All Activity

Greetings everyone, I will get beneath it today or tomorrow; I haven't had the opportunity yet. That awful phone call happened on Friday night. That terrifying One. Things have been somewhat chaotic for the past several days since my brother-in-law discovered my brother's body at home. Once I've been under there, I'll upload images of what I find. Best regards

See the back subframe up close and personal while you're down there.

I was wondering if you have any news on this. Enquiring about the nature of the problem. I am grateful.

I will review the suggestions tomorrow and get back to you all with my findings.

A flexy prop shaft or joints?

It was the gearbox mount that gave me severe vibrations whether I was moving, stopped, or accelerated. As far as I am aware, they are not costly, and they are easy to replace. It would be wise to have the gearbox mount examined, albeit I cannot confirm the sounds. May it be of assistance.

I will do my best to explain this because my search on the boards has only turned up information regarding engine mounts, which I'm sure has nothing to do with what's going on here. The mileage on my 2012 C220 CDI AMG Sport, a W204, is 101,000. It cost me 79k when I got it four years ago. A clogged DPF, an injector that needed replacing, and a ruptured copper brake line in the back are just a few of the issues it has encountered. Everything is OK now, but ever since I got it, I've observed that the clutch pedal and gear knob tremble rather loudly if you really push the pedal to the floor and shift into the next gear. While this has happened a few times since ownership, the most recent occurrence was on the return trip after an 80-odd mile excursion a few weeks ago. The ride was completely uneventful, and the vibrations continued throughout the journey. It vibrates and makes a deep, metallic grinding sound at rest and throughout the rev range. The possibility that the flywheel has fallen was mentioned to me by someone. Really, all I'm asking is for some suggestions. With a young family and recently being laid off, money is tight and I don't know what to do. Is anyone else familiar with this? My first post here is a request for guidance, so please forgive me in advance. Thank you.

Is bimmercode capable of coding new headlights?

Unfortunately, that is only one of many uses for the dismal code.

When I used BimmerCode a few years ago, I believe I saw that option—something about US style marker lights or something like.

Bimmercode has a tonne of lighting choices, but I've never ever heard of that one. I will review it in a couple of days and get back to you, but someone could come in with the solution sooner.

In the Middlesex and Hayes areas, I suggest BMW Remapping. nonetheless, it is located in suburban London.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone in the SE London region knew of somebody who could code. I would prefer it if the front indicators stayed on when the daytime running lights were turned on. If I had a computer, I'd do it myself, but I don't. Alternately, would the bimmercode app and a Bluetooth obd adaptor be sufficient for this task?

I got a replacement sleeve and some Gum Gum because I cut it when removing the DPF. You won't even notice the weld. I suppose nobody will care about a well repaired exhaust system as long as the emissions are acceptable. The DPF's back is where the leak is. Also, I really doubt it's a knockoff. Since it was mostly used for highway travel (as an airport taxi), I assume it is still in fine shape. Even though it's not related to this subject, I'd still like to inspect the exhaust pressure hose.

An MoTer could reject it if it appears to have been tampered with. It may be beneficial to consult your partner for his thoughts about it. Does the DPF have that on the intake side? Because a lower differential pressure would result from that. It might lead to a highly unlikely interpretation, though. On my own, I would replace. However, you should inspect the DPF's tail pipe. I received two pairs of female and male items in my purchase. There is a female receiver on my back of the exhaust. Your V5 confirms that you have a Euro 5 vehicle, and your emissions plate details 0.1, so it must be. I purchased one in January from AutoDoc for £310.51; however, it did not fit, but it might have been adapted to suit.

If aesthetics aren't an issue, a standard mig welder blast should be enough to seal the joint.

After doing some reading, I would assume so. Mild steel probably wouldn't make it beneath the vehicle for so long. What happened to galvanised ubolt is also clear to me.

I was wondering if the DPF was made of stainless steel.

I figured it was time to rinse DPF with Wynn's fluid. It was discovered to have a hole! Check out the picture. It has me wondering whether it may perhaps produce a pressure leak severe enough to fool the computer into thinking the DPF is full. It seems to reason that a larger pressure differential will result in a larger soot calculation, and vice versa; removing part of the pressure will cause the shown difference to be larger. I have 316 electrodes at home, so I'll have to find a nearby welding shop to fix it. Alternatively, I could just buy some 304 tubing and practise on it.

Impressive, £27! The price was right. Personally, I've never changed mine. The courtesy car is incredibly important to me, therefore I hope it stays. Even though they have service available while you wait, I prefer to use the courtesy car since I can drop it off before work and pick it up after work. My current plan expires in August, but I'll enquire about renewing it; I usually choose the two-year plan, so that might be the reason for the premium price. I can't commit to anything for three or four years.

Did you enquire with the dealer?

Quite intriguing. For my 2012 C350, I am presently paying £44 a month for a three-year plan. This plan will cover just one extra service. At the beginning of 2013, the monthly cost was £27, so I decided to get a plan. It accepted payments all the way through 2016. After that, I had a £27.50/month plan for two years, and then a £36/month plan for four years. For as long as there has been an option, I have always gone with the longest plan. thought it was worth it the whole time. Whenever I needed an extension, I had to ask for it; neither my dealership nor MB UK ever suggested it. You can see that the price has gone up from £27 to £44 each month. The "replacement vehicle whilst car is in workshop" provision is no longer part of the plan, according to the MB website. There was a little fee "to cover insurance" for this, but up until my most recent visit, it was always free. It is likely to be dealership or group specific.

I have their service plan for my 2012 ML350, and it costs £49 a month for two years and two services. I have extended it three times already, and each time the price has remained the same. They are quite persistent after the second service. My estimation is that each treatment will cost £588. Everything from transaxle service fluid and filters to cabin filters, extra work when it's required, and brake fluid changes are all part of this. It seems worthwhile to me. As an added bonus, their service plan usually includes a free courtesy car, so I can simply leave my own car at the dealership and take advantage of theirs. Plus, I've utilised the free Mercedes recovery service on many occasions, both domestically and abroad, in Europe. Whenever they discover problems, I have the option to either fix them together or bring the report to another garage to have it fixed there. Because the vehicle is already in their possession, they are often willing to negotiate a lower repair price than a local garage would be willing to provide. This is because they value their company and do not want to lose customers. Keep the rental car until yours is fixed if they are unable to do it on the same day. While they were mending mine, I got a new GLC for three weeks. Now that I sound like a Mercedes salesman, I'll end here 🙂

I traded in my old automobile for a C-Class with 25 plates. I went to the Mercedes website and paid £42 for a 4-year, 2-moth maintenance package. A representative from Mercedes's Swindon office called three days after I received the email stating that the dealer will be in touch to verify my bank information and the plan. The woman who called me was confident it was legitimate since she read me all of my personal information and used my current mileage VIn number. An email outlining the entire strategy and the due date arrived in my inbox shortly after the call.
