Re: Integrated flip-out towbar with no remote in the trunk
Actually, it's plug and play. Just wondering if any coding would be necessary? I will be sure to follow up. Many thanks

Re: Integrated flip-out towbar with no remote in the trunk
Completely arranged. It appears like the panel had split off the button cover, and the switch was hidden behind it. I only need to find out how to wedge the switch into the button slot, and everything will be working.

Integrated flip-out towbar with no remote in the trunk
About two years ago, we purchased our 2016 F10. A few weeks ago, we discovered that our vehicle had a towbar. The previous owner, of whom we are the third, was unaware of its presence. The boot does not have an activation switch, although it does have a slot for one. The original wiring was likely r...

Re: My drive does not have towing mode.
As far as I can remember, it should be visible the moment you switch drive modes, however it will remain greyed out until you attach a trailer. Towing a caravan without it could be risky because the car's sensors will respond to its presence. Plugging in the electrics allows me to back my caravan a ...

Re: My drive does not have towing mode.
To disable features like the reverse sensors while towing, among other things, the wire harness must be compatible with the Mazda ECU; however, an OEM towbar is not required. Return to the installer and request that they inspect the wiring.

Re: Online vs. USB Updates
Recently, I switched from sluggish broadband to considerably faster full-fibre, and the download time for the most recent update was far faster than all of the others I've done since 2016. Rather of spending three hours on it, the data was transferred to the USB device in about forty minutes. It jus...

Pressions des pneus e300 e 2026
This is Michelin, and I just got a 2026 e300 e with 275/30R20 and 245/40R20 tires. I was wondering what the recommended tire pressure is because the suspension seems harsh and shaky. I am on the 2.6 litre tank as it was overinflated when I picked it up; the other tank reads 2.8 litres. Tire pressure...

A wrench light indicates that maintenance is due.

Regrettably, I am unaware of any in the Essex area.
