Wiper Blade Situation

Hello all, I have had a sl500 for about 2 months. I have had no issues with the wiper blade. Today I went driving in the rain for about 20 minutes. Before I reached home, I noticed the wiper was starting to get crushed against the A pillar. Then it fell off. I had to pull over and get it. Now when I put it back on, it seems 2 inches too long. I know the wiper blade for a 1994 sl500 is 22 inches, and that is what I have. SO why is it hitting the slide and why was it getting bent on the side... Wiper Blade Situation

C55 Power Steering Issue

Hi all, Purchased a 2005 C55 a few months back. It had a pulsation in the steering wheel unlike anything I had ever felt in any other car. Here are the steps taken since: 1. Full power steering fluid flush w/ lubricant (didn't fix issue) 2. Replaced pump reservoir (didn't fix issue) 3. Replaced pump (new) and rack (Bosch reman unit). (Issue was much improved but the pulsation still happens. Most noticeable when holding the wheel steady at 11 or 1 o'clock through a gentle curve). I read at... C55 Power Steering Issue

W209 skid plate

I purchased an 08 clk 550 almost 3 yrs ago. At the time of purchase, I had gone over the vehicle with reasonable care but did miss one important item. Apparently, the PO had driven over a curb as I later had to replace a lower control arm and a cracked rim. Also I had noticed the front and rear splash shields were missing. In checking the catalogue and reviewing several videos, I can easily order and replace these parts .However there is also a skid plate which i can not seem to locate on... W209 skid plate

Transmission slipping or not changing gears smoothly

I just purchased a 2015 s63 mag with 52k Mike's. I noticed it doesn't always smoothly roll from park. I have to step on throttle to move forward; is this normal? It is a heavy car. Today, in cold weather the car was in comfort mode and wouldn't shift from 2nd gear and the tachometer was well over 2500 rpm. mid something wrong or is this normal?

OM642 Timing Chain Replacement

Hello All... I just recently had my timing chain replaced... it needed to be done. I was getting the 2 to 3 second rattling noise at cold starts which, from what I researched, is the timing chain tensioner going bad and stretching the chain. In addition, this job has never been done on my car. I purchased the car used (1 previous owner) and have the Mercedes service records that match mileage up to when I purchased the car and it does not have this ever being done. I took it to a local...

Wiper Blades - Bosch Aerotwin?

I have recently bought a pair of Bosch Aerotwin blades for my '04 Jaguar XJR and I was very impressed. Now driving the 560 SEL and realized that I have not put any blades on this car since purchasing it 4 years ago - and it needs them\ badly. I found this - 22" pair Bosch-Aerotwin-3397118933 - it is not clear if it will fit our cars. Any one with any experience with the Bosch Aerotwin? Thanks.

Which way to turn emergency brake Star wheel

Right now I am trying to tighten the emergency brake on a 1979 450 SL with an anti-squat rear end. I believe that the anti-squat aluminum control arms have the star in a different place than standard stamped steel control arms. I saw that I had taken notes of which way to go on my 1985 to 80 SE four-speed W1 26. The directions were up and down. I documented that in the thread I have on that car.

Sunroof motor continues after it's closed

I've notice that when I'm closing the sunroof on my 85 300D, the motor continues after the sunroof has completely closed and it's not a nice sound. is this the sign of a faulty switch on the dash or some kind of relay at the motor itself? for now I get around it for now by closing the sunroof to within an 1" then tapping the switch until I hear the sunroof go into it's fully closed position otherwise I fear snapping the cable.

85 coupe wires in door?

New member first post. Servicing inside the door I came across a round 3 wire connector that looks factory installed but there's nothing to connect it to. my guess is it's for something European like a light that comes on when the door is open. Any ideas? I'm thinking of using them to add a remote electrical door lock system as it saves time running new wires

G500 vs G550

Good day all I have found a good deal on a 2009 G550. I wanted to know if it shares standard parts with the G500 or am I going to face parts finding problems? I am in a place where the base market specs are euro specs. I read that the G550 is the G500 of the US market. Just wanted to have views. Thanks K Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

DIY tips for Flex Disc's

Hi all, I just replaced both the front and the back flex disc's today and prior to doing it I hunted around to get a DIY for R129's but never did find any - (Maybe I did not look hard enough). I replaced them because they had hairline cracks near where the bolts attach and I did not want to take any chances. Both my front and back had cracks so I did them both. I was not noticing any noise or clunks or vibrations - but upon close inspection I could see the cracks and cracks are bad! In... DIY tips for Flex Disc's

Lost Battery - Now an ECU Reset is Needed?

Hi all, I made the mistake of leaving the car stationary with the battery connected for too long. The battery was pretty old I think, and I lost it. The car would not crank.

And the next day, the car would not crank again. Alternator is OK by the way, as the voltage of the battery goes up while it is... Lost Battery - Now an ECU Reset is Needed?

Troubleshot - gunky oil

Went to check my oil / add more... Car had a recent oil change but the dipstick showed low so I opened to add more and noticed this gunky look to it all. Any ideas what it could be? Looks like water got in the oil or something... in which case most likely head gasket issue? Any advice would be much appreciated.

