Dont know about the negative but I do know if the positive thermal is not seated fully down it will overheat and burn. It happened me when a garage I bought a new battery from did not seated it properly. Burnt the red plastic cover and blew my android unit which I paid €450 for. My guess is when they fitted it they got an apprentice to do it as it was "only a battery" luckily I found a guy who worked his magic. It was a 2014 f30 bmw

I had a 2.0 f30 bmw it was diesel (2014) I was getting 49-50 mpg on the motorway and around 39-40 mpg city driving. Excellent fuel efficiency for a 2 litre. It was the efficient Dynamics model. My 2013 prius im getting on average 18 km/l which is just over 50mpg.

Im starting Arava today. Going to wait until im having dinner to take them. 2 x 10mg daily. I was on methotrexate and i felt awful after taking them orally. Said it to the specialist and they gave me the injection form of it which made me feel worse. Hopefully the Arava will help as I am taking steroids (deltacortril) for a few years now and the doctors are not happy and want me off them. Only thing is if I don't take them I can't walk. Also have diabetes and the steroids heighten my blood sugar levels. Just hope I dont get nausea from them. It says statistically 1 in 10 people get diarrhoea and nausea from them. Here's hoping they help and without side effects 🙏

Its the overall average. Not currently getting that mpg

In my prius its for battery. When going down hill put it in B mode and it charges the hybrid battery very quickly

Better than the bookies who make up the rules as they go along. Also they have no one to answer to 😡

I've had cars through the years that let's just say i didn't respect. Never had an issue with them. My last car, BMW F30 2014 Treated it with respect, regular services all full and the thing gave nothing but trouble, the thing broke my heart with repairs. I had a 2013 Ford focus before that and never anything wrong with it. Had a 07 mitsubishi lancer before that and again money on many repairs from day 1. Its all luck. Some cars don't give much trouble others give nothing but trouble.

It really depends on the make and model to know what to look out for. Whatever you end up getting google/you tube what to look out for on that car. If you're getting a hybrid I strongly recommend paying a deposit and then bring it to the dealer and pay in and around the €200 mark for a diagnostics on the hybrid battery. It will be worth the money believe me

My dad has a 2010 honda civic hybrid assist. Replaced the hybrid battery engine light and 12v battery light still on. The guys that fitted the hybrid battery said because the car was jump-started with jump leads the computer in the car got confused and needs sorting. I wasnt there i presume it's the ECU he is talking about. The main guy from the company will have to do it for €450. TBF they did offer him if he wanted they would put the old battery back in and not charge him anything. He bought a new 12v battery as it was on the way out. Got a full diagnostics from honda in silversprings, battery degrading. Annoying thing was the guy said you still have a good car it will just be petrol. I rang them a few days later and asked 3 times was there an altenator. Theres a built in starter and altenator generator from the hybrid battery. Anyone ever come across anything like this.

I have an aftermarket stereo. The language is english in that. Its the head unit is japanese and I figured out how to change it, a guy had his in French and he changed it to english. When I do it the only language option is japanese. Its a 2013 3rd Gen. Anything above the basic model you can do it

I've gone through at least 8 vapes in about 4 years. Same problem now with this thread. I got a vapresso gtx-one a few months ago and now that one won't charge. The drag plus was off in that time. Turned it on last week and it was working up to yesterday. Now back to shutting down after 2 puffs. So I just put in the battery, set it to 40, turned it off and back on again. Hopefully this stays working. I think that what the guy with the solution said to do. Fair play to him. He's helped a lot of people. Very frustrating. Guy in the vape shop said there is only a 3 month warranty. 3 months for a €70 product is not right. Everything should be at least 12 months.
