Any competent VIN decoder I have used displays just 20 elements.

There are two rubber buttons located on the left side of the driver's knee. To the left of the steering wheel, there is a dual thermostat. What is its function? On the driver's knee, to the left of the steering wheel and underneath it, there are additional switches and a lengthy opening. This area has three horns in the engine compartment. I want a black vacuum rubber hose to link the red plastic line. Where can I get this? Do you have any suggestions about the aforementioned topic?

Thank you for this; I will substitute it.

Is anybody dismantling a W202?

Esteemed Colleagues I have acquired a 1994 W202 C220 petrol vehicle today, which was made in Singapore. Registered in the UK in 1999; can someone assist with verifying this? I have only seen the C220 diesel variant; what is the petrol model? It is equipped with a package using Lorinser alloy wheels. Is this original equipment or has it been added aftermarket? Does the body kit seem to be from an AMG, and was it ordered at the time of purchase? The vehicle operates and runs, although the automatic gearbox needs some care since it seems loose. When you turn the steering wheel to one side, it exerts more force in that direction. Why does this occur? I need the under-bonnet heat liner cover. The inside headlining is drooping; where can I get a replacement? I also need the fuse diagram. The button for the headrest adjustment is malfunctioning. The rear sunblind does not ascend or descend. I need some inside photographs; if any exist? Could someone assist me?

I concur. Acquire a high-quality AGM battery and conclude the matter. The batteries are faulty, not the automobile itself. Mazda recently opted for a low-quality battery with insufficient cold starting power, perhaps due to cost-cutting measures. Investing in a high-quality AGM battery is a wise decision. Although it may need a higher financial investment, you will express gratitude towards everyone if you choose to do so. Additionally, it is advisable to get a trickle charger, a practice that many of us have already used. Excellent investment.

In my opinion, even if there were wire connections for the front fog lights, there is likely to be a problem with the on-board computer system.

I have purchased the Chinese fog lights at a price of £30 each. Additionally, I have acquired the whole stalk that is positioned around the steering wheel. This is necessary since the current stalk on my ed4 vehicle is only designed for the rear fog light.

Good day, everybody. I have a little question for the forum: Is the wiring for the front fog lights pre-installed in the front bumper? I own a 2014 2.2 ED4 5-door vehicle. Thank you to everyone in advance. Greetings

Oil Leak - Replace the CCV vortex with a felt filter?
HOV replied to HOV's topic in General Car Chat
Indeed, it seems that the only viable option is to fabricate a catch can, similar to what others have accomplished with the M57 engines. I found it intriguing that oil began to emerge abruptly from the intercooler to EGR connection. Previously, it was only the manifold. Could an accumulation of crank pressure be the cause? -
Oil Leak - Replace the CCV vortex with a felt filter?
HOV replied to HOV's topic in General Car Chat
The outcome seems to be unfavourable. I regularly monitored the oil level and found that it had remained unchanged. However, I did not specifically inspect the engine compartment for this purpose. Performed maintenance on the vehicle last Saturday and have since noticed a significant oil leak around the EGR, which is a new issue. The leakage occurred only via the manifold when the vortex breather was installed. The toilet paper filter was rather clean, with little oiliness but without any significant blockage. What is the reason for a leak in the EGR while installing the toilet paper breather? -

Have you reverted to using toilet paper for one of your bowel movements? If you did, did you ultimately retain it or revert back to the vortex? Several individuals have reported that reverting to using toilet paper has resulted in a significant increase in central venous pressure. -

The transition from using toilet roll in the E39 and E46 to vortex in 2005 in the E90 and E60, and then omitting it entirely in the last technological upgrade of the M57. I think that the N47 and 57 engines are equipped with a double vortex system. -

I have placed an order for component number 11127793163, which is the assembly and toilet paper filter. -

Recently seen a video on YouTube, and it seemed identical to me. -
Oil Leak - Replace the CCV vortex with a felt filter?
HOV replied to HOV's topic in General Car Chat
Indeed, I remember that. The first item I read does not mention the need for a new house on the M57. I assume that my M47 is constructed in a similar manner. -
I have had my E90 320d for a considerable period of time, and it has consistently experienced an oil leakage issue. Primarily, the intake manifold is located below the coolant flange and above the starting motor. There is a small reservoir located at the top of the engine near the CCV. If a boost hose is not securely fastened, it will leak from that location and also from the EGR delete if it is not correctly installed. A mechanic acquaintance of mine assured me not to be concerned, as this behaviour is common among vehicles. Therefore, when I do maintenance on it, I typically tidy up the untidiness. Over the years, I have made many replacements of the vortex breather in an attempt to prevent this issue, but it continues to reoccur. I regularly need to replenish the oil, since the oil level drops from the maximum to the minimum mark on the dipstick every 2,000 miles. Is it advisable to revert to the previous toilet paper filter design, despite its negative reputation, which is mostly attributed to inadequate maintenance? If I want to use the toilet roll felt filter, do I just need the filter itself? Will it be compatible with my existing CCV housing?

Thank you, honeycut_mazda5...I use it just to scatter dirt onto those Teslas, starting from the headlights. Today, there was a clever and mischievous individual driving a Tesla Model S or Model 3. I disguised myself and drove off-road, taking advantage of the green lights. We were evenly matched for the first three seconds or so, and I can only imagine the agony he had thereafter. LOL.Laughing out loudThe sound of Homura's growl still evokes a strong emotional response, causing goosebumps. I am aware that I should not engage in this behaviour... nevertheless, it is undeniably irrational.In my opinion, we are likely the quickest vehicles on the road, with the exception of a Model X or a modified Porsche. It is rather impressive! -(excluding McLaren and other similar vehicles)

Wow, all of you have been invaluable sources of knowledge and guidance for me. Thank you.Before departing, I would want to provide some information for the records, as a precautionary measure. If another individual arrives seeking information similar to mine. (By the way, the off-road mode, which is often overlooked, completely astonished me! It was courtesy of 'Dread'.) ...May I attempt it now? :sly:...hahaha heh

Thank you. It is not possible to permanently deactivate the safety systems, since they are designed to reset with each drive. This is due to regulations imposed by European bureaucrats. This situation is quite disappointing, especially considering the presence of overcompensated individuals who are unproductive in Brussels. Engaging in unauthorised modifications to your vehicle might potentially result in rendering it inoperable. Unable to comply. Are you unable to determine whether acceleration technique is faster by observing your own car? This would include aggressively pressing the accelerator and conducting a test in a location with less traffic and suitable conditions. However, I was under the impression that the wheel had already been developed in this location, and maybe I might use a lift. Thank you for the advice, it is quite beneficial.

Greetings, everyone. I would want to determine which mode, either the (pure)EV mode or the (regular) mode, offers superior acceleration from 0 to 100. While I acknowledge that the 'sport' mode may provide the highest performance, I prefer to focus on the aforementioned modes to avoid excessive resource consumption. Therefore, I am primarily enquiring about the acceleration capabilities of these two modes. How can I off the car's lane departure correction feature completely? Although I have disabled it in my menu settings, I still see the vehicle making efforts to steer and adjust my position when changing lanes. This carries a significant level of risk. Is there a method to completely and permanently deactivate this feature? Is there a location where I can see the current firmware version loaded in the car? Thank you for any help provided.

The USB ports lack electricity while the automobile is not in operation. I saw this information in the instructions and verified its accuracy during the installation of my dashcam.

If you want this functionality, you have the option to purchase an adaptor.
