  1. Could you tell me which symptoms made you decide that your struts needed to be replaced? Even though there are no other indications of a battery shortage, the erratic nature of our tailboard issue—for example, it opened completely this morning but required manual lifting to be fully raised after a 30-minute drive two days ago—leads me to believe that it might actually be an electrical power issue rather than a strut fault.
  2. Thank you; I understand. All of that sounds simple today.
  3. and (difficultly!) feed the cables through. I'll look around to see if YouTube has anything that can help. I should also mention how elegant your motorcycle looks in dark green.
  4. Particularly the part about no programming, it sounds fantastic. Are you referring to the full-width inside black trim item when you say "pop off the trim"? …: Everything appears to be in one piece. I had assumed that the rubber grommets might need to be removed (see picture).
  5. Since you say that fitting them is very simple, I would give that a shot. I see some nice-looking ones on eBay for AUD $167 each. After the fitting, did you need to recalibrate the electronics? (I also liked the last vehicle wash video.)
  6. Hello everyone According to earlier articles, powered tailgates are a frequent cause of issues with the Evoque. Our 2014 TD's tailboard (90k klms) is steadily becoming less dependable, therefore I'm wondering whether there's a less costly way to replace both struts with LR parts (AUD$1090 each). The symptoms vary, but over the past six months, there has been a gradual decline in function; the patient frequently opens, but now rarely to its full height and occasionally not at all. Both lever and fob activation cause this. I am aware that a weak battery is frequently cited as the cause, but there are no other indications of battery issues, and I am now observing that the tailboard frequently does not open at all when the car arrives at its destination after a respectable drive, which does not seem to be consistent with a weak battery. I believe I'm right when I say that the strut action incorporates both pneumatic and electric/spindle driving components, with the latter reducing the oomph needed for the electrics to function. Is it possible to re-gass the struts? Here, OEM struts are priced at about AUD$500 per. Has anyone found success using eBay or other after-market electric strut replacements? I would be grateful for any other recommendations.
  7. I have encountered an issue wherein the starter motor influences the selection of drive mode. It may be that.
  8. Is this function accepted by insurance?
  9. Recently, I found a VED return check that was more than six months old; my lack of bank visits over the last year likely caused me to set it aside. Utilising cheques for reimbursements may well be a prudent decision by the DVLA.
  10. Greetings to everyone, With much assistance from everyone, my 2018 SE Tech has been exceptional after resolving early concerns with the thermostat and actuators. It has successfully passed two MOTs without any problems and is a pleasure to drive. I am now focused on the future, since it has reached £138,000. (mostly before to my acquisition, however it is entirely pristine both internally and externally) and I am uncertain how much longer it will remain cost-effective. The P300e would be an ideal choice for my next vehicle when the time comes for a change; but, I am apprehensive owing to the many HVHC concerns I have seen in discussions here. I have also seen folks stating it is the finest automobile they have ever drove or owned.I ask owners to share their opinions on whether they would suggest the P300e after having a favorable experience with the diesel Evoque. I am particularly interested in hearing from people who have accomplished it. 🙂
  11. From what time?...merely inquisitive...I am aware of one completed FOC last month on a 2009 212.
  12. If the issue arose after you had been driving it, it is plausible that it operated correctly following the component change. Was the riding height OK upon collection?
  13. The effective functioning of the compressor has uncovered an additional problem. I suspect a problem with the release solenoid or the level sensor on the high side.
  14. This pertains to the Charge Cable manufactured by MENNEKES; however, I do not have the same issue when charging the vehicle with the Ohme wallbox.
