  1. There are no problems to be concerned about. However, you may need to reset the windows and mirrors after changing the starting battery. The auxiliary batteries are a very inexpensive solution for the stop-start feature. However, some individuals on this platform choose not to invest in them due to the inconvenience they may cause. Personally, I do not use mine.
  2. In order for the start/stop functionality to function properly, it is necessary for both batteries to be in optimal condition. Recently, I purchased two batteries from Tanya. I found them to be reasonably priced and suitable with stop/start systems. https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batteries/exide/el800/
  3. Seconsu If you are able to switch to CC2, please consider providing a review or comparison to the BS's. The Michelin CrossClimate SUV 265/45 R20 Y (108) tyres, with a directional tread pattern and M+S stamp, were an excellent match for my prior GLE vehicle.
  4. Excellent suggestion. By just seeing the wheels without removing them, I can easily determine that the rim is too broad for the tyre, causing it to protrude. I will verify the component number as instructed and replace them thereafter. Thank you.
  5. I appreciate your comprehensive response. Thank you. I will quickly take some measurements to confirm, and then get 275's for the rear.
  6. I will definitely comply. Thank you for your assistance.
  7. Apologies for my mistake, you are right. It is my first BMW, therefore I am rather inexperienced. The VIN indicates that the vehicle is equipped with S2NM BMW LA Wheel, M Double Spoke 373.
  8. I suspect that the wheels have different sizes, the automobile is rear-wheel drive, and the rims must be original equipment manufacturer (OEM). I will need to verify later since I do not have the automobile with me now. The gauge on the driver's side column displayed a reading of 275 at the rear.
  9. My automobile is equipped with 245 tyres on both the front and rear wheels. Should I keep it same or should I add 275 in the back? 2015 F06
  10. I have received several recommendations about the ATF adjustment for my 2009 W211 E280 CDI Sports Estate. I purchased the automobile with 111,000 miles on the odometer. The previous history of ATF changes was ambiguous. Soon after buying it, I had the ATF replaced and a new filter installed. The current mileage is 190,000 miles. The use has been a combination of motorway and urban driving. I have completed all routine maintenance tasks myself... Aside from ATF and filter replacements. I just had another ATF and filter replacement performed by my reliable garage. Everything is fine. Functions just as well as the day I purchased it.
  11. At the time, there was speculation about whether the space shuttle had been damaged by foam debris during takeoff. The post-disaster experiment demonstrated that it was possible to observe the damaged wing from long-range ground telescopes or spy satellites, but this was not done during the flight due to reasons that are still unknown. The fundamental principle of scientific and engineering inquiry is to create a hypothesis and then verify or refute it by experimentation and observation, which they did not do. Ironically, their behaviour may have inadvertently exacerbated the fear of funding cutbacks to NASA.
  12. Consider it akin to the postal service issue in space.;) Episode 2 highlights the human interactions revealing how the senior management of the business lost sight of the original compass and mission. Several organisations are capable of launching manned space flights, but the challenge is in ensuring the safe return of the astronauts.

  14. Determining from a photograph is arduous, if not unattainable. In the past, AMG operated as an independent tuning company. In the UK, components could only be obtained via Stratton's, the only distributor. There were indeed available components for the SECs, including a few 500 and 560 models with AMG bodykits, steering wheels, and wheels. These modifications were rather costly. However, it is uncertain if any kits for saloon models were available. It is quite unlikely that a 300 would have been equipped with authentic AMG components when it was first manufactured, mostly owing to the high cost involved. AMG kits must to include a distinct component number imprinted on them. They were not pre-installed at the manufacturing. I apologise for the confusion, but it seems that I mistakenly believed I had already shared this information. As a result, there may be some repetition of the content provided by BTB.
  15. I am experiencing a distressing dream involving individuals associated with automobiles. Indeed, this topic has been addressed on several occasions; nonetheless, the clarity of the matter remains unquestionable. When I try to start it, the electrical system malfunctions. All the circuits seem to be communicating with each other, but the car is not functioning properly. Last year, she performed this action, which included enclosing the narrows of the circuit and causing it to become saturated. Upon reevaluating it this year, I have seen that it is not as dreadful as before. Today, I visited the passenger side footwell and saw that it was totally inundated with water, to the point of overflowing. An unspecified wire was brought down in the area at the driver's feet, and I am uncertain whether it is linked to anything. Although it seems that there is no connection or practical use, I don't think it should have affected the loom.
  16. Please inform us of your progress. Wishing you the utmost success with your new vehicle.
  17. I understand. I feel the same way. I am in close proximity to London and the temperature drops to uncomfortably low levels only on a few occasions during the year. There are few opportunities to purchase high-quality winter or all-season tyres on really cold days, unless I come into a large sum of money, such as winning the lottery.
  18. They are not suitable for winter conditions.Even in Los Angeles, where the weather is consistently warm.The compound is very difficult.Prior to proceeding, it is necessary to first warm them up.Subsequently, they begin to exhibit the characteristics of a well-functioning tyre. Until that time, they remain uncertain or unpredictable. They perform very well at higher temperatures. It demonstrates the constraints of using these tyres over the whole year.
  19. Initially, the 170 does not have any issues with the OPUS system. However, we have seen a recurring problem related to the P06D code, specifically with the suction pipe seal. However, there is still uncertainty about that matter.However, it is important to be mindful of this. According to John, the service history records provide further evidence to support the stamps recorded in the book. Ensure that all electrical equipment functions as expected. If the vehicle is equipped with a satellite navigation system, do not anticipate it to have extensive functionality. Ensure that there are no faults shown on the dashboard for the parking sensors, if equipped. The mileage of the automobile is unknown, however, whether the cambelt, auxiliary belt, roller guides, and tensioners have been replaced. Additionally, there is a diminutive chain connecting the camshafts that does not need maintenance.However, these are beginning to deteriorate, resulting in significant and unforeseen issues. However, it is important to note that, like any automotive forum, the majority of participants join seeking assistance with problems, which tends to result in a predominance of bad experiences being shared. It is worth mentioning that these vehicles are equipped with Euro 6 engines, which need the usage of ADBLUE. Therefore, it is crucial to regularly refill the ADBLUE tank. Alloys and curbs will never have a romantic relationship.The higher the sidewall, the more advantageous it is. The choice of tyre brand is often a matter of personal preference, however many people tend to like popular brands like Landsales. I have purchased the Goodyear asemretic 6 tyres and I am dissatisfied with their performance. Additionally, I have a recurring issue with damaging the front tyre on the driver's side. I believe I am now on my second replacement within a span of less than a year. If you are determined to get it, you will ultimately purchase it. We do not possess clairvoyant abilities, hence neither we nor you can predict future events. Keep in mind that it is a pre-owned vehicle, so anticipate signs of wear and tear due to its age.
  20. I am experiencing the same issue with my 2018 Evoque. The brakes and rotors of my vehicle, which has accumulated less than 50,000 kilometres, need replacement according to my local dealer. The cost is $2200 and it is not eligible for warranty coverage. 😡
  21. If you, as a member of this esteemed community, lack the knowledge to resolve the issue with your vehicle, it is unreasonable to assume that other members would possess an instant solution to your car's problem. How proficient are you at efficiently and precisely identifying issues for other members? Share relevant details and members will endeavour to provide assistance.
  22. Request a reimbursement for both the initial membership price and the recurring monthly charges.
  23. On the M4 automobiles, an ABS sensor transmits various error codes and unusual problems. Some individuals mistakenly assume that the gearbox or differential is malfunctioning when they encounter these troubles.
