Re: Disc replacement in the back

Sure thing. I believe the 46mm is what you're looking for. We use a big one for the back and a tiny one up front; the smaller one is for the 4Matic front shaft.
In this case, a big adjustable wrench (shifter) might be useful. Take a look at the torque setting; I believe it's 40Nm. Vibration problems ...

which manufacturers of brake rotors are dependable for a 2012 XC70?

My last set of brake rotors corroded within weeks of purchase; I don't know if that's a good or negative indicator, but I'm looking for a replacement and was wondering which manufacturers are most reliable.

Re: The oil level

Remember that heated oil expands. I get that the manufacturer recommends checking the temperature at room temperature first thing in the morning, but even after 30 minutes, it's warmer than it would be after sitting all night, so it will always read somewhat higher.

Re: The Benefits and Drawbacks of Soft Top Cleaning

When left in the sun for a time, curls will become more straight. First, I use a vacuum to pick up leaves and other debris. Then, I use a sticky lint roller to get rid of any leftover lint. After that, I wash the car and its upholstery. You may get a soft top package from Chemical Guys that includes ...

Re: Issue with mmi3g high-optic fiber cables

Your question is unclear to me. Is this referring to the 8T0919604B 6.5-inch screen in the instrument cluster, or to a different model with a greater resolution in the High/Plus trim levels? In my experience, a malfunctioning screen should not cause the system to shut down in the manner you describe ...

Re: Issue with mmi3g high-optic fiber cables

Sure, your MMI3G is a Basic (BNav) model. It's not often that you see face-lift models with this module, although I did see one in late 2016. Even if the BNav main unit's HDD were to fail, this wouldn't be an issue because it doesn't have any mass storage. Isolating the system from the MOST fiber ...

Re: Issue with mmi3g high-optic fiber cables

Taking the device off of the panel and swapping out the MOST fiber connector with the male MOST fiber loop by-pass connector is the next step. In doing so, the primary unit is separated from the vehicle's MOST fiber loop. In the event that this problem continues (i.e., the system turns off after 10 ...

Re: Issue with mmi3g high-optic fiber cables

It appears that one of the MOST bus modules is malfunctioning based on the behavior. First, use a female MOST loop connection to bypass the module(s) located below the left trim panel in the rear cargo area. The male connector is already attached to the module. The radio and amplifier modules might ...

Re: Anyone heard or dealt with Allarris Express? Looking for honest feedback

I nearly bought a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee from a seller that wanted to use Allarris Express around Christmas but backed out simply because I wasn’t comfortable buying unseen
To be fair, the person I spoke with was polite and transparent. No aggressive sales tactics no pressure
