  1. I have completed this task on several occasions. The resolution of the matter is not achieved. An Automatic Day/Night option is available. During the period of reduced illumination known as the DARK HOURS, the screen stays in its default DAY mode when selected. The mode does not change automatically.
  2. It seems that the intended meaning may have been overlooked. The functionality of the automated mode in relation to day/night transitions is inadequate. In the automated mode, under nighttime conditions characterized by darkness, the screen persists in displaying the DAY mode.
  3. It has been observed that the brightness of the navigation screen remains high at nighttime, resembling the Day mode. To such an extent that the lane for making right turns is not visible to me. When the Automatic setting is enabled, the device consistently displays the Day brightness setting regardless of the current time of day. The Night mode does not activate automatically. Could someone provide recommendations for resolving this issue? The user expresses gratitude.
  4. I am the owner of a 2006 e60 530 vehicle. While I have not personally encountered the specific issue you have described, it seems to resemble a potential malfunction related to the cooling fan inside the Idrive system. Please access the online forum provided and start by introducing yourself. Share your selections or preferences, and afterwards pose your inquiry, since there is a possibility of receiving a response. The BMW 5 Series Owners Board is a platform dedicated to the community of BMW 5 Series owners. Moreover, in the event that all other attempts prove unsuccessful, it is advisable to establish contact with the individual mentioned below. The subject of this discussion is to the occurrence of BMW CCC (Car Communication Computer) failure and its subsequent impact on the professional business and Idrive system in the E60 model. The focus of this discourse is on the repair process associated with this issue.
  5. I just conveyed the statements made by the owner of the Prius v vehicle. It is probable that the weight in question exceeded the value that he had first disclosed. It was evident that the application of a full trunk lid covering on my 1998 Nissan Maxima exceeded its capacity to remain in an elevated position, necessitating the removal of a portion of the covering material. The weight of the material is inherently substantial. Indeed, it is evident that there exists potential for enhancing the noise component of noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) in my CX 5 GT Reserve. Once I have assessed the level of ease or difficulty involved in accessing the front floor, particularly the front wheel wells and firewall, I may proceed with the task. However, I will begin by focusing on doors since it is a more convenient spot to apply DynaMat. This will be done after the temperatures in the Las Vegas valley drop below 90°F.
  6. Photographs were seen on an online forum dedicated to the Prius v model, depicting a scenario in which the proprietor had extensively applied DynaMat insulation material to the inside surfaces of their Prius v wagon. According to his statement, the additional weight was less than 50 pounds. The removal of the seats, carpets, and roof liner was undertaken. The roof, trunk, all four wheel wells, and the doors were equipped with lining. The individual has a strong interest in high-quality audio and sought the services of a specialized establishment to get the task completed. The total expenditure amounted to $2,000, with the majority of the costs attributed to labor expenses. The individual has previously undertaken the installation of their own head unit and speakers. The CX 5 GT Reserve is equipped with laminated front side windows, which effectively reduce external noise levels. Additionally, the use of a turbocharger serves to mitigate exhaust noise, a characteristic often seen across many turbocharged systems. The noise produced by the turbocharger during the process of spooling up seems to be dampened by the presence of firewall insulation and heat baffles. In recent years, MAZDA has made significant improvements in mitigating noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) in its cars. QUESTION: Does the sheet metal enclosure on the "cold" side of the turbo primarily serve as a heat shield? Regrettably, the limited space on the "hot" side precludes the installation of a thermal turbo blanket.
  7. In which location would you suggest placing a product such as DynaMator KillMat? The term "wheel wells" refers to the recessed areas in a vehicle's body structure that accommodate the wheels. The user inquires about the concepts of a firewall and a trunk. Is the selection of options mentioned above inclusive of all possibilities? I have performed this modification on the doors and trunk of a customized 1998 Nissan Maxima. In the past, I engaged in the activity of autocrossing. Provided assistance to a certain extent. The trunk lid had to be detached due to its excessive weight.
  8. The performance of the BOSE speakers installed in my 2007 Toyota RAV 4 was unsatisfactory. The BOSE speakers installed in my 2019 CX 5 GT Reserve exhibit exceptional audio quality, surpassing the performance of the bespoke speakers I previously had for my Maxima. I express my gratitude to MAZDA.
  9. What is the optimal pricing for the installation of a door lock?The thumb is a digit located on the hand, specifically on the radial side of the hand I incurred an expenditure of £100 due to the need of purchasing a second item, since the first acquisition proved incompatible. In some instances, it is more advantageous to assign certain tasks to individuals who possess specialized expertise. This is one of the options.
  10. The dealer refrains from disclosing the part number until payment has been made. The purpose of this measure is to discourage you from seeking other options and maybe discovering a more affordable alternative. It is likely that the cost of this service at the major dealer will exceed £400. The standard long torx bit is incompatible with the screw used to secure the actuator. Mercedes demonstrates ingenuity by only providing the appropriate tool for removing the specified component. I would strongly advise against doing this task without possessing the necessary equipment and new rivets to ensure successful reassembly. The above hyperlink has about ten distinct part numbers for an outer side rear door lock actuator. However, obtaining the specific component based on the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is the only reliable method to ensure proper fitment of the item. The provided hyperlink presents further numerical data, indicating the presence of four right-hand locks for the rear in this instance. The website provided is a digital platform that offers catalogs and parts specifically for Mercedes vehicles.
  11. One should exercise caution and refrain from succumbing to the allure of an aftermarket door lock. Upon examination, it was seen that the Part number was indeed there; nevertheless, it was noted that the electrical connection had dissimilarities. The determination of whether the connection is a 4 or 6 pin configuration can only be made upon its removal. Unless one has exceptional skills, it is advisable to entrust the task of replacing it to a Mercedes independent mechanic. In order to remove the rivets, it is necessary to use a specialized torx bit, which is only available at authorized dealerships' workshops. The work is of poor quality.The torx bit was obtained by my technician from an acquaintance employed at the dealership. To get the appropriate component, it is recommended to visit the authorized dealer with the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). In the month of June, I procured a Mercedes component, which amounted to £202 after applying a 10% discount. Regarding the part numbers mentioned, it is seen that A204 730 12 35 is included in the Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC), however A204 730 40 35 is not found in the aforementioned catalog.
  12. The spouse expressed a desire for the color Portofino Blue, which has proven to be difficult to locate due to its discontinuation for the year 2024. I discovered a vehicle at LR Treasure Coast in Florida, where the dealer attempted to impose a surcharge of $25,000 over the manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP). However, due to personal beliefs, I declined to proceed with the purchase. I have discovered a vehicle located in the state of Georgia that has only been driven for 2,000 miles. This particular automobile does not include the premium features often associated with similar models. Consequently, it may be considered as almost new, exhibiting no signs of wear or damage. Furthermore, it is priced at a much lower cost of $30,000 in comparison to comparable vehicles.
  13. I am contemplating the replacement of the factory air filter in my 2016 B58 340i with an MST air filter. According to existing literature, it has been observed that the use of aftermarket filters may potentially result in the malfunctioning of the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, leading to the generation of a fault code. Does anybody have any firsthand knowledge with the veracity of this claim? At now, I am using the stage 1 Bootmod3 map and contemplating the installation of a downpipe upgrade, subsequently enabling the implementation of a stage 2 map. Thank you for your response.
