  1. Visually, I would assert that 16-inch wheels would be compatible with a 320 model, whereas RealOEM indicates that the 325 rotors measure 311mm in the front and 300mm in the rear. I remember that the 4-cylinder diesel engines were identical to the 6-cylinder petrol engines (specifically, my 325 donor brakes). There is a sufficient inch of clearance between the callipers and my 17-inch rims, allowing ample space for a 16-inch rim. The 330d M-Sport rotors measure 330mm and 336mm, compatible with a 17-inch rim, but not with a 16-inch rim.
  2. Indeed, the E92 320 is equipped with smaller brakes compared to the 330s that feature 19-inch wheels. I now have 17-inch rims paired with 325 brakes on the 1993 model, which is identical to the 1992 model in this aspect. I will verify later today and inform you if a 16" will be suitable.
  3. I become rather anxious in the absence of crack; you will be OK.
  4. I possess a service plan that will expire in February following my third service. I have enquired with the dealer regarding a fourth and fifth service plan with Emac and have received a quotation of Β£889, which includes two MOTs. Is this quote worth removing?
  5. It appears to be a problem with the starter motor. Fairly prevalent.
  6. Forego the PHEV variant; if your true desire is a plug-in hybrid, simply acquiesce and purchase a Lexus TX. I have owned my 2025 MHEV for 8 months and 8,000 miles without encountering any troubles thus far. It is a great vehicle, significantly superior to our 2019 CX-9 Signature, which we sold with 80,000 miles on it.
  7. Since it is a secondary or sporty weekend vehicle, choose for the SLK, as it is widely regarded as a quintessential sporty automobile. Mileage - aim to remain under 100,000, a psychological threshold. A vehicle with minimal ownership and a full service history, particularly through Mercedes-Benz or independent services, is preferred. Has been serviced punctually, possesses numerous receipts, and is, in my opinion, invaluable. The tires can frequently reveal crucial information; for instance, having all four tires of the same reputable brand is advisable. The owner will invest a modest sum in his/her vehicle. The general state is another Purchasing from a private seller generally provides greater insight into the vehicle's maintenance and may reveal a legitimate rationale for its selling. If desired, have the vehicle inspected upon purchasing privately. Best of luck
  8. Elevate the front of the vehicle on both sides and remove the wheels; this will alleviate the stress on the bar. Detach the clamps and extract the bushes (they are fractured, hence no more action is required regarding the bar). Install fresh bushes and evaluate the outcome. Best of luck...
  9. Replace the arb bushes, since they produce significant noise after they have dried and hardened. Does the banging cease while driving in rainy conditions?
  10. Greetings, friend - Did you fix this issue? I have been experiencing the same problem for an extended period. Replaced the auxiliary battery, but it had no effect. Inquiring if it is the primary battery. The Start/Stop feature is similarly nonfunctional.

  12. Currently, there are three available on AutoTrader. Convenient for those desiring a somewhat elevated ride height without opting for an SUV. As far as I know, it is available just in estate form. πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  13. I agree with Tactical; if the chain is rattling, it need replacement, and thickening the oil will not restore it to its former state, just maybe muffling the sounds. While I lack the knowledge that Johnny has with these engines, based on my observations, it seems that the noise often originates from the top chain, whilst the crank sprocket remains intact. I have seen two instances of vehicles that began to rattle after being still for many weeks. The upper chain guides were discovered to be fractured, and when kept stationary for an extended period, the oil pressure in the upper tensioner diminished, causing the guides to disintegrate. If the rattling results from the degradation of the guide rails, no additives or heavier oil can mitigate the noise, and the fragments of broken plastic guide rail will ultimately obstruct the oil pump's pickup gauze. Chains that break for the second time are often attributable to inadequate maintenance or, more commonly, the installation of inferior chain kits obtained from eBay. The mileage is contingent upon the treatment of the engine; a well maintained engine with 300,000 miles may be in superior condition compared to a neglected one with just 50,000 km. Conclusion of the essay!
  14. For optimal range, choose the E-Niro 4+ with a heat pump, since it offers the greatest specifications. Significantly superior in terms of effectiveness. Numerous Niro EV proprietors previously owned the E-Niro and have similar sentiments. I have had the vehicle for little over 18 months, accumulating 10,000 miles, and have never recorded less than 290 on the gauge of mileage (GOM), with a maximum of 314.
