  1. My resurrection seems to have unintentionally set something in motion 😎.
  2. Honestly, I don't know the answer, but I think that's the reason the administration is blocking me from accessing my Smart320 account. I don't even own a Mercedes, so I don't understand why anyone would want to pose as me 🀣.
  3. Good day, I have come back to life. I used to be Smart320, but I had a bit of a password mishap, forgot it, and then realised the email address I had used to sign up was no longer associated with a working provider. I had to sign up again as a new member because the administrators never responded to my request to access my account. Just bought a new kitchen to make my wife happy (and since I do most of the cooking, I have the benefit of some new hi-tech lighting and appliances, just not the mobile kind), but I still haven't gotten a new motor. I'm driving my wife's old Rav 4 and thinking fondly about my SLK 55. In any case, I'm still having fun on the forum, and I'm glad to report that my health is on the upswing following my bouts of pneumonia and heart failure; I was recently informed that my heart is functioning normally, and it's likely that I contracted a virus simultaneously with my pneumonia; thankfully, I've recovered, though my lungs aren't quite back to normal just yet. In any case, it's good to be back, if by a different name.
  4. Indeed, I conducted research today and it appears to be a CCV problem. I undertake an excessive number of brief excursions and insufficient lengthy journeys.
  5. You could be correct, yet there is no evidence suggesting a CCV issue. The vehicle operates as anticipated. I shall persist in observing it. It has consumed one litre over a span of three months or 3,000 miles. That adheres to BMW's regulations, so I am not alarmed. The service might merely be a happenstance, yet I have an aversion to happenstances!

  7. F31 Petrol 320i M 2018 with 63,000 miles Despite the advancing age of my vehicle, I cherish it and have no plans to replace it. It has not consumed oil previously, yet it has utilised a litre in the three months following the last oil change. Performed by a BMW expert rather than an authorised dealership. I will replenish it for the rest of the service period, but could someone suggest the highest quality oil for the subsequent change, irrespective of price. I appreciate everyone. A slight complaint directed at BMW. Could we obtain a dipstick, please? Electronic measurement is satisfactory until doubts arise regarding the sensor's reliability.

  9. Additionally, I've heard nice things about the ICarSoft devices, but I don't know enough about them to give you my honest opinion. However, I do think that some of the devices can do some coding and resetting. If you don't already have a way to read error codes, here's a link to one of the devices:
  10. So far, I have not encountered any error codes, and I have not made any changes. At 200,000 km, I just want to perform routine maintenance by changing the oil.
  11. Greetings, everyone, After changing the oil in the transfer case, is it necessary to make an oil reset or adjustment? Formula 26 20d
  12. I believe the 7-year Kia warranty may be transferred to a new owner, so even if you buy a used approved car, you'll still be protected for any ICCU concerns for the rest of the warranty. Just be sure to check with the dealer about the specifics of the warranty coverage. Additionally, I would assume that a certified Kia dealer would have the ability to view the whole record of maintenance for any car.
  13. I took your suggestion to heart and went back down to try again; this time I was successful in removing it. Using a pair of grips, I was able to pop the nut up and onto the thread. Now I'm waiting for my new motor to arrive, but in the meantime, I'll just put a couple of washers on it.
