  1. Yes, you did; it was my error. On two occasions, I have lifted my C55 using the differential, but each time, I have had to remove the metal heat sink, which is a major pain in and of itself. Rip the heat sink bolts, jack the car up one side, lower it back down, jack it under the differential and so on. The idea is clear. It hurts.
  2. Nice piece of writing, but please allow me to add anything. Loosen the filler plug before replenishing the diff fluid.
  3. Hyundai and Kia are enormous wastes of space. Pretty on the outside and utter shit on the inside. You can always find dozens of replacement engines if you go behind one of their dealerships.
  4. The plug-in costs £60. After the first plug-in, any further work will cost £95 per hour + VAT.
  5. You should get real batteries. Connecting it to a Xentry machine will allow for an accurate diagnosis, eliminating the need for guessing.
  6. A monstrous creature, the Jet Black Mica with a crimson inside was our choice. Ceramic coating and PPF will be applied next week.
  7. Of course! Got the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) cushioned cargo liner and all-weather floor mats. Seeing the cargo liner with the integrated extension that shields the back bumper sealed the deal for me.
  8. A PP-trimmed CPO 2025 CX70 PHEV has recently added to our fleet. With the addition of this Mazda, the number of vehicles in the family has grown to five (the CX5 is still there). I live in a place where petrol prices are consistently among the highest in the country, so owning a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle will help me cut down on my trips to the pump. We are now in need of accessories and would really appreciate any suggestions you may have.
  9. Discrepancies appear to exist between the book and actual practices. The official BMW distances or times are unexpectedly lengthy; may this indicate contemporary advancements in manufacturing tolerances, resulting in reduced smoothing of cylinder bores by piston rings, for instance? The machinery that manufacture engines are markedly distinct from those of the past. BMW is not unique; our Golf has endured 7 to 8 years of a comparable maintenance regimen without visits. Should I subject my BMW to the same evaluation? I am quite interested in understanding what members consider to be the acceptable interval or distance to utilise, and whether regular long versus short travels should be taken into account.
  10. Reduce speed; nonetheless, the vehicles are not achieving the designated speed restriction.
  11. Merely validated my initial assumption. It is unfortunate, as this appears excellent, and I have observed W211 models utilising them; it seems the wheel hub differs among the 220, 280, 320, etc. Thank you for your time; nevertheless, I believe the wheels are available for purchase if anyone is interested. 235/40/R18 front Rear tires: 255 or 265/35/18. Front tires were recently balanced before to fitting; rear tires require replacement due to deterioration and sidewall cracking.
  12. I believe that is precisely what is occurring. The question now is how and whether I can accommodate them.
  13. The 5x112 bolt pattern is accurate. The standard centre bore is 66.6 mm; I believe the issue is with the nut, which does not fit through the new alloy wheel. Thank you for your response.
