I question the advisability of depending on an accuracy beyond +/- 2.5% (about 1.7 psi range), as these measurements are likely to deviate over time due to ageing. Furthermore, in the absence of a zeroing system in the vehicle, inaccuracies are probable, and factors such as ambient temperature and pressure may also exert an influence. What is the accuracy of your setup device?

Exclusive Range Rover available for purchase

It is not the translation that astonished me, but rather the absence of any more description. To be fair, nearly all advertisements are fundamentally similar in this region. Six words and two images, one typically depicting half of the vehicle and a substantial portion of the adjacent road or dusty path on which it is situated. This encapsulates the Cypriot lifestyle: "Indeed, whatever sells, sells." 🤷🏽♂️ One must appreciate them for that. -

Observe what you are neglecting. I discovered this special edition full-fat RR while perusing classifieds in Cyprus. The description need additional refinement. Land Rover Range Rover 4.6L 1987 — €25,000

I am uncertain when the wheels were installed, but if it was done by the prior owner, they will be present. His license plate would presumably have incurred a cost in the five-figure range. He possessed numerous coordinating plates. Both numerals succeeded by his two initials. Is there a definitive method for ascertaining? I was considering taking them to a wheel shop. I recognise that repetitions can be really beneficial. -

Alloys are entirely a matter of personal preference, and I would not be offended if someone disapproved of them. I have a strong preference for them; yet, I find the penta appealing as well and am open to acquiring those too. I would likely just desire authentic items, and I am certain they are not inexpensive. I appreciate the extended tires; but, I may consider switching to the appropriate specifications when they require replacement. -

Thank you. Indeed, I concur. In addition to the substantial engine, it is a notably heavy vehicle. I read that the V8 would result in reduced stress while manoeuvring this vehicle. Had it been of lesser value, I would likely have departed. It is exceptionally smooth, accompanied by the distinctive V8 burble. I may adjust the exhaust as it is somewhat subdued. However, that is positioned lower on the list. -

I observed an automobile many weeks ago when driving by a nearby automotive dealership. Last week, it remained present, prompting me to examine it online upon my return home. I was immediately enamoured. Excellent condition both internally and externally. I was apprehensive regarding the mileage from the history check, as it had barely accumulated 700 miles in four years, totalling 132,000 miles. However, I felt compelled to acquire it. I returned it to its former garage, accompanied by comprehensive documentation. The reason for the low mileage became evident. The former proprietor was affluent and possessed an extensive automobile collection. It is evident that it has been well-maintained throughout its existence. I eagerly anticipate attending car exhibitions, as it is quite uncommon to see only approximately 128 vehicles on the road, with merely 28 in this particular colour. Parking in the vicinity may pose a challenge. It is really lengthy.

The springs on your vehicle are calibrated specifically for it, based on the number and weight of extras installed during its manufacture. Numerous forum entries indicate that owners who have installed aftermarket springs often find their vehicles either too elevated or insufficiently lowered compared to the appropriate stance with OEM components. In response to your inquiry, they are indeed a respected company; nevertheless, for a little additional cost, I would recommend acquiring the appropriate components, particularly if you want to retain the vehicle. Have you inquired about a discount from the dealer? - Consider contacting MB Grangemouth, since it may be worthwhile.

The only source for the appropriate springs is the dealer; aftermarket springs are a "one size fits all" solution. Your springs are customized to your vehicle's specific choices, as indicated by the colored bands on the coils from the factory. Purchase the appropriate items in a set; failing to do so may incur long-term costs.

While this was the situation, vehicles shipped in the latter part of the previous year and beyond were equipped with the latest software, making USB updates unfeasible. I infer that the USB upgrade is no longer necessary. It is hoped that some individual possessing a recent 2024 - 2025 vehicle may provide confirmation.

The Kia Connect app does not provide average miles per gallon, and to my knowledge, it never did. I am unable to address your question about the over-the-air upgrades; I disabled mine, but you were required to do so early last year.

What is the purpose of the CI/PCMCIA slot on my NTG 4?

MP3 files may be played directly from it; maintain a basic file structure since navigation will occur via the head unit display. All track data should be shown on the screen during playback. -

Mine has an SD card adapter filled with a substantial amount of music, far exceeding the native HDD space. However, the majority of my music is streamed via an Apple Bluetooth adaptor from my phone. -
Thank you for the suggestions; silver is not my preferred shade, therefore I am uncertain whether to choose black or carbon. Based on my understanding, removing the wrap will not damage the original trim, correct?

Disenchanted with the wooden inside and want to cover it in black. Which of the three would you recommend, or is there another option you have tried?

I will get an insurance quotation, and it will be as it is. -
I am considering two distinct 2022 2.0 GR Sports models. One has the older Connect Multimedia, while the other incorporates the modern Smart Connect. I only use CarPlay in a vehicle, so I am unconcerned with the older system's latency or sluggishness. However, are there any distinctions in sound quality between the old and new systems? This will be a determining factor for me.

Forscan is available for free download, with the first two months of the extended licence at no cost; the annual extended licence is priced at £11.93. When I attempted to access the tire sensor module, it prompted me to purchase the extended licence.

Crank but no start; potential short circuit?

I have not yet progressed to checking the power at the relay. I assume I can remove the relay to test the pins, or is there an other technique to do this? -

I have unplugged the plug and tested it; I do not see 12V on the positive wire when the ignition is activated. I have inspected fuse 3 and 54, and the relay has also been replaced. I get 5 volts in the next wire.
