@northeastgaragemonkey i'll measure the size when I get home today and update the info here bud.

@gasNgears that would be great. Thank you

The length of the shifter is 7 inches. 3/8th of an inch from the end point to shifter lever hole. 1inch from the pivot end to the mounting bolt hole. 3/8 th of an inch total width. 1 inch and 3 quarters at the rear pivot end where you'll put the mounting bolt to the frame. You'll need to shim the lever according to the thickness of the metal you use and your lever adjustments. Hope this helps your project! Cheers

@@gasNgears much appreciated 🙏 I will give this to my local fabrication shop and see how they get on.

Cheers @Robfowler4499, as far as I am aware 99% there's suppose to be two drains for the sunroof, one on each side. I had a leak only on the right hand side but have heard multiple people say they had leaks on both sides. Yours might be similar situation. Leaking on both left and right hand side drains.

@Wilt8v92 glad to hear that your rig is running sweet!

Can't stand the water in the carpet myself.

Have done a throttle body clean on the ML ? I thinking about doing mine while have some time it's summer Xmas holiday down here!

@Wilt8v92 miss xmas in the summer myself. Its misrable weather here, rainy and cold. Can't do nothing. 😆

@@DavidGrapesVinyard glad you like it. 👍

@@Wilt8v92 do you have the ml55 brake package by any chance?

Yeah thats what I thinking,I have only had it a year,it's got 18inch AMG wheels and I was going to put some 16 inch off-road wheels on it but calipers fouled on the rim! Cher's from NZL mate

@Wilt8v92 I rekon you got the best brake setup for these beasts, mate. Awesome stopping power with 4 pots.

@pennypug97 the face-lift Ml350 has different wiring to early Ml320.

@Leo70780 thanks so much.

@jschoombee mine isn't much different bud. I have changed plugs,valve cover, ofhg and oil cooler gasket, intake manifold gaskets, cleaned throttle body, change ccv hoses, got the brakes sitting waiting to put on, changed transmission oil, diff oil and dealing with electric gremlins on daily basis. But it's a hoot to drive when it does work. Here is where you can find the ista www.e60e61.club/index.html?fbclid=IwY2xjawG5njlleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHeJZ2Flz8J1KjO5jq4rT4C_jpVTdr0I5BL253IprgCxXdXEHjXzVeP-KLg_aem_5mvPO9djsTNaXxGRY8kZmw#about Hope it helps.

Luckily there are so many great resources available for DIY, and not too complicated to work on. It's worth the effort to keep them on the road, they drive comfortably. Thanks for the share

@JoshuaLivingston you could use a fluid extraction pump from the dipstick and suck it out that way. Or change the fluid and drive a little and change again. That way you can replace the fluid in the torque convertor with the freshly added and that gets the most of fluid refreshed. Hope it helps.

@mikem5922 its a fun little suv especially with an N52 engine. This one needed rescuing for sure but it still quit an impressive suv performance wise. Can't go wrong with these, parts are not bad pricewise and readily available.

@ it sure sounds like it does it all. I’m hoping to use it as still fun for me to drive family car for my wife, one child and I. I hear the N52 is a great little engine.

@mikem5922 n52 will keep a smile on your face everytime you floor it. Not bad on gas either. Just needs maintenace upkeep and it's golden.

@RezHardHitter23 congrats man!

Yes, my seats work perfectly now bud. I needed up taking the R56 wiring module out and soldered the wiring directly. The top and bottom seat heating element wires go together into the R53 harness and they both work without any issues. Let me know if you need any more info on that. 👍

@toyotabrony it's perfect for my daily driving purposes. I smash this car around like it's a track build and never have any issues. I also ended up putting new poly bushes for the front suspension arms and new bushes for both the sway bars and its got barely any body at all. Best part is how well it soaks up the bad pot holes. B6 is little pricey and harsh but at that price point I would go buy orange koni struts on sale instead.

@@gasNgears now are the B4 bit firmer since even though it’s oem replacement, they make a slight firmer than oem?

@toyotabrony the shot oem that I took out that were no absolutely trash. These ones corner/handle great around corners. Still firmer but have a nice rebound to them.

@@gasNgears now who’s the bodyroll, nose dive, and back dip when throttle from green light? And did it settle down a bit after first week?

@lmhholding yes it does. All the systems work the same.

@Daniel-e1k3n does the fuel pump makes priming noise after you turn on the ignition? It does sound like a fuel pump issue bud.

@duvieskytg711 I would torque the spacers to the hub with Ford specs and wheel to the spacers with KSP spec, mainly because KSP knows the grading of the metal and would suggest tq value accordingly. Is the spacer specific to your suv?

@samtohidi1631 I got a great deal from Facebook marketplace on the pulley and the pulley puller tool was from amazon.com.

Yes, you can

@@Mini-Driver appreciate the information. Thank you.

You can remove the plug without removing the pan. It does makes it easier with the pan off though.

Yes, steering controls remain functional after this module. That was one of the main reasons why I liked it for my own car. Cheers.

What was the parts used to get the filter in the lid

@williamagostini5043 you can connect the blinkers to the security module under the steering column, that way you'll have the working flashers while locking and unlocking. Cheers.

@@gasNgears Do you have any pictures or directions on where to connect exactly?

@Big_Island_Boi Dealers are unreal with their rates and shop times. Nothing is cheap at the shops, unfortunately. It's a fairly straightforward job and doesn't take too much time.

I going to do my ML430 save me 500$ ..in NZL !

Sounds like your transmission plug adapter is bad. $10 part off Rock Auto. Common issue, the electrical plug as mentioned in this video.

@zuochen5909 www.pelicanparts.com/byv-cooper-cooper-s-r50-r52-r53/b-genuine-mini/c-fuel-intake_c-fuel-system_c-fuel-pumps Hope this helps bud.

How did yours act when it went out, mine hits like it wanted to, then nothing, set for a while and then same thing, if you see this please let me know

@Daniel-e1k3n easy way to check is to remove the rear seat and the tap on the fuel pump itself. Most of the time, it will start working for a little bit. That way, you can tell if it is dying or if the issue is somewhere else. Hope it helps.

Glad it was helpful!

Hi bud, my module was busted too so instead of chasing old modules and reprogramming I went for an easier solution. The biggest question is, is it worth it to pay all that money for module/key reprograming on these old suv's! I would just use the multimeter to see if the wires have operational and just tap into them the way I did. But if you wanna keep the ML pristine and don't mind spending the coin then the reprogramming would be the best choice. Cheers.
