  1. Indeed, a defective engine oil level sensor appears possible.
  2. I never thought I would see a day when everyone on a forum is pleased with a company that delivers vehicles in good condition... usually, the discussions revolve around scams, misleading practices, and so on.
  3. Hi all, Just to balance things out I bought a 2021 VW Passat estate from Glenside in July. I spoke to a guy named Daniel there who explained everything in plain english he even sent me a photo of the logbook and hpi report before i paid. I’d use them again without hesitation.
  4. The DPF has been removed and reprogrammed, and the EGR has been deactivated, sealed, and disconnected.
  5. The error is as follows... Hello everyone, I have been experiencing an intermittent issue with my 2008 Mini 1.6 HDi for an extended period. 3F6F air mass sensor, mass value implausible Any attempts I have made to rectify the situation have proven ineffective. I replaced the MAF sensor, but it made no difference. Turbo is new; all intercooler piping and vacuum lines have been inspected or replaced, and the intercooler appears to be in satisfactory condition. Replaced the boost solenoid Replaced the inlet manifold along with new seals. Installed a pre-owned throttle body and a new boost sensor. This error is entirely arbitrary. I can drive 1 mile before it enters limp mode, or 150 miles till it enters limp mode. Power cycling resolves the issue. The only aspect I have not investigated is the injector seals, as there is no evidence of black death surrounding the injectors. The vehicle has undergone DPF removal, EGR system deactivation, and has been reprogrammed and disconnected. The vehicle idles smoothly, produces minimal smoke, and delivers excellent fuel efficiency. Any suggestions? Thank you.
  6. Register the vehicle on Motorway or Carwow. It will provide insight into the trading values. This provides insight into the desired selling price. Best of luck
  7. 33mm will protrude beyond the advised dimensions. Most Mercedes wheels are positioned too deeply inside the wheel arches for my preference, necessitating spacers for an aesthetically pleasing appearance; hence, an extension of around 10mm may enhance the visual appeal.
  8. I consider myself fortunate to be retired and own many vehicles, allowing me the opportunity to contemplate matters without pressure. As is often the case, if I were to do another, it would be far simpler and more expedient (albeit it is unlikely that I would do so again). 😉🤞
  9. Indeed, as you said, it is a snug fit. I successfully extracted it, but I had to detach the coolant pipes and the fan housing, which was not referenced in any YouTube videos or postings. This facilitated the removal of the alternator and turbo, eliminating the need to disassemble the exhaust manifold.
