  1. 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.
  2. It is clear, thank you. Then, what problems did you encounter?
  3. It was completely fake. They still haven't revealed the source, but I'm guessing Aerosus.
  4. On the left side of the back of my 2013 E63 estate, I could hear a knocking sound. After I brought it to a nearby MB specialist, they advised me to get a new shocker. I got the shocker changed, but on the drive home I discovered that the adaptive suspension button was frozen on one light, making it impossible to manipulate. Returned it, and he informed me that they are unable to reprogram the level sensor at this time. So I scheduled the installation of a new level sensor. However, after they finished the job, he contacted me to inform me that they had encountered a another issue—the right shocker's valves were no longer functioning. He then informed me that I also needed a shocker on that side since the adaptive suspension was still not functioning properly. When I returned home and checked on the vehicle the following day, I noticed that the suspension had significantly lowered. Before now, I've never experienced this issue. Is there something suspicious going on here, or is this just a coincidence? I am grateful.
  5. A jack and wheel brace are standard equipment in neither my A Class nor the other person's. The air pump and the bottle of worthless stuff are all you get. A spare doughnut wheel, jack, and wheel brace were all things I bought for both of them. It is not in my interest to be stranded, retrieved, or held to ransom by a tyre manufacturer that does not even carry my tyre size. After a puncture, I did in fact use the spare doughnut wheel that I had bought for the A class. I'm really grateful that I had it on hand because getting a matching tyre was a two-day ordeal.

  7. Connected directly to the body, my components are on fuse 6, which is for accessories, and fuse 9, which is for battery positive. Used the companion app to adjust my dashcam's parameters.
  8. I will snap a picture of my wiring after Mrs. returns from taking the car. A hardwire kit was purchased for my gku dashcam. My battery's positive terminal is yellow, and the red wire is an accessory.
  9. One of the spare fuses is an accessory that turns on just when the engine is turned on, and I utilised the other spare, which is a permanent 12-volt, to power everything. I haven't had any issues with the battery warning since I changed mine from 24-hour recording to recording only when the car is hit.

  11. During my own work on this, I recall feeling confused and frustrated. I had to twist and push in order to fully retract the piston using the tool. I don't quite recall the exact steps, but it seemed like pushing it to its maximum potential, screwing it in half a turn, pushing some more, etc.
  12. Not very essential if you don't have a spare tyre. The used wheel and jack that I purchased on eBay cost me £105.00.
  13. With the 19-inch wheels, I have a preference. 19500 miles in approximately 7 months with all four bearings ranging from 6 to 7/32nds. Here we have the Toyota Open Country. Tires are not terrific, but I expect them to last 40,000 miles.
