  1. Indeed, the current face is fresh. Any endeavour to repair or polish the delaminated one would be futile.
  2. I am uncertain about the meaning of "protective film". Could you please clarify? Providing a photograph might be beneficial. However, if it is an older version of the Audio 10/20 and you see a peeling film, it is not a protective coating. If you're curious about how I know this, feel free to inquire.
  3. Remember to consider Ben at Parkway Mercedes, a no-frills independent Mercedes-Benz dealership located in Fishponds. Please note that Parkway is not in close proximity to Fishponds. Ben will provide an explanation if you get the opportunity to meet him.
  4. The initial performance of the gearbox is expected to be satisfactory, but, the much higher torque generated by the engine may expedite the deterioration of the clutch discs in the automatic gearbox. Indications of this occurrence may be seen when the clutches start to experience slippage, which will gradually deteriorate over a period of time. Increasing the intensity of driving the automobile will result in accelerated deterioration of the clutch discs. The slip will serve as your cautionary notice.
  5. An excellent auto body repair business should possess the capability to scan the current paint and create a colour match by blending new and old paint during the spraying process. However, achieving a seamless match between old and new paint is particularly challenging when dealing with silver, since it is one of the most difficult hues to match accurately. I would recommend engaging in conversations with many nearby automotive repair establishments to gauge their responsiveness and get insights on their recommendations.
  6. The reason I posted is because the automobile in the link seems to be more recent than yours, although it still has buttons.
  7. I just searched for this item on Autotrader and saw that there are buttons located next to the inside light near the rear view mirror. Does yours vary from this? Auto Trader UK offers a wide selection of both new and pre-owned cars for sale.
  8. Is it registered on a 2008/9 licence plate? Indeed, having a sufficient amount of money is undeniably advantageous.
  9. What is the extent of its affordability? What is the mileage and other relevant information?
  10. What is the age of the battery? The battery should have a production date. Have you measured the voltage both under load and without load, as well as during the charging process?
  11. You may find the information either in the owners handbook or on the fuse box.
  12. Indeed, doing a leak off test would be a prudent first step. Measure the returns from the injectors while the engine is operating.
  13. We use silicon lubricant with great efficacy. Frequently purchased from Lidl, so not a wise financial decision. Both my 300CE and my son's 190D1.5 are in good condition.
  14. Depending on the mileage of the discs, it may be necessary to just replace the brake pads. Bosch does not manufacture brake pads. I would recommend considering brands such as Brembo, Mintex, Ferrodo, and others.
  15. Indeed, we made a purchase of an automobile with them a few years back. Everything proceeded with great ease.
  16. Perhaps doing a trial of the fraudulent scheme to see whether anybody detected it? We have seen instances on our eBay account when fraudsters attempted to list things for £1.99, but their efforts were thwarted. Presumably doing a test to determine the potential success of a significant impact.
  17. I am unable to provide an assessment on the effectiveness of the site where you have positioned the new GPS receiver, but... In my last W211 E55, I had a similar problem and resolved it by securing the replacement receiver purchased from eBay using cable ties. I placed it behind the rear parcel shelf inside the trunk. Subsequently, I departed at a leisurely pace and the map indicated my precise whereabouts within a distance of 100 yards. These are the only two pictures I have. Have you correctly inserted the new blue fakra plug into the appropriate socket at the rear of the satellite navigation unit?
  18. Another possibility to consider is if the issue might be related to the door or window seals. A thorough cleansing may be effective.
  19. It is possible, particularly if they are the sort that can be folded up using spring-loaded mechanisms. 🤷🏻‍♂️
  20. Are there any grab grips included? Apologies, I am unaware of the specific model.
  21. To begin, I suggest lowering the seats, taking a drive, and thereafter readjusting the seats. Additionally, I recommend operating the centre armrest by raising and lowering it many times. Is there a detachable parcel shelf included? Remove the item and also engage in a car ride.
