Call, Call, Call again and keep on it - I've heard nothing for Canada. I'm in the same boat - US and CAN cars are identical.

benznewcomer

but if the vehicle is originally a us vehicle but being driven in canada it should work shouldnt it? should i just drive it across the border and have it fixed?? ( i am 1 hr from border )

zarevron

Well its certainly worth a try if its only an hour.

Hulk

If it was bought in the us technically it could work, but MB Canada is not fixing these.

Settlement was between nhtsa and mbusa.

Hello to all senior members and new w211 amg owners like me! I sent my e55 to the dealership earlier this week. Recently, it is running with some error codes of lean on fuel trim and one of evap leak, with a CEL. there are gas drops after refill and smell outside the car. Yesterday, the repair manager sent me an email saying the problem is from the tank gaskets which is not included in the extended warrenty?? And he said the CEL is caused by upstream O2 sensors not the fuel system leak. I personally has not pulled out any code about O2 sensors before and the car had an eurocharge tune. I asked why the tank gaskets are not included by the warrenty and he emailed back with an bulletin on January 9th, which there is a note under "which parts are covered" saying gaskets(MY 08-11 only)(attachment). I am little confused now about my next move.
Have had the car for 4 months and ready for a coilover conversion.
Also thanks to the people who helped making the warrenty happen!
Thanks

Sorry if pic is upside down ( my phone always does it)

I took off my seat and saw a small pool of fuel by connector would they consider this under the warrenty?

It only sometimes smells like fuel when it's full not all the time



I sucked out most of it with a turkey baster before I took the pic lol

SilverStrk

Yes under the new extended warranty.. Take it to a dealership with a FULL tank make sure it smells... Good luck...

Mine looked just like that this morning when I took it in. They just called and said it was approved for the warranty repair. In my case, they are replacing the entire fuel tank and senders.

sorry your service center doesn't know what they are talking about. the guided fault tree specifically says remove the fuel tank access openings and see if fuel is smelt or seen to be leaking (from anywhere on the tank). you vmi covers complete tank and components if fuel is leaking. even the document he sent you says
"If during this period
the vehicle experiences a leakage from any of the “Covered Fuel Tank Components” listed above and it is
determined that it is due to a warrantable condition that would have been covered had it occurred during
the original warranty period, this warranty extension will cover the necessary part(s) and labor to repair or
replace the component(s).

its saying ANYTHING on the tank that is leaking that would have been covered under the original factory warranty will justify approval of this new warranty extension. call mbusa or go to another dealer.

Got mine back and here are part numbers for whatever reason needed. Haven't forgot about u Greg.

Rocman8

these sender units are the now outdated part numbers. unfortuneately dealers have inventory of the old numbers and use them up first before the new numbers.

A211 470 17 94 has been replaced by
A211 470 00 00

A211 470 51 94 has been replaced by
A211 470 64 94 (last i heard backordered till april)

AMG E Power

@rocman8 these parts were the parts that dealer ordered they were not in stock.

Rocman8

sorry. dealers and the local parts depots use up the old numbers first.

novae500

Wouldn't be surprised if all available old versions in stock are used up. First in first out inventory.

berti_00

they said they had to order my parts so thats why its been almost a month for me

Hulk

Hey berti was yours actually leaking or you just had the evap code?

berti_00

Just the code but I am getting the full treatment

Hulk

Ok that's good to know because the evap is a much easier fix

berti_00

Yah new pumps tank gaskets all of it

WANTED!!

So I was originally only getting new fuel pumps. My rep called me a couple of days ago and now I'm apparently getting the whole system replaced. ****ing sweet!!!!!!

Hulk

That's good news, so now anyone just with an evap code can have the whole fuel system replaced.

berti_00

they are doing this so that we dont come back and finish it all in one shot... good way of them to go i think, well at least for us it is

Hulk

I agree, they obviously don't want comebacks too soon lol

novae500

Got the letter in the mail past week. Based on some of the info on the thread, i may wait til after April when possible new versions of the same parts are available.

bbearden

Has a new design for the pump or tank assemblies been developed/manufactured? I still haven't received the letter yet.
