This pertains to an SLK, however the same ideas are applicable.

This is a well recognized issue with these vehicles. There are two coils, each activating two cylinders/plugs. They are situated behind the plate above the cylinder head cam cover. It is secured by three or four Allen/Torx-headed bolts. It is necessary to detach the cross engine intake pipe. Upon removal of the plate, the plug leads and coils will be clearly visible. Any of the components may be defective, including the low voltage wire from the engine ECU, which often fails due to elevated temperatures from the engine. Numerous postings and images about the subject are available here; it is advantageous to peruse them.

Gasoline or diesel fuel. What is occurring with the engine?

Indeed, based on my experience, they will replace the oil and filter, as well as inspect for hidden nails or screws in the tires. There, you may have discovered a reputable Kia dealership. Best of luck

Perhaps. Provide the service history.

If your seat is positioned beyond the midpoint, the "normal" option may not allow for additional rearward adjustment. Consider adjusting to the "extended setting" to see if it shifts farther back.

My device provides a notification when it is ready. I own a garage door of the slam kind, and if I shut it with excessive force, it activates the alarm. That then provokes the dog, which subsequently provokes every other dog. When I am able to recall, I proceed to shut the door and then secure the automobile. Apologies if you happen to be one of my neighbours.

The 2012 Evoque is now subject to a recall. JLR refuses to assist me.
Messand replied to DolSquirrel's topic in General
I'm sorry to hear about your difficulties, that's quite unfortunate. Undoubtedly, the value of your resale and trade-in is more than that. Hopefully, someone with more expertise on the recall can provide you with assistance. -
AsdaTyres and Kwikfit provide a service where they will show you all the available brands depending on your vehicle registration number. They will then come to your location and install the tyres either for free or for a little fee. (I have not visited a tyre retailer in many years) Select one of the aforementioned brands and you will make a reliable choice. (I have a preference for Michelin or Goodyear)

- Replace all tyres with high-quality tyres, especially with a wet grip rating of 'A'. https://www.camskill.co.uk/m61b0s473p0/Car_Tyres_-_MPV_Tyres_-_People_Carrier_Tyres_-_18_inch_R18_inch_-_255_40_18_255_40R18 Although that may not be the news you were hoping for, you are still welcome here.

"Although they may be of low quality, they were inexpensive." The tyres you purchased are often referred to as "Ditchfinders."

Which codes were flagged? Did I not correctly interpret the first indications of a lean condition?

Discuss the phenomenon of resurrecting old threads. I believe that M5 London did not make an inquiry. He recently referred to the E39 M5. Indeed, the ESS tuning supercharger is a commendable piece of equipment. Operating at a pressure of 8 pounds per square inch. I plan to do a test with a pressure of 9 pounds per square inch (psi) next year. I had a tense situation yesterday. The Electronic Control Unit malfunctioned, causing the vehicle to enter limp mode. It seems that the issue is caused by excessive pressure on the accelerator pedal, particularly the use of the kickdown button when in high gears. Laughing out loud. STAR diagnostics detected many non-specific error codes. Simply need to observe and be patient!

What was the proportion of the $6000 that constituted labour cost?

Generation 1 is significantly distinct from Generation 2.

During my formative years at Gordano School, I resided in Portishead. It is worth noting that the situation has much improved since my departure, coinciding with the establishment of Portishead as the headquarters for Avon & Somerset Police.

I have made a reservation at the IBIS hotel in Portishead for the duration after the event. Uncertain of its nature, there is a Wetherspoons establishment located next to it.

If there is already no taxation on electric vehicles (EVs), the government may simply distribute a Vehicle Owners' Document (VED) form to all EV owners in February/March 2025. This form would require all EV owners to pay VED starting from April 1st, regardless of whether they are presently subject to a zero tax rate. One potential limitation that may be identified is the potential challenge faced by the DVLA in managing the simultaneous influx of applications.

The Toyo tyres that came with my 2015 CX-5 were original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Acceleration on wet days was challenging due to the slippery conditions. Substantial improvement seen after switching to Michelin Latitude Sport 3.

Finding them will be challenging since they are not available in the US. I searched JDM sale sites and successfully obtained the Recaro mount and slider together. Removes the need for the installed brackets that increase the overall height of the stack. Side mounted fixed chairs mitigate the problem. For bottom-mounted Sportsters, which is my intention, I didn't want to be sat an additional inch higher. I have set the standard seats to their lowest position and like them not to be raised much higher.
