  1. I apologise for not responding to your query earlier. The answer may be found under the Navigation menu.

    If I apply excessive pressure on the accelerator, I get a warning about the presence of a speed camera. However, the current functionality of the system is limited to fixed cameras, including average speed cameras. It does not support mobile cameras. Therefore, I am interested in discovering a method to upload the Road Angel or a comparable database. Mercedes automobiles have this capability a decade ago.

    Curiously, I also get an unexpected audio message warning of a "congestion zone ahead" at peculiar locations. There are six specific locations where this consistently occurs, regardless of whether I am driving towards or away from them. One location is situated in a nearby community, while the other is encountered when driving by the municipal waste disposal site.

  2. Even when the sat-nav was not in use, my CX5 with an 18 plate had built-in speed camera alerts.

    Regrettably, it seems that this feature is no longer present on my new and sleek CX60, which feels like a significant regression. Is it correct to assume that I will need to spend money on a separate device?

    I would be delighted to learn if someone has successfully implemented speed camera alerts, even if it requires some intricate work.

    Thank you.

  3. Although they will continue indefinitely, only those who are willing to put in the effort will be able to preserve them.

    There is a valid argument for purchasing a vehicle with lesser mileage due to its higher resale value and little decrease in worth. Additionally, by avoiding the need to replace certain components, one may further enhance the vehicle's desirability.

  4. I would have expected them to be able to identify the problem at the very least.

    My process involves searching for codes, verifying the fuel's location, and inspecting for excessive leak off at one or more injectors.

    However, a diagnostic check would detect the inability to achieve the required fuel pressure level, which is necessary for the engine to start. Basic diagnostic readers are capable of doing the task.

  5. If the procedure is similar to that of my C Class, you must release the bonnet from a height of around 8-10 inches instead of just pushing it closed. Failure to do so may result in improper engagement of one or both of the locks, leading to a warning on the dashboard.
    It is likely a characteristic exclusive to German automobiles, since my BMW experiences the same issue.

  6. Is accessing, removing and cleaning the intake manifold and cooler a particularly challenging task? The only instance in which I have performed any cleaning related to the EGR system was on a previous vehicle, namely a 2006 E90 model.

    Regrettably, in my occupation, I often engage in several brief trips and encounter frequent stops due to traffic congestion. I regularly provide a bi-monthly treatment of Wynn diesel injector cleaner to it, in addition to taking it on frequent motorway drives.

  7. Greetings

    Can someone identify the EGR valve in the picture of my BMW 120d e82 2010 m sport with an N47 engine?

     


    I conducted a search on the YouTube platform.The EGR valve on the 120d e82 has a distinct appearance like that of a flying saucer. The EGR cooler refers to the larger metallic block that is coloured silver.


    Could someone identify the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve in the picture below? If you are able to encircle it or provide a description, I would really appreciate it.

    Seeking to remove it and thoroughly clean it.

    I attempted to adhere to George's instructional video.
