It is quite evident, indeed. Otherwise, there would be numerous shunts daily, as the majority of relatively new vehicles are equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC).

The brake lights will engage automatically.

Presumably, you are referring to the scenario in which the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) detects a deceleration ahead and engages the brakes; otherwise, a rear-end collision with trailing vehicles would occur.

No, I am referring to all situations. The automobile is decelerating, but I am uncertain if it is utilising the engine or the brakes to do so. I believe it would be beneficial for the vehicles following you, as the braking motion might be quite abrupt.

Are you referring to the manual gear shift option?

Does the brake light activate when decelerating the engine when utilising adaptive cruise control?

Once it is repaired, you are familiar with the vehicle, hence I would retain it.

I have also found the drive to be excellent. It is now a dilemma whether to sell and obtain some cash or to utilise it until the engine dies. The Mini I possess, which is an enjoyable vehicle, is currently idle. BMW on weekdays, Mini on weekends. BM just pertains to the journey between work and home. I am not exerting any pressure; my son desires it, but he lacks the financial resources for necessary repairs. One often encounters the dilemma of either selling or purchasing another's issues, or retaining them due to familiarity with their resolution.

Somewhat unfortunate on your initial BMW experience. Do not be discouraged by this unfavourable beginning to ownership; if the car was inexpensive, it was so for a reason, and I believe you have uncovered those reasons. I have a 2007 3 series diesel auto that the lacquer has failed on roof and bonnet that i must sell but i have been saying that since April but it is such a reliable car i have done nothing to sell it just given it a run now i even insured it again recently but 3 cars is 1 too many lol. subsequently

Greetings to everyone. I have recently acquired a BMW, specifically a black 318i M Sport, aside from the BMW-manufactured Mini. It presents a striking appearance. Vehicle appears immaculate both externally and internally upon first observation. It has only been a week, and the differential has malfunctioned. A few days later, rear wheel bearings and rear brake discs. A week subsequent to that repair, the water pipe connecting the expansion bottle to the radiator failed.Fortunately, since the vehicle was immobile, there was no damage to the engine when the water depleted. The battery discharged while I awaited parts, necessitating the purchase of a jump starter battery. The engine light is illuminated, although the vehicle retains ample power and has not entered limp mode. The vehicle has accumulated 145,000 miles and has had six previous owners prior to my acquisition. Acquired it due to its affordability, although it may have resulted in an endless cycle of maintenance. it is a nice drive, the Auto transmission changes quite smoothly and the M sport feature works perfectly. The full leather seats, air conditioning, lowered sports suspension, and body package render it visually striking.

I possess the PHEV and regret not selecting the inline 6 instead. I have encountered no problems, except for a recall, but I do not consider the fuel efficiency to justify the trade-off regarding price and resale value. Prior to the expiration of the tax advantage, they offered absurd lease options for anyone wishing to experience the product before making a purchase. I am pleased to be merely leasing my. I appreciate the vehicle but would prefer to forgo the powerplant.

I cannot provide feedback on a PHEV CX90; but, I can attest that my MHEV (standard six-cylinder turbo) CX90 has performed flawlessly for 39,000 miles. The original tires remain, with a minimum of one additional maintenance period (10,000 miles) remaining. Only underwent standard maintenance and a few software updates for recall concerns that I did not encounter. My MHEV achieves between 26 and 30 miles per gallon on ordinary fuel and possesses sufficient acceleration to rapidly exceed legal speed limits.

I possess a 2024 Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV). I appreciate the car; yet, it presents an excessive number of issues. Maintain distance. I have taken mine to the shop over thirty times. Not worth the inconvenience. It is hoped that they will resolve issues as they progress.

I am exceedingly satisfied with the MHEV. Turbo S Performance Package

I purchased my 24 CX90 PHEV from a local Mazda dealer last December and am quite satisfied with it. The hybrid malfunction indicator illuminated a few days post-purchase. Returned it to the dealer, the issue was resolved, and no other problems have occurred.

