Reifendirekt is doing the same thing in Europe, with free delivery. Very reasonable prices as well.

1.6 gasoline only. If OP has a 1.6 diesel then no.

Oh yeah, check the brake pedal switch.

And Sienna, Tacoma and FJ Cruiser never came here ? BTW: HiAce rear axle is very popular among drag racers over here as it's extremely durable.

Now that I know that LPG is not as cost effective as the ideal case they are selling it on, the only good side left is that it's cleaner and it's a 100% byproduct of gasoline production, not a separate effort and pollutant on its own. Today's diesel engines with paper thin cylinder walls (to fit in the absurd emission standards made up in offices by people never even seen an engine up close) will never last as long as these semi-frequent reports of some eighties Volvos hitting million miles on original engines.

We have free healthcare and it's awesome. There's a lot of criticism that the waiting line is long and doctors are having paid side practices which takes their focus off their "real job". Yes, I have used paid medicare more than once when I had needed it urgently. For most cases the free version is good enough. For specific cancer treatments that is not covered free you need to remortgage your house or worse, but there's a well functioning support foundation that organizes fundraisers (in newspapers and TV) for expensive cancer treatments and if you seem like a nice person people will pile up the money in a few days. It's a feelgood thing, to see an article published that someone is now 100% cancer free and will have a long and beautiful life ahead thanks to the donations. Especially in case of treated children.

That's some deep freezing application.

Loose fit is intentional. You should be able to rotate it comfortably.

Rostra cruise control - anyone added one to a 2014+?

In real life (my personal, anecdotal evidence) none of them accelerate even when you really want to -

As a long time multiple Toyota owner I followed the process close-up. It was a party for lawyers, not so much for engineers. NASA computer scientists were commissioned to analyze Toyota ECU software. They went through 20M lines of code and simulated every possible condition the car could get into and concluded that there was zero chance (in statistical terms, no chance at all, ever, impossible scenario) of unattended acceleration without the driver’s primary input. There was a case with a Tundra where a third party floor mat jammed the accelerator and this was also thrown at the case. The only place apart from the original location (US) the Prius acceleration happened was one case in Norway. As it happened nowhere else this was considered to be part of the collective psychosis (for the lesser part) and opportunistic fraud (for the most part) most of the acceleration cases were. -
Oh snap. But the aircon in this van is crap anyway. The cabin in my Toyota wagon gets ice cold in one minute. In the Connect - never.

Audi sedans are rare over here. Most new ones are wagons.

I have a 12V socket in my LWB Connect. It’s on top of the right side rear interior panel. Check it out, perhaps there’s a loom already there.

It’s because the Gen1 was based on Focus, which was way too weak for a heavier van. The new one is based on S-Max, which is a mid-size minivan and suits it much better.

Anyone able to tell me what these are for?

I have a couple of these collapsible boxes always in the car: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Taizhou-Plastic-Foldable-Box-Crate-Container_60210407644.html -
How’s the cam belt? (if equipped)

Volvo vheels are usually close enough match (+/-10 mm offset). Make sure the center bore matches and if bigger, get an adjustment ring. Can’t go smaller but that’s probably not the case. Then pick the nuts according to the wheel (conical or flat). The ones with a washer are better for the wheel.

Traction control and tire pressure warning is probably caused by a bad ABS sensor.
