  • Change cooling capacity

    A new day, a new question: I have an E 320 CDI T-model, Bj 5/2000, 140,000 km, there is in the service booklet under “additional work every 3 years: coolant change”. My free workshop means: “Do you really want to do this to yourself?” Does this really make sense or is it covered? Can only affect the corrosion protection in the cooling water, frost protection and cooling effect do not age, doesn’t it? Does the change also help to prevent the calcification of the cooler? 5 years with approx. 100,000 km it should still last … Thanx

  • These indicators are broken…..

    Hello, I’ve been driving an MB E220 T CDI BJ 99 or 2000 for 2 years. At my last KD (ATU) I’ve been pointed out to leaky injectors and I’m supposed to have this fixed with MB – what I wanted to do today too (at ATU the necessary tool is not available) During the preliminary interview the MB Master said that an exchange of injectors with a probability of 70% to 30% will not be necessary, so his experience would be worth. But after the review almost hit me. The statement of MB: all injectors are totally fixed (or destroyed – or as always you say, I forgot to be afraid) all 4 have to be replaced and that costs times so sluggish 2.500 €. I first picked up my vehicle again and would like to get some opinions about it. The car is also totally rusty – so that I don’t think a repair is worth it anymore – even though it’s only 180.000km and still an inheritance from my father is! My question – can be asked – thank you for the same thing?

  • How much oil does a CDI engine eat?

    Hello! I am surprised that a new engine should eat oil at all. I mean not oil loss due to a leak or something, but the consumption of oil in the operation of the engine. Could you please indicate your experience possibly with age of the engine driving performance, so that I would have a comparison. Thank you MM

  • Aral 0W-40 or Mobil 1 ESP 0W-40?

    Hello together, with my old W210 CDI I had excellent experiences with the normal mobile 1 0W-40. Now with my “new” W211 E320CDI, Mopf, the first oil change is for me. Which oil would you rather recommend to me: the fully synthetic Aral SuperTronic 0W-40 or the mobile 1 ESP 0W-40, which is probably not fully synthetic oil? Or don’t give them anything important? Thank you for your help!

  • Resetting Service B at Mercedes Roadster

  • SLC as a full-year vehicle

    A friend of mine is thinking of buying a used SLC 200 and selling his other car. From the place, that would be enough, but he is not sure if it is good to use the SLC with the folding roof all year round, so also in snow. How do you see it? No problems? j. PS: How do you rate the price development of the SLC? Does it have chances of a small loss of value because it is no longer built?

  • SLK R170 200 (without compressor) Light switch (A170 545 01 04) defective or other problem?

    Hello again, I was unfortunately quite unsuccessful in my internet search. With me since yesterday evening the stand light does not go out when I put the light switch on “0”. I.e. stand light at the front; rear; license plate lighting; valve lighting lights and the car beeps when I open the door. Did then the battery clamped down accordingly, to deal with me more closely today. My first guess was a safety problem, but all fuses look so clean, so I removed the complete light switch. Then everything went out and also the beeping stopped. Does that mean for me that the light switch is actually defective, or can still provide something else for the problem? Can someone tell me which plug on the light switch is responsible for what? The second from right to picture 1 is in any case responsible for the warning tone and the valve lighting. PS: Another observation: When I have connected the battery again today at noon the stand light did not work directly again. Only when I activated the light switch, however, it did not go ahead of time.

  • Fan connection Interior connections? (SLK R170)

    Hello guys, can someone tell me how the fan connections of the interior fan are switched under the glove compartment? The Puster regularly fails and jumps arbitrarily again. A system behind it is not recognizable. We could not provoke any wobble contacts. We removed the engine yesterday and cleaned everything. Defects are not visible. Collector and coals look good. Bearings run easily. To circle the sporadic error, I want to measure or connect a test lamp to the supply line before we expand the whole switch element. Can the controller be also? The fan box has 3 connections, which go inside on the controller. And the other side probably to the blower step switch Only what is what and how occupied? Plus, mass and control line? A circuit diagram of the overall circuit with the ventilation step switch would be great.
