Thank you for your response.

I am in Hawaii. I have had abysmal responses from Mazda and the store. I have own two Mazda CX-90 vehicles in under 12 months, both of which have suffered total failure attributed to the hybrid system, i-stop, and engine malfunction. My first car malfunctioned at 19,200 miles, whereas my second vehicle failed at 18,620 miles. This is intolerable! I have not received a loaner or been informed of the repair duration. I am still awaiting contact from Mazda USA. I was informed that I am on a list for expedited treatment, although I have not received any updates so far. I like the vehicle for its superior interior quality, exceptional fuel economy, and aesthetically pleasing design. I really miss my Mazda; nonetheless, this track record for build quality and dependability is unacceptable. Mazda must own responsibility for its deficiencies. As a very dissatisfied customer, I regret not purchasing a Hyundai or Kia at this juncture. I never anticipated expressing that! However, this is my current situation... I was the foremost advocate for Mazda. Not to the same extent any more!

If your vehicle has less than 15,000 miles and the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) tires have less than 50% tread remaining, the dealer will replace them at no cost owing to a recognized wear problem with the Falkens. If your amount exceeds 15,000, a sliding scale is available that allows for a substantial reduction on the new set. You must inform the dealer of your awareness of the early wear problem, and they will assist you accordingly.

Certain locations will amalgamate batches according to manufacturers' documentation. Provide them with your VIN, and they will return a dozen cans formulated to the same specifications as the original; but, as previously said, they cannot account for ageing. Typically approaches rather closely.

It is encouraging to see that you resolved your issue; nonetheless, I would like to point out that a resting voltage of 12.2V indicates just around 60% charge.

Avoid purchasing a 2024 Mazda CX-90; go for the 2025 model instead.

I find your article somewhat perplexing. I believe you referred to the CX-90 many times when you intended to mention the CX-70. -
Catless IPE headers will become excessively loud to the point of discomfort over time. An IPE would not be my preference. I would commence by detaching the resonator to enhance volume. A mere exhaust modification will not yield 550bhp. It will require an effective remap from a provider such as MSL Performance or GAD.

Concurred. According to my second post, maintaining pressure on the brake pedal resolves this issue.
-
This is logical. Nonetheless, the procedure of engaging the brake pedal, shifting to Park, turning off the engine, and only releasing the brake pedal when exiting the vehicle is firmly entrenched in my routine, likely advantageous as it applies to all automatic vehicles. I did not include the brake pedal in my post, since it is second nature to me; I maintain pressure on it when starting the car until I am prepared to drive, and I keep it depressed while stopping until I am ready to exit the vehicle. Traditional approach?
-
I have consistently performed the following: shift to Park, deactivate the engine, and let the electric parking brake to operate automatically. Similar to you, I am want to understand why this may be seen inappropriate. Delighted to be informed.

No other information! The images depict the side body moulding (garnish) and minor damage to the undercarriage, which is twisted and impeding the rear passenger door. I reside in Salt Lake City, where extensive development activities are underway. Regrettably, it was a substantial boulder!
-
Not at this time! It was necessary to engage the insurance. The undercarriage sustained little damage, and the estimate was elevated. Currently engaged in discussions with the insurance agent and the auto body shop.

Thank you for providing this information!

Hello! I own a 2024 CX-90 TS in metallic grey and am really fond of my vehicle! Regrettably, I struck a rock, resulting in the detachment of the lower railing, guard, or garnishing on the passenger side; I apologise for my uncertainty about the terminology. Does anybody has expertise with this material? Is this repairable by us? I would appreciate any thoughts or advice on the procurement of OEM parts, including relevant part numbers. Thank you in advance!

Enjoy your vehicle. Maintain regular service along with additional oil changes, and it will last for years. The automatic gearbox requires servicing at around 60,000 miles; disregard BMW's "sealed for life" claim, since they do not manufacture the gearbox.

