Found out I can't do anything about the neg camber on the rear wheels...

. Nothing major for a couple months, but I am babying her a whole lot. Averaging 29.6mpg in the last 1000 miles. That's on old oil too, only 1800 to go for next service.

Looks great!! That was the first time I've seen the engine bay of a W211 Diesel. Yours is immaculate, no oil leak from the valve covers either. My goal is to get one of those 250k certificates. 150k to go.

I not only did this today, but have been during all these crazy hot days; I have been covering her with the OEM Mercedes W211 fitted cover. The thick one

Changed oil last week.
Changed out air filters over the weekend.
Had the valve cover gaskets replaced under ext.warranty.
Had the driver's window control switch replaced under ext.warranty.
Had the heater valve control replaced (though still have warm temp issue)
Getting her professionally detailed, as we speak, to remove all the swirl damages from the previous owners.

The easiest DIY I have ever completed on this car; I changed the Serpentine belt last night with a flashlight, wrench, and Allen wrench for a pin. It only took 5 minutes . I don't know why I postponed it so long. I bought it for less than $28 at Autohausaz. Even with a discount I would have spent $50 at the dealership. I wonder how much the total cost would have been at a dealership??

Had front ball joints and bushings replaced. Got the sunroof closed (and pulled her fuse lol). She's at the body shop right now getting a couple of minor touch ups. Ordered a new set of euro clear side markers (since I hit the passenger side one on a post and they only sell a set, so will probably be selling the used driver's side one soon). Then she's getting a detail and then new tires and alignment... been a rrreeeaaaalllllllyyyyy expensive month (and not just because of her)
