Re: Rear of 2011 L322

Whenever summer rolls around, I notice an odour that seems to be mould. Although a thorough cleaning did remove most of the coffee and soda that had spilt on the carpets, some remained. The following year, I used an ozone machine as a follow-up, and the odour it produced was almost as bad as the mou...

Re: Unrecognised Key Fob

Much obliged; I shall test the efficacy of store-bought brand-name batteries. This is an entirely new issue; I have never wanted to change my habit of keeping the key fob in my front pocket. It makes a difference when you take it out, but I had no issues throughout the first several years of ownersh...

Unrecognised Key Fob

The key fobs for my 2017 Model S resemble miniature model automobiles. Even though I'm aware that I should try using a different fob, I haven't reprogrammed it because I use the same one all the time. On a frequent basis, my keyless entry system fails to detect my fob: I approach the car, but the ha...

Re: From a BMW expert's perspective, what do you all believe the price should be?

I see, it's scammy 😂. The 2017 BMW 116d with the 1.5 litre B37 engine is the vehicle in question.

From a BMW expert's perspective, what do you all believe the price should be?

Thermostat and water pump are leaking coolant.
A worn-out crank damper
When the belt tensioner is

Shock gaiters' front ends separate
Headlight control arms showing signs of wear

My ride has a f20 2017 116D B37 motor.
I was informed that it may be worth more than the car I bought for £6,000.

Re: Pressions des pneus e300 e 2026

The recommended inflation pressures for the tyre sizes for that particular automobile are displayed on the filling flap. If you want a more comfortable ride at the expense of increased gasoline consumption, the Owner's Manual used to suggest lowering the recommended pressure by 2-3 psi. I don't know...

Re: Pipercross air filter for 2.2 ICTDI

Impressive I was uncertain whether it may result in future developments, but as you mentioned, it is still in the filtering process, so all is well. Thank you for your response. 👍

Re: Pipercross air filter for 2.2 ICTDI

Understood, it will not have any long-term effects. Have you ever operated it? I find the droning sound quite appealing; it is not the unpleasant type of droning one could imagine, however I struggle to articulate my thoughts clearly.
Thank you.

Pipercross air filter for 2.2 ICTDI

Has anyone utilised the Pipercross air filter? I have recently installed one on my 2010 2.2 Civic and am enquiring whether the sound it produces is typical; it emits a distinctive, droning sporty noise that I find appealing.
