  • 2004 W463 always pollutes itself

    I don’t like to drive a dirty car, advice like “buy another one.” don’t really help. Most of all, the dirt on top of the rear bumper corners wrung me. So far, I was in the belief that this comes from the draining water/lubrication of the rear door. Today, I found grass there after I had to drive a little over the meadow yesterday in relatively dry weather. And obviously, the inner wings are not flush on the outside wings. , at least not in the rear, lower part, the dirt whirled up by the rear wheels is looking for a way past it sideways. Can anyone confirm this suspicion and possibly give a remedy to get the wheel box really “dark”? Cheers Carsten

  • Repairs – is that still normal?

    In July 05 S class was bought (BJ12/02 model year 2003/ 42tsd; 320 CDI). When the expert threw it through, the 2 worn out carrier joints – rep. would have paid sellers (official Benz branch) but went completely on kulanz. A few weeks later oil loss? No, was diesel, the fuel hoses were porous. A lot on kulanz, I still had to pay 100 from my own pocket. Christmas in Frankfurt: battery weakened. I new g After 2 1/2 weeks of waiting, the replacement (approx. 930 Euro, fully paid the guarantee). EPC lights up, more and more often, today in the workshop to make diagnosis: Gas pedal does not work properly with electrics. (formerly this went by rope train, nice old time!). Cost approx. 300, but also pays completely the guarantee. Is such a accumulation still normal, or has the previous owner lubricated or is it a Monday car, which me after the guarantee f or is it due to the change of driver and perhaps the different driving methods (I sometimes take the “little one” quite hard and drive it like a sports car). ******What do you think?****** Otherwise I am completely satisfied and do not think that I can ever be happy with a “normal car”.

  • TV report: disc film as burglary protection

    Yesterday I saw a report on the TV, where one showed that a later applied special foil on the side panes offers better burglary protection. There are already tinting foils, or is there actually also colourless?! Do the actually same or similar effect, that if a disc is struck, this does not collapse immediately? Although I still think that the car manufacturer should try to make a considerably break-proof car h to create, it would be a good idea to additionally secure the car with such a foil…

  • 22-inch – no winter tyres possible?

    Good day together, just a few weeks ago I got my G63 MY2020 as a leasing, is on the 22er-AMG rims. Very chic, but since the winter is approaching and Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico was raised up, I wanted to switch to winter/full year with snowflakes, in order not to get any trouble in Austria. To my surprise, I had to find out that there is probably no single tire for the 22er to buy, which has snowflakes or at least M+S. Now h So it’s freezing to buy new rims + new tires, wanted to take all year round and store the 22s, as the anyway are leased and can be returned in a new condition. I looked at Reifen.com, there are from Ronal quite chic in black, R55 SUV 9.5×20, with Hankook 275/45 R20 KInERGy 4S, both together scarcely 2000€ including Monday and tire pressure sensors. Have no great experience with Hankook, but is not completely unknown to me as a brand. Can you drive the parts like this? Od has anyone managed to pull winter tires on the 22? Thank you for your advice.

  • Eisenmann at the SL 500 R230 Experiences?

    Hello! Since July of this year I am proud owner of an SL500 R230 year 2002 and so far I am very happy and happy to have decided for the SL and not for a 996. The only thing that clouds me and my mood is that he always gives me a little bit of a naja while driving, but sorry for the expression “opamäßg”. That means with a closed cover you hardly hear anything from the engine and in general it is in comparison to other sports cars n just kind of shamless. Well, I’ve made myself smart now on Google and came across Eisenmann exhaust systems. How does it look, is there here in the forum possibly SL500 colleagues who have the combination end and middle silencer of the company Eisenmann installed? How does the noise backdrop present itself? Is this pleasant, i.e. already deep and sporty (one should definitely have the power to my SL, at least a little notice ) but not too intrusive? Is the Eisenmann system a good compromise between my two requirements? I don’t think I need to worry about the quality of the system, do I? Looking forward to your answers and wish you a pleasant Sunday evening. Greetings to all Mercedes fans Thomas

  • Cabrio disc broken on the R129

    Hello! Does anyone have any experience with their insurance because of disc breakage at the soft roof? Would be grateful for some advice. At the beginning of March had sent the hardtop into the summer and the soft roof extended. Suddenly a cracking and the rear left disk was broken. Why are you actually insured and reported the damage to my insurance. Reason of breakage,which is too cold weather. Insurance refuses to take over the damage. No glass break,but wear. also an expert report was used for the material Wopavin(Flexglas) against break resistance and elongation of breakage, according to which the material for the discs can have absolutely nothing to do with wear. The vehicle, but I don’t know whether it is the first roof or if something has happened in this direction.My insurance, the Concordia. Did anyone have their experience with his insurance as well? Greetings from Kassel, MICHAEL

  • SL 350 with 55AMG end pots too quiet

    Hello Community, I have a 350 and last year I converted it to Optic 55 AMG. I thought that it gets louder by the 55th end pots but it remained discreet I bought the stainless steel medium pots from Eisenmann (500SL) but they are a lot bigger than what I have inside from home and my mechanic thinks that it may become quieter by the larger volume. What can I do to make it sound better, I have a bunch of medium pots inside, What if I remove one? And if so, which one. Thank you

  • My SL

  • Endlch, my first SLK is DA !!!

    Since yesterday I finally have a SLK! It is my dream car, 170 model, 230 compressor , year 99, 280,000 km, black, deep, hard !!! inside black/red. However a problem: from 120 km/h the warning lamp lights up for the cooler ! When I drive then again under 120, it goes out again. Besides: from 180 he starts to jerk something……. Does anyone have an idea what that can be ? I am grateful for all the clues.
