Hi, my CLS s/b seems to be developing an intermittent problem with the rear suspension (it only has rear air suspension) It never drops fast, but sometimes overnight I'll find the rear has dropped either a bit, or completely down. Sometimes it looks fine like it hasn't dropped at all. It's...

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll speak with them

Many thanks, I'll get in touch with them Has anyone had experience with using the airconditioner sealant product for an issue like this?

Ah, yes, Midlands!

My 2016 CLS 220d has got a leak on the air conditioning UV dye has located the source of the leak likely deep in the unit itself, which apparently is an absolute pig to get to, requiring the whole dashboard to come out. The independent Merc specialist I use says that they've never actually done...

£300 for both Pair of 19" diameter 8.5" width OEM Mercedes AMG alloy wheels (offset 34.5). Original fitment on 218 CLS, but will also fit some E class and C class plus others (please check yourself if not sure - Mercedes-Benz Fitting Chart and Wheel Fitment Guide | Alloy Wheels Direct )...

Just AMG Line. When I got the car 2nd hand the wheels were painted, and the refurber says all wheels like this were originally diamond cut, whereas I was wondering if there was a point in time when this wasn't true - i.e. before 2018 they were all painted or something and diamond cut as...

Lol, sales reps are always in competition with each other, I guess every one of them had the thought that they needed to look more successful!

So there is no additional protective coat i can keep applying to the wheels to protect them? I guess if the damage is due to impact, probably not...

Wolverhampton. Just deciding whether to refurb the 19s or sell them as they are now. Was wondering about selling them individually as 2 of the 4 have welds, but I guess that wouldn't work if they're painted and everyone else needs a single wheel to be diamond cut to match. I'll probably sell...

What's the best way to ensure the finish lasts? I am running 18s now that I think are diamond cut.

It's one of these wheels - 19 inch AMG Turbine - were these ever available from the factory painted, or were they all always diamond cut?

Yeah, that's partly why I'm asking. Diamond cut looks nice, but from what I hear they need refurbing after a couple years... Seems a strange decision if that's the default manufacturer option?

Went to get a quote for a single alloy refurbishment the other day, for it to be re-powder coated. Wheel is a 19" AMG from a 2016 CLS. The guy said that these wheels must have already been refurbished, as they all come out of the factory diamond cut. It's perfectly possible, as the car was 4...
