Comparison between GR Sport Ride and Excel
mrnobady replied to EnchantedScribe's topic in General Car Chat
I have had an Excel for four years and just acquired a GR. I have not seen any differences between the two, however the GR does exhibit somewhat firmer suspension and improved handling. Extremely satisfied with both, however. -
Where can I get replacement tips for a gen2 facelift car?
mrnobady replied to VVC-Geeza's topic in General Car Chat
The automobile has an impressive appearance. In my opinion, it is preferable to stick with individual tips on each side. -
Seeking input from current proprietors
mrnobady replied to another_clean_sheet's topic in General Car Chat
Is it typical to see a significant amount of white smoke? -
Instruct the spouse to occupy the rear seat ... 🤣 In my E46 320cd, I had a similar issue where the door window was not properly sealing. Despite the fact that your situation also involves a change in pitch with the road surface, the root cause may be different. The issue was resolved by replacing the seal.

Disable the Keyless Entry Fob (on some models).
mrnobady replied to Doncaster34's topic in General Car Chat
The functionality is compatible with my XCeed model 3, namely the my24 version. Nevertheless, I must relocate a little distance from the doors prior to using the lock/unlock button technique. If I refrain from doing so and push the door handle button, the doors will unlock in the usual manner. -
What is the price for replacing the front left wishbone?
mrnobady replied to mrnobady's topic in General Car Chat
Regrettably, I am unaware of the specific brand. The technician has informed me that the issue is not with the wishbone, but rather with a seized ball joint. -

According to him, the less expensive option costs £95, while the higher quality brand costs £125. Additionally, you may verify the MOT history starting from January. I suspected that the problem may be related to the wheel bearing or the end ball joint. -

What is the price for replacing the front left wishbone?
mrnobady posted a topic in General Car Chat
Greetings, everyone. The make and model of my automobile is a Mercedes E-Class W211 E280. Over the last week, I have noticed a persistent squeaking sound when driving and using the steering. I visited the technician today and, after inspection, he informed me that the front left wishbone requires attention. The technician has provided a price for the following: - A wishbone from a reputable brand is £125 - The labour cost is £65, including VAT. Is this pricing considered reasonable? Thank you. -
Deciding between rebuilding or replacing - struggling with indecision
mrnobady replied to SD1too's topic in General Car Chat
I understand and concur. The main point I was attempting to convey, if not very well, is that a malfunctioning oil pressure switch does not result in decreased oil pressure. -
Deciding between rebuilding or replacing - struggling with indecision
mrnobady replied to SD1too's topic in General Car Chat
The primary factor leading to this issue is oil depletion. While it is preferable that this is not the case, if the engine is already producing banging sounds, it is quite likely that it has suffered significant damage. If the original poster lacks the necessary expertise and money to dismantle, examine, and reconstruct the engine, it seems to be the most viable option to either replace the engine or dispose of the automobile entirely. -
I believe the V8 engine is not susceptible to crankshaft failures. If a defect triggers a notice like that, it will likely prevent the vehicle from starting. The only way to start is by reading the code first.

Considering the recent purchase, I recommend returning it. However, illuminating in such a manner often indicates that it is operating on a 12-volt power source that is nearing the end of its lifespan. The effectiveness of lane aid might vary depending on individual perception and interpretation. While some individuals detest it, others are completely indifferent. It is crucial to signal while crossing a white line when overtaking any object.

As said before, the primary dealer will arrange for the delivery of the items based on your chassis number. However, it is important to note that you will be required to provide 27 kinds of identification, along with a letter from the king. Remember to also place an order for the concealed tangible key.
