Today I got out one of my industrial vacuum cleaners and attacked Moby and Arrow; OMG the crap that came out! I'd even steam cleaned Arrow recently.... So some suggestions on where you should focus your attention: Fuse box (RHS), Cruise control actuator (underneath), Suspension front valve...

Somehow it's not the same without the standard engine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFObUhEZyrg

..... will arrive in 3 days! So excited!!!! And I wonder if it'll have a positive effect on MB popularity in the wider community and resale values?

I'm wondering how well an SLS will age and what they'll be like in 30+ years? Being that most parts are unrepairable (computers and all plastics), will parts be so insanely expensive that they're almost worthless? The W140 V12 almost falls into this category now.... If that's the case it'll...

And here's the pics:

That link is talking about lowered springs....

The suspension is just like any other system like fuel or spark. You have to ensure the supply is correct, BEFORE you start checking anything else. One thing that a wise MB trainer told me years ago. He asked the class, what do you check when a car won't start? After various anwsers...

So I'm wondering why Aussie delivered cars didn't get the foot operated parkbrake.... I asked a while ago what the knob was to the left of the headlight switch on LHD cars, but never got an answer. Answering my own questions again, it's the parkbrake release...

It seems there are two types of mechanics in today's society. Those that take the time to diagnose the problem using test equipment and those that attempt to diagnose using the symptoms as a guide and then start replacing parts in the hope of hitting the nail on the head in the (figurative)...

I'm currently taking a poll on how much you think a dealer would charge to supply and fit a set of A203 820 26 45 ?? We just had the car serviced today....
