Mututing

Do you possess a towbar?

Thank you; the swap has already been checked and is not the issue. The infotainment system lacks electricity; but, after removing and reinserting the fuse, it resumes operation, allowing me to toggle it on and off using the power switch.

Greetings to everybody! Occasionally, my radio-satellite navigation equipment fails to activate. After I interrupt a circuit (by removing and reinserting the fuse or disconnecting the battery for charging), functionality is restored; but, after a few days of use, the issue reoccurs. Has anybody had a similar issue? What may be defective and need replacement?

Thank you. Are there any indicators, apart from a chilly rattle, that suggest a chain is deteriorating?

Hello everyone, I just acquired a 2012 320d with 100,000 miles and want to go on a vacation throughout Europe in the next weeks, covering around 4,000 kilometres. Whenever I research the 320ds, particularly the N47 model, I encounter discussions on the timing chain issue. I am contemplating if it is advisable to address this concern before to my purchase or whether it is overstated.

I own a glass roof in my Honda CR-V, and some companies declined to provide insurance; nevertheless, mine (Admiral) did so without any complications. It is reportedly a costly replacement, however all Honda 'EX' models of the CR-V come equipped with this glass roof as standard. This was the first time I encountered this problem.

The only regulatory restriction seems to be 1.5mm; nevertheless, by that point, it is too late to operate the vehicle. I think it is an implicit guideline that most garages will alert you when the brake pads go below 3mm. In my situation, they would have secured the work anyway, since the garage next is far more economical than the Kia dealer, and, as I said, it would not result in the vehicle being out of service. I have no objection to the needed task. It is only the situation. If I had been driving even average mileage, it would not have survived until this MOT, and I may be facing rotor damage as well. In response to your comment on Advisories, if they maintain it at 1.5mm, they will undoubtedly secure the job, since it becomes undriveable.

I have owned the automobile from its purchase. I also acquired a three-year service package deal from the only Kia agent on the island. They are unable to provide a reduced MOT fee. The distance is a 50-mile round trip, and my local garage is adjacent. No issues requiring care were identified at the most recent service, which occurred within a week of the previous MOT. It is scheduled for its fourth service next week, and I will have a brief discussion with the manager to enquire whether he has encountered this issue before. In my previous post, I expressed my confusion at the MOT Tester’s failure to provide an advise last year, despite the fact that just 4,500 miles had elapsed, which may have averted my car's unavailability during the most severe weather week we have seen in some time.

It seems I will be relying on my own two feet for the week. It was quite unexpected that my 2021 Kia Sportage 1.6 AWD T-GDI did not pass its MOT. The mileage is 24,000 miles. Rear brake pads are less than 1.5mm. Refrain from driving. I was quite irritated with the MOT Tester. It was the same individual as the previous year. I would want to understand the reason for not receiving an Advisory last year (3mm). I find it hard to comprehend that it has decreased from almost 3mm to below 1.5mm in less than 4500 kilometres. Had I been aware, I could have arranged for their replacement at my leisure, so preventing the automobile from being out of service. I found it quite peculiar that the rear brakes had deteriorated more rapidly than the front ones. This has never occurred to me before. He was excessively occupied to attend the Reception. I must stop doing handbrake turns. 😂 Could Forum Members elucidate the reasons behind the accelerated wear of the rear brakes compared to the front brakes? Is it a characteristic of the model? The granddaughter is displeased about having to go home from school in the wind and rain.

I have no objection to paying £80 for two upgrades; it is much more convenient for the vehicle to do the updates autonomously rather than for me to manually download them.

I own a 2023 Sorento and I was required to do a manual upgrade, which thereafter activates the OTA.

Group strap? The starter motor may be defective.

A such incident occurred before as well. It became inoperative, and the recovery technician was unable to restart it. The vehicle was transported to the prior dealership, where it started upon inspection. They were unable to ascertain the defect since they did not do a test drive and concluded that a throttle body replacement was necessary based on diagnostics. This did not resolve the issue, and the same problem recurred. Uncertain if the second dealership can provide an appropriate diagnostic. I have informed them of all the predictions about several possibilities, including issues with the auxiliary battery, starting motor, and battery alternator. Only God comprehends the issue at hand.

Regrettably, the vehicle has halted once again. The battery jumpstart was ineffective. It fails to initiate regardless of the circumstances. The incident occurred when the auto start-stop feature was engaged. Strangely, the automobile started operation the next morning. However, I had over my limit by that time, so I arranged for it to be hauled to another dealership.

That is impressive. I will complete it tomorrow throughout the day.
