  1. Good day, My advice would be to invest in a code reader, but I'm not much of a help. In all likelihood, you will have the opportunity to retrieve codes at some point. Taking chances and exchanging components can turn into a costly pastime!
  2. The zebra crossing is cool. Once the zebras enter the frame, the MB logo gradually becomes visible. Fun for a while. Compared to my previous vehicle's led ILS system, the digital lights are a huge improvement. By projecting messages onto the road, they draw attention to possible hazards. When following a vehicle, the "black out" around the vehicle in front of you and the separation from oncoming traffic are much easier to see.
  3. My 2025 S206 comes with the digital lights option. Choose from a variety of personalised startup screens. My grandkids love to watch the scary spider projection as they go to sleep. I park the car 20 to 30 feet away from the side fence so they can use the remote control to open the car from the comfort of their bedroom. As a spider descends into the projected image, a spiderweb is lit up by the lights.
  4. It is impossible to detect odours via the internet. Uncertain about how anyone might assist.
  5. There will be a lot of fellow frugal people in the cheapest ones. 🙂
  6. I have scheduled an appointment with Ford on Thursday for a second opinion; I will inform you of the outcome. I appreciate it.
  7. I installed a new expansion tank and a new cap from Ford last Friday. What is occurring is utterly foolish. Rearranging a pressure assessment once more. I appreciate it.
  8. Affirmative. Conducted a coolant pressure assessment with the engine at elevated temperatures, maintaining a pressure of 10 psi. We are conducting an additional pressure test to verify that nothing was overlooked.
  9. I have no clue regarding the whereabouts of the coolant! We discovered that the pipe connecting the thermostat to the expansion bottle was defective!! I substituted it; I will ascertain today (Sunday) whether the pipe is the culprit!! I appreciate it.

  11. Greetings. I possess a 2015 ST diesel engine with 185 horsepower. Encountered a problem with coolant loss; replaced the radiator, EGR cooler, thermostat, and installed a complete timing belt kit, utilizing entirely new components. When driven normally, it operates well; however, under aggressive driving, it overheats and continues to lose coolant, despite a pressure test indicating the head gasket is intact. Has anyone encountered this? I appreciate it.
  12. Purchasing an inexpensive charger might ultimately be more costly; I would recommend opting for a product offered by your energy provider to ensure reliable support in case of any issues. If your energy provider does not present a favourable offer, simply switch to one that does; it is not as if you are experiencing a complete charger malfunction that requires immediate resolution. Examine the offerings of EDF, Octopus, and others, then conduct a comparative analysis of their energy tariffs, including the daily fee (I utilised an Excel spreadsheet for this, and it clearly indicated the most advantageous option at that time; I am uncertain if it remains so and need to reassess.) I would dedicate some time to exploring all your alternatives; it may be somewhat tedious, yet it is quite gratifying in numerous ways when you can distinctly observe your savings. If you wish to transition to Octopus, I possess a referral code that will provide us each with £50 in credit.
  13. It is advantageous if your energy provider can facilitate integration into their systems, allowing you to utilise it as a smart charger; otherwise, it is not significantly superior to a conventional charger.
  14. If it is located in the garage, an untethered option might be acceptable, but verify the extent to which the plug protrudes from the charger; otherwise, you may inadvertently collide with it for the next decade. My charger resides in the garage, and I opted for a tethered solution, routing the cable beneath the garage door to a Type 2 holster affixed to the wall, which is quite tidy.
