  • Seat sample G-Class Built 2012-2017, room Essen/ Ruhr area

    Hello dear G-Class driver, since my Porsche Macan was stolen last week and is now looking for a new vehicle, I play again with the thought of getting a G-Class. Question: Is there a nice G-driver who lets me and my wife (both large) take a seat once. No test drive required. Specifically it is about the leg clearance I front and woman behind me, as child seat on the passenger side is to be attached in the rear. I would not like to have a car dealership If there is someone in the room Essen, Mülheim, Bochum, Oberhausen I would be very pleased about it. Some cash for the fuel bank would certainly be in motorization is certainly irrelevant, model from 2012 to 2017 would be my desired purchase. Thanks and maybe see you soon, Simon

  • Used car market 465 Speculation bubble?

    What is your opinion? Can it be that the long delivery time as well as the acquisition of a production slot is currently based only on the fact that a large number of hobby dealers have ordered and ordered the G class with the opinion to make a fast mark like to Corona? Facelift models don’t go well over list price at Mobile after my observation. And new Vorfacelift models from 2024 are already running close to the list price with a few 1000km. h high demand do not go away immediately?

  • Experience G65 AMG

    Hello, all of you a happy new year – good health and luck and all the best for 2025! I think about buying a G65 AMG. I’m fascinated by the twelve-cylinder, at least in theory, because I haven’t driven it yet. Purpose: Every day, every once in a while, maybe 5,000km a year. Can any of you share your experiences with the G65 AMG from your own perspective and describe your personal impressions? I’ve been driving the W463 and W463a for over 10 years, Up to now, however, had only 55s and 500s, both as suction cups (354hp and 387hp), as well as as turbo (422hp). Is the driving behaviour of the 65s similar or different, e.g. due to higher weight on the VA? Is the motorization perhaps even too much of the good and feels “unround”? Also other impressions. Thank you.

  • G class w463 bj 2021 Change star in grill

    Hello, unfortunately I can’t find any posts or instructions on the internet and need help from someone who knows about it. I have a chrome star in the radiator grille and want to exchange it for a black star. Unfortunately I don’t know how to get the old one. Can someone help? For the spare wheel have ordered a mounting plate, is it simply glued on it or attached from inside? thank you for the help and a nice Advent time.

  • Problems G270CDI Airbag Disruption Passenger seat and Interval wiper

    With my G270CDI, W463.322, I have the following problems: In the case of an unoccupied passenger seat, the SRS fault lights up when a passenger sits on the seat before the ignition is switched on. According to Mercedes, the seat occupancy detection is defective, but the sensor mat in the passenger seat is no longer available. What is the remedy here? Furthermore, the interval wiper does not work, in switch setting interval the wiper constantly runs at the slow speed. e Causes could be responsible for this? Thank you for your help! Greetings from Austria Georg Buchner

  • High beam error on W463, 2004, G500

    Hello together, the following problem on my vehicle. (W463, G500, EZ 2004) If the driving beam is switched on, the driving beam will turn on briefly and immediately off again. The driving beam switch will remain in “on” position, then the driving beam will turn on for a short time and then turn off again. After that, it will stop. In the instrument cluster, “check the remote light li/re lamp” will be displayed. In the case of light horn, this is the same problem. The driving beam will turn on briefly and immediately again. Does anyone know this problem? to: – Light bulbs are installed and also the correct H4 bulbs – Blue driving light control in the instrument cluster works – Everything else on the vehicle works without problems Thanks already for your help! Greetings, Sebastian

  • Seats for the G 461

  • Start problems after longer service life

    Hello in the forum! As already mentioned above, I have had a new start problem when the vehicle has been standing for several weeks – he never had that in the last 7 years. Vehicle: G280CDI, WDB 461.3341X181642, engine 642.975 (OM642 DE 30 LA), LL = 186700 Km. I have the impression that the engine does not get a diesel at the beginning. After a longer start sometimes a cylinder ignites and at some point it starts and runs normally. If the vehicle is only standing overnight, it does not have the problem. I don’t know this engine and its fuel system yet and therefore the question about some tips where to start looking – error reading with the diamex shows me P 0123 – throttle valves – position sensor switch P 0030 – Lambdasondenheizung – control circuit P 1955 – he always had this error With best thanks in advance, Heinz.
