The technician verified the customer's concern and confirmed that the repairs performed were accurate. During the testing process, they identified multiple fault codes stored in the DME and successfully deleted most of them. However, fault code 0046F9 remains, indicating a faulty SCR tank temperature sensor. To clear this code from the DME, the SCR tank will need to be replaced. At this point, the technician recommends monitoring the vehicle until the necessary repairs can be completed for further assessment. The client has decided not to proceed with any additional repairs at this time. It is advised that the client continues to monitor the vehicle for any changes.

The technician confirmed the customer's concern regarding the vehicle leaking oil. Upon inspection, the technician found that the oil filter cap was improperly installed. The technician recommended performing an oil service, which includes replacing the oil filter with an OEM filter and refilling the vehicle with the correct oil. Additionally, the technician noticed that the drain plug was also incorrectly installed, contributing to the oil leak. The technician successfully rethreaded the drain plug back into the oil pan and confirmed that there were no further leaks from it. The new oil filter was installed with a proper O-ring, and no leaks were detected from the oil filter cap. Following these repairs, the technician conducted a road test, and the vehicle appeared to be functioning correctly. However, the technician noted that the vehicle should be taken to a detail shop to clean up the oil spilled in the engine compartment. There is a lingering oil smell from the exhaust manifold due to the residual oil, so the technician recommends cleaning the area and checking for any additional leaks. Furthermore, given the vehicle's history and mileage, it may be due for other services as well.

The technician confirmed the customer's concern regarding water leakage from the passenger side. Upon conducting diagnostics, it was found that the sunroof drains were clogged. The technician successfully ran a wire to unclog the drains and tested them by pouring water down the rails, ensuring proper drainage. Additionally, the technician observed that the front cowl was damaged and recommended its removal and replacement. During this process, it was noted that the windshield was missing a weatherstrip, which could be causing water to leak into the vehicle. Both parts were replaced successfully, and at this time, no water leaks are observed. The technician advises the client to monitor the situation and return for further diagnostics if any water leaks reappear.
