  1. I had a mechanic friend examine it, and the issue pertains to the brakes. The brake pad has dislodged from the calliper and, while reversing, becomes lodged between the calliper and the calliper mount. Thank you for the response, however.
  2. I have consulted the Mazda dealer, who concurred that the issue likely pertains to the gearbox. However, as my brother owns the vehicle and is reluctant to visit a dealer due to the high costs, I am posting this inquiry to ascertain if anyone has experienced a similar problem or has insights regarding the matter. I suspect that the bearings within the gearbox may be damaged.
  3. My brother operates a 2009 Mazda 3 hatchback with a manual gearbox. He informed me today that his car cannot reverse, as if something is obstructing it or as though the parking brake is perpetually engaged, however this issue does not occur when he drives forward. I suspect it pertains to the transmission, although he contends it relates to the brakes. Does anyone possess insights regarding its nature?
  4. Greetings, I seek to have my MS85 2015 RWD modified with a coolant delete in the UK but have encountered difficulties in locating an appropriate garage. Residing in Hertfordshire, I am now considering a garage named ‘Tesla Specialist Birmingham,’ which primarily promotes itself on Facebook and has numerous posts indicating positive experiences in this domain. However, I am quite apprehensive over its absence of an online presence, as it lacks a conventional website. It has favourable evaluations on Facebook; nonetheless, I would like to ascertain if anyone here has utilised it and had a positive experience.
  5. Thank you for your comprehensive response. It elucidates all the information I required had I perused the instruction.chuckle: Thank you all for your cooperation. Greatly appreciated.
  6. You are entirely accurate. As is customary, I neglected to peruse the user manual before to commencing operation. Thank you for your contribution.
  7. Thank you, everyone; it is really appreciated.
  8. Hello, I seek assistance. I entered the vehicle and activated the start button as usual; but, when I attempted to shift into forward or reverse gear, no response occurred, and it remained in the park position. I attempted to power cycle multiple times, but it proved ineffective. I observed that the door handle was in the open position, so I exited the vehicle and secured it using the remote. However, when re-entering, the situation remained unchanged. After approximately 10 minutes, it displayed the "ready" notification, and everything was functioning properly once more. Was I at fault? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. In addition, I am fond of the car. I appreciate your cooperation in advance.
  9. Thank you for that; nevertheless, this item requires hardwiring into the vehicle. It is not a standalone unit.
  10. Greetings, everyone. I own a 2016 CLA200 Shooting Brake and want to add a front-facing dashcam. I am seeking a wireless option to avoid unsightly cables. I have been informed that they exist and function well, however I am unable to locate any. Has anybody experienced or heard of these? And if that is the case, where are they located? Seeking one that is simple to install with few complications. Thank you, everyone.
  11. Where can I get battery servicing, charging, or conditioning in Aberdeen?
  12. I am operating a Mercedes A200, and the screen recently displayed "Stop Vehicle, Leave Engine Running." The battery voltage is below expectations due to insufficient information. Sent to a friend's recommended workshop to measure the battery voltage, which registered at 12.45V. Has anybody encountered this previously? Uncertain if the issue is to the battery or the alternator. Will the problem code disappear after replacing the battery? Please recommend workshops for the completed requirements as well. I appreciate your assistance in advance.
  13. My perspective differs little. I believe that a hundred percent capacity is sometimes a historical need for LFP batteries at now. Based on my observations of several presentations on EV batteries, it is advisable to maintain a number below 75% for the sake of lifespan. I typically charge to 70% most of the time, and when I want a wider range, I charge to 100%. This seems to extend the battery's longevity, particularly after its use in the electric car. Research indicates that consistently charging to 100% may have adverse long-term consequences on the battery; nevertheless, the vehicle is likely to succumb to rust before these battery concerns arise.
  14. There are two options for linking your phone to the GPS system. First, activate tethering on your phone and connect the vehicle to the phone's hotspot. The vehicle will thereafter use the phone's data to provide real-time services, such as traffic updates and local fuel pricing. Utilising a USB connection enables access to Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, along with its associated functionalities, like mapping and navigation. Many members like using Android Auto or Apple CarPlay for navigation and music streaming.
