Is it intended to be a kind of irony when the speaker expresses the opposite of what they really mean?
-
Could a moderator please relocate this to the suspension section? Since they have already indicated that I would be facing charges, what strategies do you propose I employ to gain their support or favour? To ensure clarity, I shared the email with the price of £222 per hour with CS and proceeded to discuss the matter further with them. I only called the shop on one occasion.

I have perused several discussions and am now in the midst of thoroughly going through all of them, as well as any other accessible web resources. The C class 60 plate has failed its MOT due to significant rust damage. The rust has caused a crack in the frame, which is located a few inches above the damaged area. The shock on the opposite side has likewise disappeared, and the front shock is deteriorating. Received notification from MBCS and instructed to schedule an appointment with the store. I was informed that I would need to bring it in and pay £222 per hour for staff to assess it, since it lacks Mobilo and MB service history. I declined the offer, providing reasons such as the ongoing recall in the United States, the availability of free-of-charge replacements, and supporting evidence from The Guardian article (which highlights Mercedes' refusal to cover the cost of repairing my corroded vehicle). Furthermore, I informed them that they were welcome to either retrieve the car themselves or examine it on my driveway, as other individuals have previously reported doing. It is worth noting that a visual inspection can be conducted without the need for a jack. I notified them that the vehicle's value is less £3k and that it is not economically feasible to fix it based on their pricing. Additionally, I sent them with a photograph of the MOT. After around 10 email exchanges, during which I clearly expressed my intention to escalate the matter to a formal complaint and involve the ombudsman if necessary, they have now responded by reiterating the same response and disregarding my request for information on their official complaint processes. I have perused this lawsuit filed in the county court about rust. The provided link leads to a webpage on the Honest John website, where a discussion is taking place regarding a car manufacturer being taken to court due to issues with their Is this the subsequent stage, despite not being the original owner? Thank you in advance for any advice.

The battery level is now at 65%. If this occurs again, I will proceed with inspecting the wires as recommended. Thank you for your guidance and assistance.
-
Thank you both. The concept of batteries is logical, however I have never seen it in any automobile before. There were several instances of autos failing to start in the morning. I opened the boot with the keyhole this morning and then tested the fob to activate the central locking. Everything is now functioning normally. I have scheduled an appointment for a battery test later today. I have no recollection of cable.

I drove home, pulled into the driveway, and clicked the'start' button to stop the engine. Suddenly, everything turned off. I am unable to remove the key or turn on the engine. There are no clicks, and there is no life in the vehicle. Do you have any suggestions?
-
Indeed, batteries, bulbs, and air filters are also included.

Although I am interested in the subject, I currently lack the necessary tools and knowledge to pursue it on my own. I have some experience in basic tasks such as changing brake pads and replacing a convertible hood, but more complex projects like this one are currently beyond my abilities and resources.

It is insane. The era of fast service has come to an end - presumably due to the widespread ownership of vehicles, which has resulted in increased congestion everywhere.

Am I the only one who finds it more difficult to schedule an appointment at a garage for necessary repairs? The CL is experiencing an unpleasant sound, namely a creak, scrape, knock, or rattle, originating from the rear-right suspension region. I want assistance in examining and addressing this issue. My regular service provider is unavailable until April 8th due to other commitments, and after checking with other nearby garages, they are likewise fully booked until early April. I have completed many online forms for garages located a little further away, but they have failed to respond to me. I understand that individuals may have prior commitments when customers arrive, but it is essential for all of us to have access to our vehicles for transportation purposes. Waiting for almost four weeks to get an appointment is irrational. Regarding those who do not react to online inquiries, what is the purpose of providing such a feature if there is no intention to reply? I had assumed that it would be feasible to get an appointment at some point during the next week, but evidently, that is not the case... Complaint finished.

