This is an excellent photograph. -

I do not own one, nevertheless, it was the first mechanised entity that I was able to use. My friend's younger brother discovered a deserted one, and we joyfully rode it until it was stolen by someone. Presumably, the individual's age was about 16 or 17. Abundant enjoyment. -
Previously, I had a radiator that exhibited a leakage phenomenon when it reached a moderate temperature, neither too hot nor excessively cold. I discovered the issue when I started the vehicle's ignition after it had been idle for a while and drove it for a little distance before parking. This is not my usual routine, since I had just retrieved the car from a service and brought it back to my office parking lot, covering a distance of less than two miles. Fortunately, the parking lot had a gentle incline, and as I approached the front, a significant puddle or stream was seen, originating from underneath the vehicle. Upon seeing the potential risk of being left without coolant, I promptly drove home with great caution. However, upon arrival, I saw that the engine had already reached its optimal temperature and the leakage had ceased. If I hadn't coincidentally found it, I suppose using fluorescent dye might have allowed me to locate it.

I believe it will be necessary to start the setup process by using suitable diagnostic equipment in order to observe the next events. Since you already have a new front level sensor and bracket, it would be advisable to also inspect the rear sensor. The credibility of the sensor readings and the state of the connecting rod.

Om642 keep inlet port shut off motor delete or install a new one ?
AmericaMonster replied to Anabroo's topic in General
If that is the situation, I would install the motor. -

I think the op is a 2007 car so that ship has sailed . It’s an 8+ hour Labour job to have the manifolds removed (same as the oil cooler seal replacement) and £200 ish for the inlet motor . Soon adds up . Thats why I have left the £1 resistor in place until I’m forced to pay the £1000 for the oil cooler leak . -

He probably doesn’t have a dpf , my 2009 does not . Proper fix , absolutely all day long but he won’t with the new inlet motor have any change out of £1200 . -

If there were to be a future occurrence of an oil cooler seal leak, it would need the removal of the intake manifolds for cleaning purposes. Currently, I am considering replacing the inlet motor. However, whether or not I will still own the vehicle at that time remains uncertain. -

I have been using the resistor for an extended period of time. Initially, I saw a minor enhancement in engine braking when releasing the pedal. However, other from that, I have not seen any other changes. Based on my limited comprehension, I believe there could be two potential problems that might impact the intake motor. 1) The swirl flaps are becoming stuck due to the accumulation of debris in the intake manifolds, necessitating their removal and cleaning to prevent further occurrences. 2) The oil spilling from the orange turbo intake seal has caused damage to the inlet motor. If your issue pertains to point 1, replacing the intake motor will not provide a solution. If the issue is related to point 2, it may provide temporary assistance until the inlet ports get clogged in the future. Do you have both 1 and 2 occurring simultaneously? If all components are functioning well, it is advisable to retain the resistor. -
I will be collecting my EQS 450+ AMG Line vehicle tomorrow.

Pleasant 👌🏼 The colour is graphite grey. -

While I currently have no intention of purchasing an electric vehicle (EV), I absolutely have no interest in purchasing a diesel vehicle (derv), especially not one from Jaguar Land Rover (JLR).It would be as wasteful to just set the money on fire. Fortunately, it is leased. Over time, there will be limited demand for a pre-owned diesel vehicle, not only due to the ULEZ regulations but also because of concerns around Adblue and NOX emissions. Consequently, the value of these vehicles is depreciating rapidly. Currently, fuel is the only viable option for me. -
Exquisite

The plate on it is excellent.

Do they engage in activities involving night vision technology?I have never seen that in my own experience.

The central section of your item differs from mine as it lacks the indentation resembling cups. In contrast, mine is flat. Once the replacement bench arrives, you will be able to determine whether it is compatible. I am intrigued by your seat, however it seems to be a distinct trim from the one I already own. Could you kindly inform me of your location in Scotland?

The configuration you described bears a striking resemblance to mine; maybe all you want is a bench seat. What a remarkable occurrence it would be. Displayed below is an image of the double seat brace mentioned in a previous post, which has been recognised by a forum member with expertise in the subject matter. The yellow cable hanging loosely is likely intended for the sensor in the double seat. It is possible that a resistor is included at the end of the line to prevent the SRS light from being activated. If you want a bench seat, kindly inform me. I own a 2011 model with grey fabric trim that exhibits little signs of wear. I had planned to pursue the GLA seat change, but I am also intrigued by the possibility of acquiring your passenger seat if it is available for sale. If there are no concerns, there is no need to worry.

Your intended course of action is well recorded on this site. I have been a passive observer on this platform for a significant period of time. In my Vito (w639), the bench and driver's seat are supported by a brace that is positioned between the B pillars. The seats you own, on the other hand, are mounted on separate bases. In a few weeks, I want to switch to a dual configuration in the front. However, I am uncertain about its compatibility with the W447. Greetings

Could you please provide the recorded data from the sensor? To be honest, if the issue has been resolved, not returned, and the sensor is now displaying live readings, I would recommend taking the vehicle for a thorough drive at slightly higher than usual RPMs. Alternatively, some people suggest doing a "Italian tune up," which involves using a commercially available DPF cleaning and filling up with high-quality Shell premium diesel fuel.

I hope that resolves the issue. Yes, it is somewhat inconvenient to change that particular component.

Rapid Google seems to cost about £50 and I haven't seen the whole video, but I believe the following link demonstrates how to replace it.
-
I concur with your assumption, my friend. It is possible that the sensor has malfunctioned. Which automobile model?

Firstly, I am not aware of the information... Does your diagnostic tool has real-time data capabilities? If such is the case, I would examine the readings of the corresponding diesel particulate filter (DPF) pressure sensor while the car's engine is running. Additionally, I would observe the readings while the throttle is pressed. Next, do a comparison with the expected values. If there is no indication, it is possible that the sensor has malfunctioned and requires replacement. Certain diagnostic instruments have the capability to do a forced regeneration of the dpf. It may be worthwhile to explore this option. However, it is advisable to wait for someone with expertise in this area to provide more informed guidance.
