HarmonicCheeseburger reacted to RichardK in RichardK's nice sensible 4x4 – Friede - 2002 Mercedes ML55 AMG - servicing and fix-list
Busy first day.
23mpg but it was stuck in traffic a bit.
Load
Scotched corner
Unload
Load:
Pause:
Drive, pause again:
I know why no-one ever answers if it has a tow bar. Do Not Look Behind The Bumper. Crunchier than most cereals. Mayve I'll add milk.
Feels like a steering damper, change of PAS fluid, and a service will do it wonders. I have 25mpg in my sights.
No-one ever expects it to pull away on hills the way it does.

Insured: 50% more than MG ZT.
Foldy seat was playing up. Found bowden cable, now foldy seat is playing "down" which is where I wanted it to be for carrying things. I like the way the third-row seats detach.
CD changer responded to a sharp tap and has now spat out CDs and appears to be working.
Job list/stuff list:
Rustproof
Service
Clean wheels
New tyres
Make sunhole work
Rebuild keys into new fobs (genuine if possible)
Replace driver's seat plastics
Rebuild rear bench
Fix wee trim things
Polish headlights
Add "rust fee Merc ML tailgate" to eBay watch list (usual bit under light, hardly a stress)
Find comedy spare wheel carrier
Tested my A4 RTK plate on it. Looks good.
Obtain expedition roof rack
Obtain bloody huge LED light bar
Get revenge on misaligned LED headlights
Nothing preventing me using it so it'll be working hard tomorrow delivering and collecting things from Scotland...

HarmonicCheeseburger reacted to Parky in The grumpy thread
Someone did the same to an old Vauxhall of mine back in the early nineties. I ended up removing the knackered passenger door lock and a mix of fibreglass and filler smoothed it all off so it had that smooth look
Drivers side called for a bit of hammering and a bigger, thicker washer (vaguely recall cutting up a thick rubber floor mat to make it with a school compass) and along with a new lock it all ended up looking ok. Meant I couldnt unlock the passenger door from the outside but that wasnt a problem ever.
Bloody annoying. I know who did it so if you were an MOT assistant at LJK Setright BMW in Barkingside in 1992, I havent forgotten sunshine....

Actually summoned the energy to clean out the car today. Vacuumed, dressed the plastics, gave it a squirt of air freshener even got my fancy little brushes out and cleaned the air vents 😄
