A skipped service may result in possible warranty complications. Your supplier dealer will not assist with servicing the car unless they provide an itemised receipt detailing the original Kia components used. The straightforward approach is to refrain from purchasing it unless you are willing to tolerate warranty complications. 😉

Thank you very much. I will investigate this matter. Toyota has been unhelpful in this matter.

Thank you. Excellent observation!

I need an adaptor for my 2023 Prius Prime plug-in hybrid. I want to use the charging port I acquired for the Tesla I had and subsequently lost in a flood after enjoying it for 3.5 years, and had just completed the payments. The connection is available, however I want an adaptor and a cable to use it. I am currently at work and unable to verify, however I believe the Prius charger does not detach from the Prius wire. Does anybody have any feedback?

The 2014 model used a 124R battery; AGM batteries were not introduced until a few years later.

The Hyundai chart indicates that the 2014 model with a 2.0T engine requires a standard flooded battery, specifically a 124R, if memory serves correctly.

I appreciate your recommendations. In summary I have waited for three hours after my return, verified the tire pressures and confirmed they are accurate at 35 psi with no air loss. I am uncertain if the tire facility caused any damage to the TPMS sensors, which I presume are located inside the tire valves. Could someone verify the location of the TPMS sensors? Upon starting the vehicle, the yellow light blinks many times before becoming on. I restarted the vehicle and pressed the reset button centrally for many seconds, nevertheless the light continues to flash. I intend to return it to the tire shop tomorrow unless there are superior recommendations. Thank you.

I have replaced my tires. The dashboard indicated no faults upon departure; but, after five miles, the amber light began to strobe and is now continuously on. Inspected the tires and restored them to standard pressure of 35 psi, then activated the set button located in the glove compartment. The light remains illuminated; do you have any recommendations?

According to torque2me statement. Furthermore, may I enquire about the duration of your automobile ownership and if this issue has persisted from the first day of acquisition?

While taking a stroll this morning, I couldn't help but wonder whether our nation is the only place that values these two really uninteresting and fashionable hues. 🤔 Are the owners of these pricey automobiles deliberately selecting boring hues, despite their high cost? Personal preferences vary, I guess! I abstain from making any more remarks. Experience pleasure or take pleasure in.

What is the price for replacing the front left wishbone?
heralder replied to mrnobady's topic in General Car Chat
I am aware of such information. When I purchased the control arms for my vehicle, the only available options were from the manufacturers MB and Febi. Therefore, I have made my decision. -

If the ball joints are removable, there should be no significant issue. Regrettably, the ball joints on my control arms cannot be removed, making the remedy evident but expensive. It is advisable to get the ball joints from MB. -

heralder replied to mrnobady's topic in General Car Chat
Choose a reputable brand. Which brand is considered the best brand? Each of mine cost 500€, so it seems like a great deal. Presuming that the component is really of high quality. Have you experimented with MB? -

I do not own one, but, there is a fold-down guard available.

Fixing an air leak in the P202B/P2007 system using a DIY method.
heralder replied to paulh2602601's topic in General Car Chat
Highly helpful, thank you. As a very vigilant and inexperienced individual, there are two more points to consider. The pipe is rigid, not flexible. I may be lacking in understanding, but that was not immediately evident to me. Additionally, there is just a sizable jubilee clip securing the surge tank lid located at the rear of the engine. The casting seems to be quite sturdy, and first, I was unable to discern its method of connection. I obtained two photos from an internet movie to provide a slightly altered viewpoint. -
Thank you, another person also brought up this point. Indeed, the particular item in question is a component manufactured by Bosch. However, the only identification number I managed to locate is A1694700293, which has now been verified by physically examining the part installed on the vehicle. None of the motor factors have been able to find any results for this number, and they have confirmed that it is a Mercedes component number. I have dedicated several hours scouring the internet in an attempt to locate a certain Bosch component number, but my efforts have been unsuccessful. It is peculiar that there is no information available in the online Bosch database.

I apologise for the delayed answer. However, I had sent this before leaving the nation for a duration of one month. Regardless.. Thank you very much for the assistance, individuals. Now I will attempt to place an order. I have tried many motor factors without success, since it seems that the only available source is directly from Mercedes. I received a quotation for somewhat more than one metric tonne for a single unit. However, they do not currently have any units available in the nation, and they are unable to provide an estimate of the time it would take to get one for me. Peculiar! Postscript: I will make sure to note the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) for future reference. I am gradually becoming more familiar with owning a Mercedes.

I am experiencing heightened symptoms of my Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, prompting me to address and eliminate a few bothersome sounds emanating from my engine compartment. One component that I suspect to be the alternator pulley/belt is known to often produce noise. However, I am uncertain whether it is worth replacing. The second unit seems to be fixable by changing a certain component, however I am uncertain about the exact name of the component. Additionally, I have been unable to find a part number on the current device. The object seems to be stuck in the intake manifold and is resistant to removal without significant effort. I am hesitant to use force to extract it, as I fear it may incur damage before I can get a replacement. The component in issue seems to be a valve and is connected to a vacuum pipe branded "MOT". Attached is a picture. It seems like there is a loose ball bearing within the object, causing it to make a rattling noise while the engine is running. Could someone assist me in identifying the component? Providing a part number would be really beneficial, but even the name of the component would provide me with a starting point. Thank you very much

What is the missing component of the energy flow monitor?
heralder replied to MotoGravity's topic in General Car Chat
The energy flow metre is unnecessary. It is advisable to closely monitor the tachometer. The handbook provides a comprehensive list of potential causes for the system's failure to deactivate the engine, such as the AC system being set to blast air at the windscreen, the driver not wearing a seatbelt, or the steering wheel not being oriented in the correct direction. Do not excessively concern yourself with it.
