Does anybody have information on the most recent upgrade for the maps? My automobile has just begun alerting me about the imposition of a congestion fee. The nearest location is around 200 km away from my current location. Interestingly, the warning only manifests when I am travelling in a northerly direction, since there is no levy on traffic congestion while heading south.

Several individuals have installed headers without catalytic converters. If I choose the R8 path, it is the course of action I would take. Uniform-length headers from Secret Weapon

The website only pertains to vehicles equipped with the latest 10-inch display, indicating that only 2024 models are likely to provide wireless projection functionality.

Control 30 may refer to circuit 30, which is a circuit that has a constant supply of electricity. This circuit might be connected to a module, thus it would be advisable to inspect the fuses.

Deciding between rebuilding or replacing - struggling with indecision
KWILB replied to SD1too's topic in General Car Chat
It is worthless. The repairs exceed the estimated cost and budget, causing lingering concerns about unresolved further problems. In today's day, there is a significant value in salvaging materials, since several components may be effectively resold. -
Regarding contemporary automobiles, the emissions testing and restrictions are entirely nonsensical. Currently, the emissions generated by tyres and brakes exceed those emitted from the exhaust. Electric vehicles (EVs) are as detrimental to the environment as internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.

I am inquiring if this situation is akin to the dieselgate scandal, when automobiles were found to be compliant with federal regulations yet exceeded the prescribed limits. I would really dislike having the automobile repaired and then experiencing a decrease in power.

Another contented driver of the e55 model who created an account only to express gratitude to the original poster. Excellent article! Upon doing an online search using the Google search engine, this particular post was shown as a result. The queue was clearly out. It was a quick and short 30-minute solution. Thank you once again! It is quite delightful to be working on a Mercedes-Benz vehicle after previously dealing with a BMW equipped with a six-cylinder twin-turbo engine. -
The acceleration time of the A45s is 3.7 seconds for the 0-60 mph speed.

Comparative motivations have no effect on me. Street racing fails to excite me. I am aware of the possessions I have and express gratitude to God every day for the good health and privilege that allow me to possess them. I am aware that there is consistently something that is quicker and better. I have a strong affection for my R8 and I would not consider exchanging it for any other vehicle save for a Jesko Absolut.

Which suspension option is better: Bilstein B6 or B8?
KWILB replied to Doncaster34's topic in General Car Chat
I have problems with broken springs using authentic MB components. The Eibach's resolved the issue "up to this point". -

KWILB replied to Doncaster34's topic in General Car Chat
I have installed Bilstein shock absorbers paired with Eibach springs. The ride quality is rather rigid, but it performs very well in high-speed corners. -
How to Remove and Install Fender Liner Bolts?
KWILB replied to norbury.brook's topic in General Car Chat
I would remove the liner and inspect the bolt attachment locations. You may need to substitute some metallic fasteners on the liner to which the bolts are threaded. I suspect that the top bolt is not completely lined with the outermost edge of the clip. Exercise caution to avoid damaging the rivnuts that are affixed to the body while handling them. I have replaced the majority of the liner and under tray bolts with titanium ones, since the current OEM bolts are prone to rusting quickly. By the way, such bolts have a size of M6x20 mm with a T30 head. I have used black titanium bolts with a head width of 16 mm. These bolts can be acquired for around $3 per unit from online marketplaces such as eBay and Aliexpress. -

Are you referring to the fact that "car play" does not work with them? It is evident that the inability to use an iPad with CarPlay integration is a unique characteristic exclusive to Apple. As I do not own any Android Tablets, I am uncertain about the compatibility of Android Auto with tablets.

Gearbox noise in the 2016 W212 350d. 96,000 miles. Complete MB SH.
KWILB replied to neilrr010's topic in General Car Chat
Is it certain that it originates from the gearbox? -
When opting for an R-Tronic vehicle, it is advisable to allocate funds for the purpose of reconstructing the R-Tronic actuator. The seals and solenoids, as well as the accumulator and pump linked to the R-Tronic system, ultimately experience failure.

Assist in Enhancing the Appearance of My Mercedes!
KWILB replied to KWILB's topic in General Car Chat
Currently, I purchase temporary insurance each time I drive. However, upon investigation, I discovered that the cost of insurance amounts to £9500 each year. Incredible... -
Greetings, everyone! I own a 2009 Pre-Facelift C200K equipped with the elegance package. (Includes Images) I received it from my father in December upon obtaining my driver's licence. I have invested a significant amount of effort on it, mostly focusing on the engine and the inside. Currently, I am eagerly anticipating enhancing the visual appeal of the outside. I am contemplating enhancing its appearance to exude a more athletic and assertive aesthetic, however I am open to any suggestions as well. However, I have limited financial resources due to my age of 17. If you have any budget-friendly external modifications (ranging from free to £40), I will certainly take them into consideration. Thank you in advance, everyone. 🙂

I suspect there may be a problem with either my phone or the automobile. I ensured that the WiFi box was selected. Despite completing all necessary steps, I am able to play music and hear audio from the phone, but unable to establish a connection for video playback using CarPlay. I will bring it to the dealership on Thursday. Thank you for attempting to assist, it seems to be disliking me already!
