What Have You Done To Your Merc Today?

[John Laidlaw]

Added CarPlay

Any good ?

 

[Wighty]

Just topped up both washer bottles , and used a hose under all the wheel arch edges to get any salt out .
Dropped the old Clk battery off at the tip (it's still very heavy)!

I stood looking at the 170 this morning trying not to scratch the itch of gerrin the rust sorted while the weather is so rubbish , tough when I know its going to look great once its sorted , roll on the sunshine ( or at least not snowing )

Since I changed the anti-freeze with G48 the gauge now sits a fraction over 80 degrees.........Hmmmmm

 

[LostKiwi]

Both my 129 and 210 run at 82 virtually all the time.

My SL has always run at 80 degrees or thereabouts.

Put it on the CTEK over night as a treat for the batteries. Researched water filters for spotless rinse and looked for jacks and wheel stands so I can get the wheels off and treat them with some sort of nano sealant.

Today I fitted some performance downpipes then laughed all the way down the road.

Whilst on my travels yesterday, I noticed Halfrauds have a box set - trolley jack, two axle stands and a wheel brace (I think extending handle), for £65.

Cheers mate - will take a look tomorrow as I will be near one!

Just over 6 hrs behind the wheel of mine today on some of the most congested roads this small Isle has. Still a great place to sit and as comfortable a place to be as you’d want.

Changed the Oil, Oil Filter, Air Filter and Pollen Filter.

Followed by a a good wash with Autoglym UHD Shampoo! Including cleaning all the shuts in the Boot and Doors as well as those gulleys in the Rubbers on the Door Frames - filthy they were!

Then I vacuumed the Interior and cleaned the Rubber Overmats.

Of course doing all this I was constantly Opening and closing doors and think i managed to really stuff something up!

As promised:

Just ordered sat-nav update card and pin from Comand. I've no idea how to update it once I've got the bits - but that's the fun

The new version as well

As for what I've done to the car, I've just put the battery on charge after it sending me several texts and emails complaining that it was in a "critical" state. Car's a bit of a drama queen.

I did venture briefly into the garage as I was going to give the 190E a quick clean but it's way to cold for me out there today.

Used the 230 as the commuter car today (210 on dog taxi duties).
