Re: Oil leakage from the timing chain cover
I changed the O-ring almost two years ago, and it now seems intact, with no leakage from that side.

Re: How can I prevent the fan from activating at full capacity each time I power it on?
I saw in a different discussion that you mentioned using Auto. Based on my experience, activating Auto will cause the fans to operate at maximum capacity at initiation for an extended duration. I believe that is due to the automatic system attempting to demist and heat all areas uniformly. I have no...

Re: Issues encountered with a 2014 F13 640D at 200,000 kilometres
It would be unexpected if you had not had to replace certain suspension components, such as the upper and lower control arms, and experienced no power steering troubles.

Re: Depleted Battery Alert
Agreed, I have only seen this once after not driving the vehicle for five days. When I started it and drove, the engine did not activate for nearly a mile (HEV), which causes me to conclude that it is not necessarily a depleted battery, but rather that it has recognised a depletion and shut down as ...

Re: Depleted Battery Alert
The method for removing the door lock component involves having an individual pull and hold the handle outward while you insert the key and tilt to detach the trim. Upon unlocking the vehicle, the alarm may activate, particularly when you briefly press the 12v reset button, after which you can deact...

Re: Is there a ticking clock?
It is not very loud, so I am not surprised that he did not hear it from the rear, and I am rather certain the radio will obscure it most, if not all, of the time.

Re: Is there a ticking clock?
It is unequivocally associated with the fan. Turning off the fan entirely eliminates the issue. Nonetheless, the frequency with which I anticipate driving without air conditioning and/or the fan on is negligible. It is a little issue, nevertheless I believe it should not produce such sound. I will c...
