  1. I can now see all the images in your first post.
  2. The Mk2 Tiguan forum uses the Xenforo software from Verticalscope, and I have no issues with images on that site.
  3. Regrettably, I am now unable to see any of the photographs.
  4. Is there a specific reason why I can see the other photographs in your post but have an issue with the first photo? It seems to be occurring on many posts lately.
  5. Have you inquired about the price of a whole new trim item from Mercedes-Benz? It's worth a try, since they may be surprising in both positive and negative ways. Typically, a new component will arrive with the tape pre-attached. They did so when I purchased B pillar coverings from MB.
  6. To remove the trim, you will likely need to use professional-grade double-sided tape as previously suggested. Some individuals have used it for installing boot lip spoilers; someone knowledgeable will provide advice shortly.
  7. Keep us informed on your progress. I have not received the job for the can I purchased yesterday yet, but I am certain I will get one shortly.
  8. I am not familiar with AC90, however I recently purchased a can for £8 from Amazon. Thank you for the advice, Blu_Ray_UK2007
  9. It is conceivable, but you should have seen signs prior to the failure, such as a low coolant level if the EGR failure resulted in a coolant leak, or rough running/idling.
  10. I feel that baby wipes are really effective for cleaning a wide range of objects, therefore they are definitely worth trying. I would refrain from immediately applying any substances onto the buttons. However, it is quite likely that used car sellers would use more forceful methods while cleaning vehicles compared to individual owners.
  11. In my opinion, there are three alternatives available to you: 1. Contact the dealer to ascertain the specific actions they are taking (likely none), the estimated time for the repair, verify that it will be covered under warranty, and inquire about the availability of a courtesy vehicle. If, as anticipated, this issue was caused by water infiltration, it is probable that it has already dried out. In this case, the technicians will not be able to repair it directly, but they will reset the error codes and return the device to you. If possible, get a hard copy of the trouble codes for future reference. 2. Reach out to KCS and inquire about your vehicle, inquire about any comparable issues, and inquire about the possibility of expediting the process. 3. In the case of a leased vehicle, it is advisable to reach out to the leasing company and request their assistance. Since they are obligated to supply you with a working automobile, they have some responsibility for repairing it. At the very least, they may be able to provide some assistance.
  12. Brake Hold is also included in several newer automobile models, such as our 2019 C Class. However, I have never had a car, regardless of its age, manufacture, size, or engine type, that did not go forward in drive without the application of some kind of brakes, unless it was on an incline.
  13. Utilise your preferred search engine to do a search for the term "toffee wheel". Undoubtedly, the most efficient and easiest method to eliminate any residual wheel weight.
  14. Fortune favoured you. Upon returning my Chinese shock mounts, the individual at the parts shop informed me that it is a matter of chance. Occasionally, one may get residual German-made components, while other times, fresh Chinese stock is provided.
  15. I am uncertain about the shocks, but I am mostly referring to the other components of the suspension system such as arms, tie rods, and bushings.
  16. I just purchased front shock mounts and saw that both of them were labelled as "Made in China."
  17. Lemforder's current quality standards have declined compared to its previous reputation. However, there is a possibility of obtaining older stock parts that were built in Germany, known for their exceptional durability. However, the majority of it is now manufactured in China and is of poor quality.
  18. That would be a substantial challenge to overcome; I would certainly get a quotation from a trustworthy independent mechanic or engine expert.
  19. It is advisable to apply lubrication to the door hinges in order to ascertain if they are the origin of the auditory disturbance.
  20. The only common concern that comes to mind is the occurrence of diminished voltage in the battery. However, it is important to note that the likelihood of success is uncertain, since the presence of low battery voltage might potentially lead to a range of other complications. It is important to have the fault codes examined in order to address the issue effectively. It is advisable to transport the vehicle to an autonomous expert who has STAR certification. In addition, the acquisition of an iCarsoft MB v3.0 is recommended for those with intentions of maintaining their vehicle over an extended period of time.
  21. It is important to consider that the provided information pertains just to the production date of the filter. Determining the precise timing of the car's installation is impossible without possessing the vehicle from its first acquisition. The object in question may have been stored on a shelf within a container, remaining untouched and accumulating dust for a number of years, until it was eventually installed onto the vehicle. If the automobile was purchased as a pre-owned vehicle, it is plausible that the installation of some components may have occurred shortly before the purchase transaction took place.
  22. Which component are you referring to, the fuel filler flap or the tank recess containing the diesel and ad-blue filling holes? There exist two distinct components, and it is essential to accurately identify the appropriate segment based on the location of the division. In the provided diagram, the component labeled as #220 corresponds to the gasoline filler cap, while Part# A 25 375 704 00 designates a specific part inside the system. The tank recess containing filling holes is identified as #200, whereas Part # A 25 363 017 02 corresponds to a specific component. The provided part numbers correspond to a GLC 220d vehicle with the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) beginning with 253 904, as seen in the figure below.If I were in your situation, I would recommend visiting the authorized dealer and placing an order for the required component, providing them with your vehicle's registration or vehicle identification number (VIN). It is unlikely that you will find a much lower price anywhere.
