For what it's worth, it appears to me to be predominantly a clutch problem. Engaging the clutch pedal yields a marginal impact, which strongly indicates a hydraulic issue (potentially sparing you the time and effort of gearbox removal). Have you inspected the slave cylinder, which is relatively accessible compared to the gearbox?

It is likely that you currently possess historical charging data, which will assist you in determining the cost-effectiveness of a ‘intelligent’ EVSE. On Intelligent Octopus Go, I am charged 6.9p per kWh during off-peak hours and 30.46p per kWh during peak hours, in addition to a standing fee. The economical rate is a fixed period from 23:30 to 05:30, and extends from 23:30 until 11:00 the following day for electric vehicle charging. Electricity is available at a reduced rate for the entire residence during the designated period, in addition to any charging intervals assigned to me between 05:30 and 11:00. EV charging stations are assigned dynamically by Octopus, and their allocation may vary based on load and consumption. In my situation, my electric vehicle lacks integration with IOG, so I utilise an Ohme Home Pro EVSE, which does have that capability, and it is the Ohme that manages the charging sessions. If you can determine your ratio of low-cost to peak charging, you will be able to contrast it with a conventional, fixed-time, overnight tariff. Approximately 52% of my appliance electricity usage can be rescheduled to the overnight period (such as the dishwasher and washing machine) or involves electric vehicle charging during off-peak hours designated by Octopus. I rarely need to charge the electric vehicle unexpectedly during peak pricing hours, although I frequently connect it during the day to prepare for the following day and receive daytime slots assigned by Octopus. Utilising a 'intelligent' EVSE such as the Ohme, in conjunction with the IOG tariff, is beneficial for us, although we represent a particular scenario. It may not be effective for all individuals. However, keep in mind that despite lacking an immersion heater, tumble dryer, batteries, or underfloor electric heating, it has still proven to be economical for us. We are still evaluating home batteries, as the point of financial equilibrium would occur approximately between 5 to 6 years.

Is this the authentic MB battery? If that is the case, then at the age of 13, it owes you nothing—simply purchase a new one regardless.

Greetings, I'm hoping someone can provide me a hand. I own a 2022 C43. I was wondering if anyone knows whether the Android Auto connected feature can make the Google Maps screen bigger. Apple Play and regular Mercedes-Benz satnav modes significantly enlarge the screen. Much obliged

Yeah, I got that figured out now. It turned out to be a nicked o ring on a leaky pipe after it warned me it may be a lift pump.

Every morning before I turn on the ignition, I hear a gurgling sound coming from the tank. I really hope I don't have to deal with this problem, because it seems rather complex. I have been pursuing this for the past three months, and chatgpt has sent me on a diagnostic house tour.

Duh, have you looked up this problem on Google? After that, what more did you do? Is each menu option still not clear to you? Could you please try pairing a different phone and seeing if it works? Is it possible to read codes with the Torque app and a generic OBD2 dongle? Any more issues with the audio? Lastly, to ensure the system is completely turned off, have you unplugged and then reconnected the 12v battery?

But you have all the cartoons in your brain 😂

Could it be a parasitic drain?

Can the bulb holder from the opposite side be temporarily fitted to determine if the defect transfers sides?

😋

Thank you for the comprehensive analysis. All of it is frustratingly logical. A private sale is the sole method to obtain what I believe it is worth, and I am not inclined to have the general public on my property. Indeed, reality may be harsh. I will likely retain it for an extended period unless the logistical issues escalate in Chateaux Fabes.

The X1 is likely to remain, as is the E400; however, the E400 would be the one to be eliminated if.... We will likely navigate into the New Year to determine if it is a reflexive response to recent obstacles. However, a markup of £3,000 to £3,500 exceeds the expectations of the two individuals I consulted. The market for 3.5 V6 petrol vehicles may be stagnant.

In recent weeks, the household has frequently required a spacious car boot and/or a large back seat. We possess the X1, and it suffices for that purpose. However, it is the sole vehicle that my wife is willing to operate. She refuses to operate the AMG, which is understandable, and expresses dissatisfaction with the foot brake, the low seating position, and the visibility of the E400 coupe, among other grievances. It is not the vehicle, but the act of operating it. It may be time for a transformation. The retail price of the car ranges from £15,500 to £15,000. That is from a familiar local garage that exclusively sells SUVs and 4x4s, as well as a long-time acquaintance in Devon who sells vehicles at a lower price point. I enquired with each individuals independently, and they expressed confidence regarding that matter. However, neither queried about it. Excluding WBAC, estimates from Motorway, Carwow, a local automobile advertiser, and one from a distant location offering a potential replacement are all approximately £12,000 or marginally lower. I am aware of the cost range, necessary preparations, contingencies, and profit margins required by a dealer, yet that markup astonished me. In a period when traders report a scarcity of quality stocks, has anyone else recently had a comparable surprise? Have you encountered this? Ultimately, I understand that it pertains to the cost of change.
