Category: Mercedes S-Class & CL Forum

Servus soon wanted to make an oil change on my car. I would have 2 questions for this: 1. Does the CL have more than one oil filter. Could be, since it already has 2 spark plugs per cylinder. 2. Is special tool necessary? I mean other than these pliers for the oil filters. Since the oil filter itself is not a cartridge, but basically the inside. So only the filter element is replaced. mfg Michael

Good morning to each other, it’s time. A new car is to be purchased. For days I have been looking for information on the Internet and today I stumbled through your forum. The reason for the whole search is the S-Class in its current appearance. Since I am a passionate diesel driver it is also to become one this time. The qual of the choice is already limited because there are only two diesel models in the current S-Class. I tend to 420 cdi. Unfortunately I have no experience. ng with this engine. How far can I trust the official consumption data? Can any of you help me further with regard to consumption, rideability and smooth running? Furthermore, the question arises normal or long version? Is the surcharge of the long version worth compared to the short version? Will the standard equipment be raised in the long version? Which special equipment can be dispensed with, which one is a must? What I would definitely like to have: Leather Seat Heating / Seat Ventilation Absta ndsregeltempomat Ambientelicht Navigation Parking assistant Xenon headlights Sliding roof electric adjustable seats What else to recommend? Return camera Massagasitze night vision device or are these just technical toys to be able to specify at the regular table? I hope you can help me further and I look forward to your answers. Best regards Wolfgang

Hello people, would like to exchange my brake blocks as they unfortunately dust very strongly. In two days on normal ride in the city and highway, the rim is so thickly dirty that I have been getting on my nerves for a long time, to clean the rims again. since I have bbs rims it is also very time-consuming always to clean the whole holes exactly with the toothbrush, otherwise you can’t get there differently,if then only hard with the normal brush. but now to the actual question: since I do auc h drive a w124 and know that it can not spoil so quickly, I decided to replace the ones by the black stuff brake pads because the according description should not dust. see ebayhttp://cgi.ebay.at/…02QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713.m153.l1262 now appear various brake pads on the article in ebay,a temperature scale indicates the catagory from road-compatible to rally the green surfaces of green stuff should be heat-resistant up to 700 cred, like this one with the resistance or is the blackstuff with a maximum of 400crad enough? since the green ones are twice as expensive, would I like to hear from you specifics if it would make sense to spend more money? maybe you also know better manufacturers for brake pads? thank you already for euro info gruss jason

Hello guys, I have discovered a few pictures of a S-Coupe (W140) which has been converted e.g. convertible. Can someone give me exact information about it? e.g. -where you can have it remodeled -what it costs -much more detailed pictures if you have to carry out such a conversion yourself, which requirements have to be met so that the TÜV is OK? What are the costs for the TÜV acceptance? I thank you for your contributions!

Hello @all If you look around at various car exchanges, you get cars like the former S-Class (W140) already starting from 6000 Euro – and that with cars which once cost well over 100,000 DM. Now the W140 in many eyes is anything but elegant (unless one calls also a Leopard 2 A5 battle tank as elegant ). What do you think will cost in 5 – 8 years a model of the current S-Class from the beginning time? Then something could be spun into the future. The next or the next car will certainly be a car that is still largely priceless for most people today… What is your opinion on this?

Dear S-Class driver, it has now happened, all details of the meeting are now fixed. As can be read in the headline, the S-Class meeting will take place on Saturday 17.08.13 in the district of Kassel. More details will be communicated to you after registration. I would like to ask anyone who would like to participate in the meeting to inform me about this via. PN. Every few weeks I will send a renewed list of participants to the already participating persons (data protection). The number of passengers is limited to 17 vehicles. Also the number of people should not be exceeded. I ask you to register only if you are sure. Greetings Marcel pdf for incoming mail in the annex

Hello, the Maybach is now technically quite of the day before yesterday, compared to the W221. Is there a new edition planned, or at least a model maintenance? Or is the car bought so little that a change is no longer worth it? Maybe even its end in sight? Questions about questions. Are there insiders here who have concrete facts knowledge? Would be grateful for answers that are not based on mere conjectures. MFG Pluto

Hello, I’m interested in where I can connect the charge for the starter battery without having any problems with the electronics. Have I ever pinned directly to the poles and then had funny error messages. Does anyone know of you for sure where I can connect a maintenance charge?

Bearing in mind the difficult situation of marketing which is extremely subtle, the Maybach does not have to be regarded as the direct successor of the W 150 and thus as the 2nd “big Mercedes”? ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
