Re: The 300e w124 has an issue with petrol fumes.
I have 28 years of whooshing with my 300-24s. Very typical. Regrettably, I am unable to recall if it is vacuum or pressure. Plus, I let it go this morning, so there's no use in trying again. Tomorrow, I will do my best to remember. I apologise. The fuel system and injection are also new features, by...

When it was brought in a few months ago, they apparently failed to reset the oil change interval reminder, presuming they changed the oil at that time. Updating software will NOT cause that symbol to appear.

Re: Restoring an E350e ICE
Over time, coolant seeped into the engine, causing it to misfire. I figured the plug was to blame, but even before the misfiring started, the engine was running smoothly, but now it's not. I think there's a spot that needs gasket replacement and maybe other parts that require cleaning or replacement...

Restoring an E350e ICE
I need someone to fix the engine on my 2017 E350e; does anybody know a reliable independent mechanic? Most ideal if located in Essex.

Re: Oil that differs for R129
