All Activity

I had an E92 LCI for five years, but the weather in the UK made me too chicken to ride it roof down. A bunch of young men from Eastern Europe run a barbershop, and there are a couple of black E93s parked outside. They continue to look beautiful every time I pass by.

Appointed my E93 I enjoy frittering away money for no good reason.

It might be wise to give them a call. They were incredibly helpful, and their knowledge and experience were spot on.

Thank you for responding so quickly. I will also check with Cayman Autos, as my MB technician recommended them. It is appreciated.

Because they are labour-intensive and frequently necessitate expert-level understanding, convertible roof repairs are notoriously costly. Even though I doubt these guys will be able to fix your SLK roof, I can speak from experience when I say that they are worth considering:

Hello everyone, I hope I've found the correct spot because this is my first post. Just got my third SLK R171 recently. Clean, low-mileage vehicle that has been stored in a garage for a while; now I'm trying to fix a few little things. Need someone in North London (Barnet) to tighten the gaskets and rubber seals behind the 2011 SLK's back screen. Although the gaskets and seals are in fine condition, a minor trickle remains at the point where the side seals attach to the central seal. Everything seems to be going smoothly with the drainage pipes and holes, however they may use a thorough flush. If it's required, I can work with used or non-original parts to replace the C-pillar seals and gaskets. The center piece of the seal is apparently out of stock now. I am seeking a local, affordable alternative to my regular MB independent mechanic because their costs are too high for my budget. Feel free to ask any more questions or request photographs. My deepest gratitude

Someone at Kia needs to get a handle on this.

In the sense that it appears to be activated nearly instantly upon crossing the center line, I concur with p00rmansp0rsche on that point. As if you needed more reason to keep going, here it is. The idea that a safety function may make you look away from the road is ridiculous. It is now much more important that we steer clear of the most dangerous potholes.

This is something I experience as well. Along with the "two lights on the steering column" warning, which resembles an eyeball—I'm not sure what it represents—but I certainly pay attention to the road ahead.

Similar thing happened to me yesterday; I got the notice three times in the span of thirty minutes. We got there, hung around for 45 minutes, and then it returned on the way back.

Taking the racing line on calm, winding roads is the only time I get the warning. To determine if you are getting too close to the center line, the camera is used by the car.

Nero played about as Rome burnt. The road was driven down by Niro 🤎. Do you actually have a steering wheel with two lights that look at your face, or is it merely a message that appears and may be disabled through the two-page menu?

For the life of me, I can't shake the feeling that it won't light up unless it detects reckless driving. It seems like our Niro has only received the message once. Have no idea how it settles on this particular model. It might be picking up on motions on the wheel or something else entirely if it's not detecting eye movements. Or maybe I'm mistaken.

It was the most annoying message ever. Is there anybody who knows the recommended duration of a break? After two hours in the parking lot, the notification "Your Nero car is in the garage" came up five minutes after you drove away and kept popping up every fifteen minutes until you returned home. Returning home took a solid two hours. Kia, please resolve this.

Here we have the Mercedes-Benz variant of the M271 component. Back in the day, there was a service drive to get these fitted.

I appreciate it. Please...

Both the magnets and the kits for the camshaft position sensors are available at 63motorsport. It serves as a protective barrier against oil ingress and the capillary effect of oil travelling up the car wiring harness to the ecu. It would seem that the position sensors of the camshaft are more prone to failure.

Beneath that heatshrink is effectively a Raychem solder junction. The wicking process is halted when a solder block is placed on the strands. The early M271 engine, which had issues with the camshaft adjuster magnets, was the reason Mercedes made these. Interestingly, the issue didn't arise until Mercedes abandoned the long-used configuration of their wiring plugs. Modern techniques involve crimping tiny pins to the copper strands instead of soldering them, as opposed to the previous method of using large, spherical pins. Unchecked, the oil will wick up the copper to the other end, which is shocking to some.

What kind of protection does the addition of pig tails provide against oil seepage up the wiring looms?

You are aware that heatshrink can be applied with a heat gun. 😉
