Hi everyone, I recently purchased a 2014 S550. I feel it was a deal of my life time, and I couldn't pass up on this chance to own it. I bought it off my Mother-inlaws estate. The car only has 114,000 km on it and she was the second owner and only drove it 24,000km in the last 5 years! (I paid $22,000 CAN)
this car will become my daily commute car so I really want to take care of it the best I can.
Now I have all the history and paper work of the car and its only been serviced 5 times by mercedes over the years. A oil change eas done about 4000km ago . But I beleive that's over a year ago and I should be doing another oil change sooner rather then later?.

My big question is about the front facia. It looks like it has to be realigned. From what I can tell it looks like my mother inlaw had rolled over a concrete parking lot block, and then back off it which pulled the front facia on one side. No damage to sensors or anything I park this car in a very tight garage and the sensors work great.. its more of a visual thing that only I notice..
is this a costly repair to realign, or should i just live with it ?
thanks alot for taking my question.
cheers

Passenger side front wheel well , gap between light and wheel well. Front facia needs realignment.

 

Wow! Looks brand spanking new. I would pull off and access the issue...Seems like fix (by you) but if not then of course get it corrected. Just my opinion. GL

welcome to mbworld...
check W222 forum for tips but looks like easy diy fix...

 

I will definitely look into this, I am a Tool and Die Maker so I am pretty capable with the right direction to tackle this myself... maybe 😀

 

thanks for suggestion . I will start looking into this and what's involved to do it myself. Cheers.

 

You got it! Lets the corresponding forum know if you need help. GL

Hi and welcome to MBWorld. Great looking S. Get the facia fixed and enjoy 👍

 

Yeah, you're going to want to get out from underneath that car. As a matter of fact I will buy it from you for exactly what you paid..

Change the fluids, check the harness for oil and water system (small pipes) for drying/cracked plastics. Awesome car.
