  1. I purchased a pre-owned 2019 Kia Stonic 1.0 T-GDi (118 horsepower) 3 ISG. While driving on the interstate at approximately 60 mph, the vehicle occasionally exhibits difficulty in accelerating, even when the throttle is completely engaged, particularly while ascending inclines or across bridges. Has anyone else encountered this problem?
  2. It is always reassuring to receive a clean bill of health. I hope these Insignia Bs do not present numerous issues as they age. My vehicle is now seven years old and has yet to receive an advisory, let alone a failure. I recently conducted a major service using as many Vauxhall components as possible.
  3. Haha cheers! Runs like a dream too. Glad I took the chance the whole experience was a lot smoother than I expected.
  4. Just got the car today! It looks brilliant super clean inside and out, all documents present including V5C, MOT certificate, and service record. Taking it to a mechanic tomorrow to double-check everything but first impressions are solid
  5. Thanks everyone, appreciate all the info. I decided to go ahead just waiting for the invoice from them now. They’ve been responsive so far, so fingers crossed. I’ll update once I get the car.

  8. Contemplating the feasibility of this concept. And it's already on 100K miles. The rear appears organised, ha ha!
  9. On my F36, the hardwire is connected to the positive terminal of the battery, while the negative is attached to the chassis in the boot. I connect the charger in the driveway once a week for about half a day; otherwise, due to my limited excursions, a new battery lasts just one year.
  10. Ensure the jump point connection is secure.
  11. If the issue arose after you had been driving it, it is plausible that it functioned properly following the component change. Was the ride height satisfactory upon your collection of the vehicle?
  12. The effective functioning of the compressor has uncovered an additional problem. I suspect a malfunction with the solenoid or level sensor on the high side.
  13. Regrettably, it was a 2.3 diesel. That was rather ironic, anticipating that some could presume it was the more potent version. The XR3. That is self-evident. The SAAB 3 Litre V6 was undoubtedly the finest automobile I have ever had; yet, it had to be relinquished due to the corrosion of the power steering pipes at 11 years of age, which resulted in fluid dispersion throughout the engine compartment. The cost to rectify the issue would have exceeded double the vehicle's worth. Ford Mondeo. The name encapsulates the essence. Volvo V50. This was the LUX variant (highest specification). This was 11 years more recent than the SAAB, although it was inferior in comparison. I selected the EV3 mostly because of its mileage, warranty, and delivery prior to April. After doing a test drive, I concluded that I had finally discovered a vehicle capable of rivalling the SAAB.
  14. The spouse's vehicle has both of these features: The high and low beam is permanently disabled since it continuously alternates between dip and main. The lane departure system is deactivated while not on primary roadways due to its excessive sensitivity. Attempting to activate or deactivate them while driving is perilous, since it necessitates engaging with the dashboard screen and navigating through around four or five menus. Can they be easily activated or deactivated on the EV3?
  15. As already said. Advice If you want to retain the vehicle long-term, get a BMW-specific scanner; it will be beneficial and save you considerable expenses.
  16. paid for the T-Roc yesterday, and this afternoon got an email confirming that delivery will be in around six days.
  17. Hey guys Has anyone dealt with Calkill Transport in Belfast recently? I spotted a VW T-Roc listed by them on eBay. I’d really like to hear from anyone who’s actually bought from them before I send any money Appreciate any advice Rob
  18. My vehicle is a 2015 S212, which has the capability of self-parking; however, my previous 20120 S212 lacked this technology.
  19. Do you believe a tank and cap acquired directly from BMW? Are the aluminium options effective, or should they be avoided?
  20. The first occurrence occurred when I was stopped, and today it happened during very slow traffic; so, I can only infer that it occurs while idling. It is conceivable that the fan is malfunctioning (I have tested it and confirmed that the fuse is operational) or that the thermostat is defective.
  21. I conducted the test, which yielded a negative result for HGF; but, when opening the bonnet, I discovered that the cap was missing, likely dislodged by the pressure. Is the pressure causing the caps to dislodge for any reason?
  22. I am aware that it is located near the thermostat. I do not exhibit any apparent indications of HGF or thermostat malfunction. Temperatures are OK; heaters function as anticipated. No smoke from the exhaust; oil is crystal clean; vehicle operates smoothly. I plan to replace the valve cover gasket during Christmas, as it appears to be deteriorating and likely has never been replaced (evidenced by some severely rusted bolts). Is there anything I can visually inspect while performing this task, given that I lack testing equipment? If I cannot identify any issues, it will necessitate a visit to the garage. Any suggestions? This one has me perplexed.
  23. I purchased a 2008 Mini Cooper S in August. I immediately saw that the coolant was depleting, so I purchased a new tank from Febi Bilstein. For a few months, everything was satisfactory; levels were monitored biweekly. I was waiting for a buddy with the vehicle idling when an excessive amount of steam emanated from the hood. Upon inspection, I discovered the tank was empty and the cap had been detached. Upon inspection, the metal valve was misaligned; I purchased a new cap that is far more robust and well-constructed. It is hoped that the issue lies with the cap; nevertheless, there is a suspicion of a leak, despite the absence of coolant. Nonetheless, there are indications of dried coolant stains present:
