It happened to me as well. I was at the shop for clearing airbag code and while pulling out on the first intersection the engine sputter. Turned out MAF gave up at that very moment, but the shop got some name calling in my mind. Start with checking the codes.

I have a different model so can't be of much help. You have what MB calls a W208 and there is a dedicated forum for those. Look in the Coupe section by scrolling down from here.

So if you have a gear shift that has an adaptation at the limit...

Which S-class do you have? By the way, I've never heard of a command unit on an S-class or any Mercedes. You could do it with a car computer (or a cell phone with video output) and use the Comand screen via AUX video or TV AUX but I don't see any easy way to avoid an external keyboard and mouse.

While it's true the hubcentric feature locates the wheel, the lug bolts still have to hold it on, and consequently they must match the wheel. Anything made for folks with stars in their eyes and their head in the clouds will be expensive. This describes "spacers" for sure.

Thanks for all the advice and opinions. It is going to the dealer on Monday, they think the noisy lifter is caused by a broken tube or line that injects oil on the lifter. They want to open it up and check. There are no oil leaks, the engine is dry, and no smoke or excessive residue in tailpipes. I will keep you posted. Any other input would be appreciated.

You have a much better chance of getting a straight answer from Pela.

i am not sure what kind of units the fill pressure and fill time are in, but i do know that the specs are as i said before, -20 to+20 for fill time and -2000 to +2000 for fill pressure. I don't think i have ever seen a 722.9 transmission where the fill pressure was at the positive or negative limit, i am not sure what would make it be at the limit, maybe a leaking piston. By the way these values are simply calculated, since there is...

The cooling system is a SEALED system. There should be no need to add any coolant. If you are adding coolant, there is a leak in the system that must be fixed ASAP.
