    E400d 4MATIC oil question

    Hi @nas2021 thanks for your post and reply here. Good to connect with another E400d owner. I'm (kind of) glad to hear of your reply as it gives me some peace of mind that this seems more normal than a potential issue with my vehicle or its engine. I'm due in for a service in a couple of weeks...

    W213 E400d 4matic using oil

    Well as an update to this, at 18,000 miles its now gone through a full 2 litres and now needs some more as its around the minimum again according to the electronic measurement. I've reported it to Mercedes but they didn't seem that interested, they had a quick look at it, but didn't really say...

    E63 type rear diffusor on E400d

    Hi all, I'm interested in having the E63 type rear diffusor on my (2020 W213) E400d. I can see there are aftermarket parts or maybe genuine MB parts. Has anyone done this before? Anywhere in the UK that would do this? Any idea of costs (aftermarket or genuine)? Thanks. (Please don't reply...

    Alloy repair - Southampton area

    Hi all, Can anyone recommend a company to repair an alloy in the Southampton area? Annoyingly I clipped the pavement trying to avoid another car and damaged the alloy. Any recommendations please? Thanks in advance.

    W213 E400d 4matic using oil

    Hi all, Following a previous post asking about engine oil for a W213 E400d 4matic I eventually purchased 1L from Mercedes after it said it needed 1L on the dash. I've been following the indicator closely and it's already heading down the electronic dipstick to the point where it's nearly at...

    Switched 12v supply in front of vehicle

    @geoffus Quick question if I may, how did you get the console to come out? I read that you have to push a card up and it pops out, but mine seems really stiff and I feel I'm going to break it, it 'did' come out slightly, but only on one side. Any tricks or tips? I watched this but mine really...

    Switched 12v supply in front of vehicle

    Awesome! Thanks so much, already have the bits so will get onto that. Really didn't want to route a cable to the back (again!) Thanks again.

    As in the light cluster above the rear view mirror? Is there a switched supply there? Do you have more info? Thanks.

    Switched 12v supply in front of vehicle

    Hi all, On the W213 is there anywhere in the front I can get a switched 12v for dashcam? Or do I have to run it from the fuse box in the back? Thanks.

    E400d 4MATIC oil question

    Thanks for your reply. Yes, will do, I'll see what I can pick up today/tomorrow from a nearby Halfords/garage and add the 0.5L and keep my eye on it. Have 600 mile trip to do on Monday so want to get some added before then. Thanks again.

    E400d 4MATIC oil question

    Hi all, My E400d 4MATIC W213 says it needs an extra 1L of oil, but I don't know what would have been put in it and I'm concerned about which oil to add. The manual says 229.52 and I can't get ahold of a genuine MB 229.52 can of oil, so I need to add 1L before a long journey on Monday...

    E400d W213 Oil Dipstick?

    Thanks for your reply, I suspected that would be the case, I have found it on the screen and it looks low on the 'electronic dipstick' so I just wanted to top it up but trusted an old fashioned one more! I'm really loving it, I had the E350d (W213) before and really liked that engine and said...

    E400d W213 Oil Dipstick?

    Hi all, The electronic dipstick on my E400d W213 is showing that the oil level looks low (it is still saying OK) but looks low on the screen, so I was going to check it the old-fashioned way (level, cold vehicle, then check dipstick), but I cannot find a dipstick in the engine bay! I checked...

    Distronic Retrofit E400d W213

    @Peter S Mine is indeed the same one as this. I contacted Comand and heard back, they told me it can't be done, seems to be mainly due to coding/programming. So even if I managed to get hold of the bits, I'd fail at the last hurdle of getting it all enabled...

    Distronic Retrofit E400d W213

    Thanks Peter S. I just need to figure out if mine would have had stalk or buttons (I'm thinking buttons).
