  1. Attempt this location Inlet port shut off motor delete (CDI2) - Mercedes-Benz Owners' Forums
  2. From my understanding, the recommended procedure is to charge the Auxiliary battery located in the trunk. This battery is specifically built to refill the starting battery while driving, in case the alternator has not generated enough power to restore the energy used during the start. The Aux / Consumer battery bears the whole burden of powering the roof, HVAC, and daily operations. It seems logical that MB would have designed the system in such a way that just one battery, namely the larger Consumer battery, needed to be charged from an external source. Are you removing the battery because you are unable to connect it to a cable? Removing the battery generally poses the danger of resetting the increasingly complex circuitry. In modern vehicles, including maybe this one, the car's system requires accurate information on the battery's charge level in order to charge it appropriately. This necessitates a series of complex procedures, which implies that newer automobiles may need adjustments to accommodate a new battery. (There are more knowledgeable electrical professionals who are welcome to provide their insights on the specific causes, which are typically above my level of expertise.) Generally, it is preferable to connect the battery charger / conditioner to the automobile via a cable, rather than removing the battery.
  3. Utterly ordinary. This topic has been extensively debated on this platform. If an R230 is not used for a month, there is a little but continuous loss of power, known as phantom drain. In this case, the Auxiliary battery will be depleted first in order to save the starting battery. By driving the vehicle for around ten miles, the Auxiliary battery will regain functionality, allowing you to operate the hood, air conditioning, and other components. The next step is to thoroughly recondition and recharge your auxiliary battery in order to determine whether it can be completely charged once again. If the condition is too poor, it may need a replacement auxiliary battery. However, if you, like the majority of SL users, are not using the SL for an extended period of time, it is necessary to consistently charge or trickle the auxiliary battery.
  4. Alternatively, you may contact Anthony at GAD located in Burnham on Crouch. Additionally, has extensive knowledge about these automobiles. He has successfully completed many tasks for me, consistently meeting my expectations.
  5. Without a thorough examination, it is only conjecture. Hopefully, it will not result in a disastrous collapse. Please provide us with the findings of the inspection. 👍
  6. Uncertain about the reason why the battery may no longer possess an adequate amount of charge? Were there any battery warning indicators prior to this? An engine that is out of control may result in significant destruction, however the extent of the damage may be limited if the length of the incident is relatively brief. It is possible that the issue was caused by a malfunctioning fuel injector that was stuck in the open position, resulting in an excessive flow of gasoline. Turbochargers have the ability to be reconstructed, whereas exchange units refer to turbochargers that have already been reconstructed. At the very least, they should be equipped with new seals and bearings. Regardless of the nature of the issue, it requires recovery for the purpose of research.
  7. The majority of contemporary diesel engines are equipped with variable vane turbochargers and lack a waste gate. The presence of smoke and an increase in engine speed indicate a potential failure of the Turbocharger seal, which may be causing the ingestion and combustion of oil.
  8. Apply heat to the badge using a hair dryer and use dental floss to sever the adhesive tape. Conclude the process by using a substance such as Sticky stuff remover to eliminate any residual glue. The age of the automobile may result in a variation in hue.
  9. These automobiles are exceptional. The service history is rather incomplete, but the vehicle is still being maintained by the major dealer network. The most recent service included extra maintenance tasks, which is a favourable indication. Harnessing the power of the force.
  10. I had a similar issue, which was resolved by replacing the batteries. Additionally, these automobiles are not well-suited for short journeys.
  11. There may have been a previous article on this platform or another website on the successful replacement of a C Class steering wheel. It would be advisable to do a thorough search to get more information.
  12. I assume that you have really replaced it with a lower-quality version and need to go back to the original wheel.
  13. That would render it unlawful for road usage and it is also necessary for the regeneration of the diesel particulate filter (DPF). To ensure certainty, you would need to block it off.
  14. The 2018 AMG line A205 has a 9G gearbox, which generally performs well. However, it may sometimes have some indecisiveness, but overall it provides a smooth and polished driving experience. The inclusion of flappy paddles adds a practical advantage. The ride height of this particular model of the C Class is below average, but it contributes to the car's overall flair. Additionally, there are no difficulties with the car's grounding.
  15. The idle spark plugs should be checked for proper gaps or replaced and subsequently inspected, along with the coil packs. I would begin with the plugs and proceed thereafter.
  16. An alternative approach involves connecting a Bluetooth transmitter to the cigarette lighter socket and adjusting the radio frequency to match the device's frequency. This allows for the streaming of music from a Bluetooth device, such as a digital player or mobile phone, for a cost of less than £20.
  17. My glove box is located on the right side, however it is a 2003 model.
  18. I recommend refraining from making conjectures (which is the extent of our capabilities) and having the vehicle scanned (ideally using Star) to get the trouble codes.
  19. I also had the belief that, in the event of this malfunction, an Airbag warning light would typically be present.
  20. Conducting a diagnostic on Star might be beneficial in determining if a certain module is malfunctioning.
  21. You need a second evaluation. The inability to locate the issue indicates that the individuals you employ are not of high quality.
  22. Srar is the computer used for identifying and resolving errors.
