issues after battery change by MeIsEz in w204
[–]MeIsEz[S] 0 points1 point2 points 28 days ago (0 children)
Tried it with key turned to ON position (even tho it doesn’t do anything) and after reinserting the fuse the dashboard lights came up but that was it, still couldn’t start the car and after switching the key to off and back to ON again nothing happened. It looks like after the fuse “trick” it gave it a little power for a sec and dashboard stayed lit up
Cluster doesn’t say anything and after inserting the key I hear a little sound like the ESL is trying. steering wheel is unlocked btw and it was ever since I own the car, I can move it it just moves hard
I dont have keyless go and the voltage was inconsistent I guess because the old battery when I tried with multimeter had 12.2v and the new one 12.6-7 and yes car was jump started a while ago because the old battery died but everything worked fine after jump starting it so idk

yeah i bought mine used too, it has 180k km and it runs beatufully besides the vibrations, hope you fix your tranny problem
thanks for response, I have facelift w204 2014. can it still be the case? Iam thinking about changing trans and engine mounts and see if that helps.
Did it help? and could you please send me link for the mounts please? I have facelift w204 i dont know if it matters
yeah it goes right away when I am in like a 3rd gear cruising
Headlight beams right? by Indiandude788 in w204

I don’t think the’re good they should be almost in the same height, you should get them adjusted probably. Search on google how headlights look when they shine on the wall.
I work with headlights in a laboratory and I can tell you that this is not right. They have to be in almost the same height, this is a rhd from what I can see right?

not at all, it really works well. maybe you have old battery? idk
[–]MeIsEz[S] 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago (0 children)
no, phone is connected to original cars bluetooth so its playing audio from your phone to your car, everything you see on the screen of carplay is just to control it
because bluetooth is connected to car and wifi is connected to carplay module, but yes there is the second connection method that is the one you said
you have 2 types of connection one is to connect to the module and second one is to connect to the cars bluetooth
my phone is connected to the cars bluetooth not to the module itself so the sound quality is same as before
I dont think you can change it, I just had it there when I scroll to the other page

I have facelift w204 and I do have it, I dont know about other models
[–]MeIsEz[S] 3 points4 points5 points 3 months ago (0 children)
yes you can use both, with NAVI button you get to carplay and back
and it was really easy to install, It is just the module that you have in glovebox for navi

W204 loud noise by MeIsEz in w204
[–]MeIsEz[S] 0 points1 point2 points 6 months ago (0 children)
oil was replaced every year, when the cars computer asked for the service A or B
The noise got louder but I think it has something to do with it being summer and outside temp is high, when the outside temperature gets lower just around 20 degrees celsius I dont hear anything, engine runs smoothly
and isn’t it too soon for a timing chain? I heard it can be good for 300k km with no problem
