  1. What was the cause of this occurrence?
  2. This is a great steady @Darthilli. Exclamation of surprise or disbelief.
  3. I have noticed an unusual bulge in both of my rear tyres, which is a first for me. Is there a defective batch of tyres?
  4. I'm pleased to hear that you have resolved the issue. There is a single bolt on the E90 that is rather difficult to fasten, but it does not seem to be as challenging as the one you are describing.
  5. I concur with the statement made by RosaStyle before. I also had a similar issue with my recently acquired e90, but fortunately, there was no noticeable movement in my vehicle. I decided to replace both bearings simultaneously while I was in the process of arranging to install new discs. Currently, quiet has great value, as shown by the acronym "lol".
  6. Similar to you, I have dedicated time to the E60 Facebook forums without any success. I am now facing the same problem, but I have not yet made any replacements due to the fact that these things are never as they seem. My vehicle is a 2008 535d equipped with a DMS automotive map. The dpf and egr parameters were separately deleted, and subsequent remaps were performed just for those parameters using a different mapper. The vehicle has a repeating 41aa code as identified by Carly. Are you using Carly? Upon examination of my freeze frames, I have seen a recurring pattern of them occurring at rest or near idle rpms. When this event takes place, the vehicle is either in a state of rest or near-rest, and it detects a disparity in the surrounding pressure in order to increase the pressure. At rest, I anticipate that they will be identical. It seems that not. Moreover, my values remain distinct even when the engine is not in operation. The observed boost value exceeds the ambient value, which is not accurate. Based on that premise, I would assert that my map sensor malfunctions. I have had difficulty in locating any discussions or material on the internet that provides definitive evidence about this problem code.
  7. We can get a shade of pale grey.I am used. Additionally, white may be arranged at an additional expense.
  8. Greetings, The condition of these items is excellent. The whole cost, including delivery to Sweden, should be 6,000 euros. However, the shipment cost has to be verified. The black leather is in excellent shape. If you possess a genuine curiosity, kindly send us a private message and we may transmit photographs and videos to you over WhatsApp. We may also excavate them and measure their weight. Sincerely
  9. We own a collection of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) recaro bucket seats. Black leather
  10. I purchase an oil filter, air filter(s), and cabin filter from Euro Car Parts. When I need a gasoline filter, I often get one from MB due to the extensive range of options available for our vehicles.
  11. Ensure that they are authorised by your insurance provider. It is sometimes preferable to make reservations via them.
  12. A dealer will not install a screen themselves; instead, they will hire a subcontractor to do so. Your warranty will remain unaffected. Make sure that the person handling your vehicle is able to readjust the rain sensor located near the mirror.
  13. Provide money discreetly in an envelope while seeming suspicious or evasive.
  14. Advanced version: The petrol engines are equipped with chains. The diesel engine is equipped with belts.
  15. Occasionally, I have discovered that a Battery of comparable dimensions also works well. Regarding my key fob, I believe it requires a CR2032 battery. However, since I didn't have a spare one available, I attempted to use a CR2025 battery instead, which proved to be functional despite being significantly slimmer.
  16. I have acquired knowledge via errors and have experienced many situations. An effective approach to obtain desired outcomes is to promptly return the product, park it conspicuously in the centre of the sales area with all entrances exposed, approach the salesperson, and assertively express dissatisfaction by stating something to the effect of... "You have sold me a defective product. Either rectify the issue immediately or I will persistently vocalise my grievances throughout the day, highlighting how you have deceived me." This method tends to yield favourable results. Once upon a time, I had a Mercedes A class car. However, I am perplexed as to how I found myself returning to the Mercedes brand again. Revised to include... I completely empathise with the original poster. I would expect a pre-owned Mercedes to be in impeccable condition, with any concerns promptly addressed and fixed without any complications. It is just the perception that the Mercedes brand creates, but regrettably, we are seeing an excessive number of such messages.
  17. While I understand your gratitude, it is important to empathise with the perspective of the dealers. Considering that you did not purchase the item from them, but want them to address the issue and then take it to another establishment, it may create a complex situation. If you purchased a Samsung television from PC World and then attempted to have it repaired at Argos and John Lewis, would you anticipate receiving satisfactory service from Samsung? The dealers serve as intermediaries, facilitating transactions between buyers and sellers, rather than directly engaging with the Mercedes company. While acknowledging the necessity for warranty repairs on the automobile, I believe that your approach has been misguided. If my car, registered in 1969, shown an oil warning light on the inaugural trip home, I would not have taken it home.
  18. Wouldn't it have been more prudent to return it to the first vendor rather than visiting every other Mercedes-Benz dealership in the vicinity? I see a minimum of 4 dealers inside this chain, making it difficult to monitor and track each individual's actions.
  19. Given the presence of screenwash in the reservoir, which specific kind of screenwash fluid do you utilise? It is becoming usual for the fluid to solidify when multiple brands are combined. Contrary to popular belief, not all fluids are compatible, and when examining their chemical composition, considerable discrepancies might be seen in some circumstances. If I recall well, a few years ago when I researched this, I found that Volvo was the only other manufacturer that had comparable components to those of MB.
  20. After removing the wiper arms and top trim piece, it is advisable to create an aperture or add an access lid for the brake reservoir fluid. I installed an aluminium frame and carbon cover on my vehicle. However, I found it rather inconvenient to have to remove the whole front trunk, wipers, and trim pieces only to check fluid levels.
  21. The Pioneer SPH DA160 DAB was obtained from Incartec, a company specialising in Mercedes CLK (C209) facelift Stereo Upgrade Kits, Parking Cameras, Speaker Rings, and Upgrades.
  22. Concurring with the steering wheel controls and using the touch screen does not pose any difficulty. However, in the case of the Range Rover, it requires a little effort to reach the controls, which I would not encounter with the CLK. I must express my dissatisfaction with the sound quality produced by the speakers that have been placed. However, it seems that these older installations lack an amplifier or subwoofer.
