  1. Yes, a taller tyre maintains the same diameter.
  2. I had a really intriguing encounter. In 2023, I purchased KONI shock absorbers. One of the rear ones leaked after 150 km, prompting its replacement. For a duration of two years, until July 2025, I believed the car's general handling had enhanced. The front ceased to dive when braking and exhibited reduced vulnerability to crosswinds. However, the rear continued to oscillate, prompting my need for firmer springs. Concurrently, the vehicle began to vibrate in the back when braking, prompting me to take it to the service centre. They examined all aspects but discovered nothing. My last recourse was to examine the shock absorbers. The front was pristine, but the back was questionable. Utterly destroyed, emitting gas leaks. I used a vehicle with defective shock absorbers for two years, mistakenly believing the issue was with the spring. I was fortunate to have two months remaining on my warranty. I have already driven 5,000 km on the new ones, and that is all I can convey. The back of the automobile exhibits no bounce whatsoever. I am composing this message in response to several remarks, including those underneath KONI's YouTube video, where consumers assert that the situation has worse compared to prior conditions. I assume they possess compromised shock absorbers from an initial manufacturing batch. I am now fully content; I too experienced what you described on a rough highway—trucks began to overtake me. Today is ideal.
  3. That eliminates that possibility and raises significant worry. It is time for diagnostics to ascertain the underlying issues. Salutations
  4. As already said. I had the identical problem, which was caused by the fob being inadvertently activated while in my pocket. Salutations
  5. I would want to learn about the troubles you had during the first months of ownership, since you own the same model of Evoque as I do, but are 6-7 months farther along in your experience. It would be beneficial to be informed in advance. My vehicle required a new door lock and replacement of both the primary and auxiliary batteries prior to my acquisition, and subsequently necessitated the replacement of a rear shock absorber (covered under warranty).
  6. You are correct, but just about the 2026 facelifted vehicles.
  7. One aspect to contemplate here? Do you intend to retain the vehicle for over eight years? If not, refrain from excessive contemplation. Provided you remain within the battery warranty term, unless you exceed 100,000 miles.(uncertain on precise miles) Include instances of 10-year-old Leafs or Souls that maintain a satisfactory battery percentage after a decade without thermal control. Concerns about battery life are of little priority.
  8. My device reaches a full charge of 100% each time I charge it at home. It is used inside 24 hours, so I have no problems around it.
  9. If they are debadged, request the VIN number for decoding purposes. The exact model number will be shown on that, or request to see the V5 document.
  10. A brief examination of some front suspension components reveals that the part numbers for shocks (dampers), springs, and control arms are identical for the 2024-2025 CX-90 and CX-70 models.
  11. I own an antiquated Nokia (lacking a SIM card or battery) in my R129 - it seems more aesthetically pleasing than an unoccupied cradle!
  12. Engage the parking brake, release the foot from the brake pedal (the vehicle may roll somewhat if on an incline), and then shift into park. However, that pertains to a mechanical parking brake. I detest the necessity of coercing an automobile out of park.
  13. I'll have a close look, thanks mate! Are there any other identified potentials that could cause this, or is it highly probable that the previously mentioned pump seals are responsible?
