  1. @Lemmand – Not acquired a car, but last autumn I used Kismis Transport to move some industrial kit from Sheffield to Newry. Their timings and updates were exactly perfect. You're probably good if the side of the company deals with cars like their transportation services. Still, I would be careful with payments and make sure they are made securely.
  2. Greetings, everyone. I just acquired a brand new GT-Line S and am astonished that the Kia Connect app does not provide average MPG or trip MPG. Both the BMW app and the Mercedes app provide this information. Have I inadvertently overlooked it in the application? I have also heard that a manual upgrade via USB must be executed prior to the activation of over-the-air updates. Is that indeed the situation? Thank you very much
  3. It pertains to any model to which it is applied. My 212 E350 is self-steering. How would you know? You have only acquired this knowledge nonetheless. 😀😀

  5. If you are aware, you are aware. 👍 However, Maintain a speed below 20mph to enable the PARKTRONIC® system with Active Parking Assist to identify a parking space for you. The sensors will activate when your Mercedes-Benz identifies a suitable adjacent parking place, indicated by an arrow. Engage the vehicle in reverse; it will then enquire whether you want to activate the Parking Pilot. Press "Ok" on the steering wheel to begin. Gradually reduce pressure on the accelerator and use the brake as necessary to initiate the reverse manoeuvre into the parking space. Your Mercedes-Benz will autonomously manage the steering wheel. Adhere to the PARKTRONIC® with Active Parking Assist instructions to determine whether to shift the vehicle into drive or reverse. Upon reaching the designated location and aligning the vehicle, your Mercedes-Benz will indicate "Finished," allowing you to shift the car into park. To park on the passenger side, you must use the indicators and maintain a speed of 10 mph.
  6. It has identified a vacancy and is enquiring whether you like to park in it. 😀
  7. The 9-speaker JBL system was an available feature on the UK GR Sport model, which is the specification the original poster is considering. For what it's worth, the JBL option is advisable for a UK GR Sport, since it includes Alcantara and motorised seat adjustment.

  9. The original poster said that using Apple CarPlay makes the 2022 model year C-HR with Smart Connect preferable, since it has wireless CarPlay.
  10. The latest Smart Connect system has wireless Apple CarPlay, which may assist in your decision-making. If you like high-quality music, continue searching for a C-HR equipped with the optional 9-speaker JBL system.
  11. Prospective buyers of a first-generation C-HR should be well informed; the decision to proceed with the purchase rests with them.

  13. Numerous reports indicate that some individuals have had multiple items confiscated.
  14. Prior to purchasing a first-generation C-HR, have you obtained an insurance quote? Many companies either refuse coverage or significantly increase the cost due to theft concerns. Regarding the GR Sport specification, do both models include the normal six-speaker audio system, or does one of them provide the optional nine-speaker JBL system?
  15. It seems that Jaguars would not need any AdBlue, since they are often transported on breakdown trucks. 😆
  16. Be cautious, since some Amazon Faraday shield products/bags may not function well. Additionally, it is possible to unlock your car by touch even while the FOB is within certain Faraday containers, as long as you are holding it outside your vehicle at close range. I keep both of my FOBS, with one set to hibernation mode, inside my house or room. I place them in a small stainless steel cookware container with a fully enclosed metal cover. This container effectively blocks the signal completely, regardless of the distance.
  17. The subpar OEM/Factory flooded-cell batteries have a little chance of lasting 2-3 years in modern, technology-packed automobiles. Be grateful that you were able to use yours for 2.5 years before encountering any problems. Some individuals fail to successfully navigate the first year without encountering challenges. Substitute it with a high-quality 650+CCA AGM battery that is the appropriate size and fit, and the issue(s) will be resolved. Prior to reaching the 2-year milestone, I took the initiative to replace the original battery in my CX-30, even though it was still functioning. I made this decision because I was aware of the potential risks involved, as I had previously had many battery failures with my 2020 Toyota during a difficult 2-year period before purchasing the CX-30 in 2022.
  18. According to the service handbook, it is possible that -2- may have a securing plug. Therefore, it is important to be cautious and aware of this possibility.
  19. HID headlamp units should be equipped with two adjusting screws: one for vertical adjustment (-1-) and another for horizontal adjustment (left/right).
  20. Perform a thorough scan of the automobile using a suitable diagnostic tool specifically designed for VAG vehicles, such as VCDS, OBDeleven, Carista, ODIS, and others. The BCM/J519 module regulates the operation of the exterior lighting system in B8 models. In the event of a malfunction, an error code may be generated to indicate this issue. It should be noted that HID headlights use a sliding shutter to regulate the dipped and high beam configurations. You failed to indicate whether or not you conducted a comparison between the two HID beams when they were in the high-beam setting.
  21. The value in this context is undoubtedly a crucial determinant. I experienced a significant change while transitioning from a 2016 registered E 350 to a 2018 registered GLC 350 coupe, which came as a shock to me. However, as previously stated, the value of the car to be insured was twice as much.
  22. I am certain that there will be. Otherwise, how can you completely remove all coolant from the system? Or at least 90%.
  23. Thank you for responding. Obtaining the radiator drain plug is not a problem and can be found where you said.
  24. Firstly, please provide your opinion on the process of purging the coolant system? Could you kindly provide the location of the drain plug for the engine block on an e320? Finally, if I do not cleanse the system, I am considering disconnecting the lower radiator line and directing a stream of clean water, maybe via the coolant expansion tank or the top radiator hose. Thank you.
  25. These autos are of high quality. I myself want a fancy one, but the justification for operating anything of such magnitude given that we lack woofers is quite weak.
