The engine code is N47D20C.

Should you go. Inquire about their confidence on the absence of ICCU difficulties, considering that every other Kia using the E-GMP platform has had such problems.

A seat occupancy sensor located under the seat will activate the airbag indicator if it malfunctions. It is possible that reclining the seat damaged the sensor, socket, wiring, or another component.This equipment is about 30 years old. Which codes are shown by the computer? To my knowledge, the airbag indicator may alone be deactivated by erasing the computer's memory. This is an opportune moment to get PASoft, which can do that and also interpret codes.

Hello - A220 814 0101

Other than removing rocker cover off to take a look or having bmw to measure stretch with the proper equipment there isn’t anything

The prevalence of N47 engines indicates a relatively low failure rate; the essential factor for longevity is consistent oil changes. Based on the many instances I have conducted over the years, 100k is my threshold for them. As a later N47T model, yours has received modifications that do not eliminate failure but rather extend longevity. It is unfeasible to quantify the mileage lifespan, since I have seen original chains last up to 200,000 miles, while others have failed or shown noise below 100,000 miles; so, I assert that my threshold would be 100,000 miles.

I acknowledge that your vehicle is an AWD model; yet, I am astonished that the rear brake pads have deteriorated more rapidly than the front ones. If you want to retain the automobile for many more years, you could consider examining the KIA service plans. Their prices are cheaper than those of most franchised dealer stores, and reduced fixed-price MOT testing might be included. In the event of any issues with the brakes or the AWD system, the individual conducting the MOT test will typically alert you. Based on my experience, they often highlight pad and tyre wear well before reaching the minimum recommended thresholds, anticipating that customers will respond with, “Oh, please repair them while the car is in the workshop!” or they may propose scheduling a follow-up appointment for the following week. Dealerships often change brakes and tires because to the substantial profit margins associated with their pricing. I am uncertain whether you plan to retain the automobile, nor do I possess knowledge about its whole KIA service history. However, a 2021 model should remain under warranty until 2028, provided it has been maintained according to KIA's requirements. As a vehicle ages, it has significant monetary value should any substantial issues arise.

The emphasis is not primarily on velocity. The focus is on maximising the engine's capability by ensuring all components operate efficiently and elevating fuel and exhaust pressures to maintain system cleanliness. Driving on a freeway is not really fulfilling. B roads are optimal for accelerating out of curves and braking sharply upon entry, which benefits both the engine and the brakes, as Stephen noted before. Automobiles are engineered for operation. In my experience, modest usage generates far more issues than misuse. I consistently drove with efficiency, expecting no less than 50 mpg from a diesel Golf or Focus; yet, subjecting them to a vigorous drive weekly did not significantly impact the overall average from a full tank.

Turbo timers are unnecessary for our little European turbochargers. Older Japanese automobiles were equipped with large, sluggish ball bearing turbochargers. No maintenance is performed on turbos whatsoever. They get advantages from the fresh oil, since they operate on a minimal layer of pressured oil instead of direct metal-to-metal bearings. Consequently, it is advisable to allow the engine to return to idle before shutting it off. However, who is disengaging while maintaining pressure on the accelerator? We need information on the cause of your wastegate's failure to determine appropriate preventive maintenance measures. It is likely that you are not exerting sufficient force on the vehicle to ensure the wastegate opens and closes consistently.

I would expect the technician to have detached the actuator to directly test the wastegate prior to estimating £800 for a new turbo. However, if that is not the case, it is certainly advisable to verify that. The wastegate is likely corroded and immobile, to be frank. The design is subpar. The petrol wastegates exhibit the contrary problem; they are loose and rattling. It is perplexing how they are all constructed so poorly, since Ford does not participate in the turbo design.

The 1.5 TDCI engine of the Fiesta is equipped with a wastegate. The more powerful variant in the Focus is VNT.

Individuals seem to fixate on miles. Typically, it is ageing that causes deterioration. A ten-year lifespan for a wastegate failure is very plausible. The warranty coverage was limited to the first three years. Except if you have purchased an extended or aftermarket warranty. Considering the car's age of 10 years, I would go for a quality used replacement priced between £100 and £200 rather than investing £800 on a completely new vehicle. It is advisable to release the wastegate, however ideally, the turbo should be removed to access it effectively. If the wastegate is compromised, it is not available for individual sale to the public, necessitating the replacement of the whole turbo system.

There is nothing else there that might produce that sound while being operational.

I suspect the dual-mass flywheel has failed, but I will await more responses.

I have just had electrical issues and, like you, removed and examined every fuse in the vehicle; none were blown. Upon reinserting them, I encountered an increased number of problems. I discovered that the blades of all the fuses had oxidised, resulting in incomplete contact, which caused a failure in the affected module when current was applied. The solution included removing each fuse individually and cleaning the contacts with emery paper. This rectified all my issues, and after erasing all codes, none have reappeared in the last two weeks. This may not be the source of your problems, but because it was a complimentary solution (apart from a little investment of time) for me, I recommend doing it first to assess its effectiveness. I trust this will assist you.

The connection may have been loose. I replaced the bulb in my device with an LED, and the connection remained connected.

The outcome is contingent upon the trim level. I own a 2022 Niro 3 HEV, which is equipped with a conventional light bulb. I believe a Niro 4 would be equipped with LED technology.

The P146300 sensor indicating 'low fuel pressure and fuel temperature' has experienced a failure during the computation of fuel pressure.

Before purchasing a rebuild kit, it is advisable to disassemble the master cylinder and assess its suitability for rebuilding. If there are any marks or damage in the cylinder's bore, it is not salvageable.

Please inform us of the outcome and pricing. I am certain that others will find this information valuable.

Greetings, everybody. I have been contemplating the idea of doing a facelift conversion on the second-generation R8, specifically focussing on the front, in order to rejuvenate its appearance. I am quite enthusiastic about the concept, yet I am also somewhat apprehensive about executing things flawlessly. Has anybody in this group have any firsthand experience with the Automotive Passion conversion or any kits offered by Parts4USA? I am interested in the quality and compatibility of these kits, as well as if they need any significant alterations. Additionally, where can I find the optimal location to get this conversion? Do you have any reputable merchants or stores that you would suggest? I want to ensure that I am investing in a high-quality product that will not cause any future complications. I would much appreciate any advise, recommendations, or personal experiences that you all may have to share. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Greetings The most advantageous moment to use the engine speed x is when the speed in the subsequent gear surpasses it, at this point the maximum engine torque is accessible. The range is from 6200 to 8200.

No, not really. It is quite improbable that you have never had a stone chip throughout the span of 20 years.

The older 5.0L engines, up to serial numbers 11122107525, have M10x1.5 threads. Engines with serial numbers above that have M11x1.5 threads.
