What is the typical operating temperature for your device? It is quite probable that they have restored them to the suggested settings. They would not all be sitting at -5psi if they were losing air.

What is the recommended tire pressure for them?

The wheels are aftermarket, not original.

Greetings, I have installed 19-inch wheels on my e350, with the rear wheels being staggered. I am enquiring whether anybody has implemented this configuration on their car.May I enquire about the pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) at which you all are operating your equipment? The tire sizes for the front are 235/35/19, while for the rear are 265/30/19. Thank you

Kia excels in one thing - inadequate communication with customers, and maybe even with dealerships! I hypothesise that the alterations in brake horsepower (bhp) are directly related to the difficulties manufacturers are encountering in meeting their net zero objectives. We are seeing the gradual decline of combustion engines fueled by petrol and the transition towards fully electric vehicles. I am quite pleased to own a bus pass.

If Kia follows its typical pattern, the Sportage Shadow specification will have a brief lifespan and will cease to exist within a few months. Kia has a track record of releasing special versions of the Sportage, including the 'First Edition' (often introduced with a new design), 'GT-Line Edition', 'Platinum Edition', and 'JBL Black Edition'. All of them had a brief lifespan and often occupied a position slightly higher than a GT-Line, but lower than a GT-Line S.

When you download the specification sheet, it displays the current MY25 specification. Last year, they implemented this action when the MY25 standard was introduced at a later time throughout the year. I am unable to provide an exact date from last year, however the MY25 specification was already out by the time I placed my vehicle purchase in November 2023. Despite the dealer's inability to promise it, we received the MY23 standard as requested in late March 2024.

To clarify, I no longer engage in such activity...😉

I did same, shortly after acquiring the item. While travelling south towards the ferry, I made a stop at the services. Unfortunately, I had a problem with the locks, as they were not functioning properly. What is the current situation? I am unable to go on vacation due to a vehicle that cannot be unlocked. After pondering for 5 minutes, I realised that the extra keys are located inside the bag in the trunk of the car. Oops!

Were there any indications of potential failure that may assist the rest of us? Is there anything you would have done differently?

Send a private message to @baelicious. However, baelicious could do it before you do.

There is an affordable delivery/collection option available, although it may take a few days. In my opinion, this might offset the high prices for deliveries to the home counties. It could be worth considering.

If you are able to deliver the automobile to Mike, he is our expert in engines and repairs them professionally. His charges are really affordable, and he consistently fulfils his promises.

That is incorrect. The purpose of the hook is to facilitate locking. Ezmass suggested that the cap may be placed on the flap by inserting it between the threads and outer flange.

Indeed, it is peculiar to see a decrease in pricing, particularly considering the fact that I have just filed a claim. I had not previously opted for the service plan since I did not anticipate on keeping the car for an extended period of time (it was only a temporary solution till I transition to an electric vehicle). However, I may consider exploring that option now.

I have been making monthly payments of £43 for an ongoing contract for an extended warranty on my 2015 C350e vehicle. I have the option to quit this contract at any moment. The underwriters have assessed the warranty packages for each category of MB automobile. I was informed this morning by phone that my warranty would be reduced in cost starting this month, to £40 per month. The warranty coverage and terms and conditions remain same, only a drop in price has been made. This reduction in price is likely due to the underwriters discovering fewer or less expensive claims than anticipated, allowing them to lower the insurance cost. I inquired about the cost of switching from monthly payments to upfront payments for a warranty lasting either 12 or 24 months. The offered prices were as follows: £419 for a 12-month warranty (£34.92 per month) £713 for a 24-month warranty (£29.71 per month) It is a favourable agreement if someone has the funds readily accessible to make an upfront payment. Nevertheless, the guarantee provided by MB is contingent upon maintaining regular auto servicing only at MB dealerships, which I find acceptable. I just saved around £700-800 as a result of having my thermostat updated under warranty. Upon reviewing the policy conditions once more, I have discovered that the warranty also provides coverage for my automobile in Europe. Consequently, I am considering taking my car to the continent for a trip. I would like to inquire about the cost of obtaining the same coverage from Warrantywise. Specifically, I am interested in selecting a garage labour rate of £150 per hour including VAT and setting a repair limit of £10,000, as the MB warranty covers claims up to the market value of the car. Additionally, I would like to know if Warrantywise offers a zero excess, similar to the MB warranty. The monthly cost is £102.44. Despite modifying it to a £100 deductible and a £1,000 repair limit, the monthly cost remains at £62.64, which exceeds the MB guarantee by over 50%.

I like the profit and loss line item. LOL The current condition in some cities is lamentable.

Has anybody have experience with the Motoreasy warranty?
HolyRoach replied to FreexPatty's topic in General
I am OK with purchasing a four-year-old automobile that is no longer covered by a warranty. Although it may be a very minor risk, I have seen that significant issues with the automobiles I purchased tend to occur during the first three years while still covered by someone else's warranty. I choose to maintain a reserve of £500 as a contingency fund in the event of unforeseen circumstances. Prior to purchasing my CLS55, I had never encountered the need to make a significant financial investment. However, considering that it is dated 2006, one must acknowledge the limited options available in the event of a failure in the SBC, SAS, steering pump, or steering rack. Either I will retain it indefinitely or the subsequent owner will not need to repair them. -
Are you inquiring about the value of incorporating carbon fibre into the engine compartment? In my opinion, the investment is justified since it enhances the engine compartment with a more distinctive and unique appearance. Typically, I see that used sets on eBay are priced at about $3,000.

I agree with MutanX viewpoint that frame fractures are often exaggerated, but, it is still prudent to get photographs of the frame while making a purchase. I recommend exercising caution when driving over potholes and refraining from exceeding speeds of 80 mph while encountering a pothole, particularly if you are driving an older vehicle.

According to others, the battery in question is an AGM battery. They suggest that any trickle charger with an AGM setting would be suitable for charging it. CTEK is often the preferred brand.

Many decay inside. The Alfa Brera is a classic example.
