Your list of asian cars is disgusting. All asian cars are disgusting for that 
matter and I view their owners with disdain. Buy a BMW X3 or something.

SWMBO had ruled out Merkun iron, according to Clay.   So it'd have to be 
a toada tundra:   Much less "truck" for much more money.



Otherwise, the heavy half or 3/4 ton peekup, ta hoe or suburban hoe 
types are good choices.

starts to dent the check book, and you've got records to support the costs of 
both options, you'll be able to win the argument.  Insurance, fuel, garage

While this may not be an issue in Washingtonland, the Elements had regular 
issues with AC systems grenading, I believe.

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

I still have the SDL.  I gave it rattle can two years ago as a quick and dirty. 
 Since it remains running well, I would replace the poor quality sheet metal 
with better at $25 a pop.  Paint booth rental is all of $160 for a weekend.  
Much simpler to have the old stuff go away and bolt on the pretty ones in an 
afternoon.

Re: [MBZ] If not the SD....

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

Rust issues.  I prefer the OM606, and I shopped them while I ended up with the 
W220.  Quality was not there in 2012.  I doubt they got better with age.

Re: [MBZ] If not the SD....

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

The W220 was not bottom fed.  That really sealed the fate of the Star Cars in 
her mind.  NO Benz is good in her eyes.  The w124 was too “snooty” for her, and 
repair costs on that 15 year old car were not “fiscally responsible”.

My vote would be to put a low miles 617 in the SD at less than one years car 
payments.  It may not be a perfect car, but I can source better wood trim, 
rebuild the seating, and make upgrades for lower costs.  That “newer” car will 
require paying a shop to work on it, as I will not.  Not into computer stuff

Re: [MBZ] If not the SD....

[Meade Dillon via Mercedes]

I would offer that the early Odyssey vans had a problem making the
transmissions unreliable and subject to early death at less than 100k
miles, so approach those with caution.

I think the Pilot's could be decent.  Friends have one, they like it.  No
idea how it rides.

Consider the Honda Element, no longer in production.  They have a cult-like
following.  Very utilitarian for a sub-SUV.  Friend at work has one and his
wife also drives one.

Re: [MBZ] My Crazy Day....

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

The W210s are simple and easy to maintain, that’s what I like about them.  
Maybe not as simple and easy as a W110, but simple, none the less.  Their 
issues are well understood and known, so an issue like this one was highly 
likely to be the CPS, with the fuel pump relay and lastly the K40 relay, all 
common faults for the W210.

Re: [MBZ] My Crazy Day....

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

You make it sound like simple/easy stuff!   Its not!Good work. and 
relatively easy when you have the knowledge, the right tools, and the 
right parts on the shelf.



Dan Penoff via Mercedes 
November 14, 2018 at 5:22 PM
Went in to the office at the regular hour (6:15 am) and did the final 
configuration for a new SecurityOnion server that was being installed 
at our DR (disaster recovery) site. Got the NIC configured for the new 
IP address, gateway and DNS, grabbed some cables and loaded it up in 
the wagon.


Got out to the DR site, got the server racked and stacked in short 
order and sat down for a little bit in one of the cubes to check the 
configuration. Working fine, so…


Good friend and former coworker was retiring fro the school district 
today after 30 some odd years. Their data center is not far from our 
DR site, so I swung by there and caught him for lunch. Lot of 
reminiscing and good times. Looked at my phone on the way back to his 
office and saw I missed three calls and some texts from the youngest 
son (2002 E320). Hmm.


Got out of retiree’s office and called the son. Car died on him in 
Starbuck’s drive through. He got a ride home from a buddy and was 
waiting for me when I arrived home. Immediately hit my notes and was 
thinking fuel pump relay, K40 relay and… crankshaft position sensor! I 
had a CPS and fuel pump relay, so we piled in the E320 wagon with the 
SnapOn diagnostic box and headed to Starbucks.


Pop open the hood, plug in the SnapOn box, configure it for his car 
and - nothing. Go back through the configuration and realize I had set 
it for 1998 W210, NOT 2002. Ah-ha! Now we get some talking going on 
with the ECU, which immediately dumps a CPS error. CEL was on, too, 
which he said had not been happening prior to this.


