What Have You Done To Your Merc Today?

Sounds like an ECU error...

Replaced the brake fluid on the 129. The old stuff though perfectly clean failed on the water content when tested.

Kids are well known for being able to cause mess far in excess of their diminutive size!

AC Re-gas time

 

[Austy]

Swapped out the AGW in my E320 as it wouldn't go to sleep and was causing a slow battery drain. Was fairly easy to do and took about 40mins without rushing.

Also gave the interior a thorough clean and cleaned+conditioned the leather with Autoglym products. Looks really well. Will get the exterior done tonight.

Just taken the rear left pads out of the CLK caliper to excercise the two Pistons by pressing on the brake pedal them moving them back in with a winder . The inside piston was definitely sticking a bit . Did this about 10 times .
The plan is to fit new refurb calipers when I get more time next month . Just did this to get me through a French trip .

Just put a Sandisk 128GB SD card in my Blackvue dashcam , replacing the 15GB card Blackvue card . Hope it works , because Blackvue says third party SD cards may not work ? Hopefully it's just a protectionist statement .
Never really watched it before , but at 4x speed some of the overtakes look very professional

Star type check revealed left front sensor fault.
Hopefully they are available separately from the strut

I use a 128GB SanDisk on my Nextbase and it’s fine.
