E55 2001 - few questions
Okay so I was driving, esp off busted a uturn went over a curb (dont ask why), pretty sure my rims are damaged and was wondering if I should get them fixed , buy two new ones or what. vibration on the rims when I hit 50-60.
second, as far as car audio goes, the douche who had purchased my e55 new did not get the bose audio package, therefore I have a car with four pathetic speakers. anyone upgrade their stuff? and if so what did you use and how does it sound.
third, lcd pixels on the dash are tripping out and was wondering if anyone new of a cheap fix.
aandd fourth, those of you who have seen "alexbenz"'s car, does anyone know where to get that diffuser on the rear, i've searched the seas and sky's and found nothing for the w210.
Thanks

Wheels are up to you. Could buy from someone on this forum, or Ebay etc. I say replace with OEM as I did when the wife took out a curb.
Radio options are posted all over here too. Bose is in mine. Still sounds weak to me, but the wife is happy with it and she drives it most.
As for the pixels. There are several postings for that. I think someone called it the "Foam Fix" where you wedge a foam block in the plug in the rear a little tighter. I have the same problem, but I also found another post that list a company that you send it to, and they repair it. I think thats the way for me.
Can't help with the diffuser as I have a wagon.
Happy motoring.

Wow, no standard Bose in your '01 E55?? It's unheard of (or quite unordinary) for a limited run of only 653 units of E55 AMG's in 2001 WITHOUT the Bose system... Did you also run your VIN in the Russian website so you can see all the details of your car's options?
