  1. Past hour
  2. My research online indicated that these were tty bolts, so I appreciate your confirming that. Stretch or not, the assembly was a major letdown. It is a matter of trading standards because the dealer is also refusing to accept returns. Buddy, I really appreciate you sharing that information.
  3. Since these are not stretch bolts, you can reuse them provided you get the correct part and keep it straight. But it seems like it hasn't followed the exact fitting sequence that is required.
  4. The question I have is whether any technicians are available to provide me any advice. It just took a few hours after I bought my 2014 Outlander for the top injector to pop. During my investigation, I found that one of the three bolts wasn't even an injector bolt, the other two were twisted, and the retention bolt on the right side was missing. This shambles because the dealer just got a chain and balance shaft. Were those bolts supposed to be changed out when the chain was being worked on? 103,00 miles According to him, they can be reused, according to his "Mitsubishi trained mechanic." Apparently, that included the one that wasn't an injector bolt. Much obliged in advance!
  5. Is the water in the battery compartment of the boot related in any way? It appears unusual because I am unable to determine its source.
  6. Checked it out, mate. The battery is OK; I just got a new one.
  7. Determine the voltage of the battery.
  8. Greetings everyone, Unfortunately, my 2006 E64 does not have comfort access. The vehicle was operating smoothly; I disabled it, locked it, etc. After getting back in, I tried turning the key, but the engine still wouldn't start or crank. The symbol "key not detected" is displayed. Even with the spare key, I was unable to get the car to start today; the dashboard lights came on, but there was no symbol. Can you offer any recommendations?
  9. Yes, they should be commended. I didn't have high hopes because my previous interactions with other manufacturers were less than stellar. The response was rapid and comprehensive. Above everything else, it was successful 😄.
  10. The Mercedes Me support staff is top-notch; whenever I've had an issue, I've received prompt and informative responses: email: [email protected]
  11. It is the API level ntg6/081 version of the software. Based on what I could tell from the navigation, the original date was 2019, and the most recent upgrade was in 2019. In addition to posting here, I messaged Mercedes, and they responded with a really useful response. They claim that future over-the-air updates will not occur if there have been problems with earlier ones. Next time, the update should be automatic, but for now, I'll have to manually apply it. I now have a complete upgrade on a USB stick, and the instructions were really detailed, which is unusual these days. My next step is to locate an adaptor that will allow the USB stick to connect to the USB c port in my vehicle. Finally, I'm almost there. By the way, my car doesn't have an SD card.
  12. That will guide you step-by-step. Our vehicle can detect when an SD card is inserted with an updated map. It displays both the current version installed in the vehicle and the new version on the card.
  13. With COMAND NTG 5.5, our 2019 C Class is only pre-MBUX, but you can see the map version in the options. I believe it can be found in the Navigation menu and on the main page of the system settings. Because of how long it takes for OTA map updates to load, I usually just use Mercedes Me on my computer to download them to an SD card, and then I install them in the car that way. A USB stick might work as well, though I haven't tested that.
  14. I appreciate your response. It is a B Class from 2019. The version is unknown to me, but it's MBUX. Where can I look for this? I do in fact own the Mercedes Me app.
  15. It would be helpful if you could identify the infotainment system you have, such as COMAND MBUX 6, so we can figure out how to verify the maps version. To begin, the Datacard is an excellent choice. Additionally, the infotainment system may begin downloading when you notice an emblem like an arrow atop a vehicle, albeit this will vary from system to system. Are you also in possession of the Mercedes-me app?
  16. A fresh map update "will be downloaded automatically over the air and installed without visiting a dealer," according to an email I received from Mercedes. A comparable email has previously been sent to me. If it does occur, how can I tell? How can I determine the version number to see if it's up-to-date? I have not yet found it, despite my best efforts.
  17. Yesterday
  18. During the interior lighting upgrades I had in June, I was offered this potential option. Connecting a new module to the rear of the sat nav makes no change in terms of screen size—wired or wireless—in the absence of the module. In a nutshell, Google says it all. How to Install Android Auto with a Full Screen Smart Integration Boxes for Aftermarket Use: These covert hardware modules eliminate the need to cut wires by plugging into the rear of your original head unit. They operate in tandem to circumvent the split-screen restriction, allowing you to enjoy full-screen Android Auto on your big OEM screen. When you want to return to the original Mercedes menu, just hold down the "Back" button on the OEM controller. [1, 2, 3] OBD / Activation of Software: Expert suppliers provide OBD2 plug-in programmers or firmware upgrades that recode the COMAND NTG 5.5 unit to display full widescreen ratios if your Mercedes has factory half-screen capability enabled via USB. This business that performed my upgrades and provided full-screen Android Auto is located quite a ways from Stockport, and it would be more convenient to have it done there.

  19. My 2019 C Class, which had the previous infotainment system, COMAND NTG 5.5, is identical, thus I assume this is a part of the MB. On the other hand, someone familiar with MBUX can probably confirm. The 2020 Vauxhall that my son drives has a far more spacious Android Auto display.
  20. Greetings, I'm hoping someone can provide me a hand. I own a 2022 C43. I was wondering if anyone knows whether the Android Auto connected feature can make the Google Maps screen bigger. Apple Play and regular Mercedes-Benz satnav modes significantly enlarge the screen. Much obliged
  21. Regarding the ABS problem, I'm not sure what to tell you, but according to a reliable search engine, the following are the most common causes of the "EPS/ESP" and "ABS" lights on a Kia Venga: a broken ABS tone ring, a malfunctioning wheel speed sensor, or a problem with the battery voltage. all three Motives Commonly A malfunctioning wheel speed sensor monitors the rate of rotation of each wheel. When either of these systems fails, the other will also shut down: the stability and anti-lock brakes. 1 and 2 Damaged Anti-Lock Brake System Ring: Instead of a magnetic strip, the Kia Venga has a real metal target ring on the driveshaft. The sensor may receive inaccurate readings if these rings shatter with time. [1] Power Outage or Need to Charge Cause: A malfunctioning alternator or low battery voltage can cause a plethora of dashboard warning lights to illuminate simultaneously.
  22. There used to be a lot of knowledgeable people on this forum, but the Venga is a great automobile for older adults like my wife and me who have arthritis. Simply said, our advanced age is causing our extinction.
  23. Because a back voltage is a common symptom of a blown fuse or a jammed or gone-of-control relay in Kia electrice, you might want to check those first. It seems like the anti-lock brake system relied on a toothed wheel—which might easily get jammed or rusted—to detect the wheels' speeds.
  24. Greetings everyone, Please, I need some guidance and assistance. The ABS and ESP lights went off. The osr sensor was identified by my diagnostic scanner. Nevertheless, Google recommended disconnecting After checking the voltage at the wall outlet, the sensor indicated that 11.5 volts should be present. I measured 2.5 volts. I followed the advice on Google and checked the ABS connector beneath the glove box; it read 2.5v as well. According to Google, this might be because AB's unit is malfunctioning or the module plug is rusted. After removing the plug, I checked for rust. I double-checked the power in the same locations as my wife's car and found that it had 11.5v, just as Google had predicted. First thing I want to know is if you think there is an issue with the ABS module. A pre-owned one has been requested as a substitute. 2nd question: can I simply plug in the module without the brake line to test if the light remains off after resetting it? to hear everyone's opinions on the matter. I appreciate it.
