All sensors are functioning properly, except for the TPMs fault.

No, it's likely connected since the actuator uses the same loom. -

Is it dependent on the weather? It's just a thought. Did it rain? -

I didn't realise you also mentioned parking sensors in your post. The parking sensor/TPMS actuator loom has to have some faulty wiring, because this is a major red flag. If there's even one problem, the entire system will crash. Make sure you can read the seven-digit code. For example, a short to ground or power might be indicated by the last two digits. Once upon a time, I purchased a pre-owned loom from eBay. I swapped out the loom and removed the bumper. I hope you find it just as easy. -

Each wheel cannot be programd separately. Each wheel's data is transmitted to the roof-mounted sensor when the actuator in its arch liner (the small tennis racket-shaped component at the end of the loom) fires. Being that the sensor only transmits from one corner at a time, it can tell which wheel it is. Changing the wheels around should reveal the problem: if it shifts, the wheel sensor is at fault; if it stays put, the actuator wiring, which is a component of the parking sensor loom, could be at blame. If the connector has been subjected to strain, it is easily broken. The points of intersection are in the upper left and lower right corners. I hope this is useful. -
Electric vehicles do not offer pay-per-mile services.

Is every car going to cost £200? In addition to EVs and hybrids? -
It pairs perfectly with the UAG case I got for the Qi2. So far, I have not experienced any loss of magnetism. Since it is a sturdy arm, it will most certainly not jiggle. It has a swivel mount, so you can adjust its position by tightening a ring; however, I am unsure if the ring will loosen with use.

This one arrived the other day, and I'm pleased with it so far:

Charging the EV3 at residence using a single-phase Ohme ePod.

I appreciate it. 😇 -

stevenkeyte replied to stevenkeyte's topic in General Car Chat
The residence indeed possesses a three-phase supply; however, a limitation in the cable pathway to the charger permitted only the installation of a smaller cable for 7.2Kw, unfortunately. I am accustomed to the absence of a link between the vehicle application and the charging application, so it is not a significant issue. -

Thank you, that is a comfort, superior to the evasive responses I was receiving from Kia. -
I am in pursuit of insights from EV3 proprietors. I encountered a discussion in another forum regarding a woman whose new EV3 failed to charge with her single-phase 7.2 kW home charger. I anticipate acquiring a new EV3 next month and am currently experiencing some anxiety. I possess an Ohme ePod charger that delivers 7.2/7.4Kw from a single-phase electrical supply. Are there additional individuals utilising the same configuration to effectively charge an EV3?

If the system maintains pressure throughout, the sole component you have yet to examine is the cap. When subjected to intense operation, it may become excessively hot, potentially causing the cap to fail under elevated pressure. In any case, acquire a new cap. They are exceedingly inexpensive. However, I would refrain from purchasing a Febi product as the recent one I acquired from them was unsatisfactory. Preferably acquire an original equipment manufacturer Ford component.
-
It is an environment devoid of judgment 😊, and that was one aspect that particularly irritated me regarding the EV3 during my ownership. It truly perplexes me; it cannot possibly be that challenging for them to execute it.
-
No, the EV3 consistently reverts to Normal mode each time it is powered on. Does your EV2 not perform similarly? I would be astonished if it did not.

I possess a space saver wheel and kit acquired from The Wheel Shop. It accommodates the available space beneath the floor exceptionally well (once the polystyrene insert has been removed). Any of the equipment currently present can be repositioned in multiple locations, including within the new spare tire.

You will have one of those pinhole resets on the infotainment unit screen, if my assumption is incorrect. Perhaps 'xtrailman' is referring to it.

Experiences of ownership with the S500/560e
stevenkeyte replied to stevenkeyte's topic in General Car Chat
I appreciate your enlightening response. I am currently 57 years old, approaching my sixties, yet regrettably, I do not hold the position of a managing director in any organization. There are limited options available for purchase, and their value has not diminished sufficiently for me at this time; however, I remain intrigued. I owned a Passat GTE PHEV, which significantly reduced my expenses on fuel and maintenance due to the convenience of charging it from a standard 3-pin socket on my driveway. I must acknowledge that your compilation of 500s in your MB existence is rather remarkable. -
Greetings everyone. I am curious if anyone is willing to share their ownership experiences with either the S500e or S560e. I have previously possessed S classes (six w126s and one w220), and I owned an S500e in 2023, which was stolen after a month and proved to be defective; however, I am now eager to experience one again. I understand that responses may be infrequent, as I recognise their rarity, but I appreciate your assistance in advance.

Slightly different experience but I've just had a car delivered by Mcerlane Logistics today mine was a BMW 530d Touring that I bought privately from somebody in Northern Ireland, so it wasn't one of Mcerlane repos. I only used them for transport and the car arrived the next day, driver called before getting here and everything went smoothly. So I can't comment on buying a vehicle directly from them, but the delivery side was fine for me

If it's an over-the-air update, then you should just let it download and install.

I changed my previous post from 900 to 99 since, although the 900 could be the more palatable ordinary classic, the 99 was the original from the niche (and turbo laaaaaaaaaag).
-
The 99 turbo is quickly becoming a classic.
