  • Good Mercedes workshop with G-experience in Switzerland

    Hello together I wanted to drive the good community, whether you know a good MB workshop with one or other G-specialists in their ranks in Switzerland. After having put my G rather a wrong start so far (gear was defective at delivery, MB first tried it with a software update, then with the exchange of the control unit and finally with the exchange of the whole transmission, with its installation again a mistake was made (my opinion), o that I had a recurring crack in the left front suspension, which is why workshop stay No. 3 was due within the first three weeks …) . What I would like now would be a MB workshop in Switzerland, which does not play youth research with a CHF 150,000 car, but with the forum members have had positive experiences with their G. I would be very grateful for hints and tips. Greetings Jens PS: the free garage of Peter Ritzmann I know, l I am bound to Mercedes-Benz workshops for the time of the guarantee.

  • G400 CDI- suddenly went out and stopped starting.

    Hello together, now I also have a problem with the G. The following has happened: I drove quite normal and all of a sudden the car went from now on without warning – no stutter, nothing. The tank had gone before about 10km on reserve, but the G has 20ltr reserve- so it can not lie there, and also had no problems with it so far – that is enough mathematically for about 150km. Then I thought that the tanker does not properly indicate, 20ltr diesel reinges chüttet, but nothing happens- nurser turns, but the motor doesn’t start. Will have it picked up today from MB, what can it be like? Greetings

  • Rim replacement

    Hello, my name is Rüdiger, I’m new here and I’ve had a w463 (G500) from 2010 with Japanese past for 2 weeks. Only the rims I would like to replace. Currently I drive 7.5 x 18H2 ET63 Yesterday I wanted to make a rim replacement on 20 inch AMG rims. We found that the hole circles do not match (according to dealers because of import vehicle). Lock travel are 5×130 compared to 5×112. (other wheel scar) Can you confirm this so and which possibilities have ic h for retrofitting? LG Rüdiger

  • Insurance G400d

    Hello together, yesterday with my insurance spoken what would cost a G400d at 10tkm of driving performance per year. At VK 1000€ SB and TK without, it would be 170€/year. Did I find a lot for the car. Is that so normal? Or do I have to look for a better insurance? Thank you.

  • G270 CDI …. Problems in stationary gas

    Hello all, my G270 CDI, 42000 km Bj 2004 has been having problems with the stand gas since the latest. To the info… a year ago a new Uylinder head was mounted and recently a new gearbox with converter. When I drive towards a crossing and brake to a standstill it suddenly ran out of me twice. The stand gas is often no longer like a clockwork, but is always a little sagging. It is not always, however, increasing. Has someone ever had comparable problems? It starts great and when driving you don’t notice anything. Only in the stand. I would be very happy if someone could help me. Best regards Hans

  • unclear problem

    Hello Together, I have the following problem: My G55 from 2001 no longer reacts. ZV does not open. If I open it by hand, I cannot start it. Battery is sufficiently charged according to the tester. If I connect a charger, it does not start with the charging process. I also renewed batteries in the key. Does anyone have an idea what this might be about? Lg El

  • Roof sky dissolves / G270

    Hello together Maybe you have a tip for me on how to fix the light grey roof sky to my G270 from 2002 without completely expanding it? Meanwhile, it is already hanging down in various places. Above all, I don’t want to do experiments with glues, which then leave residue on the front. Have any of you mastered this challenge? Thank you very much for your help, Michael

    Hello, We are planning a Scandinavian tour this year (if permitted) with our G-Class (built in 2020) with roof tent. We would like to take our 2 E-Bike with us (total weight 44 KG). Who already has experience with the current series with bicycle carriers or can recommend a bicycle carrier? I couldn’t get so smart from older posts. Thank you in advance! CHausOL
