Does anyone know the part number for the tire pump that goes along with the tool kit? I'm looking for the Mercedes Benz version.

Also does anyone know where it fits in the tool kit?


Please see the attached photo for an example of what I'm talking about.
The one pictured is from a GLK350.

W211 wagons don't have an air pump. They come with a fully inflated skinny temporary spare tire -- not an inflatable spare tire.

OEM part # 0005831302 or 1502 (i.e.: e55 or e63 wagon with folding third row seat) MSRP $360, to comparison shop new, parts.com $259.20 – used check eBay.

Curiosity got the better of me, so I checked my manual. The compressor apparently comes with E63 wagons with a third row. Tirefit sounds like a tire sealing and air compressor setup similar to what Continental Tire calls ContiComfort and sells for $79 at Tire Rack (http://www.tirerack.com/accessories/...3-b8ff051191ec).

It seems that E63 wagons with a third row don't come with any spare tire, so Mercedes throws in the tire sealing kit as a consolation prize. My guess would be that the mufflers are a bit larger on E63's, leaving no room for a spare tire. The same was true of certain BMW M3s and M5s years ago.
