  1. In my area, I came across two vehicles: a 2006 WDC1648221A153764 and a 2008 WDC1648221A425361.The 2006 vehicle has been well-maintained and is utilised on a regular basis, although the second option was unavailable from 2013 until November 2025.The gearbox in the 2008 model is newer and has the number 722902 01 761122, whereas the one in the 2006 model is older and has the number 722902 00 740542.What suggestions do you have for me?The service points have nothing but praise for both vehicles.Give me a ballpark figure on the distance, please.Much obliged.

  3. The original battery warranty still valid, correct?
  4. I am unaware of any extended warranty that excludes a deductible.

    Pleasant. Congratulations.
  6. Locate the vehicle information label beneath the boot floor (or within the service booklet) and upload a photograph of it here.
  7. All AJ engines use Havoline XLC (Dexcool) coolant.
  8. Do you see the prominent 110 kPa marking on your cap?Indeed, the system consistently experiences pressure upon warm-up, resulting in frequent cracking of expansion tanks. You resorted to extreme measures by applying head gasket sealer.Offer a prayer for your heater core. Remove all fluids, including the block drain cap, at this stage.
  9. This garage's assertion that you own front lowering links is entirely incorrect. The front suspension is lowered using either distinct springs or adjustable coilover springs. Did this garage install the unequal lowering springs on the front? If such is the case, I would propose that they have not been installed properly. These should be the installed springs. Article - H & R As previously said, adjusting the rear suspension accurately takes time; nevertheless, transitioning from sport to comfort and back to sport should restore the vehicle to its prior setting. This organisation seems to lack direction, to be frank. They are undoubtedly unaware that the front suspension lacks lowering links. The airmatic is only located in the back. I recommend avoiding this garage, minimising your losses, and scheduling a visit to Steve; a distance of 40 miles is manageable for good vehicle setup.
  10. If the rear has not lowered, more adjustments are necessary. If I recall correctly, the longer the connection, the lower it descends. Calibration requires a considerable amount of time to get the accurate drop.
  11. It is not advisable to pursue if you already own the decreasing connections, in my opinion. Additionally, £70 versus £213
  12. Automotive in Clevedon would be an excellent option for a local Mercedes expert.
  13. Consult realoem.com to ascertain BMW's specifications, then proceed with cross-referencing.
  14. That seems rather unfavourable; nonetheless, I find it difficult to accept that only tightening the sump bolts could result in such an outcome, regardless of the degree of tightness applied. I am not fond of coincidences; yet, it seems to be one to me. However, without a detailed examination and precise identification of the noise's source, it might be attributed to other factors.

  16. What is PAsoft? PASoft is an economical, fundamental, and user-friendly OBD2 reader designed for older BMW vehicles. The package includes the gadget, a cable, and a CD with the software. It is also available for internet download. It is simple to install and start, similar to any other MS Windows program. This will enable you to read and erase error codes, modify numerous settings inside each module, and access additional functionalities, including the ability to monitor live data. It is essential for every owner of a vintage BMW.
  17. They are quite simple to modify. They are a little device located under the seat that informs the computer of occupant presence, hence determining the activation of the corresponding airbags in the case of a collision. Should the signal be disrupted for any reason, it will manifest as an error inside the airbag module.
  18. I sought to update from halogen to xenon headlights, as the high beams were nonfunctional with halogens; hence, I anticipated that xenons would rectify the problem.
  19. I have previously encountered the same problem with the headlights; they were halogen, but I sought to upgrade to xenon. Even with the halogens, I was unable to utilise the high beams, and I do not have access to MB Star.
  20. The headlights and xenon bulbs are completely new; I doubt the issue lies with the bulbs, but I will certainly inspect the wiring.
  21. Greetings to everybody, I consistently receive notifications regarding my headlights; they function properly, although the high beams are inoperative. The indicator on the dashboard illuminates correctly when I engage the lever, but the headlights do not activate. Do you have any insights into the cause?
  22. I must admit that I seldom review the diagnostic materials, among others. We just operate the vehicle from point A to point B instead of doing an analysis. Upon acquiring the Soul about four years ago, we immediately received caution notifications regarding the 12V system. Charged the 12V battery thoroughly, according to proper protocols, and consistently observed a state of "okay." Prior to transfer, I measured the 12V with a meter, and it seemed to be in optimal condition and completely charged. I may eventually install the BM2 that I purchased three years ago onto the EV3, perhaps after I organise the garage, which has been pending for almost a decade.
  23. I have upgraded Connect on iOS and still see 12V under Status > Others.
  24. If just the motors are being replaced, they should be removable with the mirror in place and only need glass removal.
