Greetings, everyone.I possess a 2019 Toyota CH-R vehicle. I typically encounter difficulties when initiating it. Which type of battery should I utilise to resolve this issue? Kindly recommend a battery model along with its capacity.

Apologies, I should have mentioned that he stated the need to inspect the electrical system to see why the fuse has melted.

The fuse box has finally arrived today. An automotive electrician stated the other day that it is necessary to do a check.

Thank you, both wonderful members. Ewa was extremely anxious; I was in a dire situation, and the automobile seemed irreparable. I will address the fuse box issue. I am elated; thank you.

According to OmahaKnot, the last two digits vary due to differing manufacture dates.

It should be acceptable. I suspect the final digit is related to the month of manufacturing. When I search for part numbers, they typically consist of 8 digits comprised solely of numerals.

I require the replacement of the engine compartment glove box for my Ford Focus Mark One. The model number is 98AG 14A076 A F. However, one listing on eBay differs by a single letter, concluding with a 'a.' eBay has stated that it is compatible. What are the opinions of forum members?

Michelin Pilot Sport PS4 or Goodyear Asymmetric is my preference. I have installed them on both of my E63s and find them impeccable. Any option except Pirelli P Zero, however their new tyre seems to be well-received.

+1 for Goodyear Eagle Asymmetric 6 summer tires. Although I have just utilised them for approximately six months, their performance is commendable. Exhibits substantial traction, performs admirably in heavy rainfall, and is reportedly durable as well. Somewhat on the higher end regarding cost.

Another endorsement for the Goodyear Asymmetric 6.

Your friend Dave achieved a speed of 155 mph using inexpensive Chinese tires on the back and while carrying previous cargo?

Thank you very much! I will certainly refrain from purchasing those Chinese tires. I do not desire conventional 'tank slappers'!

'Four-wheel drifting"?

We utilised ContiSport 5P tires on Angie’s SLK55, which exhibited excellent grip unless excessively challenged.

I have installed Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric tires on multiple vehicles over the past few years. Silent, comfortable, excellent wear rates, and superior traction in both dry and wet conditions.

Simultaneous oversteer and understeer? Is that not more accurately described as lateral movement?

Numerous advice from fellow users are available (also refer to the approximately three million other tyre threads on this forum).However, following an encounter over the weekend, I can definitively say "no" to the Chinese Autogreen tyres. A buddy recently acquired a pristine 318i coupe equipped with a set of these very pleasing tires, which are evidently brand new and installed to meet MOT requirements prior to sale at no cost. They are not outdated inventory, as they bear a date mark from late 2024. He is having them replaced this week. He visited and took me on a drive merely to demonstrate their poor performance. I have owned several Chinese tires; currently, my E350 CDI is equipped with a set of "Sunwide" rear tires, installed by the previous owner for the MOT. To be candid, I intended to replace them, but they are satisfactory.I anticipated his tires to be subpar yet acceptable for the price; nevertheless, that was not the case. Intimidating is the term; it was arid and refined. The formidable 318i engine could effortlessly surpass traction even at moderate cornering velocities, and at the very least, it provided ample auditory alerts before to losing control.They are, in fact, consistently audible. Those tires have endowed the car with the capability to experience simultaneous oversteer and understeer! The owner possesses considerable driving skill and enjoys the experience, having been well-instructed. However, a typical budget-conscious driver utilising these tires for family transportation could easily find themselves in a precarious situation, potentially ending up in a ditch. It is astonishing that these tires are available for sale. Unpleasant...avoid!

The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires on my 2019 E63S estate perform excellently, save for occasional skidding at low speeds on cold tires during winter. However, I also possess a set of winter tires that I switch to when this issue becomes excessive.

I am presently utilising Bridgestone tires on my 2016 SLK 300 AMG Sport. They are satisfactory. Relatively quiet and notably comfortable. Nonetheless, I remain unconvinced by their grip levels, especially under wet or greasy road conditions. I recently experienced a failure of the NSF wheel speed sensor, which disabled the ABS, stability control, and several other unexpected functions, including an alert to reduce speed when I was parked and attempting to raise the roof. Had to deactivate the engine, re-engage the ignition and raise the roof using the batteries. Following a period of rainfall, I exited a roundabout at 3 o'clock and was perhaps somewhat overzealous with the accelerator. An spectacular 'tank slapper' occurred, which I barely managed to control. No. 2 Son (GR Yaris) advocates for Michelin Pilot Sports; nonetheless, what suggestions do you have for optimising grip? As a lifetime automotive enthusiast, I currently drive minimal mileage, approximately 5,000 to 6,000 miles annually. All feedback is appreciated.

There may be an issue; nevertheless, the sensation of speed between cars will likely be minimal. The X6 has four-wheel drive, which may affect its initial acceleration. As previously said, a thorough diagnostic is necessary. No competent remapper would undertake a remap without doing a comprehensive BMW software problem diagnosis.

🫠

It is premature to proceed with the remap; diagnostics must be conducted to ensure the system's health, since a vacuum problem may be impairing turbo functionality. I would not consider removing the DPF; some years ago it may have been feasible, but current regulations are stringent, making it not worth the inconvenience.

I have just transitioned from a 430d F32 to an X6 40d E71, and I must admit that after a few days, I find myself quite disappointed. I understand they are fundamentally different vehicles, but I anticipated more speed. Would a remap and DPF removal enhance its performance? Perhaps we might consider the removal of the EGR valve and swirl flaps together.

Thank you! I will certainly refrain from using those Chinese tires. I do not want conventional 'tank slappers'!
