  1. I had a tyre similar to that on my MG ZT CDTI (BMW 320D engine) around two weeks after it was new. It was on the back, and I had to replace it along with a pig. I can't remember the exact name of the bush, but I'm sure it had the word "toe" in it.
  2. You got that right! They really handled it like pros, even offering me a full refund and saying they'd swing by to pick up the car from my place. But honestly, with a few dings here and there, it's no skin off my nose. We're talking about a 7 year old ride here, after all!
  3. My experience was alright, not perfect Bought a 2018 Audi A4 from them, the car itself is great mechanically, no complaints there. Only thing was it had a few more marks than I expected from the pictures. Delivery also took a bit longer than they first said, think it ended up being around 11 days To their credit though, I raised it and they offered me some money towards getting the cosmetic bits sorted, so they didn’t just brush it off!
  4. Since my vehicle is an E-4orce, I am unable to offer any guidance regarding certain aspects of the MHEV. Sure, it's common knowledge that certain 18-year-old diesels can go around the world on a single tank of petrol, but it doesn't really address the point. All I can say is that hybrid driving does require some practice. As is often the case, urban fuel economy is poor, but this is particularly true when travelling at high speeds on highways. It doesn't seem appropriate to get 20 MPG. If you only have a 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine with variable compression, it should be able to handle well on its own. Going back to the dealer and asking them to check might be worth it, in my opinion. Due to data protection requirements, the startup splash screen is present. Remote applications (like Nissan Connect) would not function without the massive amounts of data generated by the T33 and stored in the cloud, as is the case with the majority of modern automobiles. So, it's not something you can eliminate. There is a legislative component to the speed warning as well. There is no way to permanently disable it, I'm afraid. If you are able to improve the MPG, please let us know.
  5. First question I’d ask is whether you can see the vehicle in person, if they start saying it’s locked in a storage compound and can’t be viewed that would raise alarms for me. There are plenty of scam adverts on Marketplace and eBay where people send deposits and never see the car. Just be careful.

    What a lovely shade! Hello there!
  7. Historically, washers have been covered under warranty; however, we have been informed today that this is no longer applicable, and the cost to repair one that is blocked and nonfunctional is £175. This appears excessively costly. Has anyone else encountered a comparable experience?
  8. There are numerous accounts of defective batteries. While it may not be prevalent, the financial burden is substantial, amounting to £7,000. Why not consider a 320d?
  9. I have seen an individual on this platform having cells changed, but I have recently searched and cannot locate it. I will search more diligently later.
  10. I have seen individuals discussing the organisation of sales, but I am uncertain of the specifics. I hope my diesel vehicles will last me, since I will never go to electric.
  11. I suspect that one or two cells in the battery have died, and I believe yours is now out of warranty.
  12. Typically, one should not replace a single spring, since they 'settle' with time, resulting in a consistently uneven stance of the vehicle. Consequently, they are marketed in pairs.
  13. Search for 'vehicle throttle cable manufacturers' online. Speedy Cables specializes in custom orders and additional services. You may need to submit your previous one for duplication purposes.
  14. Utilize Google as a resource; search using the part number.
  15. While there may be some variation, this is my 212 Sport, equipped with factory springs and 18-inch wheels. Personally, I would want the rear to be lowered by half an inch, since I find the Sports to have a somewhat elevated rear stance, in my opinion.
