Re: Compatibility of power steering

Can you identify someone capable of reconditioning the pump?

It is often a compromised seal.


Is it advisable to enquire at nearby garages?

Best of luck!

Re: Compatibility of power steering

Upon searching that component number online, it was identified as compatible with an ML. The pump installed in your automobile is used in many Mercedes models. I recommend reaching out to Mercedes Newcastle via their eBay store to get a price and verify compatibility. They often exhibit competitive ...

Re: Please Help with the EGR Fault Code!

At a certain juncture, the expenses associated with emissions-related repairs or replacements become prohibitive, rendering the removal of the DPF and EGR more appealing (until one incurs fines and must either reinstate the components or dispose of the vehicle). I anticipate that emissions testing w...

Re: Please Help with the EGR Fault Code!

I suspect the EGR is likely malfunctioning, however I am less certain regarding the DPF. The DPF appears to be regenerating normally, having successfully performed a regeneration within the last 5 kilometres. According to Bimmertool, the DPF contains 15.89g of soot and approximately 41.32g of ash. I...

Replaced the upper timing chain and tensioner in situ following a local independent's diagnosis of startup rattling, while I identified subpar performance and a pronounced diesel odour. The chain had actually elongated and...

Re: My vehicle fails to start after the throttle body reset.

What method did you use to reset the throttle body? Depressing the accelerator pedal fully while the ignition is in position II does not reset any systems; rather, it deceives the vehicle into believing it is being driven aggressively, prompting it to initiate adaptive responses. It is unlikely that...

Re: C55 oil: entertainment and activities

Avoid altering oil levels on a C55 M113 engine, since it consumes oil excessively. Crucially, there is no indicator of engine oil pressure on the display; none whatever. If it depletes, it detonates. I always get my oil and filters from MB Newcastle, since it is economical and easy. At 153,000 miles...
