  1. Is the plug at the front the one you are referring to? If such is the case, it is often due to the use of a pressure converter for the cooler bypass. I can identify the difficulty you are experiencing. The split breather pipe is causing issues with the engine's operation and is affecting the plausibility of the EGR and MAS air flow. I would suggest replacing the breather pipe, clearing any error codes, and then assessing the situation to determine its effectiveness.
  2. Could you please provide a photograph of your item so that I may better understand its appearance, since I am having difficulty visualising it based on your description. The previous version of my vehicle, the n47d20a, was equipped with an electronic exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system, but also featured a vacuum-controlled cooler bypass. In some older models, a vacuum EGR valve was also included.
  3. Those are the ones! Yes, I do attach extra pieces to the upper edge of them, allowing them to be placed wherever. I was previously only familiar with Heko, then I came across Ispeed, which had positive ratings. I decided to give it a try, and so far, it has been satisfactory.
  4. The ones I purchased, which I believe are speed line or a similar brand, included metal clips. However, the heko ones I previously had on both my Astra's (Mk3 and 5) did not come with clips. Instead, I used double-sided tape to secure them and kept the windows closed for 24 hours to ensure proper bonding of the adhesive. I never encountered any problems with them shifting or moving. I have used the same procedure to my insignia and, so far, I have not encountered any problems (hopefully, that will continue to be the case).
  5. I have had no problems with mine. If the window sashes are properly positioned in the window channel, they will not interfere with the operation of opening or shutting the windows.
  6. Requesting a new coat of paint! Laugh out loud, flee. Consider this a cautionary notice.
  7. This is the issue. The lock you installed is not an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) product, but rather a poorly built Chinese imitation. As said before, I would always choose a used OEM item over low-quality Chinese alternatives.
  8. Apologies, you are correct. I inquired about my ability to perceive or comprehend when the automobile is in a dpf regeneration mode. Are there any more symptoms, apart from an elevated oil temperature, such as a decrease in power?
  9. Thank you, friend! During the process of regeneration, are additional symptoms, such as a decrease in power, perceptible?
  10. Indeed, my first impression aligns with yours - the symbol shown on the gauge has a striking resemblance to the iconic lamp associated with the character Aladdin. Thank you for your kind feedback.
  11. Greetings, everybody. What is the optimal temperature range for the functioning of a BMW X3 (year 2013) F25 3.0d with 258 horsepower? I saw the needle surpassing a temperature of 100 degrees Celsius. Is this considered typical or within the expected range of behaviour or circumstances? I would much appreciate receiving any technical material on the matter.

    Below, there is consistently an opening for access.
  13. Inspect the fluids in the drive line for any traces of metal residue, since this may provide valuable information on internal wear caused by bearing preloads and gear lash/clearance. Unforeseen events may occur, even while using fresh or rebuilt components. The front end is equipped with brass bushings on the axle stubs to maintain proper alignment of the CV joint. If these bushings are absent, the CV joint may become restricted and could lead to additional damaging consequences. Inspect the play at the ends of the flange.
  14. I have not seen electric Pas systems like the one you mentioned. The Corsa and Mito models do not use fluid in their Pas systems.
  15. There is no presence of fluid; instead, it is powered by electricity.
  16. I would recommend installing a straight pipe exhaust system at this time, since it is more cost-effective. However, please note that you will need the assistance of a cooperative MOT tester.
  17. I used the BimmerCode application, but, I did not come across that specific choice inside the programme. I own two black mambas and one brown mamba, both of which have similar lengths. The duration of pressing the brown mamba is somewhat less than that of the black mambas, but still longer than the doors.
  18. Avoid tampering with the pipes and their connections. It is best to leave things as they are and not attempt to improve the situation by tugging on them. This might lead to unfavourable consequences.
  19. Use a wire or brass brush to clean it, then apply a coating of Vactan or Kurust. Apply a coat of paint and have optimistic expectations. Alternatively, substitute it. PS. Take a brief inspection of your metal brake line pipes, particularly the ones that go out of sight over the rear subframe.
  20. I must express my disbelief, Mazda is now providing CX70 promotions on their official website, and just moments ago, I received a promotional email from Mazda asking me to experience a test drive of a PHEV.
  21. I found this review to be exceptional. Regrettably, it is my belief that the tester in question may have been either malfunctioning or lacking certain software upgrades. The automobile was quite difficult to operate.
  22. Could you please provide me with a quotation for white bucket seats?
  23. Are there white bucket chairs available?
  24. The appropriately sized cutter in my kit failed to make contact with the surface that needed to be cut. I had to remove the shoulder from the cutter by grinding it. I use a digital camera to examine the visage, aided by a flashlight, in order to assess the state of the face. Frequently, I have seen the presence of pitting when the image is magnified on the personal computer. Therefore, it is advisable to further trim and cleanse the image.
