  1. I posted a video of Legitstreetcars; you should watch it. You can see the oil can that Alex uses.
  2. https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=legitstreetcars+ABC+mercedes+benz.&mid=3F41AF2B01B80C64074F3F41AF2B01B80C64074F&FORM=VIRE
  3. An ex-MB technician named Alex from legitstreetcars.com is currently tackling a V12. You may find his work on the ABC system and how to remove and strip down an engine to replace a £1 'o' ring in his content. Although you can jump to the parts concerning ABC, it is worth watching all of his films that deal with the CLK. Not everyone is brave enough to deal with issues with earlier ABC systems. My wish is that you uncover the truth.
  4. Prior to purchasing the vehicle would have been the ideal time to accomplish this. Expensive European vehicles often undergo what is known as a Pre-Purchase Inspection. Having the software updated, recalls and service bulletins executed, oil changed, etc., might be arranged at this stage by contacting a Mazda dealer. They should be able to tell you whether the vehicle has been recalled or serviced in accordance with service bulletins, though I'm not sure if they can provide you with any history on the vehicle.
  5. Simply put, 51 psi is the maximum level that I am aware of. For the majority of my vehicles, I aim for a pressure of 40 psi, even if the tyre manufacturer recommends a maximum of 50 psi. Thank you for responding, though; it might be useful to others.
  6. Put it in charge for a day and see its performance. 👍 The stop-start auxiliary capacitor pack can be in your possession as well. Behind the shifter
  7. I recall this being a source of frustration during my experience. I believe I sufficiently depressed the knuckle for the strut to rest atop it, albeit at an incorrect angle for insertion into the hole, and subsequently employed a wooden piece with the jack beneath it to elevate the bottom section of the strut until alignment was achieved. Required several attempts and considerable exertion!
  8. Valve stem oil seals, as a general principle.However, verify the level of the brake fluid reservoir. Conduct a cylinder pressure test; it will determine whether the issue lies with the rings. However, given your low mileage, it is unlikely.
  9. Similar like you, I will not alter the original Rocket until it fails me. I will acquire a Bosch or Yuasa battery, as these are the recommended replacements from other users.

  11. Instead of visiting the Kia dealership. Simply purchase a battery online and install it yourself. Possessing a battery booster will enable you to proceed if the battery becomes depleted. For instance, Aldi and Lidl also offer them at different intervals.
  12. My vehicle is a Sport model, equipped from the factory with AMG wheels, mats, bumpers, and sills; however, it is not an AMG. Only vehicles designated with two-digit identifiers, such as C63, E63, C43, and A45, should bear the AMG badge. No AMG badge should be present on three-digit models like E350, ML270, or C250; if they do, they are not factory-issued.
  13. It is an AMG line, nothing remarkable, my friend.
  14. It is necessary to read the fault codes and inspect the boost pipes for any splits.
