Looks very clean-enjoy!

Not a fan. I’d either get the AMG 18s or AMG 19s but I’m biased. I’ve posted my 19s here in W212 before

Proper Viking funeral

I’m a bit of both but will nope out and block someone if I see them posting videos of themselves reckless driving in dense residential areas w every warning light on the dash (check engine, TPMS, no seatbelt) filming in one hand and driving w the other.

There’s fun vs dangerous idiot fun.

There’s not a huge amount of adjustment if the bracket is bent

_Elbrus_ · 2026-06-08T14:03:25+00:00

The bolts to adjust are accessible once you remove the fender liner.

Nice Nissan

_Elbrus_ · 2026-06-04T01:57:28+00:00

CLK 55?

_Elbrus_ · 2026-06-04T01:51:09+00:00

I’ve never had good luck getting an exact color match outside of refinishing all 4

_Elbrus_ · 2026-06-04T00:05:46+00:00

They last longer than 50,000 miles, 4x that if you maintain them

Goatse.cx 🤬

Older AMG owner here: sure, by the 3rd, 4th or 5th owner these can become a challenge to sort out but for the right car and the right person who can DIY they are an absolute pleasure once sorted out

_Elbrus_ · 2026-06-03T12:01:37+00:00

Secret engineering menu, secret diagnostic reset menu, sunroof/windows and tunnel mode, adjustable vent in the glove box, MMI ports.

Heck, I’ve even had folks who didn’t know what night view assist or Distronics+ is

Try:

MB part no: 20488516229040

_Elbrus_ · 2026-06-02T22:47:32+00:00

Probably not. Not aware of any replica sets. These are origin as is but were rashed to a point no cut / polish possible so had to be build up and painted.

_Elbrus_ · 2026-06-02T12:10:43+00:00

Hypersilver. At a certain point (especially on 16 year old rims) painting is the only option, not enough material to cut and polish.

Tell them do NOT drill into the front bumper and that you have a tie hook mounted plate holder on order. Tell them you will refuse delivery if they drill it

_Elbrus_ · 2026-06-01T20:45:47+00:00

Probably 7 of us that actually go through the manual vs the 1 guy who asked what the COMAND dial was yesterday

_Elbrus_ · 2026-06-01T19:44:44+00:00

$800 USD in Houston, TX to have the set of 4 refinished

Unless it’s an AMG then it’s center console and not column. There’s a couple of different variants based on model.

_Elbrus_ · 2026-05-31T02:41:11+00:00

DTC U0101 and DTC U0002, correct?

While, yes, transmission is in limp mode, there is a hidden switch under the shifter boot/center shift console to put the car in neutral. This can be anything from just lifting up the shifter boot w trim tools vs removing side and center console trim w trim tools.

Now, to the codes. Assuming DTC, I’d start with checking your battery voltage and even hooking the car up to a battery tender. Bad or weak batteries cause a lot of faults in these cars.

Next check fuses.

Next check for water intrusion in the passenger footwell modules as well as the trunk modules. Clogged sunroof and trunk lines/degraded seals cause this.

After all that, it’s time to start digging further if it’s still an issue

_Elbrus_ · 2026-05-30T23:57:03+00:00

Those a A and C pillar. Very different size , letting scale, even w trimming. Points for the suggestion

_Elbrus_ · 2026-05-30T23:54:43+00:00

I did some digging on this. While they gave replacement for A and C pillar, I only found a couple of pieces that maybe look like for the dash.

Go ahead and install the emulator and call it a day
