  1. Even with fresh tyres and an alignment, the temperature of my driver's side rear tyre consistently runs slightly higher. Occurred in both of my R8 vehicles. Based on my assumption, the driver's side of the vehicle is likely to be heavier when there is just one person in the car and the engine is located in the back. This is because there is greater weight on that particular wheel. 🧐
  2. This video is highly recommended for seeing. It is produced by a highly esteemed independent company based in the United Kingdom.
  3. Inconel surpasses both options in terms of performance and quality.
  4. Significantly improved throughout the 1990s. My Mazda CX9 required an excessively long time to generate heat and never achieved a very low temperature.
  5. Bring it to your nearby Demolition Derby. It is preferable to exit in a spectacular and triumphant manner rather than deteriorating gradually on someone's driveway.
  6. To ensure safety, it is advisable to have the vehicle transported by a flatbed truck to your preferred repair shop. Inform your insurance company that the vehicle is not in a drivable condition. When obtaining an estimate, it should not be difficult to arrange for an insurance estimator to visit the shop, particularly if they inspect the bumper to assess any further possible damage.
  7. If any of the engine mounts have malfunctioned, the application of throttle or release of torque may result in excessive movement of the engine, perhaps leading to the production of noise. Regardless of various reports, it is necessary to have them installed, as this action may potentially resolve your problem. Perhaps not as severe, but the concept is understood.
  8. Thank you everybody for your contributions. I have finally resolved the issue with my phone battery, thanks to Tactical.
  9. Success! Thank you so much, Tactical. What a foolish person. Indeed, my phone's battery level was critically low at 12%.
  10. Greetings. I have just seen that the battery symbol on my 2017 Venga Radio Satnav Infotainment system is indicating only one bar of energy. Has anybody else encountered this phenomenon, please? Is the poor performance limited to the Infotainment system or does it affect the whole car? Thank you in advance for any assistance.
  11. Please refrain from being impolite, since this is my hometown and I still have relatives living there. I believe I could be present.
  12. Are you currently using your phone or a dashcam? There is a possibility of a connection dropout. Recently, I made the observation that on occasion, a message is shown on the driver display, but in a diminutive and low-level format, with a brief duration of visibility. It may be worthwhile to examine it in the future. Ultimately, I recommend creating a film and presenting it to a dealer, asking about their opinion.
  13. The first segment of your narrative evokes memories of Belgium's colonial history in Congo throughout the course of the previous century. Do you work as a manual labourer?
  14. If you possess the ability to replace brake pads, you can proceed by removing the wheel and inspecting the issue at hand. By doing so, you can determine if it is perilous to continue driving or not. Additionally, having the ability to clearly communicate the necessary repair to a garage may facilitate the process of scheduling an appointment.
  15. It seems likely, Micobe. Considering altering the timing chain as a precautionary measure.
  16. Thank you for the responses. I just completed an 80-mile journey and the issue did not occur, indicating that the problem may have been caused by an excessive amount of oil in the automobile. Before the oil change, the warning light illuminated every time I used the vehicle.
  17. It sounds quite promising! I will attempt to measure the pressure today. No light has been detected yet. I was surprised by the 13 litres.
  18. I have some inquiries for you all and would appreciate your assistance. Purchased a 2008 320i at a discounted price because of the low oil pressure warning light. Considering the cost, it was a worthwhile risk. I saw that the light would illuminate around 15-20 minutes after the automobile was started. Therefore... I removed the oil cover and inspected the chain for slack, but found none. The chain seems taut and well-fitted. I have performed an oil change and replaced the oil filter on the vehicle. Now, here is where things becomes intriguing. There were 13 litres of oil in the automobile. I was surprised to see that the oil seemed to be in excellent condition, free of any metal particles, which I had learned would indicate a problem if present. The oil filter was worn, but no metal fragments or similar debris were found. The oil filter was replaced, and about 4.5 litres of oil were added to the automobile. It has been 2 days and the low oil pressure indicator has not illuminated at all. Can we attribute the cause to the 13 litres of oil? verbose message I would appreciate any answers and thank you for taking the time to read!
  19. I often ponder why individuals choose to indicate their location as the UK instead of specifying the neighbouring city. If we had a general idea of your location, we might suggest a place that could provide assistance.
  20. The cost of the sensor arm is low, whereas the sensor itself is not inexpensive. Hopefully, it is the arm.
  21. If you possess dexterity, examine the back sensor. If you are able to detect a fractured arm, you may proceed to replace it for a sum of around Β£30. Below is my thread documenting the light difficulties I had with my E class. Although they may differ from yours, it will provide you with a visual reference to the location of the rear sensor with accompanying pictures.
