Pre-Facelift W204 Overview
Here you can see a look at my view of the Preface lift W204 Chassis. In my experience they have been fairly reliable vehicles with minor issues and very average repair needs. This is a car I usually recommend as a solid car to buy.

    Why there is no mentioning about the length of a new strut? From the factory, they come inflated and thus extended. So you can't put them right in without deflating with a STAR diagnostics tool! This is totally different story then. Waste of time if trying to put without the costly STAR tool!!!

    • @MercedesTech
      @MercedesTech 3 дня назад

      This is not true. They are empty from the factory, if they were then they wouldn’t bottom out when you drop the car. They are stiffer because it is a new strut but you can’t use a scanner to release pressure out an empty strut that’s not connected to the system. They are definitely a little harder to get in than the old one out but that’s just the nature of the job.

    • @Igor8859
      @Igor8859 3 дня назад

      @@MercedesTech they are not empty. There is a lot of references across the web where people search for the way to deflate them before installing. There is tons of mentioning about how to deflate them by connecting to the car computer and diagnostics tool to be able to fit the strut. But these appear only if you specifically search for them after loosing time and struggling. However when you search just “airstrut replacement” there is no mention of this potential problem. Which is bad. People encounter this problem over and over. So as myself. I called the strut supplier and they confirmed that that one normally would use STAR to deflate. Waste of time. Need to mention this issue from the beginning. Videos like yours, if mention this issue, would prevent me from losing tons of time. And sure, strut supplier is an asshole in the first place. But that’s why we look for hints and frankly advice on channels like yours.

      You should be able to use the old one, especially if it’s still on the line. There’s a small risk of it leaking but I’ve never seen it personally. You don’t really want to spread it apart as they do crack in half very easily. Otherwise you may be able to get a replacement at the dealer separately or online

    If you have the setting turned on that uses a fog light as you steer at low speeds that usually fades or dims in and out when using halogen bulbs. What happens when you try with LED in? Does it fade in and out or just sharp on and off each side as turn or does it flicker as the LEDs don't like being dimmed ?

  • @myredute
    @myredute 3 месяца назад

    Your problem was the zip tie which actually tightens the sharp angle for the wiring to drop into the area intended by Mercedes, who never put a zip tie on the trunk bracket. I've got a 2003 W211 E320 which is 20 years old. It has no zip tie & the brown wire never looks like breaking. The zip tie can actually cut the wire over a number of years & this, my friend, is your problem. Mercedes actually have the wiring routed down the underside of the trunk bracket, held in place by clips pushed into holes in the bracket. This is NOT a common problem on the W211 if you don't interfere with the wiring. Take the zip tie off & leave the wiring alone, as Mercedes intended!!!!!
