I acknowledge your issue; but, at present, that is the sole manual I am aware of that provides coverage. By joining the 'official' club, the Mercedes-Benz Club, members gain access to the Mercedes-Benz Workshop Information System (WIS) and the Electronic Parts Catalogue (EPC), which are the same resources utilised by the dealer network. Mercedes-Benz permits this exclusively to one 'official' club in each country.

The handbook can be ordered online from the Haynes website; refer to the link below.

It is uncertain if this information will be beneficial, but when my MAF sensor was offline due to a missing fuse, a prominent characteristic was difficult upshifts. If your vehicle is an automatic and you are encountering the same issue, it likely indicates a malfunctioning MAF sensor. - presuming that MB configures the transmission ECU to default to elevated line pressures in the absence of MAF sensor data, as observed in my 4L 80E.

Petroleum and H2O. Change the oil more frequently than the suggested interval. Subsequently, conduct a search on Google for the remaining aspects.

@pharmoun, don’t stress too much mate. When I bought my 3008, the delivery was delayed by a couple of days too, their lorry had broken down somewhere near Cardif. My car eventually turned up on day 11, and everything was perfect sometimes these things just happen with multi-drop deliveries.

They only take bank transfers, but it’s through that segregated company account I mentioned. i double-checked with my solicitor first, and he said it’s covered under the new uk banking refund protection scheme since October 2024, banks have to refund victims of authorised payment scams up to £85,000 that gave me some peace of mind before sending the money.

Hi @Ken_Lion, I actually purchased a 2019 Peugeot 3008 from Glenside Logistics a few months ago it was my first time buying a repossessed car, and I was hesitant at first too. What convinced me was their 10 days return policy and that the payment went into a segregated holding account, not directly to the company.

I have a Fitcam scheduled for tomorrow. The video quality may be suboptimal, but I aim to get some form of documentation in the event of a problem, and I like that it preserves an OEM appearance.

I have just purchased the BM6 from AliExpress for £17.42 and am eager to test it.

We plan to retain our KIA for approximately 20 years. Contemporary electric vehicles are capable of lasting a minimum of 200,000 kilometres. Our yearly depreciation will exceed £1,000. We retained our previous VW Passat diesel estate for 26 years, with the final battery enduring for 8 years. Kia dealerships may impose a fee of approximately £200 for the replacement of the 12-volt battery in the EV6. Do you not advise testing it independently with my own multimeter? I fail to comprehend the rationale of substituting objects prior to the conclusion of their functional lifespan. If I schedule an appointment with a Kia dealer and they confirm that the battery is now functioning adequately, should I express my preference to invest in a new battery now, or should I defer this decision for another six months and have it re-evaluated by the dealer then?

The BM6 appears aesthetically pleasing, and the battery life remains satisfactory after four years. I will likely acquire one.

My KIA EV6 will reach four years of age next January, and I am quite apprehensive that the 12-volt battery may be nearing the conclusion of its functional lifespan. Batteries are more prone to failure in cold winter conditions. Replacing it promptly with a new one would be imprudent. They are somewhat costly to replace and 2. Contingent upon its prior existence, it may endure for an additional year or two. I possess a multimeter and am considering either leaving the battery cover off the 'frunk' during winter for expedited battery voltage checks or purchasing a Bluetooth battery monitor for approximately £25. What dissuaded me is the recommendation to affix them to the top of the battery, and presumably, one would then detach them upon battery failure. It is also improbable that it will be necessary during the initial years of the new battery's lifespan. What actions do other electric vehicle users undertake? Do they only await the failure of the 12-volt battery?

I find myself in a same circumstance. Additionally, affection in Minnesota.
