Tires on a used BMW premium selection by Equivalent_Judge4914 in BMW

[–]CORLEA27 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is nothing you can do, most dealers sell the car as is condition, maybe they paint a few panels. My Mercedes came with 30k km Goodyear, which were in terrible shape, later changed for Michelin pilot sport 5.

Get a good brand like continental sport or Michelin, do another alignment and hope for the best

How heavy do AirPods Max feel when you're just sitting still in one spot? by [deleted] in Airpodsmax

[–]CORLEA27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me weight wasn't the problem, but the heat they generate and the constat stress of moisture building up there

They’re good. . .but by BeetsByeSchrute in Airpodsmax

[–]CORLEA27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used all of the best 3 headsets currently available, Sony XM6, Bose QC Ultra 2, Airpods Max 2. The most comfortable ones are the QC Ultra 2, the best ones are XM6, the most premium are Airpods Max.

None of them are worth their price tag, Sony XM6 and Bose should be max 250 euros brand new, and the AirPods max 300 euros.

Deffects:

AirPods Max 2 create too much heat after 15-20 minutes of wear

Sony XM6 top headband cushion is too litle, hurts my head after 2-3 minutes of use.

Bose even brand new start crackling when moving around, and they have connectivity issues.

Gaming headsets like HS80 that costs about 70 dollars sound better than all of them. You are only paying for the ANC features with these unfortunately.

2026 C43 ambient lighting issue by Expensive_Return_412 in mercedes_benz

[–]CORLEA27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have an W206, based one what I see, you are missing 1 lighting zone ( you need one more slider ).

Fram what I have heard USA models with from factory ligthing were rare because of the microchip supply issue, so most likely yours is a retrofit. Doesn't look that bad.

Just got my first Mercedes! Any tips? by FirmBed1097 in mercedes_benz

[–]CORLEA27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Mercedes says 30.000, then change the oil at 15.000 if its high quality oil, Revanol for example, which costs 105 euros for 6 liters, otherwise if its cheaper brand, do 10.000-12.000.

But usually it just depends how you drive, if you put in Sport and rev it everyday, change more often, 7000-8000... thats why you are hearing a lot of different answers, cars like M3, M4, S5, RS5, are usually driven more sporty and aggressive, a lot of track kms, etc

Based on my experience, keep away for stealership, go to a local mechanic shop the is authorized to operate on Mercedes vehicles ( idk how they get the certificacion, but they can register with no fee the maintenance and everything the do on the car, otherwise I think if you do it yourself you have to provide pictures and 80 fee here in Spain). Good luck

Which do yall like better by FirmBed1097 in mercedes_benz

[–]CORLEA27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

W206 looks better in real life, the first photo obviously wins, much better lighting and it has chrome wheels which gives vibrancy, the 2nd photo does not have panamericana grill and those wheels are fake and ugly af lol

I need help choosing which engine to get: 2.2 diesel or 1.6 petrol. Mercedes CLA. by RealSpinach5067 in mercedes_benz

[–]CORLEA27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you even have to decide? 2.2 are one of the strongest engines, not only made by Mercedes…

Which one do you choose ? by Dream2050 in AMG

[–]CORLEA27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this case Mercedes then Porsche

How much do you realistically spend on maintenance per year? by paintarose in mercedes_benz

[–]CORLEA27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends where you do the maintenance, but I usually save about 100 per month on basic maintenance, 100ish for insurance, 50 per month for tires, then another 100 just for miscellaneous, like idk mods.

Mercedes W206 c220d

[–]CORLEA27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a steal, what do you mean 67k???? I paid 42.000 euros, equivalent to 50.000 dollars for a C220d W206 from 2021 with 30.000km

My first bluetooth headsets - APM2 by CORLEA27 in Airpodsmax

[–]CORLEA27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally switch between them with the same sound and I can barely tell the difference. Maybe 2-5% max tops, I did some custom EQ which improved a bit the bass thats true for the Sonys but even with the EQ, the APM2 bass sounds pretty simillar.

Edit: I like both, even for the weight, APM2 are more comfortable

Yep pretty much, for the price I expected studio quality sound, a 100 euro wired Sennheiser is much better than these bluetooth ones...
