  • Mirror on sun visor disintegrates

    Hello Rhino municipality With my Rhino the plastic of the mirror decays and where you can clip out the sun visor. In the net I usually find only the mirrors which are wider on the sides and the seal glass is therefore narrower. With my Rino the mirror and the flap is wider and thus the edge also narrower. Who already has experience with exchange and can give some tips.

  • ASB + ESB without function, r makes full braking while starting, numerous error messages with readout

    Hello, I’ve had 2 messages on the display ABS for a few days, ESP without function tire pressure monitoring not active Driving was still possible without any problems, only now and then I noticed a creaking, similar to when I drive over a bumpy road and brake (ABS). Since today I can no longer drive, as soon as I leave, after about 10m the R suddenly slows down. If I then stop and start again, it goes again about 10 – 20 m. etc. Feels like the ABS / ESP regulate, but the message says that this does not work. Do you have an idea, or experiences ? Greetings, Markus [From motor talk from the topic ‘ABS, ESP without function, car brakes simply while driving’.]

  • Lock Switch Change Window

    Hello together. The switch to lock the rear windows of the R class on the switching pad on the driver’s side clamps at the control panel for the electric windows. The switch is manually and currently pressed in can thus no longer be pressed and unlocked. Is there a way to release the switch again or to take out the entire control panel? Switch is still connected electrically so as far intact and not defective. Model: W 251; 320 CDI- BJ 2008 Vormopf Thank you and have a good evening.

  • Door entrance lights change

    Hello together I would have a question: how do I change the entry lights on the door? I recently got a star projector that is installed on front and behind doors instead of the normal entry lights. However, if you look at it more closely, there are no screws or anything else to recognize to build the lamps out. Has anyone ever made that change the door entry lights? And could anyone possibly explain to me how this works? would be great. I’ve also looked if you wrote a similar post before, unfortunately without success the only post I found on the topic was from @rd350L4M who asked if someone knows an entry lighting. Sincerely.

  • OM642 air filter changed

    Hello forum community, I changed the air filters at my thickness. Did you do this yourself? The instructions in the WIS is a little modest and rather intended for the w164. On the driver’s side I don’t get the rear screw of the luf filter tightened, on the right side the holder is broken. Do you have a trick for this? Best regards

  • Moin, short presentation

    Moin in the round. I bought a used c320 today. 180tkm,normal traces of use I originally came from the E61 3.0d A corner. No gamebreaker mmn available. What has now been noticed in retrospect: Backup battery seems to be hi. Seller had the main battery changed. (…) Question, the decor in the steering wheel, is there anything new? Lock driver door can sometimes be opened without a key. What can this be about? Where exactly is the backup battery? Question en about questions… Thank you very much

  • Electrical defective

    Hey zusammen, (R320 CDI, W251, BJ 2008, Vormopf) A few weeks ago I had already published an article here, but I find neither access data to my old account nor the article just about it. The problem that I have is that with my “R” during the ride all the lamps in the cluster instrument approach, tachometer, tachometer, tank indicator and kilometer indicator at this moment off and off – but several times in a row – during this period the “R” also springs off The radio only works “sporadic” or not at all since this error occurred. The problem does not always exist – there are days when the car drives without all these errors as if nothing were wrong, on other days (like today) these annoying errors occur constantly. In addition, the “R” shows from time to time errors like “blinker rear left defective, right defective or “follower turn signal left defective” although no trailer is connected. The “R” was read out only on Friday- My workshop starts from a cable break somewhere in the system, the first guess that was also written here, that it is the ECU in the emergency wheel tray, the friendly one excluded, because he meant the error would occur if it was the ECU permanently nonstop. I am slowly really desperate, because the “R” is so impractical, and I depend on the car. I hope you have tips and can help me. Mfg. Peter

  • Typical errors of the R class – collection

    Hello my warranty expires and therefore I still want to knock off typical errors of the R class, which have occurred and which I would like to check with my vehicle in this context. (In remember still well a defective crossbar with another brand which was broken 1 month after the regular warranty. O Ton: “Well that usually comes with the Km power…..” This thread is not flattering and I don’t want to start polemization here! Some of them will be typical – others will be more out of the way. ALSO PLEASE NO LONG HISTORY! ONLY ACTUAL REPARATURES AND NO “NORMAL” DISCLOSURE (e.g. brake pads ) – steering knarzt- steering bar changed (60000km/culance ) – 7 gear automatic slightly shaky after service routine change better (60000km) – sliding roof gear jumps over- re-calibrated (60000km/culance) – rust problem (see thread, culant ) – New Di – battery weak (62000 km) – engine leaks oil – filling plug in the back of the engine with new seal (65000 km/culence) – oil level warning indicator does not work properly (75000 km) – power supply cigarette lighter center console failed (75000 km) “WHERE AUTO SO HAD THE R CLASS FILLERS – BUT IT WAS NOT A FILLER TO BUY” *TO PEACE*
