New GLE350d - Weird Hanging Prob Behind Honeycomb Bumper?
3 Attachment(s)
Picked up a new GLE350d today. Nice ride. Coming from a w204 C63 so definitely a different experience.
I noticed what looks like some sort of probe hanging from the front bumper. It's not fasted to anything. See attached photos. Does anyone know what this is? Should it be there, or should it be fastened somewhere? Many thanks |
Could it be an outside temperature probe?

I have the same vehicle and will go check and see if I have the same thing.

Went and checked mine out thoroughly and I do not have the same probe or sensor. My 350d is loaded so not sure what that could be and why you have it and I do not.

Did you figure it out? My well equipped 400 doesn't have it. Could it be some temperature sensor for the diesel?

Ended up being a rivet - maybe from the dealer, maybe from the assembly line. Either way, just pulled it out.
|
Seriously? Just a rivet sitting there? Wow! Was there a hole left?

WHY should you feel like an idiot? somebody at the plant dropped it and didn't retrieve it. i would have asked the tech to ensure that whatever that rivet is supposed to hold together actually has a rivet in it! ron
