asamwababy:How do you manage to ignore so many mentions of your moniker |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 9:29am On Jun 12, 2020 |
Jazzlite: Because those two monikers are the same person. Conductor and this one. |

nuwell:There is a common situation when a new generation of cars are being produced. After one or 2 problems are being discovered by end users from the first batch of a new generation, car company's are wise enough to make corrections when producing another batch/ different year of the same generation. I.e The 2008/ 2009 c300 are synonymous with IES / STEERING LOCK failure,which has been corrected from the 2010 and above. 2007 ,2008,2009 Camry's where recalled by Toyota due to brake and acceleration problems,which were corrected from the 2010 and 2011. 1 Like |

My findings: kingreign, heavenlybang, and co are all Mercedes Benz fans. But have issues with the current reliability ratings of the brand. There's nothing to be ashamed of in admitting that the Mercedes brand dropped the ball. |

HeavenlyBang: You are right! To many extent |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by foolbuster: 10:37am On Jun 12, 2020 |
shortgun: Whats the bases of the comparison with infiniti now? Or is the infiniti also a beast? That your gle450 does 0-60 in 6.4s. What is beast like in that abeg. ordinary 08 lexus es350 does that in 6.6s. I guess its also a beast |

dannybrasky: Lol, I assure you that car got plenty of mods beside the obvious engine swap. Probably got a tranny swap, and upgraded drivetrain parts. Seems to be a rotary turbo engine swap. |

HeavenlyBang:Danm! Crazy something. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Eddee(m): 11:15am On Jun 12, 2020 |
dannybrasky:Mehn, that beetle is scary af! Launch control is perfect and besides it weighs in at half of its competitors. P.S - A benz was involved before the usual suspects say we are derailing! 1 Like |

HeavenlyBang: Radau.toworks will have a great time rebuilding this for the owner. Read those don't last and you have to keep a gallon of engine oil handy |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 11:21am On Jun 12, 2020 |
Eddee: Pretty much. Dem dey put oil the way dem dey put fuel. Plenty use precautions or you'll need an engine rebuild every couple dozen thousand miles. Those cars had to revved high to get any power from them, I think that's what kills them ultimately. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by dannybrasky(m): 11:30am On Jun 12, 2020 |
Eddee: Saved by the day. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Eddee(m): 11:44am On Jun 12, 2020 |
HeavenlyBang: You've said it all. dannybrasky: Men dey urge for here - especially as our brother no dey allow dem win even if na pyrrhic victory, before you know now dem don ban this moniker wer I dey manage. Still on still, nothing go make me go up against any beetle or any contraption that shouldn't make it to a race track, but somehow is in pole position to compete on said track. 2 Likes |

rexlims: Won't worry about the ESP just yet, the CEL should be your immediate priority. Plug any generic scanner in, and post the codes. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 11:57am On Jun 12, 2020 |
Eddee: Rule of thumb is to avoid any rickety car trying to race. At least in the US/Germany. If it looks like it shouldn't be racing but wants to race, it's almost definitely a trap. 1 Like |
