2015 ML 350
Bought a New Benz last week.

We had a an 2002 S430 for years and loved the car everyday. Wife and I were rear ended a few weeks ago while we were stopped with an impact so strong it pushed us in to the car in front of us. Of course the the car had major damage in the back and front. it was estimated as a total loss and we suffer from linger aches and pains from being tossed in both directions.

The wife decided on a new 2015 ML 350. She wanted to go a little bigger than the sedan we were in based on the accident. There are a lot of nice AMG sports versions at the dealership so put on your blinders guys!
We picked it up last Thursday. Drives like a dream. We like this car a lot.

MB C230 Kompressor 2002
C230 Kompressor 2002 trouble starting...

I picked up this car roughly a month ago. It had been sitting in a parking lot for 1.5 years. The owner had no mechanical knowlage and lived in fear of having it brought to the local Mercedes dealership...
So fast forward, got it started and it purred like a kitten, yet kept going into limp mode.
Blew the starter from turning it over way too many times... New starter and now time to tear it apart to find the problem.
Hundreds of searches, maf, bypass valves, everything checked out. In pure frustration, I pulled off one plug and turned it over.
It roared to life.

Here's the clincher, at the end of all this trouble starting it, it was the catalytic converter that was at the root of the problem. I cut it open and half of the interior had corroded away and two chunks had formed a perfect plug going towards the muffler.
So, every time I tried to start it the pieces would plug the exhaust, thus suffocating the engine.

So a word from the wise. Check your catalizers if you just can't get your car to start.

Regards.

Smile New to the site

Happy to be here! From Middletown, NY and drive a W204. Like most, it's not my only car, but who could possibly ever have enough rides in the driveway.

Have read enough posts on here, might as well have started an account. Also hoping I can get help with locating a part description/number, but have NOOOOOOOO idea how to post.

Looking forward to staying up to date with everything!

GL350
Happy Holidays Everyone!!

Hello! My name is Chris and I'm located in the Northern VA area. Pick up a 2014 GL350 and LOVING IT!
This is my first post and about to make a financial mistake but.. need some insight first lol. I'm in the market for a set of 22x10 with an offset of 38 (mind set on 38 & trying to make it work). I searched high and low to see if any GL's had this particular setup but had no luck. I read something from "SixPack" 38 offset is aggressive but.. Suggested a narrow tire setup. Does anyone know this narrow tire setup?
Also, anyone know how many inches the tire/rim will stick out from the fender on the front/rear of the GL? Trying to keep it classy but adding a little flare. Pic's would be helpful.
Can anyone please shed some light on this?

Happy Holidays,
Chris

Watch out for the head bolt issues on the 2010 C63. Also when I was contemplating a C63 my shop warned me, in all seriousness, that I would be buying an $800 set of tires every 4K miles - torque is a heck of a drug.
