I have removed the airbag and spiral components. All connections were cleaned and reassembled. Excessive work today prevents me from accessing the loom farther back, since it requires the removal of several components to lower the under-dash panel. The error was resolved without complications using my CR-Max diagnostic tool, leading me to conclude that it is an intermittent connection rather than a damaged wire at this stage.

I have examined the engine bay fuse box lid, and it lacks a fuse diagram—thank you, Mercedes, for your inadequacy. However, with the aforementioned website, I located the SRS fuses.

I am uncertain but will verify tomorrow and inform you all.

For the benefit of others, here is the PDF for the W203. Two files due to the excessive size of a single version.

Discovered information on an unfamiliar website.

Handbook has already been reviewed. It provides the locations of the fuseboxes, but lacks a fuse list

Greetings everyone, I have been experiencing intermittent high resistance issues in the driver's airbags on my 2004 W203 Coupe. Currently, it occurs around biweekly, however last week it happened every two days. It is my understanding that a new loom exists, which requires significant disassembly of the dashboard for installation. My plan is to inspect and clean the readily accessible airbag connections first. Prior to proceeding, I want to disconnect power from the SRS system while preferably keeping the battery attached for other functions. I want assistance on the placements of the fuses and relays, please.

Nothing compares to the sound of a six-cylinder diesel engine.

😁

Ensure that the wires at the +jump point are securely fastened.

Affirmative.

Inspect the grounding straps connecting the chassis to the engine. Consider connecting a jump wire from the body earth jump point to the engine

Based on recollection, I would assert that sequencing and organisation are somewhat cumbersome. Files must be written in the sequence of their intended usage. This technology is 15 years old. I prefer utilising a Bluetooth stream or a connected connection. It is user-friendly, voice-activated, and provides access to Waze, podcasts, and Spotify upon spoken request. No menus, no buttons."Hey Siri, play 'Slave to the Rhythm' by Grace Jones on Spotify."

I was considering the 510 model, I believe. The pricing seemed reasonable.

Thank you for your response. I was contemplating a diagnostic instrument. Could you kindly provide a recommendation? The vehicle does stop, but it requires a complete depression of the pedal. I completed around five instances of braking from 60 to 20 mph today. I may do this over many days and assess my status thereafter. Salutations.

Greetings, Recently, I identified a malfunctioning calliper on my BMW X3 E83 2.0, and upon further inspection, I discovered the brakes were in disarray. It is hardly unexpected, given that I just purchased it for many thousand dollars. I have replaced the brakes with new discs, pads, callipers, hoses, and handbrakes all around. I have installed everything, however I am experiencing a low brake pedal and am unable to bleed the brakes effectively. I own an ezibleed system; everything seemed satisfactory, however there was no success. The wife attempted to use the brakes, but to no avail. Gravity has not yet diminished. I now have an illuminated engine management light. The master cylinder has fluid, and I see no visible leaks. Is there anybody that can assist with this?

Greetings to everyone, My vehicle is a 2009 Mercedes W211 E280. Yesterday, the MOT failed due to a broken offside rear coil spring. I did not see any difference in driving with the damaged coil spring; is this typical? I contacted my local Mercedes-Benz dealership about both rear coil springs, and they quoted me £207 for the springs and seals. However, they do not have them in stock, and if I place an order, I will need to wait 5 to 7 days. My MOT expires on Friday; I have learnt to schedule a MOT 3 to 4 weeks in advance of its expiration. My alternative is to purchase coil springs from GSF Parts, who charged me £98 for each. The brand is Lesjofors, and I believe they do not include seals. Should I purchase them or order them from the Mercedes-Benz dealer and await their arrival? Any guidance would be much appreciated. Thank you.

These engines are regarded as very durable compared to contemporary power plants, provided they have regular oil changes and maintain an efficient cooling system; they may achieve extraordinary mileage.

The vehicle is immobile, Dave783; I am inclined to disagree.

Any alterations or noises occurring when engaging the clutch. DMFs often have a little rattling when malfunctioning. Agreement with VWDaveBMW's statement.

Good point, @Howard_silver. Personally, I always prefer seeing the car in person, taking it for a quick spin, and checking documents before making any payment. It’s not always possible, but it does save a lot of worry later. @alpaco45, do you know where they’re based?

What is the rationale for using two accounts? You installed the new pump and did not reinstall the old one.

I am really pleased by the work you perform. I like the personalised tray/charging dock. Well done!
