  • G63 – Active Ride Control poltert

    Hello to the round, my G has installed the AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL. Now I have an irregular bump when driving over bumps (pitholes, joints, etc.) in addition to the normal chassis noise, as if a component is hitting or playing. I do not know this noise on other Gs or on other vehicles. Does jmd. have the Active Ride chassis and can report or has jmd. an idea what it might be? Best regards!

  • my experience

    I am the proud owner of a beautiful, elegant and very high-quality G-Class, built in 2014. The vehicle had a price of about CHF 150,000 (in Switzerland) at the time of purchase and has always been driven very carefully and sparingly ever since. With around 140,000 km it was necessary to replace the engine (cost point CHF 35,000.00), but even after this exchange the car still runs excellently with currently 160,000 km. Unfortunately, however, rust is becoming increasingly noticeable, and d I would like to share my experience with the community. In numerous forums and discussions on the net it is repeatedly pointed out that rust problems in the G-Class are a well-known topic for decades. Particularly affected are often the windshield, doors, hinges and the underbody. It is disappointing that this problem still exists with such a high-quality and expensive vehicle. I would be very grateful if someone from the community who has similar experiences What solutions have been found? Was there any support from the manufacturer in the form of warranty or credit payments? I am willing, if necessary, to share photos of the affected rust spots of my car and to explain my experiences in more detail. Finally, I would like to know: Do you think that with a car as high-priced as the G-Class rust problems in this extent and in this distribution are acceptable? or is this insufficient quality? I look forward to your feedback and hope for helpful tips and experiences.

  • Hose and plug under wheelhouse cover

    Hi G friends to treat my G to a fat cure I removed the wheelhouse covers. At the front passenger side I discovered – a white plug – a black hose that goes into the interior – a blue hose (which ends in the empty one at the fog lights). Can anyone by chance tell me for what they are, or what should I do with them before I assemble everything again? THANK YOU

  • More PS ? C20ne

    What is so the most gentle solution to get more ps from the engine? Build a 16v. I almost thought! But I’m serious. Can you do something about it? The engine already has 220000 km on it but still runs top. 115 ps are just not the world.

  • Gear damage

    Good morning! My Juke Automatik, 7 years old and only 35,000 km has a gearbox damage. Of course, it is completely incomprehensible to me. Rep. costs approx. 6.500, car to the dealer sell approx. 3.000. I am really pissed off, because of course I have not even 6.500 € in the “Portokasse”. That one can make a certificate request to Nissan, I had to tell the dealer – he did not do it on his own. Therefore no info this is reasonable yet. For tips, infos, experiences all I’m kind of grateful because I like my car and I want to keep it.

  • Callback G with Distronic

    Today I received from MB the message that my G has to go to the workshop. If Distronic is activated, communication with the ESP could fail. This can lead to the fact that during the communication failure the currently requested drive torque is maintained or the G is even further accelerated. The situation can be controlled by strong brakes with inserting the gear stage N. First shocked, since I need the G now for new snowboarding, I have re-in the network. Researched and found the following articles:https://www.kfz-betrieb.vogel.de/…/ After that there should have been no incidents and the error was found by the analysis. A half-hour software update should provide a remedy.

  • CooperS-Countyman: Engine and transmission Steptronic – Type and manufacturer?

    Hello, this is my first post in the Mini Forum. I have already tortured the search function without any result. I would like to exchange my 13-year-old golf for a countryman. I like it very much. Unfortunately, the information on mini.de is very sparse in terms of technology. It should become a 178 HP all-wheeler with Steptronic, (the engine had 192 HP before the Facelift). I have the question: Who is the manufacturer of the engine? There you read in the net everything possible, from Peu geot to China. I’d like to know if it comes from BMW itself. Wouldn’t it be nice. Does it have a double clutch gearbox or a converter? From ZF? I’ve already found that the Mini front drive has and only if necessary the rear wheels are “switched to it”. If I may, please ask the last question for now: Does the Countryman – Facelift from 2020 have a particle filter or does the Mini EURO 6D create without? THANK YOU for your answers. On mini.de I have the not found anything at all. LG