He cranked it up and it ran. Drove the car home (quickly) and put it 
in the garage with the garage AC on (it’s in the high 80s here today 
and humid as heck.)


Went back out in 30 minutes or so, replaced the CPS (I always keep a 
spare around for good reason) and off he went after I cleared the CEL.


Back into the house to catch up with 3-4 hours of work I had to get 
done before tomorrow, as some updates have to be pushed at 6:00 am 
tomorrow before production starts for the day.


Ordered another CPS to replace the stock part I took off the shelf 
today. It sure pays off to keep some of the common stuff sitting around….

Nice work!

Today was overcast, humid, but cold (around 55 degrees) here in Chucktown.

Last week I replace the drag link on The White Whale, I should have also
ordered a new steering damper.  Tonight I'll finish the Rock Auto order and
try to get over the free shipping threshold.

The requisite was to haul 4 people in comfort.   Neither qualify, as the 
focii won't either.   None of em will haul hoods and trunks either.

Nissan Altima or Mazda 6, or their variants. I’ve owned both and you 
couldn’t kill either one. Very pleased with both as “gas and go” cars.

[MBZ] My Crazy Day....

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

Went in to the office at the regular hour (6:15 am) and did the final 
configuration for a new SecurityOnion server that was being installed at our DR 
(disaster recovery) site.  Got the NIC configured for the new IP address, 
gateway and DNS, grabbed some cables and loaded it up in the wagon.

Got out to the DR site, got the server racked and stacked in short order and 
sat down for a little bit in one of the cubes to check the configuration.  
Working fine, so…

Good friend and former coworker was retiring fro the school district today 
after 30 some odd years.  Their data center is not far from our DR site, so I 
swung by there and caught him for lunch.  Lot of reminiscing and good times.  
Looked at my phone on the way back to his office and saw I missed three calls 
and some texts from the youngest son (2002 E320).  Hmm.

Got out of retiree’s office and called the son.  Car died on him in Starbuck’s 
drive through.  He got a ride home from a buddy and was waiting for me when I 
arrived home.  Immediately hit my notes and was thinking fuel pump relay, K40 
relay and… crankshaft position sensor!  I had a CPS and fuel pump relay, so we 
piled in the E320 wagon with the SnapOn diagnostic box and headed to Starbucks.

Pop open the hood, plug in the SnapOn box, configure it for his car and  - 
nothing.  Go back through the configuration and realize I had set it for 1998 
W210, NOT 2002.  Ah-ha!  Now we get some talking going on with the ECU, which 
immediately dumps a CPS error.  CEL was on, too, which he said had not been 
happening prior to this.

He cranked it up and it ran.  Drove the car home (quickly) and put it in the 
garage with the garage AC on (it’s in the high 80s here today and humid as 
heck.)

Went back out in 30 minutes or so, replaced the CPS (I always keep a spare 
around for good reason) and off he went after I cleared the CEL.

Back into the house to catch up with 3-4 hours of work I had to get done before 
tomorrow, as some updates have to be pushed at 6:00 am tomorrow before 
production starts for the day.

Ordered another CPS to replace the stock part I took off the shelf today.  It 
sure pays off to keep some of the common stuff sitting around….

Thanks for the clarification.   I have some more photos but I'm not sure 
of the best way to send them.  Just post to the forum and hope Kaleb 
approves them?  Send them another way?


Thx again,

Re: [MBZ] W124 Rear Wheel Bearing

[Larry Turner via Mercedes]

Thanks Max,
I have a Dewalt Electr wrench - depending on compressors  and air gun, 
the electr gun sometimes has more uumph.


Your point about the nut being shallow is appreciated - I understand the 
concern.  I guess if I round it off I can cut it with a chisel if 
careful not to damage threads?  which may be tricky...


Thanks again,
LarryT

That twelve point nut:  lock the parking brake and leave transmission in gear.  
Lean hard into your air gun, the nut is shallow and easily rounded off.
