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.

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

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)).

2008 3.0 TDI Quattro rear subframe

Remarkable, a decade! I had owned mine for six years and considered it a lengthy duration for retaining a vehicle. -
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.

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.

An alarm is activated and immobilises the car entirely.

The Incontrol App unexpectedly reset itself 30 minutes ago, while the cause is unknown to me. Thank you nonetheless. -

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? -

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. -

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. -

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. -

Ha! The battery is overheating. I subjected myself to the act of burning in order to loosen the negative terminal. -

Completed. No alterations.... Everything remains unchanged. Totally lifeless! -
Is there someone available to assist me? The alarm on my 2021 Evoque was activated, causing the vehicle to become entirely immobilised. I am unable to both open and shut it. Despite using the manual key to enter, the automobile remains completely unresponsive. The symptom is identical to that of a battery being deactivated. It is non-functional. The Incontrol app indicates that the alarm has been triggered and is now obstructed. The travel help department lacks the knowledge and ability to fix the issue. Is there anybody who has a resolution?

I own a MY2024 and have two questions about it. It seems that you are aware of the presence of an option in the menu for audio alerts about speed cameras, but it is currently malfunctioning. When will Mazda address the problem? My second inquiry is to the process of updating firmware. The year 2025 will include the inclusion of Amazon Alexa. Will the MY2024 model get an upgrade to include the integration of Alexa? Thank you in advance.

The injector was replaced with a different set, but it had no impact. The long-term fuel trim (LTFT) value remained in the negative range. Additionally, both mass airflow sensors (MAFs) have been replaced. Yesterday, I unplugged the evaporative emission (EVAP) switch while the vehicle was running, causing the fuel trims to decrease to around -7. I am unsure whether this is linked to my current issue. However, after reconnecting the EVAP switch, the fuel trims returned to -16. Is it feasible that an intake manifold leak is responsible for this?

Greetings, I am the proud owner of a 2012 C63 AMG. I am seeing negative LTFT values ranging from -16 to -18 at idle. Despite replacing both MAF sensors and installing new OEM air filters, the negative LTFT values persist. Do you have any recommendations for identifying the underlying cause of this issue, even though I have already replaced the MAFs and filters? Thank you.

Utilise piggyback wiring to connect a dashcam.

Exercise caution while using these piggyback connections to ensure they are inserted in the right orientation. -
Disable the Keyless Entry Fob (on some models).

Operates well on my Niro 4 vehicle registered in October.
