do oil changes and tyre rotations alongside inspections. Following the termination of all employees at the dealership, they now report contamination of brake fluid, gearbox fluid levels beyond the acceptable limit, and carbon deposits in the throttle body. I have reservations about their trustworthiness. Only the dealer has serviced this CRV. I appreciate any recommendations.
  4. It may just be a fragment of grit lodged behind the rear plate; this occurred to a friend of mine, resulting in it being so heated that it fused to the plate.
  5. Ensure the air conditioning unit is operational; otherwise, it cannot activate the condenser to eliminate moisture from the air. Individuals who have never visited the UK may find that the winter climate is notably wet, resulting in challenges that are uncommon in North America.
  6. The supplied tires seem to lack the same tread depth as the replacement tyres. This has arisen before.
  7. TPMS sensors are located inside the rim. Utilising an Autel or Toyota Techstream, they should be capable of diagnosing a defective TPMS sensor. However, they may need to experiment with the wheels and the distance from the automobile to ascertain whether component is really defective. If replacement of a sensor is necessary, get an original component rather than an aftermarket part. Pattern components are often unreliable, resulting in superfluous warnings every several months.
  8. This is typical, since it takes several seconds for the oil pressure to accumulate inside the hydraulic timing chain tensioner and for oil to reach the hydraulic tappets at the engine's apex. The problem with a leaky tensioner is that the oil rapidly returns to the sump when the engine is shut off, resulting in starting noises even when the engine is not cold. This explains why worn sprockets increase the likelihood of the chain 'jumping a tooth' at a cold start, which may result in two pistons colliding with the valves, since the hydraulic tensioner has not yet completely engaged to support the timing chain. Nonetheless, if the hydraulic tensioner is leaking, catastrophic damage may ensue upon engine starter, even if the engine is not cold.
  9. Accurate. That is contingent upon the sprockets being worn; in such an event, two new camshaft sprocket wheels, a timing chain, a guide, and a hydraulic tensioner will be required, in addition to labour costs. If the camshaft cover is removed and the sprockets and chain tension are satisfactory, with no rattling at beginning indicating a leaky hydraulic tensioner, the cover may be reattached, allowing the vehicle to function well for many further years. The M271 engine does not have a specified replacement period for the timing chain. If it is satisfactory, no alterations are necessary. These items only malfunction when used. If they are not used today, it will be an extended period before they deteriorate and ultimately collapse.
  10. Is it possible to exclude the budget for the examination of the timing chain and sprockets? They might be in satisfactory shape; one can never be certain.
  11. The principal automotive issue in the UK is the salt used on roadways to de-ice snow and ice. Unless one washes the automobile weekly, vehicles deteriorate with time. Abysmal. In Italy, it is necessary to install winter tires, which I consider a superior choice.
  12. They provide responses and provide valuable advice as well! I have used them several times.
  13. I am uncertain, but I recommend that you reach out to these individuals, as they are likely to assist you.
  14. What was the frequency of the errors? You just acknowledge the presence of mistakes without providing the report, which may potentially be beneficial in understanding the issue. What is the consequence of deleting the errors? Do they return immediately?
  15. A substantial buckle would be required to induce juddering when braking. I first installed aftermarket discs that functioned well for a few months, but subsequently, a noticeable shaking sensation began to occur. I provided two further replacements at no cost, and on the third occasion, I also replaced the deteriorated backplates. I am unable to see the correlation, yet subsequent to that event, everything has been satisfactory. 15000 miles earlier.
  16. I encountered the same issue. In 2006, the C220 Sport had recurring judder after 500 miles after replacing the brake pads and discs twice. I replaced the severely rusted backplates for reasons that are unclear to me, and since then, I have driven around 8000 miles without any issues. Uncertain if the absence of the backplate leads to overheating. I used high-quality aftermarket components.
  17. Expressing gratitude for your kind gesture. 🙂 There is no such thing as a low-cost S class, whether it is equipped with AMG features or an AMG pack. They may still be rather expensive. However, as you said, they should now be more affordable.
  18. One of my favourite S class vehicles, and you demonstrate excellent maintenance of it! I have a strong affinity for the Diamond white hue. Accumulation may occur rapidly. I have not conducted a thorough estimate of the total expenditure on my S class vehicles, but I do possess a general estimation. Simply put, I could have acquired another luxurious automobile, but I am content with my current situation, since it is well acknowledged that these vehicles come with substantial maintenance costs.
  19. If someone forcefully pushes your head forward in an unnatural manner, it indicates a lack of adequate design, and there is no more explanation needed. I have not encountered this problem in any other car I have been in. If this problem had occurred in the front seat, I would not have bought this car.
  20. It is not a problem for my kid, since her head does not exceed the height of the seatback. If there is an adult sitting, I reverse its direction.
  21. I recently reversed their orientation by uninstalling and reinstalling them. The seats remain available for use by adults, without causing forward displacement of my child's head.
  22. Greetings, gentlemen. I am interested in upgrading from a first-generation R8 without Magnetic Ride Control to a second-generation R8 (model years 2016-2018) equipped with Magnetic Ride Control. Does the durability of the Gen 2 surpass that of the Gen 1? I often get accounts of the first generation finally experiencing leakage. Thank you for any assistance.
