  • Navigation CDs for W220

    Hello together and merry Christmas :-), I have a W220 Bj. 99 S500 and have a Navi CD Teleatlas 1999 that works perfectly. Now I thought of a more up-to-date version could not hurt 🙂 and ordered me Blaupunkt Travel Pilot Germany 2005/2006 (no DX). When the 3 CDs came I tried out immediately with the result: no navigation CD please change CD. With all three no success. The whole returned and got new. Again with the same Erg ebnis, my Navi (Command D) does not recognize the CDs. The old one is easily recognized and read and funtioned. Does anyone have an idea what the mistake can be? Thanks to you and greeting M

  • Remove Kats – more power?

    Apart from that, the BE goes out and then you can’t drive in public road traffic anymore… What does that mean to remove the cats and replace them with simple pipes (cat replacement pipes). Some of my people have done this and report a noticeable increase in performance (S8, S6 and an A8 4.2) What about it? Or is it just the subjective impression because the car is getting louder… I have expressed my concerns about the exhaust flow of the vehicles? but exactly adapted to the engine is right? Please don’t have any instructions, one should know something more precise, especially in the V8 >300ps class then please get the information. Greetings from the capital Schulle

  • Outer mirror works very slowly

    hello, have the search already tried but found nothing. have bought the s430 before a week, have now found the following problem: if I have the outside mirror fold in, this is done on the side of the driver quite normal, however on the side of the driver it takes about twice as long as on the side of the driver. one hears on the driver side a quiet “tack-tack” as if the teeth would not grip correctly. does anyone know this problem? handles here the MB-europa-guarantee? car has circ a 88′ down and is completely stapled and was also bought at a MB branch.

  • THE COMPARISON TWO CENTURY AUTOS: Bentley Flying Spur and MB S600

    Bentley Flying Spur or MB S 600? The fascinating report by user (and Bentley owner) SamRS6 has led me to make the comparison Bentley Flying Spur and Mercedes S600 (W221) one of the three most attractive limousines in the world!! How do you see the comparison? Who do you see in front / would you buy? Both are fantastically motorized. b) Bentley: permanent all-wheel drive/6-speed automatic transmission 3. Dimensions and weights: a) S600:2180 kg/L: 5206 mm, B: 1871 mm b) Bentley: 2475 kg/L: 5307 mm, B:1916 mm Decisions should be made to compare the subjective points: driving feeling, design, where I feel better off ? ……. The Mercedes looks more modern in design (despite its style), the Bentley is a car with a very dignified, almost aristocratic appearance. Driving active (and driving fun) are both cars: the S600 with its ABC chassis; Bentley is not a pure glider like the Rolls-Royce by its own understanding. The interior looks more classic and noble in Bentley than the S600. “The Workplace” of Bentley, the “Rolls-Royce for Self-Drivers”, looks even more lu Stronger than the S-Class. Also for the Bentley the easier operation (no menu control) and not to forget the better traction. Which one should I buy? P.S.: Both cars were tested in the “auto motor und sport” (both rated 5 stars). The S 600 in issue 3/2006 (18.1.2006), the Bentley in issue 14/2005 (22.6.2005). Both tests can be read against payment: 1. MB S 600:http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/…/?slnr=26041 2.

  • Prejudice against 500 SEC?

    Hello guys, is it true that the old 500s SEC, year 89, are drinking animal fuel? I have been warned about the consumption of the engine. So you know that how much they consume, right? How much is the tax with G-Kat at the cylinder capacity? What does the insurance cost in about (partial cascade). Do you know special Internet pages about the SECs of old? It is the most beautiful car at all and I am looking for information before the purchase. I thank you for tips and information!

  • What do you think about a young SL driver?

    Hello friends Have a question to you. And I have been driving the SL Mopf 2 for 3 years now. I got it when I was 25 years old as a new car. Somehow I still haven’t managed to get used to the car, beautiful car no question, but somehow I always feel like the car doesn’t belong to me. In such an expensive and beautiful car you are unintentionally in the center. Then everything has to be right, hairdresser, clothes haircut etc. otherwise people quickly believe the In any case, I always have the feeling that people think that. Especially that many people have to turn around to check the license plate to see if the car is not rented, sometimes I am incredibly pissed off. Since my leasing veto actually expires this year, the guy from Mercedes called me and said that we should already schedule the next car. Just asked me if the new SL was nothing. But then I still did. I don’t know what you think about a young man who drives a very expensive car? I have to say that I’m a Turk, and no I don’t do any crooked business, pay decent taxes, etc. I don’t know, but I’m already kind of burdened by that. I don’t know what I’m doing, I don’t know.

  • US-450SL EZ 1980

    Hello together, have acquired via Ebay a US-450SL (California plate) with top equipment such as climate, ZV, leather etc. at a favorable price. I have the hope that I get the H-approval. Seller is a Dutchman, vehicle letter and customs documents should be available according to the specification. How can I find out if the engine of this car is power-driven like so many US-MB? Call about the chassis number and at MB-Classic? Does anyone know which parts of the car for d The car has the U.S. bumpers and the double headlights, which I honestly liked better with the W108/W111 than with the W107. Thanks+Greetings OM

  • Ctek chargers

    Hello, I have been the proud owner of a SL350 for a good 6 weeks (EZ 05/2010). Since I use the vehicle less now, I carry myself with the idea to buy a charger or charging device for the rear battery. After I have read a lot now, I have the following specific questions: Is the Ctek MXS3.6 identical to the device that you can buy from Mercedes (item number: A0009820121) or are there any differences? Is it useful to buy this device or is there e s by Ctek what better for the rear battery of my SL350? Then a question for handling. Is it really so easy that you only have to plug the adapter of the charger into the socket under the boot lighting and the battery is charged or the charge is received? Sorry, if I asked stupid questions. But I’m technically totally undisturbed. Greeting Richy

  • 2 x SL129 – which has more potential?

    I am still thinking of buying a nice R129 – had a SL280 (1996 year of construction)…he would be a pure hobby / weekend car for nice days and no everyday use. I have to say that I (still) live in Dubai, and the SL in any case for a (very) long time – so also again in D, should stay in the fleet. Here are now two available, which I like both quite well – which is probably the better choice here (same condition and condition). d same purchase price accepted): A) SL320 from 1998 (still with the M104 R6 engine) – 126.000km, very well maintained with documents including purchase invoice etc. – smoky metallic, inside safran/java (264A) with dark brown softtop – panoramic roof, xenon – otherwise no superior equipment B) SL500 from 2001 (one of the last, more details – whether special model still unclear) – 105,000km – silver metallic, inside gray seats and cockpit, cover rack, overroll jacks are red / red – AMG package, X enon – other equipment unknown (I don’t have the VIN yet) The 500’s naturally appeals to engine technology, whereby I think the 320 is sufficient (it’s either way not a sports car), color combinations please me both, the panoramic roof is a big plus point from the first, the AMG package a smaller plus point from the second … which therefore take into the short choice?!
