anyone speak spanish (not OT...)

[guydewdney]

theres a guy on the other forum who is from brazil, and as far as i can make out from his babel-fished writing (very polite... but totally incomprehensible, obv done with a bad translating machine) is that he had a nudge, and the body shop has screwed up his SRS system by not attatching his sensor somewhere near / on the bumper. also somthing to do with the front suspension...

its a 95 202

so - if anyone can speak / write spanish, and can help this guy, (his nearest dealer is two hours drive away...) i think he would appreciate it.

the cost of the service is very loud.

Is this be the customer says HOW MUCH ?

Seriously, you could try this link, it gives a 'back translation' as well.

Edit: Guy, I don't know how good the translator will be at 'technical terms'.

Edit#2: Perhaps he could e-mail Mercedes Spain

Could it be that this person speak portuguese and not spanish and he doesn't comprenda español. Having done business with Brazilians, it's actually more likely that a Brazilian speaks English than he does Spanish.

Yep, it's Portuguese Link

So suggest MB Portugal

He could always start one.

It's nice that you have tried to help this person. Have you considered advising him to try the mbworld forum, there 'might' be someone that can either help or translate his post.

Good luck,
John
