  • Yamaha Mt03 swing still in order?

    Hello I have a question and that’s what I laid down my MT03 (2016) almost a month ago unintentionally and the exhaust has pressed into the swing. I’m not sure now if I should change the swinger because it is actually only a small delle.. However, I want to be more sure with the swinger, it would be a saving of 500€ from that would pay off already. I hope I come here to a few opinions as I really do The workshop in which I parked my Yamaha after the accident already said that it should be changed but to this workshop I have no real trust. Many thanks in advance best greeting Daniel

  • Snow balance

    After the first winter days incl. new snow and icy roads, I have to praise the extremely ingenious driving characteristics of the R (with 4 Matic). Neither my predecessors cars (Q7 and Touareg) could keep up, let alone the A-Class (front drive) as a service vehicle. I never had a bad feeling with woman and baby to come through the so-called winter chaos. For me alone this is reason enough to always decide for an R-Class. By the way: my winter tyres are the Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D (235er). Must be said!

  • What radio do you want?

    Hello from Austria! my original radio (Mercedes Spezial) in the 500SL (R129) unfortunately slowly gives up the spirit. Now I am looking for a suitable replacement. I would actually have a Becker Grand Prix 7990 in mind, that should fit from the design to the SL. Can someone recommend something to me? Or does someone have experience with the Becker Radio, or does anyone know if the original installed CD changer fits the new Becker Radio, the original Mercedes Radio is as far as I know also a Becker? Greetings Di hem

  • R 129 roof is not working

    Hello together, I’m new here and I’ve fulfilled a dream by buying an SL 500 Bj. 8/92. The vehicle was standing for some time in a shed and was not moved. I had customer service and so on done and intensively occupied myself with the roof, which does not work automatically. Here is the error description: ECU clicks, windows go down when pressing the top switch, then it doesn’t go any further, when withdrawing the switch go the When driving it does thing …., if you clamp something into the switch, the rear part of the cover is pulled down and after a few seconds the red lamp goes off at the switch (if it is stuck to the front). In this condition the rollover bar does not work when you press the switch. I opened the roof manually today, then drove off and again thing…, then I pulled the cover switch back (open) it click on the button and the lamp on the switch was off. Even when driving the thing was gone :-), the rollover bar now also worked by means of a switch. If I have now moved the top switch in closing position the lid opened and further nothing happened, then in opening position and the lid was closed again. Dear community of the SL drivers, can you help me????????? I am grateful for every advice, of course I have the topic with the deep reset of the Control unit already tested, but unfortunately did not work. Who knows how to flash out the fault memory, it is a 16 pole diagnostic plug installed?? Greetings and thank you

  • W202 / Tires / General questions

    Servus people, This winter is my first winter with a rideable kit and I have some questions that I could not answer by struggling googling either. I recently had a small collision with the curb –> winter tires and steel rims to throw away. I now need a new rim with winter tires. Let’s get to the point: I have currently mounted the following on the rest of the wheels (have this information from the rear tyre right): steel rims 15 inches + Hankook 195/65/ R15 91V M+S Luckily had reserve wheel in the trunk (steel rim with winter tires) but the gentleman said of the breakdown help, I can not leave it mounted since the tire is for the left side) Now to the questions: How do I distinguish a left from a right tire? Can I mix different manufacturers on the front axle? Can I use tyres with different speed indices on the front axle. Opinions: –> According to the workshop, a new tire costs + rim* Mounting 150€ On the internet someone sells a steel rim + winter tire for 3O€ (CONTINENTAL WINTERREIFEN 195/65/R15/91T) Unfortunately, there is nothing more detailed in the description (except that it was a never used replacement in the trunk) What would you do? I am grateful for all the answers!

  • Do I need a new tyre dealer?

    Hello all, I had to replace a rim with tyres (front right) at the end of the last winter season due to accident, therefore on the complete front axle new tyres and a rim new. The other axle still had a good 6 mm, so I didn’t touch them. Last week I had my winter tires put on again and since then I have noticeably louder driving noises (yes, I know the winter tires are usually louder, but never so strong). Especially if i I also had the feeling that they didn’t run completely round and therefore I went to the dealer again and wanted to have them balanced out again. He then meant that it wouldn’t be necessary, because that probably comes from the fact that the “older” tyres have now brought forward and the “newer” ones have put on the rear axle because “behind the better tyres”. I always thought it would be better to have the newer ones in front? (PS. Have Quattro Drive) He then said that this would happen over time… Does his statement fit or should I have the axles exchanged again and then look for another dealer? Thank you & Greeting Christian

  • How to detect whether already 48V-Mildhybrid or still “old” model

    Hello, I ordered my ProCeed with the 136hp diesel engine in January 2020, as my previous leasing contract expires in September. If someone now asks themselves “Why so early?” I have already experienced bad surprises with the delivery times at other manufacturers. Looking back it was probably also right this time because of the Corona chaos. The vehicle was produced in June 2020 and is already standing at my dealer. Now the diesel engineization was changed at the end of April. The 48V-Mildhybrid-Technik. Now the interesting question arises for me, whether my car has already been produced as a Mildhybrid or not. How do I then recognize when I take over the vehicle, whether it is a Mildhybrid or not? Is there a hint in the papers or somewhere a “48V” print in the vehicle (please don’t laugh)? Ohso, just for a moment to clarify: I am aware that I have no claim to the Mildhybrid-Version. eug ordered, this variant did not exist yet, especially since the vehicles have become even more expensive by the Mildhybrid technology. Is just an interesting question, what happens when the technology changes after ordering but before production. Best regards
