  1. If I were in your position, I would not have departed without providing an explanation and clarifying when the task will be completed.
  2. My sincere gratitude to everyone; it is really appreciated. Indeed, my impaired vision led me to overlook the little black button located at the foot of the passenger side bonnet strut. The whole press and bonnet elevated effortlessly. Battery replacement is underway after the complete battery failure experienced by my wife upon entering the gateway.
  3. Rear hinges have been thoroughly oiled. No red button or alternative release switch is discernible. The hinge finger tabs are secured in the closed position but will not extend beyond the standard open position. Does anybody have any suggestions?
  4. Anticipate a notable rise in vibration at low revolutions and increased rattling from the gearbox when it is a diesel. I performed one on an Alfa 159 2.0 JTDM; the outcome was disastrous. I understand that your options are limited if you cannot get a DMF.
  5. The video has a duration of 47 minutes; about where does the intriguing segment occur?
  6. Are you inquiring about 'goodwill'? Manufacturers do not extend warranties for known defects; instead, they provide either complimentary repairs or partial contributions, categorizing these actions as 'goodwill' rather than 'warranty,' and they are executed at their discretion. You must take the vehicle to a dealership and inquire with them. However, the circumstances change in the US, particularly in instances when MB USA has been litigated against by customers. Regarding the 'parts warranty', in the UK, it is two years; however, it pertains to parts acquired at the dealership's parts counter, not to components installed at the factory.
  7. This has been my preferred choice for tackling tough materials; I also own a Dremel and an air-powered cut-off tool. Disorderly and possibly hazardous in inappropriate hands, but effective.
  8. Additionally, I would replace the relay prior to undertaking any other actions.
  9. The current owner appears to have possessed it for slightly more than a month, hence the reason for this situation remains unclear.
  10. It is quite peculiar that it is classified as a 2003 vehicle although the current registration plate indicates it was registered in May 2004. It is understandable why one may want to present a car as more contemporary than it actually is; yet, it appears peculiar to endeavour to portray it as older than its true condition.
  11. The back seat wear is, to me, more peculiar than the front seat wear.
  12. It appears somewhat perplexing, considering the mileage is not excessively high and it is described as being in good shape. Nevertheless, I have never encountered an interior so deteriorated on one of these. It appears somewhat peculiar and lacks consistency.
  13. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/405879990446?mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338181125&toolid=10001&customid=2518X1570512Xc0b0192b37d0b2813b103d61916e9fc2
  14. The issue is that the centre console lid cannot shut while the 12v plug is in use.

  16. Greetings, I am seeking information on the wiring of a Viofo Dashcam. I do not want to install a hardwire kit at this moment. Ideally, I would for it to be powered by the cigarette lighter; but, I am uncertain how to route it to the centre console. Could you please provide suggestions?
  17. It seems that, while you want accountability for their corruption, the primary interest is with the money remuneration. This aspect is distinct from any unlawful concerns and is within the jurisdiction of the County Court or High Court. The County Court is, in my opinion, cumbersome and often exasperating owing to its inefficacy, however it may be worth a go. Initially intended as a less formal method for achieving resolution, it has evolved to be as procedural as the more formal approaches. The High Court represents a more significant risk owing to the expenses involved in reaching it. The several thousands of pounds required may exceed the losses incurred. Awards for costs might be equally uncertain. Certainly, in both scenarios, the defence may choose not to challenge your deception and instead pursue a settlement via negotiation. This is only my non-professional, but cynical perspective shaped by adverse experiences.
  18. What are the mileages and ages of these two oil cooler leaks, my friend? The latest figure is now 208,000.
  19. Regrettably, the M274 petrol engine produces an unpleasant sound. I admit I am rather perturbed by it. It functions well, although produces a dismal sound quality. It is OK in our C350e provided that the windows remain closed.
  20. Precisely; one might assert so about any component. "Rest assured, Mr. Insurance Agent, I will cover the cost of the upgraded turbo in the event of an accident." Premiums are influenced by several factors beyond the cost of replacing components.
  21. Indeed, there is.I was not proposing that he purchase that particular item; rather, it served as a visual reference to illustrate what he seeks.
