Transition to LFP battery.

We used ContiSport 5P tires on Angie's SLK55, which exhibited excellent grip until excessively challenged.

For nostalgia, it would be the vibrant M30B30 / M30B35 from the E34. For contemporary daily tasks, I utilise the M57 in my F11.

Unless extensively modified, an induction kit serves just as decorative enhancement, providing no substantial performance improvements, and in my view, produces an unsatisfactory sound in diesel engines.

The vacuum pump is likely the issue; although they are generally reliable, later models are known to seize. A pre-owned item is inexpensive to purchase and simple to install.

I'm a bit late to this discussion, but please take a moment to review your arch liners. I’ve observed that on one side at the front, there is a small hatch, which I assume is for accessing the back of the headlight. On that same side, it appears to have dropped enough to create a gap in the plastic. Driving in the rain can lead to water being sprayed directly into the back of the headlight module, precisely where the ballast control modules are located, which over time may result in water ingress. This may not address your current problem, which seems to be related to either coding or a blown fuse, but it could help prevent a recurrence.

Some individuals may dispute me, but is there not a concern with our older vehicles (I own a 2009 A5 3.0 TDI) where the positioning of the computer and fuses in the trunk allows water to infiltrate, perhaps causing various malfunctions?

My dealer is Vospers located near Exeter. I have not received it yet, since the vehicle will not arrive until next week; nonetheless, they proposed it as a complimentary item during the talks.

This data seems to correlate with the price stated by my dealer (£759 for a CX-30 G), although it is published on the Mazda UK website, suggesting it may represent the national pricing. It specifies that it must be conducted at "a Mazda Approved Dealership," which suggests any authorised dealer to me.

It seems peculiar, does it not? I am uncertain, since I have not yet received mine; but, based on my dealer's explanation of its use, I believe the service plan may only function as an insurance policy that one claims against when a service is performed. Glad to be proved incorrect on that, since it seems to be a tedious task.

Certainly, no individual would purchase a service plan if it were limited to a single dealer. What if you relocated to a different region? My service plan was £759 for three years, but was provided at no cost due to my negotiated discount.

Not a problem, I am pleased to assist. In addition to Mr. Macspot's statement, if you discover that you are experiencing intermittent bursts of light from other vehicles, you may make temporary modifications to the alignment of your headlights using the following method:

Regrettably, our self-levelling lights do not allow for manual adjustment.

If your vehicle is equipped with auto-levelling, it is likely that it has projector xenon headlights, which should also provide flat beams. There are just two hours left before sunset! 😁.
