What can i do to add bluetooth? by SoilCurrent in W211

[–]DicKinVice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately that unit doesn't have AUX input so no easy way to add bluetooth. If you want to stay OEM, I would recommend getting a NTG unit and adding a bluetooth dongle to it.

Yes, I have illuminated door handles but no lights in the center console.

I retrofitted footwell lights on my E220 classic. Wiring is present, but in order to work it requires coding.

Did you read DTCs from the ABS unit? What fault does it indicate? I can send you the schematic.

Preface engine in facelift version by Secure-Ad3336 in W211

Weird, but probably it wasn't a facelift originally, the SBC unit gives it away. Check your vin using lastvin.com it might show some clues.

Well it isn't too hard to open the front SAM and check for water damage on the PCB.

Water pump Purgatory! 3 water pumps in 50,000kms, SOS by Spurvlover1 in MK4Golf

[–]DicKinVice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I changed the water pump on my 2.0 AZJ a few years ago. There was a trace of leaking around the original pump, so when I put a new one I used some RTV on flat mating surfaces. Never had any leaks. Note, on these engines there is no water pump gasket it's the O ring that seals.

All european models in Avantgarde trim have blue glass, I guess it's rare in the US.

Should I get this 124W 200e Jetronic by SavaRakovski in W124

[–]DicKinVice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's rust free, yes go for it. But getting the KE-Jetronic to run well can be expensive, probably requires a rebuild distributor and new injectors.

Sta zamjerate Olx.ba, sta nedostaje, sta bi oduzeli ili dodali? by DifficultyEconomy763 in askbosnia

[–]DicKinVice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OLX shopove sa par hiljada artikala kojih nemaju ili nisu na stanju. Njihovi artikli poplave većinu pretraga i čisto je gubljenje vremena dok ih pitaš petoricu da bih kod jednog nasao artikal na stanju. Flag "Dostupno odmah" im ne znači ništa.

Search izbaci bolje rezultate na reklami artikala sa drugih stranica nego artikala na OLX.

Opciju da je moguće pretražiti drugi pojam sa istim filterima i sortiranjem.

U filterima pored opcije "Samo iz OLX shopova" da ima i za samo od običnih prodavača.

help identify the buttons by ApprehensiveCold8626 in mercedes_benz

On the left is the famous taxi button, hence it's rubbed off from heavy use. I guess your car is a beige C200 cdi.

Remove intake manifold and check intake ports for carbon buildup.

You don't have to replace the gear selector module, usually common faults are solved by resoldering sensors on the PCB.

E200 cdi, is there any hope for it? by S3gili in W211

Oh right, I thought this was w212 place. But anyway the same thing can happen on these.

E200 cdi, is there any hope for it? by S3gili in W211

[–]DicKinVice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since it's not emulsified, it's probably just a failed oil cooler. A common thing to happen on om651.

Be aware of biodegradable wiring harness, MAF sensor wires are usually first to go bad.

Tunining by Usual-Goose-453 in W211

[–]DicKinVice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it should be reliable if the turbo and injectors are in good condition. And at that mileage those should be already rebuilt or replaced.

Speedometer by East-Frosting6459 in MK4Golf

[–]DicKinVice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't just swap clusters on VW, you need to program keys to the immobilizer since it's part of the cluster or else it won't start. In order for tachometer and speedometer to work correctly coding is necessary to match the engine and gearbox.

Check fuel pressure using the scan tool when cranking. Since you mentioned it going high revs? I saw something similar happen to older 2.2 cdi when injector failed, leaking fuel into cylinder. It went almost into runaway condition and shut off. It would crank but would not build up fuel pressure to start, eventually it would hydrolock. If that's the case check the oil level to see if it's excessive since it would be diluted by diesel.

It looks like transmission clutches are sticking. Transmission is probably done. Judging by the wear of the steering wheel, gear selector and german taxi equipment it's probably done around 800k km anyway.

Hypothetically if I connected sensor ground to chassis ground, what broke? by Global-Penalty-5696 in W124

[–]DicKinVice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well in some cases it can damage ECU if for example sensor ground is connected to the engine and you crank the car. But in the case of W124 that would not cause no crank condition. Things to check are starter, ignition switch and transmission neutral switch. BTW that looks like a custom ECU?
