  1. I am foolish. I should have checked the correct tab.
  2. Disappointing, I was expecting to see mine featured, but it seems that 902830 is not included in the list.
  3. Consider examining the ATF level and inspect for leaking at the pilot bush if it is low. ATF servicing is essential and should be done promptly. If the parking brake system is utilised, I would recommend having it inspected.
  4. What do you think about the diamond stitch floor mats made from Vegan leather?
  5. I find it highly efficient and functional 99% of the time. A gentle motion with the foot from the back of the wheel towards the rear causes it to open each time.
  6. The Toyota model, priced at about £90, utilises the OBD socket, as previously mentioned by others. It is important to note that the accessory socket does not receive power while the vehicle is turned off.
  7. This year, I successfully changed the thermostat on my om648 211. The Mahle thermostat, which cost £25, was conveniently located on the top of the engine and proved to be easily accessible. That may be seen as development, I suppose.
  8. Exclamation of exasperation. What factors contribute to a thermostat replacement costing £1,000?
  9. Shouldn't the extensive instructions explicitly include the need of using a torque wrench to install the axle nut? As a beginner, I adhered to the directions and inadvertently caused damage to the assembly, resulting in a loss of $210.00.
  10. engrol, your teaching was excellent. However, I am curious about the location in Kent where you discovered a well-paved road.
  11. Indeed, I have performed wet sanding on the lenses multiple times throughout the years and have applied different anti-UV light coatings (I will attempt the Amazon-recommended one mentioned above) without achieving a long-lasting outcome. However, markjay's point is worth considering: it would be preferable to have polycarbonate lenses that can be replaced individually rather than replacing the entire unit. The right to repair movement, now gaining traction in the United States, advocates for the adoption of products that are designed with modularity and accessibility in mind, as opposed to the deliberate incorporation of planned obsolescence, which is prevalent in some companies such as Apple and others.
  12. My automobile has reached a point in its lifespan when it is necessary to clean and shine the headlights annually in order to prevent damage from UV rays. Those who share my preference would go for glass, despite its fragility and susceptibility to damage from stones. However, if the design allows for simple repair of the glass alone, I would myself be tempted to choose that option. Opinions?
  13. Possible causes for this issue include a malfunctioning thermostat or the presence of an air bubble in the cooling system, which hinders the transfer of heat to the sensor.
