Is there anyone available?

Greetings, everyone! I am experiencing misfires on all cylinders in bank 2 of my 2008 S5 4.2 B8. Bank 1 is free from misfires and operates normally. I have conducted a compression test and here are the findings... The pressure is between 1 and 150 pounds per square inch (psi). The pressure range is from 2 to 150 pounds per square inch (psi). The pressure range is from 3 to 150 pounds per square inch (psi). The pressure range is from 4 to 150 pounds per square inch (psi). The pressure range is from 5 to 220 pounds per square inch (psi). The pressure is 215 pounds per square inch (psi). The pressure is 185 pounds per square inch (psi). The pressure range is 8 to 225 pounds per square inch (psi). I am perplexed. Is bank 2 exhibiting elevated compression? If so, what is the underlying reason of high compression? Thank you.

If anything, I would love my automobile to shift to first gear while moving at very slow speeds. In my opinion, the performance of your own vehicle surpasses that of the courtesy car. If the vehicle remains in second gear while moving at very slow rates, it is likely exerting significant strain on the drivetrain to regain momentum. The primary focus of the manufacturer is to optimise the engine and transmission for minimal emissions. Furthermore, there are automobiles that engage the next gear prematurely, a significant factor contributing to the accumulation of carbon deposits in the intake system of diesel engines. Additionally, these vehicles may operate at a speed of 60km/h while in 6th gear, without downshifting to 5th gear when the driver chooses to accelerate. This puts significant strain on the whole powertrain, particularly the crankshaft bearings, due to the reduced oil pressure at low RPM. It is not unexpected that individuals have their automatic gearboxes reprogrammed and their shift points altered. Regrettably, I am starting to believe that the most advantageous action one can do with their just acquired automobile is to have it remapped. The repeated use of "emissions" suggests a focus on the release of pollutants or greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

Indeed, there is already some paint damage. I was aware of this fact while purchasing the Soul Red. Dr. Colorchip is often effective. This chip repair touch up paint is perhaps the most straightforward and convenient option available. Mazda's two-stage paint pens are inconvenient for quickly repairing colours such as soul red. The Dr. Colorchip soul red paint does not perfectly match, but its delta-E value is much superior than that of primer or bare metal. Apply a little amount of the substance next to the chip using a toothpick, and then smooth it out with a card or a small rubber squeegee. Applying many layers also contributes to the desired outcome. While it may not be really effective for scratches, I have successfully found a way to make it function.

Once a month, I would just take my car out and drive on a major road or highway for about an hour. This would help warm up the engine and ensure that it stays in motion and maintains its optimal temperature. It is likely to be less expensive than an addition ... and far more enjoyable! Alternatively, you might do an Italian tune-up by vigorously driving the vehicle for a duration of thirty minutes.

Hello, have you attempted to restart the I drive? I recommend watching the YouTube video provided below, as it may provide helpful guidance and is worth trying.

Can you locate a nearby furniture restoration who can install a new veneer that matches, or is it possible to simply sand and reapply lacquer to the current veneer?

This component costs $4,000. In my opinion, it is a very erroneous decision by 1016 to refuse a reimbursement of $150. Whether the OP is correct or not is irrelevant. Any adverse publicity over an ill-fitting component is not justified by a price of $150.

My 2009 R8 exhibits a surly disposition when I rouse it after an extended period of inactivity, much to the situation described by the original poster. Introducing a titanium exhaust into the system intensifies the snarls, growls, vibrations, and misfires, even after driving for a few hundred yards. However, as there are no Check Engine Light (CEL) or error codes being shown, I just attribute it to the normal lifespan of a R8.

Thank you for the guidance.

Is it possible to verify if the size and power of the cooling system in the CX90 were enhanced compared to the CX9?
-
Have you ever owned or driven a CX-9 in comparable hot conditions in order to make a comparison? The AC performance of the CX-9 has significantly declined from its previous generation in 2016 and beyond.
-
Hello everyone, I would want to inquire whether the air conditioning performance of the CX90 has been enhanced compared to the previous generation CX-9, which was only marginally satisfactory. Is the compressor size and overall refrigeration unit on the CX90 more powerful than on the CX-9? The previous generation of the CX-9 was much less powerful compared to the original CX-9, which had a very cool and impressive performance.

I am uncertain about my objective. If someone comes across it on eBay or other websites, please inform me. I need assistance from all of you. Appreciation is extended to each and every one of you.

Is there a protective covering over the location where the oil drains?
-
I had the oil changed at Audi and noticed that the back oil pan cover is now gone. After using Audi's services for a period of 6 years, I am aware that it did not suffer any damage or detachment. However, I now need a replacement. The price quoted for the Audi is $1300.00. I am uncertain about the duration of time since it was last turned off. The records of the mechanic who performed the repair were examined, and it was found that he had not made any prior statements. It does not resemble a bolt that falls onto the floor and becomes difficult to locate. Do you have any opinions or ideas?

@Mututing Although I am hesitant to admit it, I believe it would be advantageous for you to seek out a another V8 vehicle with low mileage and begin over after your current vehicle reaches 108,000 miles. Fidelity plainly relies on the fact that the vast majority of drivers will not come close to reaching the maximum mileage covered by their warranty. I am almost positive that beginning over would result in a more favourable outcome.

A few of years ago, I sold my set of wheels to a frequent driver who had a V10 vehicle (I believe he was mostly interested in acquiring the tyres that were included with the wheels). He owned an independent automotive repair business and informed me that the Dual Clutch Transmissions (DCTs) had a replacement cost of $35,000, which was a contributing factor in his decision to choose a manual gearbox.

Oh, my. Unfortunate individual.

Turn off the traction control. Shift into first gear. Engage the throttle fully Disengage the clutch abruptly. Please wait.

Thank you! There is no such thing as an inexpensive S class, AMG, or AMG pack. Although they may still be rather expensive, as you said, they are now more cost-effective.
