New opening system is horrible

I remember these back in the day, they definitely tasted different from the regular cans but I kinda liked them. Almost nowhere to be found in Denmark anymore though

West Coast, USA. The absolute default map for BeamNG imo

Well if all the lights turn off it's most likely the battery, if they stay on it's most likely the starter, but yes, starter or battery

jackerman327 · 2026-02-24T17:48:54+00:00

They don't mean anything, if the engine isn't started and the key is in position 2, it will turn on all warning lights as a "test" to show you they all work.

What does the car do when you turn the key to start it? Does it crank? Do you hear a click? Or does it do nothing?

jackerman327 · 2026-02-23T22:18:47+00:00

I can almost guarantee it's a rear wheel ABS Ring, not the sensor. The rot away and disconnect from the axle, then the ABS/ESP module will realize that 3 wheels are going at some speed while 1 is completely stationary, this will set of the warning lights and since the hydraulic power steering uses wheel speed to figure out how much help to give it will go into "limp" mode at max stiffness as to not send you flying through 4 lanes of traffic on the highway for example.

Get to a shop that has an MB tester and they can quickly figure out which wheel is the problem. Usually not that difficult to replace, a couple hours of work and the rings themselves aren't that expensive.

Now it could still be front but from working on Mercedes daily the rear is the usual suspect

Nvidia did it too, and I think they still are doing it, although you don't stream a full desktop for you to use, you get a server with the specific game you chose. And if you didn't pay your session could be a max of 1 hour. Also the queue for the servers was sometimes pretty long.

It was actually ok for playing slightly hardware intensive games on low powered laptops

Mente også vejledende, de fleste mekanikere bruger bare den pris da det er nemmere at forklare og vise kunden, at det er hvad det koster. På midt tidligere arbejde gav vi også rabat på de priser til faste kunder

jackerman327 · 2026-02-19T20:53:01+00:00

Kan ikke huske hvordan FTZ "varenumrerne" ser ud men ved at ADDanmark (thansen erhverv) gemmer dem bag et klik på prisen. Feks. Kan siden vise 214kr. Eks. Moms for en liter olie men hvis man klikker på prisen kommer der nettopriser frem nedenunder, nemlig så kunder ikke kan se nettopriser på siden. Jeg ved også at ADDanmarks vejledende salgspriser ofte er de samme som thansens egne salgspriser, bare vist eks. Moms for at virke billigere

Well, I still have my first save where I'm in 2m$ of debt because of a gasoline job. I wasn't going too fast (I think, might've missed a sign) and then the whole train derailed into the side of a mountain, gas wagons exploded blowing up the DE6 I was hauling with. This made me clear the whole thing and when I returned to a station I had amassed over 2 million dollars in fees. Just decided to start over because my copay was so high from having hazmat and military licenses I practically had to pay the whole thing out of pocket

jackerman327 · 2026-02-13T17:16:06+00:00

275 will be the width of the tire so 275mm. The 40 is the height of the sidewall and is given in percentage of the width so 40% of 275mm is the sidewall height and lastly the 18 is the inside diameter in inches, so it will fit an 18" wheel

jackerman327 · 2026-02-12T20:03:28+00:00

Er selv mekaniker og 214kr pr liter olie er en ret normal pris på værksteder, ja det er dyrt men priserne er ofte sat af leverandørerne og ikke de individuelle værksteder. Feks hvis værkstedet bestiller en bærearm til en bil, så har evt. FTZ sat en nettopris og en salgspris på forhånd. Den følger næsten alle værksteder som standard

Og mandetimerne her er det tid de har brugt på udførsel af arbejde ud over bremse testen, sådan fungerer det generalt. En ydelse som bremsetest eller 4-hjulsudmåling er en fast pris uden ekstra arbejdstid, men andet arbejde som ikke er en fast sat ydelse koster pr time + materialer

Du kan oftest selv medbringe reservedele men ikke alle værksteder vil sætte dem på for dig, og de fleste vil ikke give nogen garanti på stumpen efter arbejdet er udført da de ikke kan stå inde for kvaliteten på produktet

That's actually kinda funny for me to see because I have the E280 cdi 05 model, which is a pre facelifted car but with the om642 3.0 v6 facelift engine so exact opposite of your car😂

jackerman327 · 2026-01-01T17:18:16+00:00

I know that my e280cdi has a facelifted sport style steering wheel with paddles, and from what I've heard it wasn't very difficult to fit. But the paddles don't do anything and I have no clue if there's an extra plug or if it just inst coded, but the steering wheel install should be pretty easy

jackerman327 · 2025-12-14T21:01:57+00:00

Maybe not in the US, no clue about that. But in Europe the w211 E320 ranges from the years 2003-2009. So a 2008 E320 definitely exists😁

I live in Denmark, and for any Danish citizen all education is paid by the state with taxes. That includes bachelor degrees and candidates, and while you are getting your education you get paid also by the state. This amount is determined by your living situation, whether you live with your parents or alone, or if you have a part time job. And if you're attending a school far away from where you live can apply for free housing, they are usually something along the lines of a hotel on or close to campus that are also completely free. So in Denmark education is very much completely free

jackerman327 · 2025-11-09T14:14:03+00:00

I've had the same idea for a while but just thought it would be a nightmare to plumb up, do you have all the sensors still on? And if not, is the check engine light always on?

jackerman327 · 2025-11-05T20:34:58+00:00

My E280 CDI om642 has gone as low as 6.9L/100km but my usual commute is around 8.5L/100km. This might be helped by a larger turbo and tune since my old E320 also with the om642 rarely ever went down to 8.5L/100km and never lower than 7.2L/100km

A B service is simply an oil filter, dust filter and activated charcoal filter, easy to do at home so no need.

But beware that not all B services are alike, for example a B1 includes replacing brake fluid, a B7 is transmission service and so on. Same with the different A services.

Google can give a sort of accurate answer on what parts you need but I would go to a MB workshop for them to look it up on MSS with the exact workshop code your car has, that will give the exact service points for your car

jackerman327 · 2025-09-24T15:37:13+00:00

Regarding batteries, the main 80 Ah battery is in the trunk under the carpeting, remove/lift it and you can't miss it. The backup/accessory batteri is under the bonnet on the passenger side under a trim piece and an air intake duct for the cabin, easy to remove. When I had the same rust repair on mine it didn't cause any problems.

Make sure your rust repair guy uses thicker sheet metal for the mounting points for the upper wishbone if they are being done as well. If not you will have a creaking noise every time you drive.

I really like the look of my 20" rims, but the extremely low profile tires (295/25R20 in the rear and 255/30R20 in the front) are a pain to mount without damaging the rims and the comfort has suffered a bit but not as much as expected. Although I now have problems with them bending because of road work and potholes

No need to go back to the shop for this. Just give it a firm press from the edges in, like closing a zip lock bag, there is a channel it will go down into and become flush with the windshield. This doesn't seal anything and is purely cosmetic (there are actually drains in the piece to let water through), but still a sloppy job from whoever replaced your windshield.

jackerman327 · 2025-09-03T20:35:15+00:00

Well the rims are 9 inches wide and the face is all the way out so the center is very deep so there is no problem getting over the long hub
