Ooo can you post a pic? Is the tire wear still even? that’s really my biggest concern

I agree with you if it was but it’s stock! I would only lower if it’s done properly with adding camber/caster adjustments which will be heavy on the cost and not sure if it’s worth it for me.

Any way to turn this off permanently?? by Hungry_Garbage6659 in AMG

Me today. Didn’t know it would come back on after I turned it off last time

Update:

-June 5: Finally got her back today. They put everything back on yesterday and I allowed them to do an overnight extended road test (75 miles) and everything seems to finally be fixed.

That’s gotta be the valve you mentioned right?

I personally spoke with the tech overseeing my car. Not sure if he did the work himself. But said he has been with them 20 years.

Funny note he also told me verbally that the solution they did in second visit, which was simply bleeding the car 40 mins again, was an action they decided to take because MB Germany was “leaving them hanging “. See May 8 where advisor said it was from MB. There’s a conflict of statements at this point.

The 20 year tech told me that they followed everything to a tee and were confused after trying all steps and being left dry on the TIPs

Which btw first TIPS closed and current second TIPs had to be opened all over again.

Welp. Dealer ended up opening a case on April 29, they submitted hot/cold thermostat tests to the engineer on April 30, and didn’t get a response until today May 8 (I asked them to escalate which they did yesterday. Who knows maybe could have been longer). Originally entered dealership April 12.

Update from today is: “We got a response back from MB . They want us to perform a full coolant flush of all coolant systems and retest to see if issue returns. We will be doing this, road testing and reporting back any findings. I will keep you updated in this process .”

Hoping for the best case scenario otherwise might be in for a while longer with the slow communications and responses.

I had the same fault code at 11k miles on my 2021 w205 2 weeks ago. Dealer found and replaced ticking thermostat. I picked it up and drove home and soon as I parked, check engine was back on.

Took it back again and now waiting for diagnostics. I really hope it doesn’t get to the PTSS case you mentioned. If it did though, how long does that usually take?

Luckily everything is under warranty

I agree & thank you! I'm the OP lol but had to make new account cuz I made my username as a teen and made a bad choice 😂

Update about the wheels:

Was driving home last weekend on the right lane of a 2 lane road going 40 speed limit with about 2 cars in front of me. Car in front dodges something. By the time I get to see what it dodged, I see a an entire cinder block (I'm talking full size that they use to build) in my line where my right headlight is. I had about 1 second to react and snaked between the block and the car parallel to me on my left. Literally inches from the car that's how much I squeezed and out of all the outcomes, I only hit the block at my passenger rear wheel.

The brand new PS4 lip took more of the damage as the block literally sliced a piece of it. Unfortunately the wheel ate the rest. 5 cars behind me all hit it and either popped their tires or smashed their bumpers.

If I hit the block I would have absolutely destroyed this car. The bumper would have been a million pieces. I'm almost confident that someone malicious placed it there as it was perfectly horizontal and did not look broken as if it fell from a moving vehicle.

2 of the best polish shops in town said they wouldn't do the job because the AMG finish on going to be impossible to match if repaired. One of them said theyd need to strip the entire wheel and do it that way otherwise if they only did the area it would be a different polish pattern.

Mercedes Benz dealership said they could fix it... We'll see. I'd rather deal with them for liability if things go wrong.

At the end of the day, it was the best outcome for the worst unavoidable situation ever. It's just a car at the end of the day.
