  1. There is no spanner or wrench shown on the HUD.
  2. Hello, I have recently changed all the plugs/leads and also replaced the rocker cover gaskets. About a week later, the car's performance significantly deteriorated, with poor deceleration and idling, accompanied by the occurrence of similar error codes. I was feeling quite frustrated till I stumbled over this post while doing a Google search. I registered to express my gratitude for providing this information. Thank you for preventing me from incurring the expense of replacing the throttle body, since that was going to be my next step. Therefore, if you ever find yourself in New Zealand, I am indebted to you and will gladly buy you a drink.
  3. I am enamoured with the aesthetic appeal, auditory experience, and personal satisfaction I get from operating my vehicle. I am indifferent to who is quicker than me. I purchased it for my own satisfaction, and that is the only confirmation I want. I do not engage in the activity of playing Top Trumps.

  5. The original equipment manufacturer (OEM) damper for the S204 Mercedes is manufactured by Bilstein. Therefore, it is recommended to purchase the Bilstein damper. It is important to note that this is not just an ordinary Bilstein B4 damper, but rather a B4 DampMatic® damper. There is no need for B6 or B8.

  8. A while back, I had a similar situation where the issue was a fractured turbo boost pipe. It is a frequently seen issue with Mercedes diesel vehicles due to the deterioration of rubber pipes caused by the oil in the intake system. It would be advisable to verify. Furthermore, it is my understanding that a solid yellow check engine light indicates an emissions problem, which may be attributed to several factors such as a faulty turbo or a clogged egr valve. It is difficult to determine without a proper diagnosis.
  9. I have made purchases from both of these sources in the past without encountering any issues.
  10. I hope you will get pleasure from:D
  11. Can 3 series or 5 series floor mats be used in a 6 series? I am searching for replacement floor mats for the 6 series, however the available selection is limited. Most of the mats I choose are designed for the 3.
  12. That seemed logical to me. What leads you to believe that your gauge is not precise?
  13. On one occasion, I found myself inadvertently confined inside Hyde Park after the gates had been closed. During this incident, which occurred when I was enrolled in an A class, I managed to get a mere 10 minutes of sleep that night. Conversely, on a separate occasion when I was enrolled in a C class, I had a more restful night's sleep after being locked in, as the increased spaciousness of the surroundings allowed me to stretch out more comfortably. Could you provide me with guidance on my choice between the two vehicles? The subject matter of the post pertains to it.
  14. I am now faced with the decision of selecting between two convertible models, namely the A250 (22 Plate) and the C300 (70 Plate). I have a preference for the extended computer screen included in the A class, as it has an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Additionally, I like the compact size of this vehicle, which is accompanied by a generous amount of storage space. On the other hand, I find the C class to be more accommodating in terms of interior space, hence offering enhanced comfort. Moreover, I am drawn to the presence of wooden elements within the C class's interior design. It might be hypothesised that the power output of the A250, being a smaller automobile than the C300, would likely be similar. I often engage in long-distance driving and am now in the process of organising a road trip around Europe for the next summer season. I kindly want the advice of individuals in order to aid me in making a decision between two automobiles. Expressing gratitude is a fundamental aspect of human interaction, and I would want to extend my appreciation for your assistance.
  15. There is a possibility that the battery of my 2002 e46 Toiuring 320 D vehicle may need replacement. I received guidance indicating that it is not obligatory to do an electronic engine reset subsequent to the discontinuation of the electrical power supply.In contrast to subsequent iterations, this feature is absent. Nevertheless, it may be imperative to do a radio reset by using the corresponding code. The original code is not available; nevertheless, I conducted an online search to get the necessary steps. However, I am uncertain about the procedure for entering the information in the event that the system prompts me to do so. Assistance would be much appreciated.
  16. I recently had a genuine MB battery installed at a local independent automotive service provider. The total cost of the battery was £140, with the installation being performed free of charge. In my opinion, this price was reasonable, especially given that the previous MB battery had been in use for a remarkable 11 years. Although it is possible to find cheaper alternatives, the extended lifespan of the previous battery indicates its quality and durability. Furthermore, coding was not required.
  17. I conducted an online search for a preloaded image on Google, which was found to be reasonably priced and suitable for dealer fitting.
  18. I like the use of puddle lights due to their superior functionality compared to alternative brands.
  19. It is plausible that Mazda might achieve success if they were to really endeavour in the aforementioned pursuits.
  20. It is likely that Mazda might achieve success if they were to make a genuine effort in implementing them.
