  1. I am pleased that the issue has been resolved. Indeed, it is advisable to choose for high-quality batteries such as Duracell or Panasonic rather than the inexpensive ones found at discount stores.
  2. Have you replaced the batteries in the key? The key does not depend on the battery to initiate the car's operation, which may lead you to mistakenly believe that the key battery is functioning well. However, if the key continues to successfully lock or unlock the doors, then the key battery is not the cause of the issue.
  3. In order to proceed, you will need phone preparation, which can be identified by the presence of a connection in the central armrest, as well as a Bluetooth puck. The device you are seeing is only designed for Bluetooth connectivity with a headset. Please be aware that it is not possible to play music using Bluetooth on this particular system.
  4. If you engage in the activity of surfing, I highly recommend visiting Biarritz, as it offers some of the most exceptional waves I have ever experienced.
  5. Am I the only one who notices that the MB logo is somewhat deformed?
  6. TV production firms should refrain from including too accurate historical automobiles in their films. Their appearance in the 50's, 60's, and 70's was different.
  7. Detailing is distinct from both cleaning and valeting. The answer is evident from the name itself. The service includes a thorough cleaning, application of wax, and sealing. If the task requires less than a full day's worth of labour or costs less than £300, it is considered a clean and wax job. Mint Rims from Autofinesse is a product specifically designed to apply wax and sealant to painted or alloy rims. (Additional cleaning chemicals are required for their maintenance)

  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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. 👍
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. I had a similar issue, which was resolved by replacing the batteries. Additionally, these automobiles are not well-suited for short journeys.
  18. 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.
  19. I assume that you have really replaced it with a lower-quality version and need to go back to the original wheel.
