Hi everyone,

I've been browsing this forum for years now and thought to myself 'Why the hell haven't i made an account yet?'
So here i am, finally made one and plan on being on here quite often as it's helped me with plenty of things such as other users experiences with certain models, new angles of fault finding, troubleshooting etc.
I can't even comprehend how grateful i am of the abundance of knowledge this site has accumulated by stellar users over the years and i hope i can contribute something to it in due time.

Sadly i don't own a Mercedes myself as for me it's not really an affordable option at the moment, I work as a mechanic and have had first hand experience of how much everything costs in general for maintaining these vehicles and keeping them up-to scratch. You may hate on me for saying this but my ford falcon is a much more affordable vehicle for myself and i know that thing like the back of my hand. It make's it even better when there's an abundance of cheap parts where i live (aus).

Anyway if i find something new to add to the forum's ill be sure to keep updating the necessary forum sections.

Thanks for reading,

Spinning

Yeh ive done a bit of work on these myself, the barra engine is still quite a revered engine over here as of today. There's some really crazy numbers being pulled from those engines
