I had that problem once when I tried a "drag and drop".

Salut l'ami,
Je m'intéresse au sujet...avec beaucoup d'avis sur internet (tout...et son contraire)
Difficile d'avoir un avis "fiable"
Peut-être ici aurons-nous des éléments intéressants

My xk is on bio-ethanol I buy it like that, a reprogramming has been done on it, but on the car book it says that you should not run on bio-ethanol why?

Xk646, Ethanol-rich gasoline has harmful effects on certain components of the fuel system. Here is an excerpt from a 2016 article in the Globe and Mail that summarizes the issues:



Since your car was set up for bio-ethanol it may be that the components of your fuel system have been replaced by materials that are more resistant to degradation caused by the above issues.

When I had a motorcycle, I avoided gasoline that had more than 10% ethanol. In the US, it is hard to find ethanol-free gasoline, but lately there has been more 15% ethanol gas out there. I keep away from 15% for any vehicle I have.
