Can you tell us more about that Xentry kit you mentioned at the end. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

@mrapter7 9 күн бұрын

Sure! You can check out more detail in my other video I mentioned - should be in the description! Xentry or Star Diag is what the dealers use. If you’re able to use it to scan, you’ll get pin point accurate information, troubleshooting instructions with diagrams, step by step confirmations within the program, and then a full parts catalogue that can tell you 1) Exact parts needed to repair 2) Exact dealer instructions, tools and methods required with images 3) Ability to adapt or program new modules or parts if needed. There are also things like calculated compression testing within the program, you can shut if individual injectors, view every single sensor value, and other values that are calculated. A lot of numbers are based on algorithms - not specific sensors themselves. They’re only viewable thru something like this. It’s an absolute MUST have and invaluable tool. Have a worry? Scan it. Dealer charges 300-400 for the same scan and print out. The only hardware you need is some sort of laptop with a basic 10 year old i5 , 200 gigs or so of storage for everything if you wanted it, and a specific USB OpenPort that I actually source and sell on my website because there are a million cheap, bad products. I try to filter out the good ones. www.machinedesigns.store Hit me on IG @KoreanSeats if you wanna chat

I have a 2011 e350 CDI 265hp with 250000km. I am really happy with it. I personally prefer the model with the split front lights.

Pre facelift is great! The diesel is a great power plant. Maybe not the most “sporty” but it won’t ever die 😂 I seriously may consider a diesel for my next.

@JamesTheRealSpeaker3.0_ 9 күн бұрын

I think the pre-facelift looks heaps better. I also have a 2000 w210 E240, so the 4 eyes is just a quintessential e-class look to me.

'12 e350 wagon here, fully loaded. Very happy with it. Definitely a sporty couch.

Nice...I'd like to replace my S210 with a Pre-facelift S212 (I like the double lights) Diesel Avant-Garde Wagon.

Can’t wait to get my hands on a pre 2011 E550. Thanks a lot for this guide. Very Informative.

@mrapter7 19 күн бұрын

A 2011 will also be the engine you want - 2012 and newer have the turbo engines. The 2011 e550 with some upgrades like steering wheel, cluster, maybe updated infotainment has got to be the best modern Mercedes you can buy in this sector. Sounds intoxicating, lasts a lifetime and doesn’t ask for much outside of the manufactures needs. Good luck on the purchase! Thanks for watching!

Neat! Coupe? After 2015, cylinder scoring was more or less figured out with steel sleeves! Should be a healthy motor for a while.

@sheldon6531 19 күн бұрын

@@mrapter7 yep, coupe. No issues with scoring, at least with this example. Fingers will remain crossed. Lol

my australian spec 2012 e250CGI has a color screen!! its basically got all the options of the 350E!!

@mrapter7 15 күн бұрын

Color screen is dependent on year - depending on the year, when it was built and where it was sent for, you could have features staggered like that! Awesome!

@TheDaveful 19 күн бұрын

Excellent information, very insightful. You should do a video covering the differences between the trims, like Elegance and Avantgarde

Great vid, subbed. Do you have spacers on your wheels? Looks dope

@mrapter7 16 күн бұрын

Thanks! And no, no spacers, the wheels are properly offset! However I do have a set of spacers that would work well with OEM wheels I am planning on giving away on this channel!

Man those rears lights are a nice mod. Can you drop the link for the seller pls?

@mrapter7 3 күн бұрын

I found them on AliExpress but can’t find them anymore - not sure why. They are by DEPO, a reputable aftermarket company for lights. I have a set of clears still as I swapped back to stock - maybe I should do a giveaway?
