Apologies, but I don't see any error signals on this F20 N13 engine. Can you tell me where the temperature sensor is?

To narrow things down, get it examined for codes. things might be a defective temperature sensor.

Some single-piece copies are available; they are virtually identical (with faux "bolts" around the rim) and cost a tenth of what the real thing used to cost. By the way, I was able to acquire an authentic R129 AMG accessories rear box through eBay.de — they are exceptionally uncommon because they were incredibly pricey when they were first released. Standard equipment with simple steel tailpipes facing downwards was even installed on the SL60 AMG.

Hi there, I'm crossing my fingers that this is the correct forum to publish this on. However, I am overjoyed to have just acquired an R129. Putting on a set of AMG BBS staggered alloys is something I'm really looking forward to. The Two Piece AMG wheels, I think you might say?

As long as it's not being carried by an undressed infant and it's legal, it's good.

My PCP rifle, which I use when there are rats around, would be perfect for posting if I didn't fear being banned 😂

Thank you, I get it! Should rats are present, it would be wise to prepare those peppermint oils.

It seems like there was a temporary canbus problem that prevented the startup checks from reading your turn signal. After that, it correctly read the system the following time you switched it on.

A few days ago, as I was running errands throughout the day, and as the day came to a close, the left turn signal began flashing suddenly. I hardly use them, therefore I don't think they will ever be worn. There is no rapid fire turn signal the next day. If the X3 can mend itself, please tell me.

Doesn't every service work include the replacement of sump bolts according to MB manufacturer policy? Is it a good idea to get new bolts if the old ones seize or peel easily?

It's part of the job, and it can happen to any automobile, old or new. Just ask any technician about seized, rounded, or stripped bolts. They are typically not a problem if you have the correct equipment and knowledge, provided you have at least fair access.
