  1. Alright, I have made progress up to this point. I will thereafter publish a selection of photographs. Nevertheless, kindly refrain from informing me that the speaker is affixed to the rear of the vehicle via the trunk or bonnet. I am unable to locate any nuts or screws on this side. This is obstructing the process of replacing the filters. I am completely unaware of the location of the parking sensor buzzer. Correction: I have located the buzzer. The component is positioned high above, located below the fresh air vent ducting for the passengers.
  2. Greetings everyone, I had anticipated making more progress than what has been achieved so far. The user's text consists of a laughing face emoji. I have perused the available threads on the removal of the trim behind the glovebox, however it seems that the process may vary significantly for the Gen 1 facelift model. There is no screw that has to be removed from the side trim, and there are no screws present in the glovebox. I have removed all the screws below and can lower the trim at the rear by around 3-4 inches. However, I have encountered at least 2-3 clips that are producing a loud and unpleasant sound when pulled farther. Assistance in any kind would be very appreciated. I need to replace the parking sensor buzzer and have decided to concurrently replace the pollen filters.
  3. I just searched for my Kuga and found that it is displayed as "efb," but "AGM" is not there. Is AGM exclusive to Mercedes vehicles?
  4. I am uncertain as to the source of your information, to be honest. The 2004 e320 model was equipped with AGM as a standard feature, whereas stop-start technology was not yet available at that time. The primary focus is on the pace at which the charge is delivered and the ability to retain the charge, rather than the start-stop mechanism. The "stop start" feature is just a utilitarian choice. Many batteries now available are labelled as 'stop start compatible', indicating that they may be used interchangeably. Is efb a recent innovation?
  5. The vehicle has been hauled in, with a tow hook connected to the front, and it is now without any keys. I will decline that opportunity.
  6. Although I cannot ascertain its significance, it is possible to successfully pass an IVA exam by wearing glasses lenses.
  7. If you find yourself needing to initiate a telephone conversation, please be advised. Mercedes considers every detail.
  8. Could you verify the dimensions of your tyres? Is there a 255 tyre size on the rear?
  9. The main objective of creating a hoover is to decrease the boiling point of any moisture present in the system, causing it to evaporate. Additionally, it ensures the absence of air in the system, leaving only refrigerant occupying that area. Furthermore, when linked to the automated machinery used in automotive workshops, it serves the purpose of identifying any potential leaks in the system. However, it should be noted that this method is not the most effective, since a vacuum just represents the absence of atmospheric pressure (minus 1 bar). It is recommended to do a nitrogen pressure test to verify the integrity of the system. This test should be conducted at a minimum pressure equal to the system's operating pressure, namely on the high pressure side, which should be at least 15 bar. I would also be sceptical about using the do-it-yourself top up cans, since the refrigerant must be precisely measured and added once a hoover has been created, in order to get best performance. Using one of those cans involves mere speculation.
  10. If there is moisture present on the inside, it indicates the presence of a leak. I recommend examining the carpets and the floor of the trunk to identify the source of the leak and determine the location where the moisture is originating from. My automobile never experiences interior freezing, whereas my wife's car often does due to a persistent leak that gradually fills up the spare wheel well. Unfortunately, I have been unable to locate the origin of the water infiltration.
