  1. Have you ruled out a fractured exhaust manifold as the origin of the sound?
  2. The audio quality is terrible. Is it possible that there is a break in the manifold? They have the ability to produce peculiar sounds.
  3. The W212 E63 2014-16 had the option of foldable rear seats and distronic. I did not have one of those features on my 64 plate E63. All the photographs I have seen of the W213 E63 saloon show the inclusion of foldable rear seats as a standard feature.
  4. Are you sketching or doodling in mid-air?
  5. It is worthless. The repairs exceed the initial estimate or budget and create lingering concerns about unsolved additional problems. In the present day, there is a significant value in salvaging materials since several components may be resold.
  6. What was the reason of the lack of oil pressure? Is the oil pressure switch malfunctioning?
  7. I own a collection of W201 wood, namely Zebrano and the somewhat scarce Burl Walnut that was installed in the final vehicles. Do you have any measurements or a few photographs of the damaged wood without the shifting gaitor installed?
  8. I am unable to recall. Does the aperture in the wooden panel vary between a manual gearbox vehicle and an automated gearbox car?
  9. May I inquire as to the reason for this, if you don't mind my asking?
  10. My GLC was parked overnight on my driveway after functioning normally during the day. The next morning, there were many warnings appearing about ABS, Cruise control, Limiter, and an engine warning light (Yellow). I made a reservation at my nearby independent garage, where they determined that the problem was caused by rodent-inflicted damage to the ABS sensor on the front left wheel. It is believed that a fox or a squirrel has gnawed on the cable, resulting in a 100mm part being removed. Has anybody else experienced this phenomenon, and if so, what measures might be taken to avoid its recurrence?
  11. The upper areas you have specified would greatly benefit from a thorough polishing. There are several kits available on the market, with the 3M kit being my favourite option. However, if you dedicate sufficient time to the task, utilising fine grit sandpaper with water as a lubricant might provide satisfactory outcomes. It is crucial to seal the lens after cleaning to prevent the UV from causing the lens to get cloudy again. The majority of kits are equipped with a lens sealant.
  12. I don't know the answer, however based on my observation, every manual conversion on earlier Mercedes vehicles often use the 6-speed gearbox from a 203 model. I am uncertain if the reason for such is due to the availability or the simplicity of the converting process.
  13. It is not a difficult task to make changes. There are many high-quality films accessible for reference, and affordable aluminium shafts may be found on eBay.
  14. The S211 is the most aesthetically pleasing station waggon that Mercedes has ever manufactured. It just exists...
  15. The automobile is identical, although it was just a few months ago.
  16. I have previously seen this item on this platform as well as on eBay, maybe from the same vendor. I am curious about the exact amount for which it did not sell.
  17. Does it occur continuously or sporadically? Both of my E-class vehicles had a similar sound, originating from the region behind the driver's door. Despite having different engines, the sound was consistent across the two vehicles and only occurred sporadically. However, the sound was not as loud, until it was magnified by the phone. I attributed it to DPF-related issues and did not encounter any difficulties. I am also curious to learn what it is, however.
  18. The purpose of the remarks is to provide guidance or recommendations. It is possible that the fluid level is incorrect. Regardless of the issue, the dealer should evaluate the situation.
  19. Therefore, what is the rationale for placing confidence in them once again and opting to bring a vehicle of such advanced age to the authorised dealership?

  23. Impressive, a substantial amount of power for the price. πŸ™‚πŸ‘
  24. Regrettably, without more detailed information, it is challenging to provide a helpful recommendation on the precise cause of the engine's failure to start. The presence of another individual who confidently asserts that their speculation is the solution is the least desirable scenario for you. However, for what it's worth, this thread might serve as a valuable "warning example" for anybody considering the proposition of hiring an unqualified individual for a monetary payment.
