[MBZ] Today's 400E Fun

2018-02-13 Thread Dan Penoff via Mercedes
Got home from work and ran the car into the garage.  Pulled the carpets and 
shampooed them.  Pulled the back seat lower cushion.  No bundles of $50s as I 
always hope.  For that matter, no mints, Cheetos or change, either.  Dang it!  
Opened the hood and started in there. Took the air cleaner off and found the 
mounts gone, which is typical. The seal for the MAF is hard as a rock as they 
usually are. Power steering pump reservoir knob is missing and replaced with a 
nut.  Throttle cable is hosed at the adjustment nut where it threads into the 
bracket.  Oil filler cap is cracked.  Vacuum elbow to fuel regulator is 
cracked.  One of the breather hoses on top of the engine is disconnected, but 
all of the hoses are amazingly supple, so they must have been replaced.

I had a spare steering wheel and airbag from youngest son’s S500 which I 
transplanted into the car to replace the trashed steering wheel that was on the 
car.  I could have sworn that I had one with burl on it, but it might have been 
in the S420 that got totaled.  No matter, it’s much nicer now.  I took 
advantage of having the wheel off and cleaned the turn signal and cruise 
control switches.  I was going to pull the instrument cluster as well, but that 
would have taken me down a rabbit hole I didn’t have time for.

Ran a full set of diagnostics with the C3 system and found the following:

ASR: 030 CAN: No reception from EFP N4/1

LH1: 022 Oxygen sensor heater G3/2 -//-, (two opposite “L”s laying down with 
their tops pointing at each other, if that makes sense)

EFP: 009 Control module EFP N4/1
014 Control Module EFP N4/1
051 Idle speed safety contact M16/1s2

GM: 006 A/C compressor clutch blocked A9
009 Voltage supply N3/1 -//-
010 Fuse F2 or control unit 16/1
017 Voltage supply module box blower motor M2/2 -//-

I know most of these but not all, so I’ll have to do some research.  I cleared 
all of the faults and will drive the car tomorrow before scanning it again to 
see what pops up.  Realize that some of these faults could be years old and 
resolved a long time ago, but never cleared.

The radio was pissed after I powered back up and is now showing an “E 2” error, 
whatever that is.  More research.

The fuzzy spacer that’s between the seat bottom and console on the driver’s 
seat is AWOL, so I need to figure that one out.  I found the piece in the 
trunk, and it’s definitely broke.  Looks like the seat has to come out to 
replace it.  Ugh.

No lighting in the ACC panel, so all of those bulbs have to be replaced.  I’m 
ordering a full set of copper fuses as well as a bunch of strip fuses, as my 
fuse inventory seems to have been depleted.  I have all the vacuum lines and 
air cleaner mounts, as I keep that stuff on hand since it’s common to so many 
models.  I sorted those on the spot.  Gotta order all of the rest of the stuff.

Tomorrow should be hot and sunny, so I’m planning on slathering it with 
Leatherique and letting the interior bake all day.  Might pull the cluster 
tomorrow after work and see what I need to resurrect the odometer.

[MBZ] 240D

2018-02-13 Thread Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes
So the guy with the 124 cab called again today seeming really anxious to 
swap cars.  I told him maybe Saturday but I want to drive this car for a 
couple of days to see what else pops up.  I drove it today for a couple 
of miles, which from what I can tell is the only 2 miles it has been 
driven in the last 5+ years. Probably closer to 10 years.  Who knows.  
Anyway, tires look good, still have the nipples on them.  However when 
you get it up to about 50 it feels like its driving on square tires and 
feels like the car will fly apart.  I thought about trying to balance 
them being that I am cheap, but I guess I will go ahead and install the 
new set of tires I bought for the other 240D.  I also smelled something 
burning like brake fluid maybe even though the brakes appear to work 
fine.  From looking under the car looks like one of the calipers might 
be leaking.  Guess I will need to swap that out.  I got a belt that 
seems to start squeeling at times so I will replace the 2 belts on it.  
I will see what flaps has since I wont have time to wait for an order to 
come in.

So this has a salvage title but appears to have minor damage on the 
fender and bumper.  I pulled the carfax and it was issues in October.  
So is this damage enough to total out one of these? Wow.

For the official MB pullers:

- How long is the bent portion?

- What is the part number?

It's 14 miles from the front gate of the Ranch to the Ranch House. All 14
miles is serious 4 wheel drive, across desert country I can't even
remotely imagine putting 4.4 sec acceleration to use for that trip top
speed on the most level section is 20 mph... for about 1/2 mile. I'm sure
one trip would "mark up" those "pretty city boy wheels"... and the choya
cactus would do a job on that nice paint...

I'm sure it's a great and impressive vehicle to take to the super market
without messing up your man bun or getting your skinny jeans dusty,
however...

My brother in law has one with the top silverware rack that doesn’t clean well. 
He said that when this came up during service he was told it was an issue and 
that the models with the rack on the bottom did a better job.  His is probably 
6-7 years old now, so maybe it’s an issue they resolved.

We love ours as well - got it based on the reviews from you guys. Wife
thinks it's the best thing I've ever bought her - even at the high price.
We got the SHEM63W52N model - lowest cost with the third rack silverware
drawer at the top - it works really well - leaves more space for larger
pots, etc. down below. It's hard to hear it running, but takes longer than
the old dishwashers we've had, but cleans better than any we've ever owned
(6 so far?).
