Category: Mercedes S-Class & CL Forum

Hello together, last week I had a problem with sudden smoke generation in the stand with warm engine. A check in the workshop showed that everything was quite normal, just the heater squeak so, but I would know that… well, thank God not, but the car actually does not heat up more than 80 degrees, which is why next week some thermostat is replaced, then it should go again. However, I was noticed an oil loss at the back repair costs with exchange of the Simmering ca. 520€, kulanz application rejected (on 16.12.2004). The car is year 5/01, I am first owner, all inspections after DC intervals in contract workshop, 103TKM. I had Kulanz clarified beforehand, therefore I have not yet given an order. Legally I can do nothing about this, therefore need material from similar cases in which Kulanz was paid. At my home place I find no fresh oil stains, so does not seem to trop If you could help me by e-mail or give me other tips, I would like to thank you in advance. I found only one post here in the forum with another person affected:http://www.motor-talk.de/t460061/f77/s/thread.html Wishing everyone an accident-free, healthy, peaceful Christmas season. Thomas

Hello, I am interested in an S500 long from the year 2003 with full equipment. I would be interested in general information about what to look for. Is there perhaps equipment that is very prone to defects. What average consumption has to be expected with the 500er (Landstraße, Autobahn)? If these questions have been asked many times, then links or references to corresponding forum contributions would also help me. Thank you. MfG Martin

Hello, why doesn’t this car go away? Isn’t this a cheap offer? Or is there a catch I don’t see (no, I don’t want to separate myself from mine, but I’m curious why this one is at ebay for the third time already).http://cgi.ebay.de/…tegoryZ9855QQssPageNameZWDVQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Request for information, thank you, MFG Pluto

Hi, someone can tell me why the CL is not built with a 350 engine. After all, there is the S class also with a 350 engine. Since the CL is the coupe to the S class, why is it not delivered with the same engines? The SL is also available with the 350 engine.

Hi, it’s always the same, hardly have you arrived with your splendour where you wanted to go, get out, already, as if they had only been waiting for you, stand strange blood-poor and lean figures in health centers next to you. “But this is a great car, what consumes that so ? My answer is then usually,” this is a 5 liter car “Oh great, although it is so big ??? ” and you are already rid of it……….. It’s always tiresome, debates about the drinking habits of these vehicles. They offer for relatively small money comfort, safety and ultimately still a piece of image. The replacement partial prices are generally very moderate, and the insurance rates anyway. In 10 years I had now 6 pieces ( this will remain from the almost perfect condition my last ) and I only once, due to the failure to exchange the battery, did not come where I wanted to go. So last the things need what they need, they deserve it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don’t know if you’ve seen photos of the new S-Class, or have any info, if it’s an old hat, if you don’t know it now. the new S-Class will have just like the sevens too… -The I-Drive stuff. -the second hill for the display -the Navigier wheel in the same place -the circuit will also have on the steering wheel. Except for the design One can see once again where the proper innovations and ideas come from. Greetings from Stuttgart, esperanda …can anyone know more?? DC doesn’t start with such a I-Drive shell, does it??

Thank you very much for your information. I don’t have the new C140er. Distronic retrofitting is therefore too expensive for me. I have a heater with remote control and it’s also really fun at the moment. On comfort, however, every S or CL driver likes it but also wants good look, plan in the spring 19″ or 20″ wheels with spacers because someone has experience how to drive it afterwards? Should you pull 19″ or 20″ on it with or without spacers and enn how many mm are to be recommended per page? Let me inform you about drivers who have experience P.S. If you’re a bit stöbert say some don’t go out about 17″ in no case such a thing, chassis suffers comfort etc. is this really so bad?? Ok admitted is everything quite expensive but I like it easy and for something you save yes. Bye. johnny

V/max 270 km/h ? but the speedometer only goes up to 260 ! Since I wanted to understand this better (at all) I asked the seller, flaps answer: what I write-tunes the same ! I could have thought of myself He wrote in the description : “Full equipment and when I write full equipment then I mean full equipment. It is in the car everything you can imagine. Navi,Cd changer, telephone – just everything Mercedes for the S-Class s o has provided.” just everything except “Standheizung, Zweiklanghupe, Skisack, Kühler”!!! And I Seppl- gedankete immer Voll wäre but since I have now realized from which hand the car comes, I would not want it anymore. Does one of you have an explanation for me, because of the V/max history ? something in the way, like “locking off-but no money for a new Tacho” ? http://cgi.ebay.de/…mZ4623445858QQcategoryZ18221QQrdZ1QcmdZViewItem PS. Tüv he still has something (2 weeks) but new would be no problem at all, yes -is clear… because what he writes is also true
