Re: Jetronics specialists

Any Mercedes specialist knowledgeable about 1980s models will be capable of diagnosing difficulties. I am not located in the UK, but I anticipate that the SL shop will possess a comprehensive understanding of the matter. Mercedes, Ford, Volkswagen, and Rolls Royce all possess CIS, allowing for the p...

Re: E63 S Estate required for video production

Curious about their intended use for that? You could not compensate me enough.

Re: Brand new Ki Xceed 2 experiencing recognised throttle and engine issues—am I obligated to keep it?

Thank you for your feedback; I am pleased to hear that your concerns have been addressed.
There is no tire noise, just a straining, revving engine due to pressure on the accelerator. It may be something distinct.
Obtaining it for examination next week.

The transition to first and second ratios was facilitated, although the engine produced a more pronounced rasping sound while shifting to third and fourth speeds, which subsided after a brief period in the higher gears. More convenient yet louder! I will provide an update on my dealer data next week.

Deactivate your radio and listen for a motor's whirring sound after about 15 seconds. Maintain your foot flat on the floor until the sounds cease, as it undergoes many cycles. They are rather silent. After around 30 seconds, I would recommend considering it complete.

Re: Brand new Ki Xceed 2 experiencing recognised throttle and engine issues—am I obligated to keep it?

Greetings, thank you for your response and for validating my concerns, affirming that it is really a problem rather than my overreaction. I have not performed the throttle reset; nevertheless, they offered to examine it but said that it would likely not make a significant impact. I did not have gap ...

Brand new Ki Xceed 2 experiencing recognised throttle and engine issues—am I obligated to keep it?

This recognised problem makes driving this vehicle quite unpleasant, as it accelerates abruptly at intersections and emits a sound reminiscent of a 1970s camper van. I am aware that I am not the only one experiencing this defect. I am curious about the likelihood of my dealership accepting the retur...

Re: NFC Card Key

I store the card, along with credit cards, in a protected wallet. Otherwise, I am unaware; the likelihood of it occurring is so minimal that it is not a concern that would disturb my peace of mind.

Re: NFC Card Key

To open (or lock) the doors using the card, position it at the centre of the door handle for a few seconds.
