  1. The employee at Costco was misinformed when I purchased my Bosch battery, as he insisted that I required a stop-start battery, which was incorrect. The C-HR does not employ a starter motor like a traditional stop/start engine does, allowing for the installation of a standard lead-acid battery, similar to the factory-installed one, but with a greater amp-hour (Ah) rating.
  2. I believe the cells are identical for both engines; however, you may get the largest capacity battery that fits in the tray behind the hood.
  3. https://www.eurocarparts.com/car-battery?utm_source=awin&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_term=ecp+homepage&utm_content=Skimlinks&awin+traffic&utm_campaign=Sub+Networks+78888&sv_campaign_id=78888&sv_tax1=affiliate&sv_tax2=815061&sv_tax3=Skimlinks&sv_tax4=chrforums.uk&sv_affiliate_id=78888&awc=3997_1760531470_0ef655f794be351351e859eb9856e19c
  4. Do you possess the 1.8 or 2.0 litre variant? Any of these options should suffice.
  5. The DVLA remains outdated; transferring a number plate from your vehicle may be done online, but only between 7 AM and 7 PM. If you want a new V5 for which you must pay, the transaction cannot be conducted online, and payment must be made by check or postal order. Earlier this year, I had to search through cabinets to locate an old cheque book.
  6. I inquired about the ICCU problem, and the answer was, "Oh, I haven't heard anything about that; it must be an isolated case!" I do not believe him. Although I preferred the EV4 over the EV3, I want to wait at least a year to observe future developments, since I still have two years of warranty remaining on my E-Niro.
  7. I attended the local premiere this evening and found the EV4 more impressive than the EV3, hence I may contemplate acquiring one in the future; however, it will need to surpass my 2020 E-Niro. I saw that it only has USB-C connectors, lacking USB-A ports, necessitating a reevaluation of my USB music library. The menus seemed to lack intuitiveness.
  8. I am aware that it is irrational to observe M automobiles lacking folding mirrors. I have observed these equipped solely with rear parking sensors. BMW tends to impose charges for these additional features that are often included as standard in other vehicles.
  9. If a button is absent, then folding mirrors are not equipped on the vehicle as normal.
  10. Oil and filter are changed every 6,000 miles after the first 3,000 miles. The chain was replaced. How many miles will it last? Please do not provide an answer.
  11. I never said that it would. It will temporarily reduce the noise. For instance, suppose you travelled from Norfolk to London by car. The chain began to produce noises; adding a can of Wynn's or STP may increase the likelihood of reaching home. No one has disclosed the mileage achievable on a new chain after 300,000 miles.
  12. I spoke with a BMW expert on this matter, and he said that if the vehicle has over 300,000 miles, the likelihood of the crank sprocket damaging the replacement chain is significant. If you own a motorbike with a chain that has elongated to the maximum extent permissible for adjustment. Installing a new chain may result in a lifespan of just one day. Always replace the chain in conjunction with the sprockets. No one will disclose the duration of the new chain's longevity after extensive mileage. Has anybody installed a chain on a 300,000-mile crankshaft?
  13. I saw several remarks about oil additives. Should your timing chain start to rattle. An effective additive will temporarily reduce noise levels. It increases the viscosity of oil. If your vehicle has accumulated 300,000 miles or more, what mileage can a fresh chain achieve? The crank gear resembles shark teeth at that point. Is a cost of 50,000 justifiable for a new chain?
  14. You have provided the solution to your own inquiry.
