  1. I appreciate your response, since it is logical and understandable. When searching for components, I may consider 7g plates.
  2. No, the fluid level is not low, since it has been adjusted and filled to the appropriate level. I shall examine the star readout.
  3. Greetings, I am a newcomer to Mercedes and I am the proud owner of a 2007 Mercedes C230 W203 Estate 2.5. According to the Vin decoder, my vehicle is equipped with a 7g gearbox. However, when I engage manual mode, I only get the options of R (reverse), N (neutral), D (drive) and gears 1 through 6. Is reverse considered as the first gear in this gearbox? Occasionally, when I am driving, the car becomes immobilised in third gear. To resolve this issue, I need to come to a stop, switch off the engine, and then restart it. After doing so, the vehicle functions normally once again. I have replaced the oil in the container, but, I am seeing an error code. Both numbers 2767 and 2768 are associated with component Y3/8n2. I am encountering difficulty in locating accurate information or obtaining the right licence plate for the car, since the majority of web resources pertain to either a 5th generation or 7th generation, rather than a 6th generation. When I contact Mercedes, they are unable of providing me with a part number or selling me the component. Instead, they need the item to be installed in their workshop. I am located in London, United Kingdom. I have included screenshots of the diagnostic results.
  4. As previously said, the issue at hand is to the access and removal of the pump. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDDLhf4mqk8&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.mbclub.co.uk%2F&source_ve_path=OTY3MTQ&feature=emb_imp_woyt
  5. The flaps were retained on my vehicle due to their recent addition to the new manifold. I removed them from my previous 635d device and encountered many regulatory complications, prompting me to refrain from re-engaging with destiny, despite the fact that other individuals have successfully accomplished this task without encountering any difficulties. The next model will be equipped with all the necessary linkages to accommodate the actuator, allowing for effortless insertion. Applause.
  6. The actuator seems satisfactory to me, albeit its visibility in the photo is limited. As far as I recall, it has just a single arm that may be inserted into the linkage on the manifold. The image seems to depict the linkage arm remaining attached to the actuator. It should just detach. The manifold was originally cleaned, however, further modifications were required to the actuator in order to establish a new stop point and address the wear in the linkage. The device functioned and lasted for around one year until the malfunction resurfaced, prompting me to choose for a replacement. Introducing a novel one. Thank you.
  7. It is quite unlikely that you may purchase it individually, and at that distance, the connection will experience wear. I purchased a manifold from Darkside developments at a price around £200, and the quality was exceptional. It fit well and has been accurate. In my perspective, the expense of cleaning and tampering with the original item is not justified. Applause.
  8. I hope that your automobile issues be resolved promptly. While contemporary cars are generally reliable, it is uncertain if the car or the dealer can be fully trusted to remedy the problem.
  9. If the footprints left by my girlfriend cannot be removed from the alacantara ceiling, it is quite unlikely that cigar smoke will be removable as well.
  10. Can you apply a filter for the term 'kit'? The authentic Mercedes-Benz oil filter often includes all the required 'O' rings in the packaging with the filter. If your engine uses a cartridge-type cartridge that is changed from the top of the engine, then this assumption applies. That concludes the matter. Inexpensive, like potato chips. Does a full filter 'kit' include air, engine oil, cabin, gearbox and fuel filters? It is uncertain if such a kit exists as a single thing. What specific goods or services are included in the £90 offer?
  11. My first CX5 had Bridgestone tyres, while the second one had Toyo tyres. Upon evaluation, the Toyo exhibited a more cushioned ride and was quieter. The Bridgestone tyre consistently provided better traction in all situations, however it was somewhat firmer and had a rougher ride. I am pleased with the Bridgestone tyres on my CX60, no issues. Our CX30 originally came with Toyo tyres, which appear to be well-suited for this type.
  12. Thank you for the valuable and informative tyre review, I appreciate it. Having driven two CX5's, one equipped with Bridgestone tyres and the other with Toyo's, I can confirm that there is a noticeable disparity in their performance. When using Bridgestone tyres, I had a sensation of restlessness, particularly when driving in town. Initially, I suspected that the wheels need balance, but this was not the case. The latest CX5 with Toyo tyres provided a smoother ride, maybe due to suspension adjustments in the 2022 model. I did not have the 2022 model for a sufficient amount of time to make a definitive assessment, but I still believe that the current CX60 provides a smoother ride compared to both CX5 models. I agree with previous remarks that the expensive Bridgestone tyres look better on the vehicle.
  13. The vehicles are not produced in sequential sequence based on their VIN, but it provides a rough estimate.
  14. The car's first sale took place in Canada.
  15. Your automobile may be found under the V10 Plus menu.
  16. Since the 2nd generation is no longer in production, below are the production data from the first model year in the USA. There were significant sales figures for coupes as a result of the prolonged model year. Closed body variants were released to dealers in April 2016, with the Spyder model being available almost a year later. The Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) are not produced in precise numerical order, therefore your position in the sequence is just an approximate range, not an exact location. Notes on the choices The headers are color-coded in a certain sequence. Available factory configurations Accessories put at the port Audi Exclusive features If a code is present in the box, then the automobile was equipped with that particular option. If an option code is in red, it means it was ordered off-menu, not included in the order guide but nonetheless created. Feel free to ask any more questions. 2017 production tables for R8 in the USA 2018 production tables for R8 in the USA
  17. I would recommend selling your present automobile and walking to work as it is just 4 miles away. The health advantages will surpass any other considerations, and you may hire any brand if you decide to travel on a vacation.
  18. Icarsoft is helpful for diagnosing flaws in modules, however it lacks the capability and software for coding or reprogramming modules. To access Star / Xentry, which is not legally accessible to the public, and perform necessary coding, a connection to MB Germany must be established. If you own automobiles from different manufacturers within your family, the icarsoft Max, albeit being somewhat pricier, offers software that is compatible with several brands. Keep in mind that there are several OBD readers on the market with varying capabilities. Icarsoft is functional yet quite cumbersome to use. Is there a Mercedes independent expert located close to your home?
  19. The 'Clunker' C70 served as my off-road bicycle throughout my adolescent years, coincidentally, we lived on a farm (a recurring pattern!). Abundant enjoyment. I considered purchasing one myself with the intention of converting it into a vintage off-road bicycle. However, I was taken aback by the exorbitant pricing of these antiquated bicycles.
  20. I appreciate your suggestion about the battery pack. Additionally, any additional constructive remarks would be appreciated. Best wishes to everyone.
  21. Indeed, it aligns with my anticipated outcome. It would be advantageous to have access to the software.
  22. Indeed, I am optimistic about it.
  23. Greetings, I appreciate your prompt reply. The burden is minimal, consisting just of a compact MiFi device (a local internet hotspot). The indentation on the passenger 🚢 headrest provides an optimal location to insert the gadget, and the adjacent USB C connector would be an appropriate power source for it. Are those ports physically connected or controlled by software?
