Re: 07 S550: thermostat
I should print something yes. I also need to bring in my receipt for the thermostat from Jan actually.

Re: 07 S550: thermostat
Found the thermostat test. I have never run this before because it has specific starting temperature requirements and I guess it's always over 55C when I've tried before. So I ran it. 20250402_171519.jpg 20250402_172751.jpg Looks like it graphs a min and max acceptable temperature and then the red p...

Re: 07 S550: thermostat
Perfect coolant level. That's not it. Can't be air either as it initially was fine for a while then started this fluctuation. It's not going high and coming down. It's coming up to normal and then dipping.

Re: W221 S550 hunt
So going to do road hazard replacement through MB Warwick. Neat. Have an appt 1pm Sat so I guess I'll inquire about my thermostat issue then.

Re: 07 S550: thermostat
I agree. Called dealer parts and asked about any warranty. They said I have to have service look at it and determine if there is actually a defective thermostat or something else (or it's "fine"). If they determine there is a defect with the thermostat they will actually replace it. Includ...

Re: Mercedes E63S thread
- Front struts and mounts. The front seems under damped to me. It just feels lame, which checks out since I am dealing with 103k on original shocks (made by Monroe for some totally inexplicable reason). This is going to be another tremendous expense though I think buying new is worth it unlike at t...

Re: 07 S550: thermostat
I think my thermostat is defective? On my drive home temps fluctuate kind of like what was happening originally. Oddly it never seems to happen on my drive into work. Can't really explain that. But I may see if I can get another one from the dealer under the warranty.

Re: W221 S550 hunt
Continental DWS06+ and an alignment. 106,040 miles, done today. They even washed it. I guess they would have also replaced the fob remote battery if it needed it. 20250104_153644.jpg Well that was a waste. Heard and felt this but I concluded I would drive on it straight to Tire Pros. That was a mis...
