  1. Thank you for the diagrams and advise; I will review them. Thank you once again.
  2. The mechanics did not specify the explanation for the issue; nonetheless, the engine exhibits an oil leak from the transmission side, while the alternator seems to be in pristine condition. Are there any reasons for the sporadic activation of the warning light while the battery continues to charge? Thank you for your response.
  3. The battery warning light illuminated around two months ago in my Peugeot 5008 diesel 1.6 HDi; nevertheless, it disappeared the next morning. I undertook two lengthy journeys totalling around 500 miles thereafter, but nothing went wrong. Two weeks after the first battery warning, I received it again. Replaced the alternator at a nearby mechanic the next day. The battery failed to charge. After one month, I received a battery warning two days ago; nonetheless, the battery was charging at 14.33V without load and 13.3V with the lights and blower activated. The next morning, the warning had disappeared. What will be the rationale behind that? Recommendations welcomed Thank you.
  4. Typically exceeds that amount. Inspect the distribution point for corrosion and measure the voltage at the junction of the large red cable and the negative terminal of the battery. Subsequently, repeat the measurement using the other lead cable connected to the chassis, ensuring that the voltage remains consistent.
  5. To my knowledge, all E90 models possess connections connected to the distribution board. Cables originate from transfer stations located directly in front of the battery.
  6. Indeed, that is profoundly distressing news, and it likely came as a surprise. Our 'special' vehicles are really integral to the family. I wish for a favourable conclusion for you.
  7. Any competent mapper; nevertheless, do thorough study, since not all mappers possess the same quality.
  8. No, I do not believe it will, since the DPF pressure sensor is not detecting a limitation; it is indicating enough flow.
  9. An somebody with more expertise in mapping and software may provide insight, but I believe that assertion is inaccurate; a software update restores oecus to their factory defaults. A map may not resolve the issue, but it seems peculiar; therefore, it requires thorough verification. If the mapping was conducted with the DPF disabled, the absence of the DPF will impact boost levels. Conversely, if it has reverted to factory specifications without a DPF, this will also have repercussions.
  10. They said that it was mapped, but the DPF was installed. This has now been overhauled, and the software has been upgraded. Updating the program likely restores it to factory settings. I will get a competent mapper to examine it.
  11. Did you use the service at Kia, and if yes, did you request a tire rotation, and is there an additional fee for this service? Thank you
  12. Received same advice about the MOT at a somewhat loaded 65,000 miles. It is not possible to replace the rear bushes with OEM or Honda components; instead, one must purchase the rear subframe, which costs almost £2000.00. I can do the replacement of the front wishbone, but the rear subframe seems to be a significant challenge. I may retain it and risk that the evaluator has been too stringent or mitigate my losses. Not an auspicious appearance for a vehicle renowned for its excellent components and prolonged, trouble-free operation for long-term owners. Quotation from the MOT “Supervise and rectify if required (recommendations): Nearside front suspension arm pin or bushing is worn, although does not cause excessive movement (5.3.4 (a) (i)). Offside front suspension arm pin or bush is worn but does not cause excessive movement (5.3.4 (a) (i)) Nearside rear sub-frame pin or bushing is worn, however does not cause excessive movement (5.3.4 (a) (i)). Offside rear sub-frame pin or bushing is worn, yet does not cause excessive movement (5.3.4 (a) (i)).
  13. Remarkable, a decade! I had owned mine for six years and considered it a lengthy duration for retaining a vehicle.
  14. Similar to the artificial exhaust sound produced by the electronic bulkhead "soundaktor," Audi included the "pops" into the original equipment ECU map's ignition settings. Most tuners often do not contain this as standard; thus, you will want a fresh map that incorporates the desired sounds.
  15. If there is a persistent noise like a continuous whistling tone, it is possible that a vacuum line is experiencing a leak or a loose seal. I own the inline 6 engine, which is equipped with mild hybrid technology, and I do not perceive any noise while the engine is idling or when the air conditioner is turned off. If you have a plug-in hybrid, I am uncertain.
  16. Is the sound localised to a certain region? (What is happening behind the scenes?) Which seating arrangement are you referring to: the front row, the middle row, or the back row? Is there just one air vent or are there several air vents?
  17. The Incontrol App unexpectedly reset itself 30 minutes ago, while the cause is unknown to me. Thank you nonetheless.
  18. The only issue I am now facing is the blockage of the Remote App. The automobile has been reported as stolen, and I am unable to take any action about it. According to Land Rover's customer service, I must visit a dealership in order to resolve this problem. Does anybody have knowledge of a method to reset the Incontrol App?
  19. The 12-volt battery was completely discharged. Both terminals are free of dirt or debris, but, the previous battery did not receive or take in any electrical charge. A fresh battery has been connected, resulting in the restoration of full functionality. Thank you.
  20. The issue with the temporary unavailability of the electric vehicle (EV) seems to have been resolved. For the time being. Let's observe in the next days.
  21. Indeed, you are correct. The 12-volt battery was depleted. This morning, my buddy and I used a booster to start the vehicle, and it started without any issues while the booster was connected. I purchased a new battery. Extracting the battery proved to be a complex procedure; nonetheless, it was successfully removed from the vehicle after a duration of one hour. After installing the new battery, I followed the reverse procedure of reassembling all the components, and the vehicle is now functioning flawlessly.
