very pleasant

Indeed, my research suggests that at this age, it is probable that the batteries have spilt, causing corrosion throughout the inside of the machine. It is possible that this is not the situation. I am seeking an immediate solution to resolve the flashing lights problem.

Greetings, I own a W212 that has intermittently been connected to chargers and not used appropriately. Now, after being locked, the indicators deactivate while the inside lights illuminate. I recognise that this is often related to the alarm siren battery problem. I will probably alter the whole composition at some time. The device is presently secured with a key, the alarm is off, and it is connected to a trickle charger. I received a 'auxiliary battery malfunction' error, despite my certainty that early W212 models lack an auxiliary battery. I presume the issue is with the alarm siren situated behind the front passenger tire arch. Can a 'quick remedy' be achieved by just disconnecting the siren? Indeed, I understand that the alarm will not activate in the event of a malfunction; but, I have seen some discussions suggesting that only disabling the siren may temporarily alleviate the issues with the danger lights until I can address the matter appropriately. Salutations!

Auto glass installed a non-OEM windscreen on our V220. All components have been calibrated and function well; nevertheless, there is a little creaking noise, which sometimes triggers the dashcam when encountering a pothole. Unable to get an OEM screen at now owing to lack of availability.

It is entirely exploitative for profit. Manufacturers prefer that users are unable to replace even a £10 headlight bulb, as they struggle to enhance its worth. The whole headlight or tail lamp is constructed as a sealed unit, necessitating the purchase of the complete assembly upon any failure. Consequently, they render the washer bottle cap almost inaccessible for the majority of customers, necessitating a visit to the dealership, where they impose a £250 per hour work fee. Purpose for existence accomplished. Maximum funds stolen from consumers' pockets!

That may well be the origin of the coolant depletion. Flightops has experienced the difficulties mentioned in the preceding discussion.

Indeed, that is what I was implying; it is somewhat perplexing when examining the information, particularly when researching an M4.

Request an extended warranty, specifically for two years, since the standard duration is often one year. However, some franchise BMW-approved vehicles may only provide a guarantee of three months or a tank of gasoline. Be aware of additional options, such as new carpets, which cannot be included with tax unless you enquire about a price deduction.

I attempted to use an M4 about two years ago, but it was unyielding.

Highly intriguing Liveek. In Europe, the fuel may vary, however we are also seeing significant issues that were previously absent. A friend of mine has numerous vintage vehicles, and both petrol and diesel engines, when left idle for an extended period, get gummed up, necessitating the removal and cleaning of the fuel pump and injectors. Terrible fuel!

It is essential to safeguard your engine with additives, in my opinion. This fuel seems to be detrimental.

PPF stands for paint protection film. Companies such as Expel and 3M are known for their exceptional quality, yet there are several other companies that provide high-quality products.

What is the colour of yours? Soul Red had a higher susceptibility to chipping. Which specific car are you comparing it to? I apply Paint Protection Film (PPF) to the front surfaces of my automobiles since the newer paints used on them are somewhat more delicate. That is a known fact, since we apply sand and chips on the road for better grip throughout the six winter months.

Indeed. Likewise. I prefer the Corsa.

I intended to contribute with a remark on the bicycle tyre. To be honest, bicycle tyres are not my first option either.

What is the reason for your wakefulness? I am only jesting about the lack of logical coherence in the metric system. I must awaken in 8 hours, since it is the minimal amount of sleep I need. I have come to understand that obtaining sufficient sleep is crucial for achieving optimal performance. I am really endeavouring to address the matter.

I can offer you the opportunity to have my former girlfriend accompany you in the passenger seat, since she weighed around 240 pounds. We can do the mathematical calculations on it. Another potential approach might include converting from Celsius to Fahrenheit. The metric system is illogical.

Regrettably, it is now beyond the appropriate time, EZ. This is how Google (as well as Apple, Facebook, and Microsoft) provides "free" services such as maps, storage, and documents. Unfortunately, this may not be entirely satisfactory. ☹

Subframe inspection is an additional component of a pre-purchase examination that is always included. Magnetic ride suspension, air conditioning system, clutch (unless equipped with slushtronic gearbox), brakes. These are all very costly maintenance issues. It is very advisable to avoid purchasing anything that may have pre-existing issues in order to minimise the risk of inheriting someone else's troubles.

Comparison between Titanium and Stainless Steel Exhaust Systems
Mindumer replied to HeadlinesQuick's topic in General
You will be in good condition as long as you get a high-quality Titanium system. While it is true that aftermarket exhausts tend to produce a droning sound, I personally do not find it to be a significant issue in my particular configuration. Naturally, I am aware of the optimal range within which to maintain the car's engine power in order to minimise fuel consumption while driving at a consistent speed. -
I have an automobile that is also 18 years old and has accumulated over 150,000 kilometres. If I were to attend to every little task that required attention, I would never have the opportunity to operate the vehicle!

Indeed, my friend, life unfolds as we contemplate how to shape our existence. I also have a multitude of significant matters that I should have attended to promptly... some years ago. Admiration

Have you inspected the output generated by the alternator? We had a critical malfunction known as the "red dash of death" on our SL vehicle, which was ultimately determined to be caused by a faulty alternator regulator.

Sachs, I recommend using AUTODOC if you are able to wait for a duration of 8 days.
