Hello together, In my 300 GE (1990) all brake lines should also be replaced. I bought KuNiFer cables. Brake line Ø 4.75 mm copper / nickel Kunifer 1m 2m 3m 5m or 10m Selection: (5 meters) https://www.amazon.de/dp/B00S52G9O6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_zHtozbPJSNBRW Do you have any experience or advice about this completely?(Safety critical?) Unfortunately, I could not get any information at the national inspection office in Austria. However, eferant is not familiar with the legislation in Austria either. In case of a full braking I want 100% safety!

Good day ladies and gentlemen Since I have been waving back and forth for weeks, sometimes having almost sleepless nights, but no one in the circle of acquaintances who could help me, I have registered here in the forum to ask you for help, tips and suggestions. I would love to buy a G-Class. I have probably read everything you have written about this topic so far: G 350d or g 500? I have these 2 vehicles to choose from. I have already tried the 350d. My question: If you consider everything (year, kilometers, equipment, model), which would make more sense? I will definitely also go into action, but probably not so often (5 – 10%). I will not drive more than 15k/year and I will also use the vehicle as a hunting vehicle, but also for other routes. Here are the 2:https://www.autoscout24.ch/…/…suv–gelaendewagen-2016-occasion?…https://www.autoscout24.ch /…/…suv–gelaendewagen-2018-occasion?… Thank you very much! Andreas

Hello to the round! After I have been angry again today about the severe intervention of the active track hold assistant, I am looking for a way to program it away. I could imagine that it is permanently off and is activated only at the touch of a button. My MB workshop has already refused, one does not come to the level of the Star Diagnosis. Does anyone know advice? Please no instructions regarding ABE or the like… Thank you! Greetings

For my new G500 AMG Line (463A) I have ordered all weather tyres. But now the Moutain and snowflakes symbol is missing. Since DOT after 1.1.2018 I can not drive with these tires in snow. The fine catalog provides for a point and between 75 and 300 Euro penalty in case of offense. The work twitches the shoulders and knows to the dealer as a contractual partner. He says… true all weather there is currently not in the tire size 275/50 R20 xl. You know more and I would your This is a very important issue for the Commission.

Hello together! It may be that I get a G as a second car during the summer. This depends on various factors and is at the moment far from safe – but I would like to inform myself now, so that I can then also strike on a short time on a favorable occasion. Since I want to move financially rather at the lower (st) edge – it should be as said only a “second car toy ” – remain purely practically already only M odelle roughly speaking from 20 years and older left. The age would not be a problem for me, basically also high mileage and “beauty mistakes” not, however, the vehicle should be already good from the “basic substance” already. Despite second car factor I have no desire to tie a completely incalculable (and expensive) permanent construction site to the leg. (I basically had that with my former S211, I do not need that again. ) At this point now you come with E What should you consider if you are looking for a G-Class from the above points of view or if you are visiting a specific used vehicle? I have already looked around Mobile.de and also here in the forum: Oh yes, if it should make a difference with the above points: I would prefer a long version. A short version would be OK and a convertible I do not want to have at all. (With which also all the ex-Bundeswehr-Wölfe ‘ra And one more fundamental question: In the planned construction period, W461 and W463 were partly built in parallel according to Wikipedia. Is – besides possibly (not) available engines – the only difference between W461 and W463 the one that the 463 is aimed at the “civil” market and is “more plusy” inside and comes with more electronic toys? Or are there other, more fundamental differences? Then I am on your opinion. n and comments eager… Ciao, sjs77

Oh, man, I’m really frustrated. I finally got “my” G, drove home from the dealer 300km, complacent, super and great. Then at home, first a little beauty care and a few little things up. Stand 2 days. On the evening of the 2nd day suddenly the headrest passenger side only went up, not down any more. However, it was probably on the switch, because when a memo button of the seat setting was pressed, she drove down again. Only manually it was not possible. The first morning, the very first exit. On boarding I heard a rat in the passenger footroom. I knew the sound, there hangs a relay. Started, driven, but only in the already mode, faster than 50 would not work. Suddenly, suddenly after 5min, everything normal and he drove unreservedly. After another 10min stopped, a small errand was made, again when entering the relay noise. I got nervous. Go. Everything normal, a luck. But after c. 5min drive the engine goes off See ESP, ABS, etc. Errors are reported in the on-board computer. Engine no longer starts, the starter doesn’t even start turning. Rolling out at the side stripe. Workshop passes, start aid, everything does nothing. ADAC comes and drags me to the Bosch service on the advice of the workshop. He has been whirling around for 10! days and finds nothing. They even towed the car to Daimler. No result. He doesn’t start, always brings error messages. Front Sam has been replaced, then limps. Res SAM, and what is it? Nothing. I despair. Has anyone ever heard such a thing? Is there an electric G-pop? Guys, that sucks all the joy of me, I’m close to showing the edging the grudge shoulder.

Moin together, as at the 1st exit I would like to make a proposal for the 2nd exit 2015 on 01.03.2015 from 10:00 o’clock: This is not an event initiated by me but one of the MSC Lägerdorf, which is however open for all vehicles. I am there also “only” part-takers. We met in the gravel pit Holling, Forstweg 6, 25560 Puls. It is a larger terrain, on which can also be driven free. Furthermore, trial-sect I’d like to go from section to section and explain everything exactly, if you want to. The event is for beginners as well as for professionals (so it’s not rally but skill common). It can come who wants to. If you want to support me, it would be nice if you would contact me first. Best regards: Lars!

Hello. That there is no indication of instant consumption in the G is understandable given the fuel consumption. Anyone who buys a G knows that this is not a consumption-optimized vehicle. But is it normal that the average consumption indicator is completely wrong? What do you have here for experience? With my other vehicles there is a tolerance of up to 0.7 liters. With the G 350 BT (model 2015, recently purchased) I now had an average consumption of 11.4 liters after 602 KM / 100 KM on the display. I have now refuelled 77.77 liters. This results in an average consumption of 12.92 liters / 100 KM (of course the refueling method is also inaccurate, the tank quantity depends, among other things, on the outside temperature and on the previous even refuelling; but certainly more accurate than the display). Clearly 12.92 liters is fully in the bearable range, especially with a diesel engine not yet in use, many short distances, preheating (about 20 minutes) and a G Untested drivers. But you can’t rely on the display. This is 1.5 liters next to it. That’s a considerable deviation. Does the display only show desired values and serve to calm your conscience? Will this be better during G life or should you simply hide the display in the future? Or does the heater consume a huge amount of fuel (it could actually only make up half a liter for the total quantity of fuel used and it would be cleaned up around the heating system. still use 12.8 liters). Greetings Tom

I find daytime running light in principle very useful – although the G is not really easy to overlook…. Has jmd experience with such things: http://www.ebay.de/itm/121373347308?… Greeting Jan

Even if it comes across strangely: I don’t like these multifunction steering wheels. No matter what shape, but keys have lost nothing (yes, yes, I know I have this opinion almost exclusively). Is it possible to mount a steering wheel without buttons but with airbag (it should fit from the mounting steering column) and to get a solution for the operation of the on-board computer? I would think of keypads on the back that could be placed there. Or quite without action, only if the i Need to connect a keypad, too. And of course the ABE should be preserved or entered. Doofe idea? Good slide! Carsten
