A C-350 OM642 Oil Catch Can, Year: 2012
AMG33D replied to Screwdriver_1's topic in General Discussions
I concur with your statement. The little quantity typically accumulated in a catch can is unlikely to result in the emission of blue smoke. However, it may contribute to the accumulation of deposits in the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valves and intake manifolds when combined with high-temperature exhaust gases. Although it is still advisable to implement this measure, it is doubtful that it is the root cause of your issue. -
In the event that the vehicle is not covered by a warranty provided by the manufacturer, the dealership will impose a fee for conducting diagnostic tests. Regarding the replacement of the RADAR sensor in 2021, it is important to note that Mercedes-Benz (MB) provides a two-year guarantee on their components. However, it should be acknowledged that the transferability of this warranty may be subject to certain limitations. Given that you acquired the automobile only yesterday, it is very advisable to have the necessary repairs or maintenance performed by the authorized dealer from whom you made the purchase, particularly in the case of a JLR vehicle.

I was starting to contemplate if I was the only one experiencing it. It is advisable to seek an alternative carwash facility. I have opted for a standard contactless spray method, excluding the use of brushes, strips, or rollers. It is expected that I remain inside the vehicle to drive it into position, come to a halt at a red light, and wait for a green light before driving it out. This approach is preferred as it minimizes the risk of causing any power-related dragging or damage to the bare floor. What level of difficulty does it entail?

Whenever I get a new vehicle, I always engage in the practice of laundering the floor mats by means of a washing machine. In the process of cleaning the carpets of my G Wagens, I first used a Bissell, which yielded limited results. Subsequently, I resorted to using a K4 Karcher power washer. Please refer to the timestamp of 4:00 in the video.

Waxoyl is a very effective substance that exhibits remarkable properties for extended periods of use. Nevertheless, I concur that its application process might be cumbersome. The inside panels of my 33-year-old vehicle have been treated with waxoyl, a protective coating that was originally applied by the dealer upon purchase. Despite the passage of time, the waxoyl application has effectively preserved the panels, resulting in their continued pristine condition without any signs of rust. Prior to use, my acquaintance applies the waxoyl tin onto the surface of their arga top for a duration of 30 minutes, allowing it to reach a temperature close to boiling point. The application process is executed smoothly, without the formation of any lumps, and remains effective for a duration of around 30 minutes.

Is it typical for brake pads to get worn out after 8,000 miles?

What was the rationale for doing a health assessment on a vehicle that is just four months old? -
It is possible that a prior proprietor may have intentionally removed the diesel particulate filter (DPF).

The automobile in question is rather impressive.

Is the object in question identified as a W245 model? The website provided is a source that offers bonnet insulation for the W245 model.

Based on my estimation, a whole day would be required.
