  1. Greetings! I own a 2009 4.4 HSE L320 model. The truck lacks the specialised DSC suspension and sway bar handling equipment. I am curious about the function of the DSC button on the dashboard. I have conducted an extensive search but have been unable to locate a definitive solution. As I understand it, pressing the button enables the occurrence of wheel spin. What are the appropriate ways to use or avoid using that button in combination with terrain response selections? It is advisable to deactivate the traction control system while driving on sand in order to increase wheel spin, which might be beneficial in such conditions. However, does this increase the difficulty for the traction control (TC) system to apply the brake to the tyre that offers the least resistance, so reducing the effectiveness of both the TC and terrain response? Thank you!
  2. I have acquired the Mazda soft bumper guard. I sometimes forget to lower it since it is positioned under the all-weather carpet in the trunk. In my opinion, the film is the optimal answer due to its constant presence and imperceptibility.
  3. I too have had it for three years and it is still functioning well.
  4. My thought would be either a turbocharger or a crankshaft.
  5. The next step I would do is to inspect the battery connections located under the hood. If it is not securely fastened, it might be the cause of your issue.
  6. Is it necessary to attach that unattractive cooling device to the front of those very pleasing clocks?
  7. 😂😂 That is an aesthetically pleasing modification.

  9. No association. I recently saw it while doing a brief search.
  10. I would not recommend purchasing Ridex MAF since inexpensive components often have reliability problems. Adhere to the original specifications provided by the manufacturer. Remember to reset adaptations after changing components such as the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor.
  11. Personally, I see any do-it-yourself solution as a temporary remedy to get me home, with the intention of having a professional repair it as soon as possible, rather than waiting for a long time for assistance to arrive. However, your mileage may vary.
  12. Thank you! I have pondered the durability and strength of the tools included in these packages. I have saved this particular item since it has more 'prongs'. https://www.amazon.co.uk/CKAuto-Universal-Emergency-Puncture-Motorcycles/dp/B0BZXR8Z8J/
  13. What was the level of complexity? I am inquiring since I will soon be transitioning from runflat tyres to regular tyres. Due to the lack of room in the BMW, the proposed solution is to carry a compressor and a repair kit that uses a string-based method to cure punctures. This choice is made since there is a lack of trust in the effectiveness of a can of sealant to repair a puncture.
  14. The powertrain is certainly distinctive, particularly since BMW has discontinued the 6-cylinder engine in the M140i. I had eccentric ideas like installing one in the Superb 😆 In the past, we have seen similar levels of performance with 4-cylinder engines, such as the Evo FQ400. However, what sets our current engines apart is their improved tractability and daily usage.
  15. The RS3, a model that competes head-on with the A45, was likely the intended target. A35 territory is S3.
  16. By the way, there is no need to feel guilty about your six-week duration. I have surpassed a duration of three months. Frankly, I anticipate that it will be beneficial. If you possess the ability to operate a vehicle or make an attempt to do so, while simultaneously having someone available to capture a brief video recording, it may be possible to fulfil your request. If my situation were similar, I would inform you.
  17. I acquired the MHEV GT trim in Canada as well. This is the 280 horsepower model belonging to the Top trim. Consistent outcomes, with no complications save for small recalls. Did not give much thought to the PHEV. The cost of power required to cover the range of an electric vehicle (EV) is comparable to the cost of petrol for covering the same distance. In addition, the PHEV exhibits a higher frequency of problems, and the future expenses associated with replacing the much bigger battery remain uncertain. The CX90 was compared to many three-row rivals, including Telluride, Pilot, Pathfinder, and others. After doing a test drive, it became evident that CX90 was the most favourable option among the options of CX90 and Pilot. In general, there is a higher level of premium.
  18. To mitigate the impact of bumps, I would consider reducing the wheel size by one or two and opting for BF Goodrich with a higher wall size. BFG Both All Terrain and Trail Terrain. Previously, I used BFG All Terrains on my Disco until it transitioned completely to off-road capabilities... Then Toyo MT.. ;
  19. I have a preference for the original appearance. The combination of RNS e and B&O is sufficient for me.
  20. The year of manufacture seems to be 2009, classified as Gen 1. Locate an individual possessing a mobile device in order to ascertain if the issue is with the device or your phone.
  21. What are the consequences of connecting an additional phone? Can the unit be classified as a Gen 1 or a Gen 1 facelift variant?
  22. Please go to the Bluetooth settings of your mobile device and verify the pairing configuration with your device. Is it possible to share phone numbers and make phone calls?