I possess a 2024 CX-90 PHEV. We encountered initial issues mostly linked to software. The sole mechanical problem was the hot water heater. Mazda received a defective shipment from a supplier. For the past 1.5 years, it has been entirely devoid of issues. However, I comprehend your reluctance. Consumers are providing highly favourable reviews about the 2026 Toyota RAV4 PHEV.

I have a 2024. I adore it. Following the adjustment of the recall settings, she operates exceptionally well. I could not be more content.

I completely concur; I possessed a PHEV for two years and encountered recurrent Hybrid System and Engine Malfunction issues that intensified with the vehicle's age. This occurred twice when I initiated it in the dealership lot after the repairs were purportedly finished. Moreover, transitioning from an electric vehicle motor to an internal combustion engine may occasionally result in a jolt. This would continue to occur despite all the updates.

Subpar automobile. Refrain from purchasing. My vehicle was defective, and it appears that the flaws have yet to be resolved. While not all of them may be defective, numerous owners have claimed similar persistent problems. Despite its amazing interior and aesthetic appeal, the vehicle's inherent issues render ownership undesirable. Exquisite concept. Abysmal execution and engineering. Not prepared for public presentation.

Forego the PHEV variant; if your true desire is a plug-in hybrid, simply acquiesce and purchase a Lexus TX. I have owned my 2025 MHEV for 8 months and 8,000 miles without encountering any troubles thus far. It is a great vehicle, significantly superior to our 2019 CX-9 Signature, which we sold with 80,000 miles on it.

I am contemplating the purchase of a 2024 CX-90 PHEV in Artisan Red; however, initial year issues and general dependability apprehensions have significantly deterred me. While test driving a 2024 model with 19,000 miles in Houston, the vehicle displayed a hybrid system malfunction error before exiting the parking lot. Uninspiring. Furthermore, I do not earn a substantial income, and the prospect of expending $2,000 every 20,000 miles on tires is unappealing. I presently operate a 2016 CX-9 with more than 175,000 kilometres. I have solely performed routine maintenance. I anticipated that the new CX90 would provide comparable reliability, although I remain doubtful. I am uncertain whether Mazda has resolved the concerns with this vehicle. I wish to purchase this automobile. My heart affirms positively. My mind unequivocally rejects the notion. Indicate that I am incorrect.

From a specialist in alignment.... Is adhering to the road's camber customary? Indeed, it is typical for a vehicle to veer or "drift" marginally towards the lower side of a road's camber. This is attributable to the design of roadways for drainage, a characteristic referred to as road crown. Reasons for Vehicles Adhering to Camber Roads are deliberately constructed with a little curvature, known as a "crown," where the centre is the apex, facilitating water drainage towards the gutters. A vehicle inherently follows this incline due to gravitational forces and its alignment specifications. Normal Drift: On standard roadways, which are frequently sloped to the left for drainage in right-hand drive nations such as the UK, a vehicle will subtly veer in that direction. A slight, continual steering correction will be automatically implemented to maintain the car's straight trajectory without conscious thought. Differential Sensitivity: Certain vehicles exhibit greater sensitivity to road camber than others, influenced by elements such as suspension architecture, steering mechanism, tire dimensions, and alignment parameters (e.g., caster and toe). Adverse Camber: When navigating a road with an atypical or opposing camber (e.g., on the incorrect side of the roadway or an elevated curve), one will observe the vehicle veering in the opposite direction, indicating that the road's slope, rather than a defect in the vehicle, is the source of the issue. When to Express Concern A mild drift is typical; however, a strong, continuous, or exhausting drag indicates a potential problem that necessitates examination. A professional inspection of your vehicle is advisable if you encounter: A notable force exerted even on ostensibly level or opposing-cambered roads. Irregular or accelerated tyre degradation. A steering wheel that remains perpetually misaligned while driving straight on a flat road. The issue manifested abruptly following contact with a pothole or curb. A professional four-wheel alignment by an expert may guarantee that your vehicle's geometry adheres to the manufacturer's guidelines, thereby reducing the impact of road camber to a normal, manageable level.
