The air bags can be replaced on your own, according to what I've read. How about the valve block and pipes? Oh, and I used to build a Cobra using an RV8 engine that I rebuilt myself. I also have a great assortment of ramps, trolley jacks, axle stands, and tools. Am I too old to do this? I'm 72 years old now. Your responses are greatly appreciated.

Many thanks. It seems like you might aim the parts cannon at it. I am unsure as to whether the airbags on the left and right side are connected. Why does the car fall uniformly on both sides if one airbag or pipe is leaking? Assuming they are on distinct ones.

I let my car sit for a few weeks without driving it, and when I got back, the rear suspension had fallen entirely. It hadn't done it in five days, but now it did it again. Starting the engine causes the suspension to pump up and remain in that position. Once it has landed, it will be level on all sides. Is anyone able to explain what's going on?

I would strongly advise you to begin by obtaining a written copy of the warranty terms and conditions (e.g., a PDF download link). T&Cs will be in writing even for a Goodwill warranty. The next thing I'd do is get the paint warranty paperwork; I'm sure it's there. In my experience, MB is not forthcoming with this information; instead, customers are told various things when they ask about the warranty, and this is all done orally.

Unfortunately, this is a typical problem with MBs that have solid red paint. According to other users, MB has said that their new paint guarantee is for 6 years. Unfortunately, I couldn't locate this information in writing. It is not guaranteed, but some members were successful in getting MB to provide a free bare-metal respray (excluding bumpers and other plastic trim components). I can only assume that selling the automobile in its present state would result in a substantial loss; if MB is unsuccessful, you may pursue other legal options, such as the courts or the ombudsman.

Thank you for that. Which section is correct?

Greetings, I seek counsel from all.I recently had a new exhaust installed; upon completion, the idle was irregular, however it performed adequately when driving.I have recently installed new spark plugs and coil packs, nevertheless the issue persists. Any suggestions?

Antiquated in both respects 😄 Thank you for that; I will provide feedback as I get the opportunity to review it.

I never considered checking behind the seat to see whether a cable had become dislodged. I will examine it tomorrow. I own a code reader; however, I have not yet connected it, since I believe it is only a low-quality device I inadvertently obtained. I will also attempt to use it. Will these sensors be easily replaceable? What is PAsoft?

Does anybody understand why my airbag indicator remains illuminated after the removal and reinstallation process? I unplugged the battery, removed the airbag to repair the steering wheel, and reinstalled it; nevertheless, the airbag light remains lighted. I am uncertain of its relevance, however I inadvertently reclined the seat completely while attempting to access the area under the dashboard. Thank you for your assistance.

I scheduled a health examination for £30 at MB Hemel Hempstead. It is in two weeks. These vehicles consistently present concerns!

Greetings everyone, I encountered the subframe problem and delved further into it. I ponder why some vehicles seem to be impacted while others are not; were the subframes manufactured at distinct facilities to varying standards, resulting in a matter of fortunate or unfortunate luck? I own a 2013 W212 facelift with 100,000 miles, consistently parked outside, and it has no MOT warnings. Do you believe it is beneficial to have Merc do a visual health assessment? The corrosion seems to begin inside, leading me to question the efficacy of a visible health assessment.
