  1. After I had mine fitted, my friend bought a 2016 Golf, so I placed an order for one and had it fixed as well. It worked perfectly! Reiterating the previous point, I believe there is an option to utilise OEM auto Bluetooth. I used this method, and it was successful even without the included microphone and aux line. Having said that, the screen resolution of the 2011 ProNav BMW is substantially higher than that of the 2016 Golf. There are a plethora of fitting procedure how-tos on YouTube.
  2. I have been using it since June, and I am quite pleased with it. I refrained from installing a camera because I am not good at handling the connections. I don't know what the big deal is if you don't have enhanced Bluetooth; I didn't need to fit the microphone or the aux wire because I had it before. Even though it's my first time using CarPlay on a touchscreen, I despise using them in vehicles and find that iDrive is a good fit for them. Without reservation, I suggest it.
  3. Scoundrels, I already have a ghost installed, but my location is quite safe anyway. I believe I could tolerate 1500 if I were assured it would alleviate all problems and incur no more expenses for around two years. However, I am ambivalent on whether the issue pertains to the injectors in my vehicle.
  4. I was uncertain about the red leather until I observed it in person. I will likely replace a bank now if it is the injectors, but I would need to acquire them second-hand. It is unreasonable to explain a payment of over $550 each injector; it is excessive. It indeed appears exceptional.

    Initial BMW

    Initial BMW, E92 LCI 325i equipped with the 3.0 N53 engine. Acquired at a reasonable price at auction; generally satisfactory, but experiencing a misfire and both banks operating rich. Utilised AI for the wheels, amusingly.
  6. Does it definitely have a diesel particulate filter?
  7. Indeed. News editors mistakenly believe that achieving "balance" throughout a program suffices, disregarding the reality that the language employed in the headline serves as an earworm for the public (voters), who typically engage with only the initial 10 seconds of any topic and overlook the counterargument. Small boat crossings have increased. Allocate £350 million annually to the NHS instead. Many neglect to consider the balance. Currently, headlines are crafted by spin doctors and reproduced by journalists who lack the time to consider the repercussions, driven instead by the need to capitalise on the engagement generated by provocative openings.
  8. "Unparalleled" is effectively ambiguous for marketing purposes. The listener interprets it as unparalleled excellence, yet it is not the message conveyed by the marketing individual. (Similar to headache medication advertisements that claim no other tablet works more rapidly, but disclosing that no unbranded pill operates at a slower pace.)
  9. It is intentionally engineered to prevent revving over the specified engine speed in neutral to minimize the danger of damage. As a certified MOT tester, you are likely aware of instances when unrestricted diesel engines have failed catastrophically during the smoke test.
  10. As previously said, you may contact BMW directly to request the necessary information; they will thereafter provide you with a component number, after which you may deny the purchase.
  11. I would simply request a refund and purchase a functional one, as Johnny has shown that these can be problematic if swarf has reached the injectors.

  13. If your vehicle is equipped with an auto-dimming rearview mirror. The Dongar is an elegant solution.
  14. The fuses are enumerated on the cover of each fuse box.
