Why is a 208k X5 3.0d Sport Auto going for £1600?
nimbuye5 replied to vitessear3's topic in General Car Chat
In my opinion, you won't know until you take it for a spin. While these vehicles can certainly continue for a great distance, 208k miles is likely over the limit. -
The glass sunroof really opens up the cabin, giving the impression of more space and light.

😊Hi there

Annoying issue that I need to ascertain if others experience.
nimbuye5 replied to honeycut_mazda5's topic in General Car Chat
Negative, I have not. The nearest information I received indicated that the front radar was unable to detect any objects. It was also a clear day. It occurred once and has not recurred thus far. I am uncertain whether your issue would generate any codes. It may be beneficial to investigate it. -
The VW 1.4TSi generation was characterised by timing chain elongation and wastegate complications. As previously said, a Mercedes forum is likely not the most suitable venue for obtaining help.

Hello everyone, I have resolved the issue; it was a fuse in the engine compartment. -

The vehicle fails to crank entirely; I am enquiring whether the fuel cut-off switch would allow it to crank or not. -
I sustained an accident in my 2015 Vito W447. The battery is functional, but when I attempt to start the vehicle, it does not engage; only the ignition lights illuminate. I have replaced the pyro fuse. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Should the vehicle start with the airbag lights illuminated?

Temporary spare tyre with Bose audio system?

I assert that the specification 135/80/17 - 103M is compatible with vehicles equipped with 18" standard wheels, including a 114.3mm pitch circle diameter and a hub diameter of 67.1mm. -
Where can I get new microswitches for the Z4 E89 boot?
nimbuye5 replied to nimbuye5's topic in General Car Chat
I successfully installed the replacement switch independently; I severed the wires and used a heat-shrink solder connection, which functioned well. Total cost: £55, in addition to a Saturday morning. -

To conclude this discussion, it seems that the most economical option for purchasing these items is the BMW spares counter. £55 per unit. In all other instances I examined, the prices exceeded £70. -

Your assistance is much appreciated; thank you. The component is priced at $21 on that website, although it appears as £65 at the point of purchase. Indeed! -
I have conducted diagnostics and am seeking to replace the boot microswitches on my 2013 E89. Has anybody purchased these recently? I am have difficulty locating them online. Any assistance would be highly appreciated.

To confirm accuracy, I often detach a wheel and measure the disc diameter in situ; sometimes, a visible component number is present on the brake pads, but this is not always the case.
-
Given that it is 2024, the original battery should be covered under warranty since it is less than one year old.
-
I will address it tomorrow morning. I really appreciate it.
-
Do you intend to clean the contacts?
-
Thank you for your response. I used INPA to decode the codes, but no pertinent information emerged. I should consider acquiring a pre-owned LCM for testing purposes.

Greetings, everybody. I am experiencing two issues with the lights on my E39. They may or may not be connected. The first issue is that my turn signals flash every 5-7 seconds without any corresponding indicator on the dashboard; there are no arrows or clicking sounds. The second issue pertains to the majority of the lights, including headlights, turn signals, dashboard, and danger switch lighting. The lights flicker irrespective of the engine's operational status (I presume the alternator). Notably, as I rotate the wheel to decrease the dashboard light, the flicker becomes more pronounced and slower. The mechanics I consulted exhibited a lack of confidence, with one suggesting that I resolve the issue independently. I attempted to unhook each bulb individually, but that was not the issue. Kindly assist.

Thank you everybody for your responses. It seems that, at my trim level, they are not intended to be activated. It is somewhat frustrating because after paying $50,000 for this car, it does not allow for the activation of the LED strips during the daylight, unlike almost every other vehicle on the road. Absurd. However, I am assured that the car is running properly.

I said in my post that they are activated in the settings.
