I put down a deposit at the auto show mostly for the excitement, since I wouldn't actually buy a 4-cylinder. But today my friend at the port said no one's handling the 3C for the Tahoe... Currently, only the old model of the big Tahoe is available, and it's unlikely we'll see the 8-cylinder or diesel Tahoe at the port this year. That's awkward.

I own a 2014 SsangYong Korando, 2WD high trim, 2.0 gasoline. Recently, the check engine light occasionally turns on with the error code indicating a misfire in cylinder 1. Sometimes it turns off by itself. I've swapped spark plugs between cylinder 1 and 2, ignition coils between cylinder 1 and 3, and even swapped the injectors. I planned to use elimination to check if it's the injector issue, but after each swap, the misfire code for cylinder 1 still comes back eventually! The engine idles with slight vibrations, but I don't feel any power loss on the highway—it easily goes over 160 km/h. Later, I measured the cylinder pressure: cylinder 1 is at 8 kg, while the others are over 10 kg. After researching online, I suspect it's an exhaust valve issue. Now I'm really torn. Should I just let it be, or go for a major repair? I read online that some people can fix it by opening the cylinder head without removing the engine. But the local big auto shop is no more, and the private mechanic suggests removing the engine, which I really don't want to do—worried it won't fit back as perfectly as the original. It's stressful because I bought this as a first car for my father, who has loved cars all his life, and now this happens. I've been to various places without a clear diagnosis. Some say it's slight cylinder wear, some say valve leakage, and others mention cylinder head design flaws. Any advice from fellow Korando owners on how to solve similar issues would be greatly appreciated!

Today I was driving my MG One and stopped at a red light. I put the car in park, and when the light turned green, I shifted to drive. Suddenly, the car system reported that the battery was dead and there was an engine fault code. The car wouldn't move even when I pressed the gas. After turning off the engine and restarting the car, it was able to move again, and the fault code disappeared. I went to a friend's repair shop to check, but they didn't find any issues. Since I was at the traffic light and the car behind kept honking, I didn't have time to take a picture. I'm a bit regretful about that. When I go to the 4S shop, I'm not sure how to explain it.
