  1. My car has the same problem around once a month, constantly when in motion; it has never occurred while starting or while using cruise control. It primarily happens after the meeting with a pothole or a sudden road imperfection. I do not like to detach my front bumper, and my car is an early 2011 AB model that seems to retain certain components from 2010. The 2010 model had two sensors under the bumper, however the succeeding 2011 and 2012 versions are outfitted with a single sensor positioned below the bumper cover. I am unsure of the version I own, if I have the twin sensor variant, and which, if any, is malfunctioning. I cannot reach the space behind the bumper to see if the connector(s) may be loose. I anticipate enduring it, at least until the temperature markedly rises in this region.
  2. The 724 gearbox is a dual-clutch gearbox, not a torque converter type, and therefore requires servicing every 62,000 miles or every 5 years. It is quite probable that a shifting calibration is required, or alternatively, your clutch plates may be worn. It is anticipated that conditions will enhance with a dynamic modification and a software update.
  3. In this instance, it is necessary to replace the water pump.
  4. If it is 10,000 miles over 12 months, I would consider the mechanical warranty null and useless. Kia will use the three-month wait to deny any engine claims.
  5. I regret to learn about your Tesla. To use your Tesla wall connection with the 2023 Prius Prime, you will want a Tesla to J1772 adaptor, enabling non-Tesla electric vehicles to charge using Tesla connectors. Ensure compatibility with your wall connection model. Your Prius charger is probably a single-unit configuration, hence using your current Tesla setup with the adaptor should function well.
  6. My apologies. I should have read the headline and noted that you specified the car. I still believe it is the gear selector that will be sent as a whole set, rather than only the plastic component.
  7. It seems to be a component of a gear selector unit. Additional information on the car, such as its model and year, is necessary for anybody to provide assistance. If the gear selector seen in your avatar pertains to the Vito, there are others available for purchase on eBay; nevertheless, the whole unit is required.
  8. I’ve been searching for a small SUV for my wifes birthday and came across a pretty tempting ad on Cazoo from a company called Calkill Transport. They’ve listed a 2020 Hyundai Tucson Premium for quite a bit less than the usual market price. They are offering a 10 days inspection or money-back guarantee, which sounds fair but I’m still a bit cautious. Has anyone here have any information about Calkill Transport or heard anything about them?
  9. Did you push and hold the reset button until the TPMS light flashed three times?
  10. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0963J14HL?ref=cm_sw_r_cso_sms_apin_dp_N5F2X6ZMZ5V0YBNZ1ETK&ref_=cm_sw_r_cso_sms_apin_dp_N5F2X6ZMZ5V0YBNZ1ETK&social_share=cm_sw_r_cso_sms_apin_dp_N5F2X6ZMZ5V0YBNZ1ETK&starsLeft=1&skipTwisterOG=1

  12. I cannot assure you will get the desired burbles; nevertheless, I can confirm that the front resonators on the 4.2 S5 eliminate the appealing noises that vehicle aficionados cherish. Pops, snaps, and dramatic downshifts, etc. I used a straight pipe configuration for almost 18 months on the 4.2 S5, using bespoke silencers in place of the tiny resonators to mitigate noise while preserving desirable acoustic qualities. The resonator deletion may be the solution for the 3.0 to get an unrefined sound. Initially, when I acquired my S5, it was equipped with Miltek back boxes and a H pipe, which I found to be sonically displeasing compared to a straight pipe. Furthermore, these aftermarket exhausts do not provide enough feedback relative to their cost.
  13. On Friday evening, I noticed that the front window on the passenger side was slightly lowered by around 5mm, making it difficult to see at first glance. Earlier today, due to the heavy rain, I had to lower the window to check for traffic before starting to move. Unfortunately, I didn't shut it correctly... It is advisable to verify.
  14. Considering the battery's recent purchase, can't you initiate a replacement request based on the warranty?
  15. Apologies for not seeing before that you had a 2024 edition. These upgrades occur every quarter and follow a 7-year schedule.
  16. In the United Kingdom, it occurs biannually. Approximately during the months of May and November. Your vehicle includes a 5-year subscription for navigation upgrades, which are sent twice a year.
  17. Have you successfully identified the underlying reason behind this? We own a GLC vehicle that is experiencing a banging sound, which is particularly noticeable while driving at speeds below 30mph. We previously replaced the anti-roll bar linkages, which seemed to resolve the issue temporarily. However, the problem has resurfaced once again. Regrettably, considering the current condition of the roads, I am uncertain whether this issue will persist in the future. I would appreciate it if you could inform me whether or not you have resolved the issue. Thank you.
  18. Contact the aforementioned company by dialling the provided phone number: https://reengineeredtransmissions.co.uk. Their pricing for a warranted and completely guaranteed complete rebuild, including fitting, are far lower than those offered by other providers.
  19. OP - this indicates that the clutch packs are deteriorating, most likely clutch E. By doing a vehicle scan, it is possible to detect an issue related to the Ratio Monitoring Clutch, namely either an E or C mistake. The one enduring solution to address these problems is to rebuild the gearbox. I have encountered the same issue and used all of the temporary purported remedies, however none of them prove effective in the long term. The issue often arises from the failure of the internal bushes in the gearbox, necessitating their replacement. The most viable course of action available to you is to reconstruct the box. Consider installing a pre-owned gearbox, but be aware that if it has had comparable use, you may have the same problem after a few hundred miles.
  20. I clean mine on a regular basis and I have not had this issue.
  21. Regular maintenance of automatic gearboxes, including oil changes, is crucial. For a multitronic, one may argue that it is crucial. Therefore, I recommend promptly starting the process of replacing the oil. There is no assurance that the issue will be resolved, since there is currently existing noise.
