Hello house , Who can help with these codes ? The Rewire that scanned said it’s just some sensors that need to be changed and says it’s not a big deal Is that true? Other faults ... - Tire pressure system inoperative - SRS malfunctions

How significantly different would the cost of maintaining a 2012 E350 be to maintaining a 2015 ML350? Will it cost significantly very much to maintain the ML or the difference wouldn't be much? |

Hello house. I use a c230 benz 2007 model. A rewire did some work on the car and forgot to replace the fan switch (the fan works direct by the way not auto) and I didn’t notice also. I was actually very distracted and drove the car for some hours before I noticed the fan isn’t working and temp stat had gotten to 100... I immediately turned it off and allowed it cool and fixed the fan switch. But few days after this incident I started noticing milky oil in my water tank, at first it was little and then it became much and I was worried. Yesterday I decided to check the engine oil gauge and I saw it was well below minimum. This is my first Mercedes car and I am confused as to what to do... I have parked the car for now... I don’t trust the mechanic I have been using so I guess what I need is what the solution to this problem is and any reputable benz mechanic that can help fix this in Kaduna. Thank you as I await your kind responses...

toobasky: Replace the oil cooler, flush the radiator and cooling system entirely with detergent and water several times to rid the system of any oily milkshake. I just hope your gaskets isn’t blown. You need to run a leak test though. 1 Like |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by toobasky: 7:03pm On Apr 29, 2023 |
Thanks sir for the reply. Please what signs do I check to know if the gasket is blown or not? If it’s blown what cost am I looking at to replace a new one... kingreign: |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by kingreign(m): 7:05pm On Apr 29, 2023 |
toobasky:You need to check engine gasket integrity after carrying out the things I told you and changing oil and filter by carrying out leak test (it’s a test used to check for coolant Escape and gasket issue) 1 Like |

toobasky:Gasket õtîlo. Here's how to know if you have a blown gasket. Turn on the car with the radiator cover off, and if it gushes water in rapid succession, there you have it. Milky substances in your radiator is a major indicator of a blown head gasket. 3 Likes |

Bullet01: Good upgrade, but check for rust underneath and the doors. The engine in the pix, m111 c200 kompressor. It's a beast, hope catalyst is intact if not, you go dey ready to buy fuel oo. Be careful with your cooling system, use coolant, and make sure there's no leakage. Nah strong car be that. 4 Likes |

Good day everyone, I'm expecting my first MB to arrive nigeria this week. 2011 ml350. Is there anything I should know about how to handle it and maintain it? Are there any nice upgrades available for it? Thanks |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Manuella4ace: 6:47am On May 01, 2023 |
HeavenlyBang: Okay |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Nadingo: 7:18am On May 01, 2023 |
shinechinedu:The last generation of the ML350 started in 2011 and I have seen some of them around that were pretty facelifted and giving the 2019 GLE (I think) body kit. Though people do it, but I don't think it's a wise financial decision. Boils down to choice sha. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by jceesquare(m): 8:05am On May 01, 2023 |
HeavenlyBang:Funny how most people think a cat delete would greatly affect fuel economy. I've done straight pipe on a car and even took out it's muffler just for experiment sake and realized it doesn't significantly affect fuel economy (if there was any difference at all). The only thing it did was making me drive spiritedly because of the Joy I was getting from exhaust note; and yeah it was a manual transmission which was more fun to drive with rev matching and gear change. 1 Like |
