  • Cooling water loss G400cdi

    Good evening dear cube friends, My cube loses cooling water. I have located the leak. The hose from the circulation pump to the charging air cooler is unfortunately leaking. I wanted to order a new hose from the friendly A4635019282. Now comes the point why I turn to you the hose is unfortunately no longer delivered by Mercedes. My question is now there is alternative where I could get this hose.

  • Company searched with directional bank for 89 he G model

    Hello, a friend of mine from Scandinavia is looking for a company that is able to direct a 89 G model in front. Tree impact center. With the dimensions of the frame is probably nothing to do with a conventional straightening bench. Greeting Henning

  • Buy G-Class!? Watch out for what?

    Hello together, after Cayenne and Macan there is currently the thought to buy a G. The G-Class was always the absolute favourite at MB but it just didn’t want to be. Before Corona then after all not ordered and while Corona it was not possible as many know anymore. With the used cars the prices were also completely excessive, which is currently approaching again acceptable areas. Shortly to my search, without which I have so far driven a G in my car life, it should be In addition, I think that the G400d in our latitudes is more likely to find a buyer like a V8, because the maintenance is always more expensive. Now my question about the G purchase. What do I have to pay attention to with regard to equipment? What must a G necessarily have? Currently, the heater and the night package is on the wish list and since it should become a 400d clearly a preface lift. Some ha Is there anything to do with the BJ. or the Night Package? Is there a Bj. you should avoid, or “weaknesses” on this engine/vehicle? I would be very grateful about one or the other tip. Greetings Tobi

  • Electrics W461er G

    Servus my loved ones, I have a little problem with my 91 wolf. Every now and then the lighting flickers during the ride – not inside, radio goes on normally, but the pig throwers flicker in the front. I can’t say it with the rear lights. It usually occurs after about half an hour of driving. It then flickers for 3 seconds and then goes back to normal. You have to say that it is already very cold, but whether it can be because of it …? Maybe you have ideas. Felix

  • Purchase advice G from year 2001 – max. 30k

    Hi dear forum, my name is Christian, I am 33 years old and I come from Austria. For my family (woman and 2 girls) I want a suitable means of transportation. My driving performance is max. 5000 – 7000km a year – 95% extreme short distance (way to work is 3.5km). Terrain = 0% 😉 I want a reliable car and I am not really the screwdriver – but I don’t want to miss the luxury of the new models. Now I have quite fallen in love with the G and I am from The prices called up are a bit shocked. Usually 400CDI are offered with partly adventurous mileages of over 200,000km. At the same time 25k Euro are called for. Now I have already found out that one actually does not buy a 400 CDI DARF (control chain, transmission etc.). My question: 1.: Could I get happy with a G at all? 2.: Is a 400 CDI really a NoGo? 3.: For example – what do you think of it: http://www.willhaben.at/. ./?adId=89086599&%3B 4.: From which kilometers is a G quasi suicide? 5.: What does it look like with 270 CDI from 200,000 km? 6.: What are the most important criteria when buying? Only 1 previous owner, no trailer operation, no city car (because of gearboxes), already made with the 400 control chain, Mike Sanders or similar, service booklet complete MB – did I forget what? Price is with 30k absolutely busy evening. Thank you in advance, Ig Chris

  • AMG conversion front 230GE (W460) to W123

    Hello, We bought our first Mercedes and have no idea… It’s a 230GE BJ 1982 (W460). This G-model was eventually rebuilt. The complete front, headlights and radiator grill are from the W123 program. From AMG. We have never seen this before. Maybe someone knows about it and can tell us something about it? Many DanK! Greetings Vanessa

  • Brake line HL burst G350 BLUETEC 2012

    Hello, my W463.346 has cost me after approx. 7.5 years and approx. 125.000 km already various gray hair (gear, vibrations, strong rust on the front disc frame and much more). Yesterday I was on my way when I suddenly noticed a soft brake pedal and relatively large operating path. At first I didn’t think much about it, because I had to drive only about 500 m away to home anyway. Shortly afterwards also the brake warning light lit up and it became lower Brem At home, I was looking for the right thing to do. At the back left of the tyre, there were some damp splashes on the inside and immediately next to it, it dripped in seconds in front of the rear axle brake fluid. After lifting the HInteraxes, I was able to take a closer look at the disaster. At the top, directly above the rear axle, there is a distributor with various brake lines on brake hoses, which in turn lead to a distributor on the HA. The brake line HL was literally bristled on the ground just before the distributor (see photo). There are also some cables running right there, and it seems to me that one might have scrubbed at the brake line and thus obviously led unnoticed to the corrosion. I separated the part visible in the photo and extended it to the distributor by a self-made piece. I tried to put the suspicious (naturally quite immovable) cable aside. There is very little space there. More was unfortunately not feasible. Who also has such a car, should maybe look in the spot precautionally…

  • G300 (Puch 300?) – what do I have to pay attention to?

    Love Community After a long time I am now focused on a W463 of the first row, specifically a G300 from the early 90s. My questions: – petrol or diesel? Especially in terms of robustness and durability. The two I have to offer would be gasoline. – What do I have to pay attention to next to the rust? – Special rust spots that I should note? Door Panel/Rides, under the rubber on the front window, interior under the carpet and threshold I have on the list So far – Is it a stupid idea to buy or become those 200t+ km that are still running. I’m already budgeting an engine revision, but I hope that I can easily put another 100t km on it. – Automat or hand switched? My personal preference is on automat, as it becomes a weekend vehicle – Come all with air conditioning (to choose from is a standard G and a GSE, but the difference is not quite clear to me)? – How do I get iPhone music on it if n Is there a CD changer in it? With a W460 with cassette you could have solved it with a cassette audio connection. Does anyone have a solution here? – Anything else that I need to consider? Thank you for your help!

  • G63 Electronic

    Question to specialists: Now 2 x the SAM has been replaced it goes on as follows: – From time to time the motor warning light lights up : Errors read out :Temperature measurement or similar. This looks like again even without external deletion. – Sometimes the turn signals are without function despite operation (warning system works) – The outside temperature indicator shows -40 degrees, sometimes less times it starts again after some driving time (until then in the car gets nice warm 🙂 ) – Every now and then the temperature display has disappeared completely from “the display in the cockpit (as if there was nothing to do with it) then only three strokes Has any idea if this is somehow related?
