All it takes to untie them is a good spritz of penetrating fluid followed by a little twist and pull to the left or right. Never had an issue with changing bolts, so I'm sure they'll be fine.

What mentioned is something I'll echo. Putting a washer in the gap between the sensor and the hub is an experiment, but remember that this is just a test.

While the video's comparison of the three SUVs' performance in a "snow battle" is entertaining, it doesn't really add anything to the overall evaluation. Furthermore, a race on a level runway isn't very important. It's like those huge booming car ads that try to show people what their vehicle can do in the middle of a jungle or desert. Nice theatre, but impractical for most consumers. While a swerving test has its uses, I'd be more interested in seeing how these cars handled climbing and descending slopes, navigating snowy intersections, stopping and going in the city, driving through heavy snow, freeing an SUV stuck in the snow, and other similar situations. Their tests weren't clean, but it's wonderful to cheer for our beautiful CX-90 that we drive. Every one of the three SUVs had a distinct set of tires, as spirod noted (and brought up briefly in the video). Before the tests, the guy said that the tires on the CX-90 were "meatier" than those on the Palisade; I also noticed that he either ignored or downplayed the comments made concerning the tire difference, haha. According to certain customer reports, the Michelin CX90 tires perform better in the Winter/Snow category (which includes light snow, heavy snow, and ice traction), compared to the other set of Michelin tires. I don't understand. Again, a runway relay? It would have been more intriguing if the Palisade had the tires of the CX90 and still managed to perform significantly worse. Michelin Pilot tires on the Palisade also get a much lower treadwear rating. Vehicles appear to be registered rather than lent by dealers; I have no idea how many miles have previously been put on these tires, and the Palisade's tires have worse Winter ratings.

I seriously doubt that Mazda is interested in a snow performance comparison with their stock tires, particularly for their PHEVs. Since it would have been more practical to compete head-to-head, I assume that most snow drivers already own a good pair of snow tires anyhow (based on what I've read here and elsewhere).

The tires on each of the three SUVs were unique.

The Miller's Ecomax Diesel that I use claims to clean injectors and increases the fuel's cetane rating to levels comparable to V-Power. For the last fifteen years or more, I've relied on it, and every time I switch cars, I notice an improvement in my gas mileage after the first few hundred miles.

Indeed, I am cognisant of that; I am merely attempting to ascertain the precise requirements. Visiting a wheel shop is a commendable suggestion; however, I am uncertain about the availability of such establishments in this area, as most have transitioned to online platforms.

My 2019 E400D does not come with any form of spare tyre or sealant. It is fitted with run-flat tires as standard. The vehicle is equipped with Eagle F1 MO tires, however they are not run-flat (RF) variants. The 19" space saver was obtained from a 2015 Audi A5. No original equipment wheel bolts; the current ones are excessively lengthy. The MSW/OZ 19-inch winter wheels and tires are sourced from a BMW 530 G30.

Is there no one who possesses this knowledge?

Greetings, I attempted to install a set of winter wheels on my 2019 W213 today and discovered that the original equipment wheel bolts are excessively lengthy. The wheels are OZ-MSW 5 x 112, 19x7.5, equipped with 245/45 R19 winter tires. I can either obtain spacers or acquire shorter wheel bolts. I believe I may possess a compatible component utilised on a 2002 Audi S3, M14 x 1.5, with a thread length of 30mm; however, I am uncertain whether it is ball or tapered. I suspect the wheels include a 60-degree taper, as they originated from an F30 BMW. Is there a straightforward method to verify this? I possess a steel space saver that likely requires shorter bolts; it was initially intended for a 2015 Audi A4. 1. Could someone verify if my OE wheels are ball or tapered? 2. Is there a swift and straightforward method to ascertain whether I require ball or tapered bolts for my MSW alloys? 3. Is there a swift and simple method to ascertain whether I require ball or tapered bolts for my Audi A4 space saver? Thank you

My Ceed operates solely on fuel. Vehicles registered in 2022 are available for purchase, but only petrol models; the status of diesel models remains uncertain.

I have detected similarities, however I noted that the headlights do alter when vehicles approach from the opposite direction. They appear to veer left (right-hand drive), similar to navigating a corner. The blue high beam indicator is illuminated continuously, creating the illusion of full beam activation. I have not consulted the dealer regarding this matter. In the manual, it is referred to as the AHS - Adaptive High-Beam System. It appears to be a "feature." The PS handbook indicates that this feature can be disabled by the dealer.

I had an acquaintance who experienced exactly identical problem. Ascertain whether the rear brakes are impeding movement by elevating the rear and attempting to rotate the wheels manually. If a wheel does not rotate freely or exhibits excessive tightness, the issue lies with the calliper, which requires either rebuilding or replacement. The phenomenon of its visibility solely in reverse occurs because reverse gear imposes greater strain on the powertrain, hence rendering the seized brake far more apparent. If the wheels rotate smoothly, it is likely that the gearbox and the reverse gear synchroniser or teeth are damaged, which is a regular issue with certain transmissions. Additionally, verify that the clutch is completely disengaging by attempting to shift into reverse without grinding while the vehicle is operational. Commence with the brakes, as they are more economical and simpler to inspect than disassembling the gearbox.

The rear windows of my Civic were tinted at the factory. I recently coordinated the front windows with the back windows. It may be unlawful, although you are unlikely to be apprehended by law enforcement for it. Light may effortlessly penetrate. Consulting a specialist typically results in the provision of a lifetime guarantee. They will reapply the colour at no charge under the lifetime warranty, even if a single bubble is present.
