  1. Adore a journey by automobile. That sounds wonderful.
  2. My previous Nextbase camera functioned well and, when using their hardwired kit, is capable of operating in parking mode since the power supply deactivates if the voltage falls below a safe threshold. The issue I encountered was that the internal lithium battery expired after around one year and would have posed challenges for replacement. Some manufacturers seem to be transitioning to "super capacitors" instead of batteries. I like the appearance of the FitDVR camera, which is simple to install and resembles genuine equipment. Regrettably, it is not yet accessible for the EV3, and due to a distressing encounter, I am hesitant to wait.
  3. May not originate from your vehicle.
  4. I questioned the purpose of the P indicator on my dashboard. I am uncertain whether it is functioning as intended; my device remains activated at speeds below around 10 mph, regardless of whether I am parked.
  5. I had condensation problems with my prior MY16 Golf GTI, which was brand new from the manufacturer. As you said, LEDs produce less heat, resulting in insufficient warmth inside the lenses to dissipate moisture. Despite the back of my 2017 Evoque ceasing to function, moisture was often evident. I resealed the driver's side, which has since performed well.
  6. Numerous options are available on eBay starting at around £70; however, purchasing second-hand items may lead to similar problems. I substituted my rear with fresh old stock from LR parts two years ago for £150.
  7. When I changed my front discs, I had the choice between two different sizes, with little difference between them. Measuring the diameter precisely may be challenging when there is a hub obstructing the route. An alternative approach is to measure the circumference and then divide it by 3.142. I had sufficient confidence in the accuracy of the measurement to place an order with Autodoc, and the items I received were of the exact size.

    The performance of the vehicle, with 174 horsepower and 400 Newton-meters of torque, may not be considered impressive for an automobile weighing about 1800 kilogrammes. This weight is comparable to my ALFA, which weighs around 250 kilogrammes less and does not provide exceptional acceleration. Achieving a 0-60 mph time of 8.5 seconds is not satisfactory for me. It depends on your expectations of the automobile, I suppose. Visually appealing.... admire the 218..... and most notably.... the inside is not black!!! Hooray! ... and of course, there is also the Adblue. The prosecution concludes their case.
  9. It seems like someone accidentally dropped a head bolt washer. Sprocket debris indicates that it has had a substantial occurrence in the past. The inclusion of this information implies that it was a cost-effective fix.
  10. Vredestein is a highly esteemed firm, mostly known for producing premium bicycle tyres.
  11. Wow, it is really concerning and I have never seen anything in such a perilous state as a secondhand transaction. In my opinion, this automobile is not a typical example of the majority of vehicles on the road. Furthermore, I believe the buyer has encountered a significant amount of misfortune in purchasing from a vendor who lacks integrity. While many merchants would overlook small flaws, this situation goes beyond that. The majority of the defects would not be evident without a thorough examination on a ramp, a task that only a few individuals would do when purchasing a vehicle for £1,900. I am perplexed by the ability of some individuals to sleep peacefully while knowingly endangering the lives of others. I plan to return with a small group of pals and get a refund.
  12. Trims may be described as: The sequence is as follows: 2, GT Line, 3, 4, GT Line S. The number 4 is no longer available as a new item. The primary distinctions between GTL and 3 lie in the inclusion of motorised seats and a digital cluster. 4 & GTLS acquires 360 cameras and more valuable items.
  13. You can't go 50 years without seeing a high beam flashed by any vehicle, van, or motorbike I've ridden in.
  14. I don't know what you're talking about; neither do I, but I do know that flashing headlights have always served as a warning. Regarding the so-called "acknowledgment," I'd like not to have my eyes burned by a high-beam LED flash; a raised finger would do.
  15. The automobile is aesthetically pleasing, but it requires a strong desire to justify its price. Ultimately, the W211 model is ageing and seems noticeably outdated when compared to newer, more contemporary vehicles.
  16. It is necessary for you to get the automobile examined. These automobiles are expensive to repair, especially when it comes to issues like mag ride leakage. Are there any maintenance records available? The sales staff is initially amiable and accommodating throughout the purchase process, but their demeanour becomes markedly inhospitable when faced with post-purchase issues and the need for solutions. Safeguard yourself if you value your financial assets.
  17. Hello, how did you fare? I own a headrest for floppy drives. I am open to any recommendations about its use.
  18. Take a screenshot of this message since tfl's data system is unreliable, and you may get a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) in the mail at a later time. Also, welcome to the forum. Obtained from the official Transport for London (TFL) website. Discount for environmentally-friendly vehicles (Previously known as the Ultra Low Emission Discount (ULED)) Only cars powered by battery electric or hydrogen fuel cell technology are eligible for the cleaner vehicle incentive. Starting on December 25, 2025, the discount for cleaner vehicles will no longer be available. Starting from this day, all vehicle owners, unless they qualify for another discount or exemption, will be required to make a payment in order to enter the Congestion Charge zone during the designated charging hours. To avail of a discount, you may submit an application online. However, you must provide certain documentation as evidence of your eligibility for the discount.
  19. If you can successfully remove the big axle nut using an impact gun with a 36mm socket after releasing the punch tabs on the nut, and also remove the two large bolts that link the knuckle to the strut, you will have enough flexibility to determine if the splines of your axle can be readily removed or not. Striking the axle directly with a hammer will most likely make it unable to be used. Using a small section of 1 1/4 inch wooden dowel (available at stores like Lowes or Home Depot) as a buffer between the impact surface and the axle may be effective, but it is important to note that removing the axle may be difficult due to its tendency to resist sliding out easily. For what it's worth, I am now changing the front wheel bearing on the driver's side. I needed to use a 20 tonne press to remove the previous bearing from the knuckle, using the appropriate seven piece JLR shop tool. If you provide the knuckle, you can consider locating a nearby business that is willing to replace the bearing for you. Wishing you the utmost success.
  20. If you repair both front axles, you may avoid using the special tool by removing the old knuckles while the axle shafts are still in the hub(s). Mount the new axles into the 'new' hubs (I coat the new splines with anti-seize paste to make future removal easier, but some disapprove of this practice). An axle removal tool that is not specific to JLR vehicles may be purchased on Amazon for a price around $100. However, in order to use it with a full-size hub, you will need to get five M14 x 1.5 x 40mm attachments. Please refer to the picture below for more clarification. Exclamation marks! It is crucial to exercise caution to prevent any harm to the end of your axle if you want to reuse it.
  21. Ultimately, it boils down to identifying the appropriate specification. Aesthetics refers to the branch of philosophy that deals with the nature and appreciation of beauty, particularly in art and design. The performance is imperceptible to the buttocks. I was attracted to the modifications made to the gen2 body style, so I decided to make a buy. I am now observing the first generation models and my preference for them is increasing. Difficult decision
  22. The voltage drops to 12.54 volts when turned off, indicating that the battery is around 90% charged. When running, the voltage increases to 14 volts, which seems OK. However, the engine eventually shuts down, suggesting a possible problem with fuel supply. Possible cause: Fuel filter obstruction. The fuel pump is experiencing diminished performance. For the following instance, try running the engine without the fuel cap to test the effectiveness of fuel tank ventilation. The ignition circuit is experiencing a breakdown due to the increase in temperature (heat soak) damaging a component.
