  1. Indeed, my daughter suffers from asthma; thus, I use the car's heater for around ten minutes prior to the school run in the early morning. The standard air conditioning unit is erratic, so I use the adjacent button, the maximum setting. Image contained herein. Could this be the underlying cause?
  2. Thank you. It evaporates rapidly, similar to water, and is certainly not greasy. Scuttle remains unverified; I will address it soon. Place white tissue paper below and await the opportunity to 'capture' anything.
  3. Greetings, everyone. I trust that everything is good. Recently completed significant repairs on my 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class CK 180 Kompressor. Initially seemed to be functioning OK after repairs; however, I have since seen a fluid or water stain at the inner side of the front left wheel. Initially suspected it was a leak from the windscreen washer reservoir. The system has been drained, but it continues to leak. Curious about what it may be?
  4. The automobile had initially sagged on both sides, so I scheduled an appointment. Prior to the appointment, the car had elevated and appeared satisfactory, yet was taken to the garage nonetheless. They found no faults, so I proceeded on my way. A few days later, the car experienced another breakdown, necessitating flatbed transport to the mechanic for inspection of the sagging issue. The assessment indicated that the compressor required replacement. The adjustment was completed, and upon retrieving the vehicle, the height was satisfactory.After travelling 5 miles, the chassis warning illuminated, prompting me to exit the vehicle for inspection. That is when I observed it had ascended significantly on the passenger side. The car has been parked since then and remains at that elevation. Prior to my purchase, new airbags were installed on both sides four months ago.
  5. Did the garage fail to identify any more issues during the initial inspection of the vehicle?
  6. Hello, I experienced sagging on both rear corners and took the vehicle to the mechanic. A new compressor was installed. Travelled 5 miles after retrieving the vehicle, at which point the chassis warning indicator activated. Exited the vehicle, observing that the passenger side's left rear and front are significantly elevated, while the driver's side front and rear are notably lowered. What actions has the garage failed to do to precipitate this situation?The garage has been closed for the past three days, so I will return tomorrow. Thank you
  7. Argument for being odometer tampered with or installing a mileage blocker; indeed, I will forgo it.
  8. I am not acquainted with this brand, nevertheless, I embrace the competition. I have contemplated substituting the PS4S on my Gen2 with the Continental Extreme Contact Sport 02. The Conti's have a price advantage of around $500, which is appealing. Currently, the Vredesteins are not visible on Tyre Rack. However, I am curious about their pricing.
  9. Were the wheels included as part of the original factory configuration of the automobile, or were they added as an aftermarket accessory? Are these tyre sizes the same as the original ones?
  10. I concur. While these technologies may seem impressive during the salesman's demonstration, it is worth considering if they are really necessary in practical use. It is possible that it is the lesser specification. Do you have an estimate of the potential discount I may get as a cash buyer without a trade-in?
  11. Greetings, I am interested in purchasing a Sportage with a 22 or 23 plate, however I am unsure about the specification to choose. I have test driven a Spec 4 model, which comes with several desirable features, however it is somewhat more costly compared to a Spec 3 model of a comparable age. I have disregarded the s variants since they often cost above £40k when new, which incurs additional road tax. I have also chosen to choose the hybrid option instead of the MHEV. However, it is not a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). The GT line lacks the inclusion of two 12-inch information displays. I want to purchase the item labelled as 4, but, I am sceptical that I will be able to get a satisfactory discount from the salesman to persuade me to make the purchase. Do you have any recommendations?
  12. I understand that the Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) guarantee becomes effective after the original manufacturer warranty, which lasts for 4 years or 50,000 miles, has expired. If you reach the milestone of 50,000 kilometres prior to the completion of the 4-year period, how does Mercedes ascertain this information? How is the commencement date of the CPO warranty and the expiration date of the manufacturer warranty determined? How would they be aware of my reaching 50,000 miles without my notifying them?
