Problem of misfire on a 2008 Audi S5 with a 4.2 V8 engine.

Understood. I acknowledge that the Snap-on tool is of high quality, however it is possible that the VCDS offers more advanced features. -

What is the distance in miles? Can you provide information about the service history? What tools or methods did you use for the required scan? VCDS Ross Tech is a software program. -
NP Boosted air filters specifically designed for V10 engines.

I recently acquired these items and replaced them earlier this week: https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/audi-air-filter-corteco-420133844d -
Thank you. I examined the area under the boot floor, but unfortunately, I could not find what I was looking for. Presumably, the prior owner removed it and neglected to reinstall it. Your guidance is quite beneficial. I have saw the £80 listing on eBay. I am exhibiting stubbornness since a similar item was recently available for £50, but I refrained from placing a bid at the time. I believe I will have to face the difficult situation and make a tough decision. Expressing gratitude!

Greetings, I have just acquired a 23 Sportage, but, it did not have a parcel shelf or load cover. I have seen individuals using MK4 Sportage load covers in an MK3 model, and the terminal connections seem to be comparable. Therefore, I am attempting to determine if I may use an MK4 load cover in my just acquired Sportage. There is a significant disparity in prices across all age categories on eBay. I am being frugal and hesitant to make a purchase without a clear understanding of its potential success. Expressing gratitude!

I installed a third-party application and it works well. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide you with the specific name of the application since I have changed my mobile device. However, I agree that it is quite impractical, particularly due to the absence of a built-in sharing functionality inside the application.

I can go almost three months on a full tank of 89 octane fuel. There are currently no problems with the petrol being old, although it should be noted that I have only driven 4000 miles so far. Indeed, you have the capability to engage in charging while driving, but at the cost of using a little higher amount of petrol. Consequently, instead of achieving the average fuel efficiency of 26 miles per gallon, you may experience a decrease to about 22-24 miles per gallon. I often cover a distance of around 25-30 miles every day, which means that I mostly rely on electric power for my transportation needs. The CX90 has superior interior and exterior aesthetics, yet it is more compact compared to the large Highlander.A seating capacity of 6 will provide a comfortable experience in the automobile, but accommodating 7 passengers may feel quite cramped. I used to spend around $140 per month on petrol for my old vehicle, which had a fuel efficiency of around 23 miles per gallon. Currently, I allocate around $60-70 for the combined expenses of electricity and gas. It definitely saves me a minimum of $70 each month.... I recommend purchasing a lightly used Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) with a Powertrain Protection (PP) plan. These can be found for less than $50,000. Alternatively, consider leasing one. I acquired mine for $650 per month over a 2-year period, with an upfront payment of $1500.

Durability of Generation 2 Magnetic Ride Suspension
Gianni682 replied to bentleygt77's topic in General Car Chat
Stated that Gen-2 is beginning to display comparable issues, if my memory serves me well. -
We own two contemporary Mercedes vehicles, both equipped with the autonomous parking feature. With the exception of the first few days when we tested the system, it works well. However, I am certain that I am able to park the vehicle in a place more swiftly than it can. Consequently, we have not used it since the first week, and I may not even be able to activate the feature at now. Is the function used often by anyone? Furthermore, are you unwilling to make the effort to modify the dashboard layout despite having exhausted all available alternatives when it was first introduced? We are no longer interested in adjusting the interior lighting hue. Hello Mercedes, as all of our acquaintances have seen its functionality. 🙂 Which gadgets on your automobile have you stopped using, or are we part of a small group?

Could someone identify the illuminated button for me?
Gianni682 replied to MotoGravity's topic in General Car Chat
It is my belief that several contemporary automobiles are equipped with TMT (Traffic Management Technology) and NECS (Navigation and Entertainment Control Systems). (Excessive reliance on technology and insufficient application of practical reasoning) ! -

The intended term is "Intelligent" stop and go, however its accuracy is open to debate. Two vehicles, a car and a small car, are depicted. -
The crucial factor is not the charging rate, but rather the duration for which the battery can maintain its charge at that level. The general guideline for battery storage is to keep it at roughly 50-60% capacity. Therefore, charging the battery to 80% a few days before commencing the draining process is more detrimental than charging it to 100% only an hour before beginning the discharging cycle. Regularly discharging your device on a daily basis, even if you charge it to 100% at work, will not have a negative effect as long as the outside weather is not very hot or cold. The only issue you may have is that the final 10% of charging will take longer than the previous 10%.

I encounter the problem mentioned by him on my CX-90, where the rear suspension exhibits excessive vertical movement. This is particularly evident while traversing a roller. The rear suspension exhibits excessive vertical oscillation, resulting in significant airborne displacement of any objects stored in the back cargo space. I have seen the presence of a roller on a certain interstate on-ramp in close proximity to my location, just before to the point of merging into the motorway. Each time I drive my family down this road, all the occupants in the vehicle consistently exclaim "whooah" when we pass over the roller, despite my prior warning about the bump. None of our other cars exhibit similar behaviour.

Refer to the information provided below: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/mot-manuals-and-special-notices It is not recommended to modify halogen headlamp units to accommodate high intensity discharge (HID) or light emitting diode (LED) bulbs. If such a change has been performed, you must deactivate the headlight.
-
Regrettably, LED conversions are prone to this problem, since the advertisements are just deceptive. The only resolution is purchasing from a provider based in the United Kingdom who offers a comprehensive reimbursement policy in the event that the purchased items prove incompatible with your vehicle. (By the way, it is important to note that converting halogen bulbs to LED bulbs is considered unlawful in the UK. These LED bulbs are often marketed with a disclaimer stating that they are intended for off-road usage only. However, this topic is outside the scope of our current discussion.)

Prior to removing the front starting battery, it is important to first disconnect the rear battery negative connection. This is taken from the MB training handbook.
