Dealer said it was "unsatisfactory" so I got it replaced to make sure I don't have any problems. I am in the Aviation business so preventative maintenance is high on my list.
Dropped her off on Monday, pick up in a week in Perth, miss driving her already.

I check nearly every major wear component every time I wash my car, one or more times a week.Speaking of, have gone about 10 days now without washing. My wheels were BLACK and had rained a couple days 8 days ago!! I hate how quickly it is getting dark now. Today I actually took out my flood lights and washed the old girl with hot water. First time I've washed using flood lights

Rotors and pads on all 4 corners.
But now, the rears are making a god awful metal on metal rubbing sound. It's either that metal backing plate that's rubbing against the new rotors, or the rears are a few mm too thick. Either way, looks like I'll be pulling it all back apart.

I joined mbworld.
Just picked up an 06 E350 4matic and now need some help. I have already started my list of things to change and would appreciate any suggestions or input on the following: front bumper upgrade, HID upgrade, and bluetooth kit.

Made the first mod's to my new used car. Added a "CL" style grill and an E63 style trunk lip spoiler. I got the both from www.ForMyMercedes.com. Great customer service from Jerry. Changing the grill was a 15 minute job. The lip spoiler was a bit more fiddly, but not hard. More mods to come – including a flat badge.

yesterday.
changed spark plugs, cleaned up coils grounding.
Changed the oil & filter.
Tomorrow, taking it in for a trans flush and all four corners brake pads (because I feel lazy)
Also getting the star computer read, to see if the "service brake" BS is the sbc unit or not.
