I'm by no means an expert but in my unknowledgeable forum opinion, I think you're right that generally re: ICE depreciating i.e. all your daily runners like corsa/fiesta/focus/yaris types of cars, the ICE versions will die off soon and be replaced by EV versions, and it will be more than just a...
Sorry I should have put more detail: Listen very carefully from 0:07, once the engine has gone totally off and quiet, it then starts the sound, like a scraping rotating sound that then comes to a stop shortly after.
Hi,
Suppose I am ok posting this here in the off topic?
Calling on all that are knowledgeable about engine issues...
This is a brand new 1.2, 3-cyl petrol, PSA Puretech engine. Just run in, 1100 miles, from new, today when I got back from work and switched it off today, it made this reeealy...
It's nothing to do with the brand, it's simply about the fact some people prefer not to have stained seats and a 3 month old mouldy piece of burger bun, in an unreachable place between your seat and center console that you will never reach or clean.
I used GTechniq AB Smart Fabric (v2, but now they have just released v3 so end of this summer I'll get a new coat of that on) and it does work, it is amazing, I did the test of letting a drop of water fall on the alcantara, and it literally looks "magic", the drop just runs off super fast as if...
Thank you all - might consider doing it :)
Do you think I need to actually touch the airbox at all (i.e. the 4 clips and the flow sensor) if I only plan to take the resonator off? Hoping to make it as simple as possible.
Apologies I am not knowledgeable on the exact terminology so bear with me:
Saw this YT video on removing this resonator/muffler from the stock intake and just plugging the hole.
This supposedly could increase the turbo spool whistle sound.
Can you let me know please what exactly is that box...
Reviving this thread - I'm not on socials so not very up to speed - wondering if there's any meet ups planned at all that anyone knows of/is thinking of
Hard to tell but if you can feel it 'gritty' with your nail and the plastic is scratched, will be very hard to fix.
If it's some kind of dirt, personally I'd start with just a wet cloth, then move to a very mild all purpose cleaner, and only then onto something like alcohol, you don't want to...
@op - yes can confirm mine is the same, little vibration idling in N. If it makes sense for what it's worth, it vibrates more "side to side" (i.e. between 2nd and 6th gear position) rather than back and forth (i.e. 3rd to 4th gear axis), but it's really not much and feels normal and somehow...
Finally took mine out for a drive today after 3 weeks, I was very excited (little I knew...)
Had a few very short nice moments taking some fast bends, but generally not great, starting to wonder whether it was worth it...
It's always something, the typical stupid seat or golf tail gating me...
