  1. In my CLK, I have installed a Pioneer Avic-920. The installation process was somewhat complex, requiring the removal of the headliner, back seats, and trim panels in order to properly route the wires for DAB GPS AM/FM and rear camera. Nevertheless, the effort to get reliable DAB and GPS signals proved to be well worthwhile. I often engage in work activities in downtown London and have little disruptions in GPS signal. Additionally, the door speakers have been replaced and synchronised with the head unit.
  2. After installing a new interior, it is possible to discover water damage in electronics or wire harnesses. Additionally, there may be an unpleasant lingering fire smell on warm days. Moreover, if the interior is saturated, there is a potential danger of mould and corrosion occurring under the carpet. I believed that fire damage referred to the previous Cat B classification, which thus rendered the vehicle ineligible for road use. If you are interested in disposing of it, you may consider repurchasing it with the intention of dismantling it, or exploring the possibility of selling it to a Mercedes breaker. However, it is not advisable to invest a significant amount of money in purchasing a new interior. Apologies for the unfortunate circumstances.
  3. Consider that all vehicles are equipped with an air cap located on the top of the windshield, however some have a manual control while others have an automated control that adjusts based on the vehicle's speed. No, an additional air deflector is not necessary since the built-in one located behind the rear seats functions well. However, I do own an extra deflector to provide piece of mind while traveling at high speeds on the autobahns, as it prevents anything on the back seats from becoming airborne.
  4. The MB bolts with reference number A0009905407 are corrosion-resistant and need less effort to maintain cleanliness. MB BOLT
  5. The automatic subtitles are unable to comprehend it.🤣
  6. What issue is arising that leads them to advocate the necessity for a manifold? It is quite improbable that this occurrence is just coincidental, especially considering the recent recall to inspect the manifold. If the dealer is not providing assistance, it may be advisable to file a complaint with BMW UK.