I acquired my plug-in hybrid electric vehicle yesterday, which was equipped with Toyo tyres. I have driven 200 miles in it and have no concerns about the comfort or handling. It might have the updated suspension setup, but I am uncertain.
-
I inquired about the price of replacing the FRM at South Bay BMW. Painful!
-
Do you recommend that I decline these? Are they not composed entirely of carbon and encased with carbon? Is that pricing considered fair or not?
-
I was also doing research. I was unable to locate these items on the avant-garde website as well. Hoping they are indeed carbon. I will get them inspected at my independent store. Currently, I just have a deposit on them.
-
Avant-garde wheels. Refer to the image I shared above.
-
Yes, I am waiting for them from him. I have also revised my post. He is want $4500 for the set.
-
Hello everyone, Does anybody have carbon wheels on their cars? What is their appearance? Could you kindly provide pictures? What was the cost? What's new? Secondhand? A member of my group is offering to sell me their carbon wheels at $4500 since they are upgrading. Is this pricing reasonable for the set? Thank you for reading and any suggestions or assistance.

Thank you for your reply, I get the explanation. The vehicle has accumulated a mileage of 151,000 kilometres. The information on the previous replacement of the plugs is unknown. I will extract them, assess their appearance, and undoubtedly substitute them. This task is rather straightforward and likely necessitates their replacement. Indeed, you are accurate in stating that there are no codes pertaining to fuel, save for the one that triggers fuel cutoff as a result of engine knocking. However, this code is not associated with pressure in any way.

Today, while driving my 2007 Cooper S (automatic), I encountered a significant incline that stretched for around one mile. I was travelling at a speed of approximately 55-60 miles per hour. Approximately one-fourth into the ascent, I detect an anomaly, like a failed attempt by the gearbox to change gears. Subsequently, at around the midpoint of the incline, the engine began experiencing vibrations and decelerating. I successfully ascended the hill and proceeded to go a few further kilometres till I reached a petrol station. The engine operated well until when I engaged 6th gear in manual mode, at which point it would resume shaking. Upon arriving at the petrol station and coming to a halt, the engine exhibited significant trembling. Fortuitously, I had my diagnostic tool readily available in the rear compartment. Consequently, I connected it and retrieved the following error codes: The following diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) have been detected: - 2A56: Oxygen Sensor Heating After Catalyst (CAT) Function - 2777: Combustion Misfire in Cylinder 3 - 2D52: Digital Motor Electronics (DME) Super Knocking 2DCD - Fuel Shutoff Caused by Excessive Knocking in Cylinder 3 2781 - Multiple Cylinder Misfire During Combustion 2771 - Cylinder 1 experiencing combustion misfire. 2775 - Cylinder 3 experiencing combustion misfire. 277D - Cylinder 2 experiencing combustion misfire. I reset the error codes, adjusted the scanner settings to display misfires for each individual cylinder, started the engine, and promptly saw misfiring, mostly occurring in cylinder 2, but cylinders 1 and 4 were also affected. After a period of contemplation, I decided to transport it back to my residence by driving. When I analysed the data using the scanner, I saw that there was no misfire occurring over 3,200 rpm. However, when the engine speed dropped below this threshold, cylinder 4 exhibited severe misfiring. Additionally, while the vehicle was moving at a very slow pace, all cylinders were experiencing a significant level of misfiring. Upon arriving home, I reexamined the codes and found that they merely displayed the following: 2781 - Multiple cylinders experiencing combustion misfire. Error code 2775 indicates a combustion misfire in cylinder 3. The diagnostic trouble codes are as follows: 2771 - Cylinder 1 combustion misfire 277D - Cylinder 2 combustion misfire I have not conducted any inquiry beyond examining the codes. I am completely clueless on where to begin. Possible causes might include timing issues, compression issues, valve issues, and so forth. Any guidance would be much appreciated. Thank you!

I am certain that I pressed and held the "music note" button, which resulted in the appearance of a secondary sound menu. Within this menu, the line-in volume control option was there.
