  2. If you are a generation member, please enquire here.
  3. Which relay did you utilise? Starting should not provide an issue above 0 degrees, even in the absence of glow plugs. An auxiliary heater, I have heard, is used in some locations where an electric heater is integrated into the coolant line to expedite warming; nonetheless, this should not influence a cold start.
  4. It has been some time since you posted this. I own a same model from 2011, namely the Insignia. Only the driver's door may be opened, and alone with the key. Neither the fob nor the internal controls of the vehicle will unlock the doors, even in the presence of a clunking sound. At times, it produces a clunking sound, at other times a clicking sound, however the doors stay secured. I attempted to detach the battery and reset the ECU; it was effective the first time, but not on the subsequent attempt. It is sporadic. Occasionally, it works flawlessly. Occasionally, starting the engine causes the internal controls to clank, while the doors remain inoperative. Numerous clonks later, they will. Did it stay constant for you? Most issues reemerge shortly after one is certain they have been resolved.
  5. I used a black brushed aluminium type wrap for my project, believing it superior to the largest plain black option.
  6. The 2020 facelifted variants lack a 12v battery and an access panel.
  7. Is their intention to change the Electronic Ignition System (EIS) located beneath the key slot, rendering any additional keys for the automobile inoperable? This does not sound accurate to me.
  8. My 2010 C350 CDI Sport saloon is equipped with what I believe to be an electronic suspension system. The vehicle's ride height is quite low, and the automatic gearbox quickly shifts into sport mode upon acceleration. Is the suspension designed to adjust the car's height based on the speed or the selected gearbox mode? I am not very bothered by it, I only wanted to understand how it is intended to function.

    I have a strong affection for your just acquired automobile. Congratulations
  10. I am interested to know whether individuals often perceive a higher-pitched sound and increased monotony when comparing titanium exhaust systems to stainless steel ones.
  11. If a vehicle was previously registered as a private hire/taxi, it will be shown as exempt until Transport for London (TFL) updates its records with the new registered keeper information.
  12. As said before, firmly close the bonnet to prevent the alert from appearing.
  13. Even if the message is no longer present, a code will still be recorded. The irregularity you are seeing is not a fracture or hole, but rather the intentional design of the heat shield. This is a routine occurrence and does not warrant any worry.
  14. That is the turbo, however I am unable to locate the fracture you mentioned. Scan it to determine the cause of the message's appearance.
  15. Hello, I have a defective message component E1/6e3 in module E1/6. However, I am unsure of the exact location of this component. May I get assistance from someone?
  16. It seems that you want to observe and supervise a mechanic as they do their tasks, much like a fly on the wall. I recommend establishing a cordial relationship with the proprietor and/or technician of a skilled automotive establishment, and proceeding accordingly.
  17. Additionally, you may attempt to locate a mobile mechanic with prior experience servicing R8 vehicles. They have the ability to replace the exhaust system in only one day at your location.
  18. I am use the bimmer-code application in conjunction with the veepeak OBD connection.
  19. Thank you for responding. Could you please clarify your statement? "With a percentage range of 58-62%, it is unlikely to happen in the near future."
  20. I am uncertain whether I am excessively analysing this, but I watch the values of the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) to ensure that I do not disrupt the regeneration process and maintain optimal performance of the vehicle. Nevertheless, I have seen that the amounts of soot are elevated compared to my usual observations, and the automobile has not undergone a regeneration process. I conducted a back pressure test and performed a code scan on the vehicle, and everything seemed to be in proper working order. Typically, I would see the app indicating that a regeneration process is occurring while the battery level is about 45%. However, recently I have noticed that it has reached levels over 60%. Approximately two weeks ago, I became somewhat concerned and started a regeneration process when the soot levels reached approximately 62%. As of today, the soot levels have decreased to roughly 58% with a total of 35 grammes of soot. I would want to avoid a forced regeneration again, thus I would like to ascertain if what I am seeing is within the expected parameters or if there are any specific indicators that I should be vigilant about.
  21. Increasingly inquisitive...Today, as I entered the vehicle, it prompted me to select the time. I saw that the Time option had reappeared. Adjust the clock...hooray!! Arrived at Wadebridge, once again the clock displayed an incorrect time. Scary! However, the Time option remained accessible. Therefore, I disabled the automatic time setting, re-enabled it, and everything has been functioning properly ever since. An enigma. Thank you for any ideas that have been received.
  22. Thank you for that. Regrettably, it is not the problem in this case. The Time option is barely visible, but the pointer bypasses it.
