I would want to express my sincere gratitude to each and every one of you for the valuable insights and perspectives that you have generously offered. It is highly valued. Overall, I believe that completing a whole treatment cycle is unlikely. However, I am considering proactively treating the wheel arches as a preventive measure, in order to address the issue before it worsens and causes the paintwork to bubble. Currently, there are almost no visible indications of rust whatsoever. Everything is seamless and delightful. Upon seeing the mud trapped, I pondered if these plastic wheel arch linings are really more detrimental than having the arch exposed, therefore facilitating the removal of road debris by washing. Indeed, if the lining fails to establish an impermeable barrier with the folded lip of the arch, the purpose of having a protective lining becomes questionable.

Characteristic conduct shown by manufacturers and key dealers. I believe it is not only limited to Mercedes. They all do identical actions.

There exists an EU Directive that prohibits automobile manufacturers from invalidating warranties if a car is fixed at a different location. I am uncertain about the revocation of the Directive after Brexit, given I lack comprehensive knowledge of its specific provisions. The age of my automobile is 10 years, with a mileage of around 36,000 kilometres. Thus far, there is no evidence of rust. However, I am expecting the typical progression of events with the wheel arches. The mileage will have no significance whatsoever.

I am unfamiliar with ACF50. Is it safe to heat the cans by immersing them in hot water? What is the specific method you use to go forward? What is the optimal temperature for the water? I am contemplating the possibility that the contents of the can expand as the temperature rises, perhaps leading to the chance of the can bursting or experiencing a similarly unpleasant outcome.

Precisely aligned with my thoughts.

Indeed, the vehicle has a comprehensive MB Service History, covering the majority of its lifespan from its first registration in December 2013. Additionally, it has been serviced by a specialised garage specifically for Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Therefore, considering the age of 10, I would not rely on the trustworthiness of MB benevolence.

If the paintwork develops bubbles, it will eventually puncture. In my opinion, Mercedes seems to have a limited perspective on this matter. Currently, my automobile exhibits no indications of rust whatsoever, in any location. I am sceptical after extensively removing damp muck from the crease of the wheel arch lip.

Typically, I maintain ownership of an automobile for a duration of 3 to 5 years. I would recommend considering a DINITROL treatment specifically targeting the wheel arches, since corrosion tends to manifest in this area first in a significant proportion of instances, based on visual observations.

The MB E250 CDi in my possession is a 63-Reg model from 2013, making it a decade old. I am completely free of rust and Mercedes-Benz has a corrosion guarantee of 30 years. Therefore, in principle, there are still 20 years remaining on the corrosion warranty. It is evident that I have long been aware of the tendency for MB automobiles to acquire corrosion in the wheel arches, particularly around the curved lip. Therefore, I am vigilant in monitoring this issue. Last week, when washing the automobile, I directed the high-pressure stream beneath the curved edges of the car's body, causing a significant amount of wet dirt to fall from the folded area. I was taken aback since I believed that the plastic wheel arch protectors formed a snug seal with the arch lip fold. Furthermore, what is the purpose of plastic wheel arch protectors if they fail to prevent water and road salt from reaching the metal?The user's text is enclosed in tags. I am unable to comprehend it. I had been contemplating enrolling in a DINITROL corrosion-proofing course. The nearest Service Centre to my location is in Scotland. They provided a quotation of £700+VAT for a comprehensive service, including the wheel arches, boot well, under-chassis, and door insides. The automobile will be out of service for a whole duration of 5 days, necessitating the need for me to schedule a vacation in order to accommodate this. I am neither enthusiastic about the price, nor the extended duration (5 days) required for completion. Thus I also contemplated doing the wheel arches myself using the DINITROL DIY KITS and have the Service Centre to handle the rest. However, there are certain inquiries that need to be raised, for which I lack the knowledge to provide a response: I am uncertain if doing this action will void the Mercedes Corrosion Warranty.If I choose not to take action and instead depend on Mercedes to fulfil their responsibility in the event of corrosion occurring during the remaining 20-year corrosion guarantee, can I trust that Mercedes-Benz will really fulfil their obligation?If I have the DINITROL treatment, despite it voiding the MB Warranty, would it be a more advantageous investment to prevent a much larger repair cost in case Mercedes refuses to honour the Warranty? I am aware that DINITROL is of high quality. The recommended treatment for all military vehicles in the UK MOD as well as NATO is universally applied. May I inquire about your opinion on this matter?

Thank you for the response and explanation on the choice of dynamic suspension.

👍🙆‍♂️

Thank you for your response, I will definitely investigate it.

Thank you for your response and feedback about the tyre size, tread pattern, and sidewalls. Although I first overlooked it during the test drive, all other aspects of the vehicle met my expectations, leading me to make an emotional decision rather than a rational one. Thank you once again

Thank you for your feedback. I will definitely examine the present tyre manufacturer on the rims and consult with the tyre fitters for their opinion.

First and foremost, I would want to express my sincere gratitude for your prompt response. Regarding the ride quality, it seems that we perceive every irregularity on the road, regardless of its magnitude. I would want to verify if my Evoque is equipped with the dynamic option. However, I am unable to locate a corresponding button on the console. Thank you for providing this information. I presume that is related to the 20-inch rims. I would want to make a modification to the suspension.

ha ha ha !!!😁

The vehicle in question is a 2016 Evoque dynamic model equipped with 20-inch rims. Although I have a strong affinity for the automobile, having had it for two months, I am very dissatisfied with the ride quality. I acknowledge and value the fact that the use of 20-inch rims will inevitably impact the ride's quality, and I have no intention of diminishing their dimensions. Are there any suggestions for suspension improvements that might enhance the ride quality? I would want to express my gratitude in advance for any advice or suggestions that you may provide.

If the need for all-wheel drive is not a factor, I would readily choose the M6 without any hesitation. I own a 650 Gran Coupe vehicle that has undergone many modifications, with other enhancements planned for the future. However, it is important to note that my vehicle is not an M6 model and will not be converted into one. It is anticipated that one may experience regret upon making the decision to acquire the 6, since it is not a vehicle often seen in circulation. Moreover, the M6 variant is deemed to possess an even higher level of exclusivity, in my humble opinion.

In the case of an AMG line, it is possible to install a suspension configuration derived from a SE or a comparable non-sport suspension model.

It is recommended to divide or separate the speed bumps. The presence of my sump/undertrays may potentially cause annoyance to the cars behind me, nevertheless, I place significant importance on their worth.

Are the discs and pads in satisfactory condition? One potential solution to improve the cleanliness of the discs is the application of pad material and the implementation of firm stops on the surfaces. If the W204 model exhibits similar characteristics to the W203 model, it is possible for the front crush boxes to have dry surfaces, resulting in creaking noises when the subframe interacts with the front bumper crossmember.

I now own the cluster acquired on the online marketplace, E-Bay. Residing in a geographically isolated region, I am now anticipating the opportunity to access an urban center where an authorized dealership for Audi automobiles is available. According to their statement, they have expressed their ability to do the programming task on my behalf, implying that upon completion, I would be adequately prepared to proceed.

I shall undertake the task of locating the requested information. I have come across information on "immobilizers." Would the process of coding the clocks effectively address this matter?

Laughter is expressed in the form of "haha." I had a surge of enthusiasm when seeing a response from another individual. The experience was quite satisfactory, and I express my gratitude for it.

Is there a reason why my article has not received any responses? Is it due to an error on my part or is it possible that no one has the necessary knowledge to provide an answer?