Vito W638: what is the designation of the directional component?
HOV replied to HOV's topic in General Car Chat
I much appreciate your assistance! It seems evident to me that it pertains to portion 143. I apologise for not giving more detailed information regarding my model, but I am unsure how to do so. I believed it was only a single variant of the Vito W638 CDI112. Perhaps what you needed to ascertain is that it is a W638.9? I apologise; if you could direct me on how to proceed or specify the specific information you want and its location, I would provide it. If this fails, I can likely locate that component at a scrapyard, which, while not new, would certainly be in superior shape compared to mine. -

I looked on eBay, but just the automated gear selector is shown for some reason. I am considering a scrapyard where I may locate cheaper alternatives for this. I am uncertain if I need to purchase the whole bundle or only the white component. We will observe. Thank you. -
Vito W638: what is the designation of the directional component?
HOV replied to HOV's topic in General Car Chat
It is partially damaged, however the technician said he has seen others in worse condition that continue to function. I would like not to wait for it to deteriorate in two years. Let us ascertain whether assistance may be offered by someone! Thank you! -
Seek a reputable independent mechanic capable of servicing the iDrive system; this will result in substantial cost savings. When purchasing a vehicle, I would prefer independent service stamps over BMW stamps, since BMW service plans are too lengthy.

Regrettably, I have exhausted all options, including use a USB drive with music files. It accurately "plays" them, however there is no sound. I tried several devices and both volume controls, but to no avail. I also attempted to reset the machine using the little button. I will wait a few further days to see if an update is published; if not, I will contact my dealer again. Thank you!

Greetings! I purchased a Stonic MY2025, which has an issue with the media audio. I lack audio output for music sent over Bluetooth, USB, or Android Auto. Interestingly, the radio and navigation audio function well, even via Android Auto using Google Maps and Waze. I am contemplating if reinstalling the program could resolve this problem; but, to my knowledge, the files for MY2025 are not yet accessible. Do we have any information on the timing of the next update? I have seen information from another source indicating that a new version is expected to be issued this month; however, I am unable to locate any details about it. Thank you!

I cannot be the only one who has encountered this. Honda HR-V 2018 Merely 30,000 kilometres. The front suspension received an advice on the MOT for play in the rear bushes of the lower wishbone on both sides. I was not shocked, since there had always been an unsettling aspect about the front of the automobile since I acquired it. The bushes cannot be purchased individually, necessitating the procurement of the whole wishbones. Upon my arrival to replace them, I was astonished by the poor quality of this design. The front joint has a standard cylindrical bushing, however the rear consists of a substandard component fabricated from excessively soft rubber, with the mounting bolt orientated vertically. The link could be manually adjusted vertically at this juncture and seemed to intermittently touch the chassis. I was not astonished by the warning. However, while attempting to replace them, I discovered that the new ones were identical! I cannot comprehend how Honda is capable of designing anything like this. The MOT examiner seemingly assessed the vehicle based on a flawed design characteristic. I have replaced them, nevertheless the automobile exhibits no discernible change. Moreover, it does not conclude there. I was astonished to see that the drop links for the anti-roll bar include solid ball joints at both extremities. That is a fundamental design problem. At least one extremity of each suspension linkage should be composed of rubber. I replaced these components with new ones included with the wishbone kit; nonetheless, I doubt their durability will be substantial.

The annual mileage is 10,000, which is below the average of around 12,000. This is acceptable, particularly since it is a one-owner vehicle, which is advantageous compared to cars with over three owners in five years.

Greetings. The 19 plate does not exhibit the steering rack problem and may have already addressed the leaking windscreen issue. I recommend obtaining the VIN and verifying that the online service history is current and complete, noting that services are conducted biennially, although many choose for annual servicing. Additionally, use the search box for Evoque issues, where you will discover several discussions, responses, and proposed solutions. However, exercise caution not to be swayed by the pervasive negativity, as many individuals just contribute while experiencing a difficulty, express their grievances, get assistance, and then fail to return. Many individuals here have had the Mk1 from its inception without any issues. I have own my 2017 model for over 5.5 years, and it has performed well, save from the previously noted steering rack and glass problems.
