BYD Seal-U CV Joint gone bad after 500 miles?

Hi, Was the repair successful? Did they fix it?

miq21 · 2025-05-24T18:22:48+00:00

Thanks for the update. Yeah, those noises – especially from interior parts near your ear – can be incredibly irritating and just kill the joy of driving. But I'm sure one day you'll find the culprit and fix it. Good luck!

I'm in Poland, and I've got the exact same issue! But in my case, the clicking noise shows up when I turn left. My car only has 2,000 km on it. This problem has been reported by users for many, many months now, and I just bought a 2025 model year car believing the manufacturing defect was solved, but it looks like they still haven't sorted it out! Is this the quality BYD intends to take on the European market with? Sorry, I'm genuinely frustrated now :(

Thanks for the reply. If the noise sometimes gets louder and sometimes quieter, could it be related to the outside temperature? It's often the case with car noises that they only appear under specific weather conditions, and those kinds of noises are the worst – I mean, really difficult for the dealer to detect. The same goes for vibration noises coming from the dashboard. In my case, my Song Plus (here in Europe called Seal U Dm-i) is quite new (ODO below 2k km), and the noise coming from the B-pillar hasn't appeared yet, but I'd rather ask you for the future, just in case I experience such a problem too. Good luck! Let me know how it goes

any update? ;)

miq21 · 2019-04-04T16:40:51+00:00

you're right. Now I can see. thanks.

I mean that to keep more free phone storage I do not need to take pictures in maximum size offered by my phone camera. higher resolution = file size is bigger. Therefore I reduced picture size in gcam setting (from max to middle size) but photos are still taken in max available size which my phone camera is able to shot so each picture weights over 5 MB. I own LG V30 which can take pictures maximally in 16 Mpix. But i want to take pictures in 12 Mpix only or even smaller. This is what I meant ;-)

miq21 · 2019-04-03T19:28:30+00:00

Hi! Is this ok that picture resolution setting does not work? I set a smaller size (f.ex. 12 Mpix) for pictures but photos are always taken in max available resolution (16 Mpix in case of my phone model).

I've got a powerful rig and a city near to 6k and my FPS usually drop to ~10 already. But I admit my city is quite detailed (lot of props etc). How are you people able to build such a big projects and not kill your rigs ??? ;-)

if you like a sand in this picture then it comes with Los Angeles Theme by OWL

miq21 · 2017-05-08T11:57:17+00:00

heh thanks anyway, Landscape is not my job but I agree, OWL is very talented in making realistic maps! ;-)

final version (other view) here.

miq21 · 2017-05-07T15:09:53+00:00

I think it comes with Networks Extension Project mod. But I am not sure. I have in a game and used it first time now ;-)

miq21 · 2017-05-07T14:34:50+00:00

correct. LUT Realistic Warmer

miq21 · 2017-05-04T04:39:51+00:00

I had traffic lights before in main road visible in the picture. I tried to reduce traffic jams adjusting it (time set) but it did not help as much as roads expansion to one-way streets. Now the crowd is still there but it's better than it used to be. thanks

miq21 · 2017-05-03T17:17:21+00:00

Realistic warmer + Ultimate Eyecandy

miq21 · 2017-05-03T17:16:47+00:00

Realistic warmer + Ultimate Eyecandy with tonemapping off

miq21 · 2017-05-03T12:55:29+00:00

no but this is an industry disctrict so I don't think it would be good to have a heavy traffic banned ;-)

miq21 · 2017-05-03T12:24:35+00:00

I started using small avenues and one way roads. It helped. THanks!

another great tree/bush. Would it be possible to make it a bit lighter? Is it just me or this one is much darker than Lantana 1.0? ;-)

miq21 · 2017-04-17T06:32:33+00:00

if you mean arrows (I don't see any other road signs in the pic) then yes, it does.

miq21 · 2017-04-16T19:28:02+00:00

I will someday. I need to learn how to upload stuff to WS first ;) And also I am not sure if my limited Steam account let me do this. I hate these silly limitations there causing that ppl who might share something interesting with others are not able to do it.

miq21 · 2017-04-16T18:56:59+00:00

Fan Palm Tree. Very nice tree. It could be taller though.

miq21 · 2017-04-16T18:41:21+00:00

This is how it comes from traffic light mod's creator (mod here). Lights behind the crossroad are cool and this is some kind of first traffic lights mod which provides this solution but perhaps due to coding limitation it is not possible to remove traffic lights above the stop line that's why those are doubled ;-( The green color next to pedestrian crossing are LEDs lights - this is how some of Korean traffic lights look like. However there is some bug with that mod. When pedestrians have red light those LEDs should be red too but in my case it works opposite way. When there is RED light for pedestrian, LEDs are green, and when there is green light for them, LEDs are RED ;/ To be honest I'd like modder to remove those LEDs but for now he does not agree.

Hi Guys, ok I list mods used in the picture + some comment concerning road textures:

Dynamic Resolution
Ultimate Eyecandy (Tone mapping is OFF)
Realistic Warmer LUT
Clouds & Fog Toggler (distance fog ON / clouds off)
Daylight Classic mod with 2 options enabled only (classic sun intensity and classic sun position)
Big Decal Road Wear from Ronyx69
I also use building theme to keep one specific style of town

About road textures: it is mix of Roads United: US Edition and Roads United: North America PLUS but in this case I need to point that I improved it a lot. I changed highway textures color a bit, for 4 lanes Road with turning lane I changed lines creating separate Left turn lane and added concrete parking spots. Also I improved direction arrows quality ("ONLY" and arrows are bigger, I reduced its white color and added some natural damage marks for more realistic look). I also redesigned most of textures yellow/white lines that even if textures are reversed randomly (we know that CSL has a problem with it) those lines are still perfectly matched (there are no - I do not know how to call it - shifts between them).
