There are some vague indications that some third party can make a new key ( the
electronic part)! but it’s not entirely clear. Basically a dealer item if even
available.

Floyd and folks
I see I can get shells and keys on big women
Floyd if I get another key with electronics can you clone or program it with
some of your Mercedes’ electronics?
I have a thing to make some sprinter keys … to clone them … Zed Bull it is
called
If you clone you don’t have to

You can get key fobs off eBay for cheap, or if you can wait some weeks try

The absolute key to successful welding of aluminum is having it pristine
clean.
Which means removal of oil in the pores of the casting in this case AND
removal of oxidation. Once aluminum is truly clean enough to weld, it
oxydizes [think rusts] very quickly. Aluminum oxide forms an insulation
Welding cast aluminum should be interesting.

It’s worth way more than that in parts.
Sounds like a bad ground or worn wire somewhere. A scanner where you could
watch fuel pressure and other parameters would probably show where the problem
is

I'm 90% sure it's aluminum, so not rust I don't think. I found some

I could widen it a bit too with the coke bottle shape, or just leave it the
same width and let the heads catch the breeze for additional cooling. And

Mercedes V12 just stretch it in the middle... you will have to build a
frame in any case, which I see no evidence of one.

Well I've long said that you learn a lot when things go wrong. With any luck I
learned something yesterday. Even if it's that I probably should have taken a

Last week we got a bunch of heavy wet snow, like 6 or 8 inches. It snowed off
an on all week. Trees down all over the place. We never lost power at our house
but we did lose one phase for awhile back on Tuesday.

Needs rear ABS sensors=needs axle tone rings which are a pita to change. No

It’s probably the actuator that’s bad. You can get new ones from China instead
