2019 GLA 250 - I am in purgatory right now...
2017 C300 Coupe / purge line kinked
Hello All,
Not having a great experience with this car so far. Airmatic suspension failed within 1 mile of the dealership when I Picked it up, Right Rear strut had to be replaced. Less than 10 miles on the clock. Now at 800 miles the CEL came on and they said they found a kinked purge line which needed to be replaced. Please see the attached. What is this line, where is it located and what does it look like? It's apparently so new the parts had to be ordered from Germany and I need to go back and have it installed.
Other than these issues I really love the car, but I would like to know what this is which needs to be replaced.
Much TIA
Rick
