Re: At just over 5,000 miles, the "Service Engine Soon" message and wrench icon were visible.

Your stated mileage immediately made me think of "routine oil and filter change" every 5,000 miles. You went on to say that she had some maintenance done a few months back. Accordingly, it may be associated with a recent recall effort (MSP66). I happened to have my 10,000-mile oil and filt...

Re: Restoring an E350e ICE

If your neighbourhood MB indie is hesitant to fix a hybrid's engine, I'd be shocked. Preparation for the new technology has been a constant theme in all of our conversations. (Remember that the first three years are mostly focused on MB as the chief dealer.)

Re: P300e RR Evoque PHEV 2023

Regarding your model, I am unaware. Under "Eco Data" on the app screen, my 24 model provides everything you're looking for. After 9999 kilometres, the trips reset, which I didn't know. Although I had intended to store all fresh data under Trip B and all daily data under Trip A, I discovere...

Re: A question for all plug-in hybrid electric vehicle owners: what happens when you switch to EV mode?

Turning off EV priority will prevent power loss just before it switches to ICE, which is a usual occurrence when temperatures are too low.

Re: Which tires for the 530D XDrive?

Davanti are satisfactory. I operated them on two of my F10 530d vehicles; they were erratic for the initial few miles, but subsequently performed excellently.

Re: Power Probe 3 PPKIT03S Master Kit Featuring the ECT3000 Short Circuit Locator

I am following up to confirm whether the high-end Autel models indeed have built-in scopes. Perhaps it is my fault, but I am merely contemplating.
