Category: Mercedes G-Class Forum

Hello, I’m new to the group and probably this topic has already been discussed, but unfortunately I didn’t find anything about it. I would like to have the 450d registered with the original AMG cross spoke rims in 22 inches, there is a part report or other help for this. Mercedes apparently does not want the wheel/tire combination to be driven on the ‘smaller’ models, although technically on the axles is all the same. I have the AMG package with the wider n Radhäuser already ex works. Thanks in advance for a message, or the link to a helpful chat. Greetings Frank

Dear car community, I am looking for a useful organizer for my G-Class (built in 2024) for the trunk. Unfortunately, despite a long search, I did not find anything. There are useful organizers for older series, but not for the series from 2024 (W465), which is also because the proportions of the trunk in the 2024 model have changed considerably. I would be very happy about ideas 🙂

Hello together, let’s ask you a question, in which situations do you use your lock and/or the reduction? Can you use the lock only in the “Lowe Range” operation? Thank you for your answers, I’m curious. Greetings.

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!

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.

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

So the new g class will lose its edges but it will be equipped with hightech (air suspension crashboxes etc) new motors (400 cdi, 299 ps ,650 nw) ,more length (5100 mm) more wide (1900) and more charge (800 kg).How do you like this??

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.

Hello together. I just browsed through the roof beams threads for the G in the forum – which relate largely to the W463. In this case the beams were attached to the roof ring ? at the current W463a and W465 there are extra recording points on the roof itself. Maybe you can help me with various questions: 1. Wind noises: – are acceptable but still quite strong – have found here a “windshield at LeTech” with illuminationhttps://lennartz-techni k.de/…/https://lennartz-technik.de/…/ – has someone here experience whether this is worth it with regard to wind noises ? – does someone know if there is this even without lighting (which I don’t need) and drives the price certainly also to the height 2. roof load – in the manual is what with 150kg dynamic (when driving) – was the in the old W463 higher ? – if I see so what was packed there so everything on the roof – would I say there come inclusive roof carriers gladly times 200-300 kg together ? – with 150kg like the wearer himself (about 55kg) you can still put on just under 100kg what a roof tent almost eats up …. – how is this handled in practice among the experienced here ?

Hello, I am interested in a Mercedes G Wolf. Can you give me some information about the different engines? But the 72hp engine is too small for me, I want to get wood in the forest and do forest work in general, but also drive normally on the road. How many locks does the wolf have and which ones? How is it with the switch-on all-wheel? Can I use this also on normal road, like with the VW Iltis? Can I switch it on while driving? Can I use this en G-cars also pull heavy trailers, because of the gearbox? How much is the official trailer load? Would not really be happy about some answers!! Best regards Jochen Sturm