'88 560SL - Replacing 'A' pillar weatherstripping

I need to replace 'A' pillar weather stripping seals on both driver and passenger sides. The MB original equipment product is super expensive. I have also read that people are generally unhappy with aftermarket products for this repair. But I thought I would take a shot at putting the question out there. Anyone have a recommendation on aftermarket 'A' Pillar weatherstripping seals that are of acceptable quality based on your experience.

Hi. I installed an aftermarket central locking in my 97' S320. The car locks and unlocks perfect, but it will not start with the new aftermarket key (With the correct cut), only start with the original key. Is my key programed with inmobilizer or something? What can i do so i can use the new aftermarket key only?

Do I need a completely new grille??

Hi All! I just picked up this lovely 1999 CL600 and it needs some light TLC. Namely, a missing slab in the grille. Im trying to avoid buying a totally new grille if I can since $350 seems to be the average price. The slats in the grille seem to be able to pop in and out. Anyone can direct me to where I can tighten up this beauty??

9” round lights in top corner of cab, not facing up

Facing down, so yes, they will be in the field of view when mounted.

These would mount on a tree cage, or similar, and obfuscate about a 6" radius out of the visible area. My rough testing says this is not an issue for visibility, but I would like opinions.

pukeing oil around filter

Well my first try at an oil change didn't go so well. Seconds after starting the engine afterwards oil spewed out around the bottom of the plastic filter-can soaking the front of the engine and serpentine belt as well as the floor. I would estimate about a quart escaped in an impressive lubricant fountain focused in the direction of the cooler. The O-ring did appear to be pushed out there although I only installed it hand tight. Using the Mann filter I replaced all three of the O-rings... pukeing oil around filter

Plugged EGR valve tube

Hi all! I took my valve cover off to begin respraying it due to paint blistering and as I was working in the engine bay I noticed that the EGR valve's tube near the valve's end has been plugged!! One of its previous owners must have done it for some reason. I'm just curious, does anyone know what can result from the EGR valve tubing being plugged? Cheers ✌

2006 W219 CLS500 ABS ESP Limp Mode

History: I bought this car 4 months ago with 67,000ish miles on it,and it seemed fine. After driving a couple days I got errors for ESP and ABS and the car went in to limp mode. A quick scan at the autoparts store showed code P0600 After reading the forum, I replaced the brake light switch and the problem went away. One week later, a dump truck started dropping rocks in the road and I hit one with the front passenger tire. I destroyed the tire and bent the rim. It also caused a leak in the... 2006 W219 CLS500 ABS ESP Limp Mode

ANOTHER FUTURE MB TRUCK CONCEPT

Yeah...well these are just 'lines on paper' until somebody builds them. It looks like this thing can serve as a school bus for Farm Kids, if the dustbowl returns, if the one sketch is any indication. You can also slack off in futuristic comfort and ignore your Algebra lesson as you travel to somewhere. [ATTACH... ANOTHER FUTURE MB TRUCK CONCEPT

New Mercedes added to the family!

Hi guys, Just picked this one up today and yes it is very dirty. We are getting killed with single digit temps and snow so can't wash it just yet. It is a 2013 S550 4Matic with Sport Package and 61K miles. Drove it home from 3 hours away and just got home. Had been looking for a while and finally came across this one. It definitely needs some TLC but overall decent condition. [ATTACH... New Mercedes added to the family!

Akebono brake pads front and rear

Can anybody suggest an alternative to Akebono brake pads for my 1992 230te wagon (running a 3L 606 turbo). I am hoping to fit my newly refurbished Ronal Pentas in the spring and dont want brake dust all over them and the Akebono pads seem to be the way to go. Eur423 on the front and Eur495 on the back. The E Bay supplier is dtautoparts1 in the US side of the pond and with postage and import tax it comes to £137.00, ouch!. Is there a ceramic brake pad supplier in the UK?

Happy New 2021!

Greetings all! I just wanted to say Happy New Year! I'm still around, haven't been having too many issues with my 1987 Benzo which is a blessing. The last thing I had to get for her was a new Interstate Battery about 2 months ago. I feel great to still have my 1987 Benzo after 20 years, she has about 365,000 miles on her now and still rolling strong. She got a good daily workout for 18 years straight driving back and forth to work 50 miles a day. I don't miss those days!!! Since i'm now... Happy New 2021!

Question about missing cargo floor plate covers

Hi, I am missing the two cargo floor plate covers (parts 163-920-08-86 and 163-920-07-86) on my 2004 ML 350. I can order new anthracite ones for around $465 (OMG!). But what I am curious of is whether or not the carpet is attached to the plastic plates with glue or some other method. I may just buy the wrong color plates for a lot cheaper and take the carpet off so they are just black plastic. Any thoughts or experience with this? Thanks...

M112 Engine

Does anyone one know where I can find a cheap used M112 Engine. Or a tech in the chicagoland area that can rebuild one that one won't break my pocket. Thanks in advance.
