  1. If the system pressure is excessive, the cap will release pressure.Simply operate the vehicle. Monitor coolant temperatures using a scanner; they should generally remain below 100°C.
  2. Ensure the coolant cap is replaced with the new tank. You may also do a hydrocarbon test in advance using a Block Tester from NAPA. This will detect hydrocarbons in the coolant; if present, it indicates a leak in the head gaskets.
  3. Annually, indeed. 😂 Provoked amusement. Is it also protected from the rain?
  4. There was never a problem during the testing of my OM642, therefore I presume this has been considered? There are few driving scenarios in which one would surpass 3000 rpm in a 3-liter V6 diesel engine. 🤔
  5. It has likely spun a bearing. Occasionally, they do such action after an oil change. It is likely not their responsibility.
  6. A six-cylinder engine often has less issues.
  7. The 2.0 will use a four-cylinder engine, unless when purchasing a vehicle from the 1990s.
  8. NOx sensors exhibit an occasional problem; nonetheless, based on my experience, I assume their functioning is at the threshold of arbitrarily defined software settings. Having changed the NOx sensors on my C350 three times, I no longer pursue this issue. For the last five years, I have just dismissed the error code upon its annual occurrence and proceeded without any complications. I believe that the recorded NOx levels sometimes above the designated threshold, triggering the code. The program has not been designed to address this unforeseen error, instead mistakenly resorting to a need for sensor replacement. I would want to ascertain the number of replacement sensors that have undergone appropriate testing rather than being discarded. Undoubtedly, Bosch or any other manufacturer would not advocate for an action that may result in significant financial losses from new sensor sales.
  9. My mate actually drives one of their lorries, so I can confirm they’re a real company. They’ve been doing transport and haulage for a good few years now. I think the selling cars side is quite new though.
  10. ...unless it pertained to the wife's side... in that case, I would use an old one from a Micra!
  11. Utilise this, since I own an electric vehicle that displays energy use. Could it display MPG on your device? Page of status. Navigate to Vehicle Management. Select the report option. Energy utilisation.
  12. Realoem provides all potential brake combinations, therefore facilitating the identification of the component number.
  13. Input the last seven digits of the chassis number on realoem.com to get component numbers. I will be replacing both rear shocks, not just one.
  14. I replaced them since I purchased them second-hand, believing they had the same issue as mine. What is the method to contact Bell Engineering? I now own two pairs of Haldex and a rear differential in my backyard, along with one new set put in the vehicle.
  15. Are you certain that this might be the problem? I left the vehicle with the Haldex pump unplugged (no power to the back wheels), and it remained silent, while the PTU was rotating freely. I will seek that spline, thank you! Do you possess any other hypotheses on the potential issue?
  16. I hear a boom (resembling metal striking metal) while reversing my 2013 2.2 SD4 Evoque. I have changed the rear differential and Haldex twice, however the issue persists. I am uncertain about other measures I may take to resolve the issue. Do you have any suggestions?
  17. I will send you a direct message.
  18. Consett, County Durham You may visit, and I will connect it to the Autel for you if you like to determine the cause of the issue.
  19. What is your location? I can connect it for you and do a live data analysis to identify the issue.
  20. Are you acquainted with the process of remapping? When creating the map, one physically eliminates the EGR operation and programming, as well as the DPF. While this practice is generally disapproved of, it is impractical for individuals to invest in an OEM DPF, given that aftermarket alternatives are often ineffective. A proper DPF removal and remap DELETE is significantly less expensive, resulting in enhanced vehicle performance and potential improvements in fuel efficiency.
  21. The orange pipe you mentioned is designated for the DPF pressure sensor. The traction light is on due to a blockage in the pipe. However, if you have had your DPF deleted, removed, or gutted and subsequently welded, and then remapped to indicate its absence, the orange pipe should no longer serve a function. This suggests that the mapping may not have been executed correctly. Typically, with the K9K engine 1.5 dCi, it is also necessary to delete the EGR.
  22. They may have a rather gruff demeanour. My vehicle has 135,000 miles yet accelerates powerfully and has consistently emitted a little grumble. However, the gearbox mount may deteriorate over time. The gearbox descends by one or two centimetres and may contact the exhaust. It does not bang or rattle, but it will significantly amplify the engine noise. It is a recognised problem and an inexpensive remedy; the component costs around £50 from Mercedes and requires about 30 minutes to install after the vehicle is elevated on a ramp. I would get it replaced, since it is likely to fail someday.
  23. I am uncertain about the frequency of upkeep, but I believe the automobile has had regular servicing and it is registered as a 2009 model.
