E63S
I’m picking up an E63S tomorrow and wanted to get up to speed on the ins and outs of Mercedes so I joined the forum! Looking forward to learning from the gurus on here. I was a huge forum guy when I had my CTS-V and learned how invaluable the community is.

I’m in San Diego so any SoCal peeps hit me up!

Question, how do I get private messages to work?

GLC43, E400 wagon
New member intro

Hi All,

This is Sam in Cincinnati Ohio and just yesterday afternoon found out about this forum and became a member.

I currently own a 2017 E400 wagon and 2000 Boxster S “garage queen”. Recently I purchase a leftover new 2018 GLC43 AMG and wish to have a trailer hitch for a bike rack installed but have balked at Mercedes Tailer hitch cost and associated labor charge. It’s not that I’m cheap or unfamiliar with labor rates for luxury German car as I’ve owned Audi’s and Porche’s for over 40 years. But $2500 total is just ludicrous for a trailer hitch. I’m also retired and an avid cyclist and part time bike mechanic.

In searching the inter-web for pictures and ideas I stumbled across this forum and found some help. I’m sticking with the OEM Mercedes hitch for a finished flush fit but have negotiated a significantly better price with my dealer who was very forthcoming. Thanks for the help.

Sam

My mechanic says to ignore it. What do you say?
You’d better post this on the R230 forum.

New to the world of Benz Maintenance

My name is Tom in Raleigh , NC. Recently purchased my first Benz from an elderly ladies estate..2003 e320 sedan with 60,000 original miles. I have maintained Volvos and Landrovers to 250k miles, just never a Benz product. These forums are invaluable to these older vehicles! Glad to be here!

CLK 320
Mistakes are gods way of teaching.

newbie jon. I have been accessing MB World for months, but only today have I been able to crack the password barrier. I own a MB clk 320 M112 2002 convertible. Love the car and have broken several plastic parts in the engine. Turns out JB Weld fixes the black engine plastic. .Be sure to roughen the plastic and clean it well with alcohol, clamp overnight. Use a piece of cut up beer can to reinforce joint. Wonderful. Used electric alligator clips to clamp. I live in Palm Springs, CA and would love to meet a fellow mercedes person. Bavarian auto repair on W. San Rafael is the best. I saw a guy on youtube drill a small hole in the air intake snorkel ( to be pluged by a small screw) and carefully spray throttle body cleaner into the hole. I'm wondering if performing this procedure from time to time will clean out the problematic air intake manifold. Any thoughts??

New owner of a 2004 W211

Hello all,
I just recently purchased a 2004 W211. It's a bit of a fixer upper, but it's a fun car. Looking forward to contributing and learning from this forum.
Jason.

Had to put new wheels on due to a cracked copy of an AMG wheel.

You’d be better off in the CLK forum, although other models share the M112.

MBpippo, thanks! I really enjoy this car so far. Need to get it reliable so I'm comfortable with my wife taking it places. Though that brings up other fears...

Hi Altus and welcome! Try the W204 forum https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w204-83/ for C250 info, or post your own question there.
Please post a pic of your C180.
