  1. https://www.oris-automotive.com/en/retrofit-towbars-for-european-market/detachable-towbars/
  2. In 1987, MB in Tooting installed our 123 280TE towbar—not very practical, I know—but it was an Oris model, and the hook was detachable, so that was a huge plus.
  3. The other possible explanation is a leak back, or excessive leak off. Helpful because it often doesn't display any problems until it won't start at all! If even a single injector fails to attain pressure due to severe leakage back, the entire system will not fire. A single recon injector fixed the issue I was having with my 270 5-pot.
  4. It was noticeably quicker shifting gears on my Sport+, though I wouldn't call it jerky.
  5. Enquire at Command.co.uk. You can get assistance from them.
  6. This is a great response. Yes, it will last forever. Passenger presence makes no difference.
  7. Kindly find the snapshot attached. Can someone give me some pointers? Class 2.1 C-DI W204 from 2011 It was getting old spending so much on repairs. Hoping it's just a little issue that I can resolve on my own Many thanks
  8. Engine model: M57 or M57N (184 or 204 horsepower)? Please tell me the background of this vehicle and the issue. So, what is the supply pressure when the ignition is turned on? Does anyone know how to decipher those codes? Verify them in DDE and provide comprehensive screenshots.
  9. I would love to upgrade our 2017 GLC with Apple CarPlay, however I am unsure about making a selection due to my lack of knowledge in this area. 🫎
  10. This vehicle, like many others I've had, including Jeeps and Alfas, requires the use of a scan tool. The ABS unit has valves that must be positioned in a specific way in order for air to be expelled during bleeding; otherwise, it will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to remove the air using standard bleeding techniques. The seals would also need to be dry for days before any danger would be present, thus your claims about them are completely without merit.
  11. It is not necessary to bleed the ABS unit unless the fluid level in the master cylinder drops too low, allowing air to enter the system.
  12. The gearbox won't shift to seventh gear until you reach 75 mph or above, according to an update that was applied to some vehicles for "emissions" reasons. Typically, the dealer will take care of this while the vehicle is in their care, and the owner is never informed.
  13. Do your homework on the model you're thinking about buying, paying close attention to the engine and transmission. Some newer models use expensive and prematurely worn out wet timing belts. Personally, I think it's important to use OEM parts while maintaining, and I may go a little overboard with oil changes. For optimal efficiency and engine cleanliness, use premium fuels.
  14. Although I find the S500 coupe to be the most attractive big coupe since the C126, I am not a fan of the cabriolet.
  15. There is nothing artificial about the ignorance, according to my really little knowledge with AI. So The Real Idiot: AI
  16. I was about to enquire as to your certainty that it isn't lipped in at the base. This seems like it isn't based on my experience. Silicone has a notorious reputation for polluting MAFs. Nothing could have been a worse choice for you.
  17. Not all of these plates endure. The tester must utilise the age-related default.
  18. In my own view, if you are able to continue using your original DPF, then you should do so. Following the engine overhaul, I believed that a new DPF would enhance reliability. The regens occurred at same intervals. However, I anticipate that the original would possess superior quality, thus it may not have deteriorated the M14 pressure port, as yours has not, or else you would not have been able to reinstall it. Thus, no benefit existed. Thank you for your reply. I have just reviewed Superchips; they are claiming an increase to 199 Bhp, but my primary concern is the torque for towing. The increase from 360Nm to 461Nm is a significant assertion. Do you emit any smoke while walking? Has your Viano undergone a MoT since the remapping? I am interested in emissions. Last October, I encountered difficulties obtaining my at 0.7, or is yours from before January 2014, thus permitted at 1.5?
  19. Thank you for that. An error I committed was substituting my DPF with an aftermarket component four years ago. The substitute pressure tapping deteriorated. The replacement aftermarket component arrived, but the tailpipe was flared, rendering it impossible to connect two female ends. I am awaiting the delivery of an additional aftermarket component. The images appear correct, so I remain hopeful. I have also bought two stainless steel pressure line nuts, aiming to diminish the probability of corrosion. They will arrive from China in a few days. Is your mapping a chip remap or a plug-in remap? What is your assessment of it? Has it influenced consumption in any manner? My first Vito was remapped, resulting in increased torque at idle. The parking brake was virtually ineffective.
