Additionally, my SL500 R230 model does not include the stop/start feature.

Your assistance has been much appreciated. Thank you very much.

The Premium Plus CX-90 Inline 6 was purchased in August 2023, which was 10 months ago. The oil was replaced at 8,000 miles, the chassis was lubricated to address squeaks, and all software/firmware updates and recalls were completed. I mostly refuel her with standard petrol. Driving was mostly trouble-free, with the exception of the following irritations: 1. The temperature gauge is very imprecise and deviates by 5 to 10 degrees, till you drive for thirty minutes, at which point the temperature gauge seems to stabilise and provide more accurate readings. 2. The phone charger fails to charge my iPhone 12. The light remains green instead of changing to orange as expected, even indicating charging on the CarPlay screen. My iPhone's battery level remains same at 60% even after driving for 2 hours. 3. The most frightening irregularity is the cruise radar. I have experienced this on at least two occasions. I programmed the cruise control to maintain a speed of 70 miles per hour. However, when I encountered a bend on the motorway and an eighteen-wheeler was present in the opposite lane, my CX-90 abruptly applied the brakes and decelerated to 50 miles per hour, which greatly surprised and startled me. The radar seems to be susceptible to deception from tall cab vehicles, causing it to respond as if the CX-90 is about to collide with the truck from behind. Currently, I will refrain from using cruise control until I am able to take the vehicle for another inspection. Are you all encountering similar circumstances? Thank you.

Is it possible that the two new injectors are defective? I prefer not to remove them as it would incur a cost of £600 to reinstall. Additionally, the injector codes have been lost and I am unable to rewrite them due to the fading on the injector.

After spending £600 (or £1,200 including the cost of the injector seal process and recovering the car to the garage to remove the drilled bolts), the car still fails to start. The garage is unable to determine the cause, initially suggesting a lack of compression and later mentioning a lack of fuel pressure. However, the car was running perfectly before I removed the injectors to replace the seals.

The car is a 2010 Mercedes E-Class. Experienced a distressing situation with injectors and seals. The leak off pipe has broken. When removing the injectors. We had to replace two fuel injectors. Two injector bolts broke while attempting to tighten them, perhaps because the torque wrench was adjusted too high by the neighbour. My buddy attempted to drill them out, but the task was unsuccessful. The car's engine would crank but fail to start, leading me to suspect the presence of an airlock. Attempted to reprogram the 2 new injectors, but inadvertently cleared all 6 of the codes and was unable to restore them, perhaps due to a low battery causing the appearance of code erasure. Additionally, the numbers on 3 of the injectors are not visible. The automobile was sent to an engine repair facility at a cost of £100. The garage contacted me today to inform that two injectors have been installed in the vehicle. The cost for addressing the issue of the broken bolts amounts to £420. The person informed me that the automobile is not starting, which I suspect is due to an airlock. They said that they had attempted to start it for a while but have been unsuccessful. I advised them to continue their efforts, but I am uncertain about the potential cost involved. Does anybody have any hypotheses as to the cause of this occurrence? The car was operational prior to removing the injectors. Thank you

Does it imply that the system will be present but unable to function? The potential benefit of doing so would be to restore its functionality in the event that emissions testing became more stringent.

When contemplating the importance of the EGR system and its inherent intricacy and potential for issues, I stumbled into a video showcasing the complete removal of this system from BMW automobiles. Interestingly, there is even a kit available that includes blanking plates and other necessary components for this purpose. By boosting dependability and reducing clutter in the engine compartment, working on the engine becomes much simpler. Is it possible to do this on Mercedes vehicles, and what impact will it have on emissions testing during the MOT?

The AMG is very pleasing. Congratulations on your acquisition!

Return it to the dealer where you purchased it.

I too changed my battery with a CR2032 a few months ago and it is functioning well.

Incidentally. I resolved my query and verified it by contacting my close associate who holds the position of General Manager at Audi. He said that it is a period of 7 years starting from the day of delivery. I examined the delivery date of my automobiles, which was December 16, 2016. It is now clear why my 7-year Platinum warranty will end on December 16, 2024. I would want to get a fidelity extended warranty. The coverage commences from the date of car purchase, which occurred three years ago (regrettably). Considering that my automobile was already covered by Audi's warranty, it would be unnecessary for me to incur additional expenses for a new warranty. Similar to making retroactive payments for duplicate insurance coverage. Alternatively, maybe I am approaching this from an incorrect perspective. I am uncertain. Just to confirm, I want to ensure that I am referring to the correct "Fidelity" warranty business. Does this website belong to them?

Greetings, gentlemen. A few weeks ago, I saw that the dashboard in my Gen 2 vehicle is developing bubbles (experiencing delamination) around the vent region nearest to the windscreen. I booked an Appt w my dealer to come in this coming Monday. Those purchasing a pre-owned R8 should be aware that the maximum Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) guarantee available is a 7-year, 80,000-mile warranty. I assumed it began from the day you bought the car but I was mistaken. I purchased the automobile in December 2020. Thus, I have only used it for a duration of 3 years. I believe that the Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) guarantee applies retroactively to the date of the vehicle's first delivery. If you are purchasing a pre-owned R8 that qualifies for Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) status and you want to prolong the original manufacturer's warranty, it is important to be aware of the following information. I would want to inquire about the implications of purchasing a Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicle with a three-year warranty in December 2020. When the automobile was already 3 years old? Or maybe it wasn’t an option available because my vehicle was 3 years Old when I got it. The moral of the tale is that if you see any issues that you believe should be addressed by Audi, it is important not to procrastinate. At least have the vehicle evaluated by an Audi tech so it’s in the computer. And claim procedure has begun. I am aware that it takes many months to install a dashboard. But as long as the claim has begun then it doesn’t matter when the component actually arrives. Even if your warranty has expired. yeah and it’s a $250 deductible by the way. Additionally, there is a service cost of $299, which applies if AUDI determines that the item in question is not covered under warranty and no claim can be made. Essentially, if Audi categorises an expense as an out-of-pocket item, you will be billed $299 instead of the usual $250 deductible.

That is acceptable. I appreciate your assistance.

Thank you, that is extremely helpful. Is it just a direct exchange, without any further complications? Furthermore, did the numerical values of your component correspond to those of your new component? My car is a 2017 model with a 1.5-liter petrol turbo engine, therefore I believe it requires the same component.

The object has a bolt. I believed it to be the cam sensor. I am uncertain whether there were several options based on my investigation, and I have been attempting to correlate the codes with the markings on the plastic connector, but I have not been successful so far.

I have recently had a servicing and MOT. Additionally, there is an oil leak. I have been informed that it may be the cam sensor. Can anybody identify this component? In addition, I installed LED lights without realizing that they were not compliant with the law.
