Indeed. Rational. It is necessary to reset the error codes and then do another scan.

It seems that you may not have properly installed the air intake system, causing air to skip the filter.

I appreciate all of the responses. Today, I am experiencing a more positive sentiment for my Evoque. The vehicle is quite comfortable, however the maintenance costs have been substantial, particularly due to my lack of complete confidence in the quality of the "new" JLR components. Regardless, I will have the balancing shaft rebuilt and assess the situation thereafter.

May your success last for a long time!

Greetings It has been an extended period of time since I last visited this place (feeling regretful), but I recently remembered all of you and wondered whether the forum is still thriving. You are engaging in the act of reading the postings. I now own a 2019 white HSE Dynamic and despite encountering several technical and mechanical problems, I have maintained a strong affection for the vehicle. However, a significant issue has suddenly emerged - the need for a new balancing shaft. My vehicle has accumulated less than 20,000 miles and, while it is rather old, JLR has been completely uncooperative on this issue. This has caused me to seriously question whether I should continue to purchase and drive JLR automobiles. I am also capable of operating a Mini of the same vintage, which has seen far less mechanical problems compared to the Evoque. Although it may seem melancholic, this article really reflects my sentiments about my Evoque. 😞 I am uncertain about the specific information I am seeking and if there are any individuals available to provide a response. Could someone please clarify? Thank you.

Looking to buy a thread that is filled with scammers.

y the way, if you're seeking a solution, I acquired a basic AMI-to-Aux cable a long time ago. Subsequently, I connected a brief Auxiliary to USB-C cable, and I have been using it consistently since then. A significant number of AMI-to-USB-C adapters did not function as music streaming devices, but rather just served the purpose of charging the phone. However, implementing it in this manner works well. Clearly, it lacks wifi functionality, but I am OK with that. Alternatively, there are Bluetooth to FM-transmitter adapters that may be inserted into your 12V power outlets. One of the individuals in our group had a commendable notion a few years ago - he placed one of these devices in the front trunk of the vehicle, since there is a 12V power outlet available in that location. Therefore, it is situated in a remote location and does not detract from the visual appeal in any way. To stream, establish a Bluetooth connection and adjust the FM radio to the appropriate frequency. I am uncertain about the exact level of quality, but the direct cable exhibits a quite commendable level of quality. -
Do you believe that the headers were worthwhile?

The configuration of my exhaust system consists of a straight pipe. The trajectory of the cats extends in a linear path directly from the centre of my bumper.

Hello, I own a 2018 Audi R8 and I'm curious if anybody in this community has ever removed the catalytic converters from their vehicle, either by physically cutting them off or by gutting them. I would appreciate any insights or experiences shared. Thank you. I have a strong preference for loud autos and I currently have an exhaust system, but it lacks the desired loudness.

Issue with rapidly flashing indicator lights resolved
coolguy replied to colinallcars's topic in General Car Chat
It seems that there is a poor connection at that corner. There may be a little level of corrosion present on the contacts. -

As said, excellent job. However, please refrain from excessively using them, since we BMW drivers must maintain our reputation. Thank you for the information. It might perhaps be beneficial to someone in the future. -
I am examining the soft bumper guard and have a few inquiries. What is the method of attachment? Is it compatible with the rubber cargo tray that has seat back protection?

That now resembles a Karcher.

If the battery in question is the original one, then it is advisable to replace it with a new one. I may have an internal malfunction that establishes contact, but when subjected to a load, it interrupts the contact. If the appearance of the item is identical to mine, it is worth noting that my item has been non-functional for some years. To my knowledge, its only purpose is to enable stop/start functionality, without affecting any other functions.

Fixing an air leak in the P202B/P2007 system using a DIY method.
coolguy replied to paulh2602601's topic in General Car Chat
Yesterday, I replaced the valve cover gaskets. After doing so, I began experiencing the P202B error and the P2007-000 problem. I removed the valve cover bolt for that specific line, and it is evident that I successfully loosened it yesterday. I managed to resolve the issue quickly over my lunch break. I am indebted to you and will provide you with a beverage of your choice. If you choose, direct message me your email address and I will transfer a little amount of money to you via PayPal. -
Comparison between the 2017/18/20 V10 Plus and the 2022/23 RWD.

Will you be sharing any photographs, my friend? -
Thank you for your prompt answer. Perhaps the chilly weather is the cause? Considering my current location in Virginia, the temperature is not too low. However, it is evident that the fuel efficiency of my vehicle has declined since the change in weather. However, it is rather unfortunate that a Mazda battery may be significantly affected by 40 degree temperatures, resulting in a loss of one-third of its capacity.

My internet connection consistently has frequent disruptions, occurring virtually on a daily basis. I am quite frustrated since I rented this automobile with the intention of reducing my petrol expenses, but it is not achieving that goal. During my daily journey to work. The maximum distance on a full charge is now limited to 14 miles. I feel somewhat deceived by my Mazda, or maybe I have acquired a defective vehicle. We welcome ideas from everyone. The dealership is uncertain about the cause of the problem.

Short update... I went to the dealership, but the dealer neglected to record my arrival in the book. I arrived at a unit that was closed and locked. I arrived before the opening time, but half an hour after the opening time, there was still no customer present. I promptly contacted the dealer, who informed me that he was delivering another car to a customer because he believed he had time available on that day. I had planned to go up this weekend, but he arrived at my workplace yesterday instead (covering a distance of approximately 50 miles). The test drive was satisfactory. The car was a non-smoker, so there were no unpleasant odours or changes in colour. Although I didn't have time to explore all the features, the ride was smooth, the seats were heated and electric, and the sensors and camera work were satisfactory. The stereo was nice, but not important to me. Both parties have agreed on a part ex value and accepted an offer today. Therefore, we will collect the payment on Thursday. I will upload photographs after they have been gathered and polished. The vehicle in question is a 63-plate dynamic LUX with a black and cream leather inside. The anticipation is palpable.

Desired a larger and more accessible vehicle, since the missus is dissatisfied with the existing car's low height. Considered the option of a 2012-2015 model A8, which is considered understated and offers a good value for the price. However, some of the components are fairly costly. Missus's acquaintance has an evoque, which she believes may possess wingbacks due to its interior being entirely made of red leather. She has personally seen the vehicle and found it to be delightful and sleek. Due of the limited space available in the vehicle, one of the children, who is 6'4" tall, will be accompanying me tomorrow. The vehicle must be an automatic vehicle, specifically a range rover. Additionally, the wife has the ability to drive it sometimes, but only with an auto licence. She will be turning 40 in a few months, so she will be receiving a cat instead.

Hopefully, I will soon become an owner of evoque. Examining a Dynamic Lux on the weekend The vehicle has 13 plates, 2.2 SD4, and has accumulated 60,000 kilometres. It is black. Transitioning from a 2014 Insignia estate after a period of 5 years without any issues, I am now in search of a 4x4/SUV/RR that is more convenient for my spouse to enter. She has expressed dissatisfaction with the low height of the insignia. I wanted something that exudes a touch of opulence.
