Lol I didn't say that bros, I was specific about the models I was referring to

W205s are manufactured in the USA. Their vin numbers start with 5.

Also I gave an example showing that some W204 models were manufactured in South Africa using kits from Germany.

W164 and W166 MLs have vin numbers starting with 4, those ones were manufactured in the USA

W163, W164 and W166 are American manufactured, Tuscaloosa to be precise

You are correct bro... I learnt a few things from you


Compliments bro

Me i change transmission fluid every 31st December

Change of fluid after purchase of tokunbo is a safe practice
I think transmission fluid can rubuor9 2 years depending on usage.... First check the viscosity

If it has not been fixed yet, have your mechanic or rewire check the fan-body under the gear to asertain it if it's not the issue you're having.

Mercedes Benz w202 gear is now fixed. The only thing is that it doesn't select until the car gets warm, I have to cover like 2 km on gear one then restarts the car before it starts selecting to other gears. Gurus in the house what do u think may be the cause of this. My mechanic here said I should continue driving that it will fix itself. And I noticed if I put it on D I hear a jerk sound.

Why would anyone in Africa go thru such stressful and wasteful venture just to get better fuel economy?
Isnt it better to sell off the C280 and get a C180 or C200 or C220?

It's more like penny wise pounds foolish.


Well, to each his own!!!

No way, you should give the detailers/car wash guys a stern warning not to turn on your audio system or find another car wash guy /detailer.

Google is ur friend... U can actually go to Google and download the manual that is specific to ur car . This is the same exact manual u will find in the car ........

For Glk below........ And when it comes ATF don't start changing it anyhow unless needed . If the ATF is still pinkish in color don't change it o. Don't go and look for trouble .. Parts are expensive now .......


We also have Mobil 1 5w40 . This is the European Formula .. Limited supply .. Your glk will love you and thank you........

Lets be wise with our pockets this year . And avoid penny wise pound foolish syndrome
