@rideair 2014 build date aligns with a 2015 install date. With the other one being matching brand but older, my bet is it was a blowout and they just wanted it to match. I’m going to say that wasn’t put on the Carfax, because of that reason and definitely the dealer did not complete that service. But like I said before I didn’t do tires before because people tend to have a brand preference. But whomever wins, I will cover the install cost of a set of 4 tires, the buyer just has to cover the tire price itself.
@seller Thanks for pointing me to the Carfax. But at a quick glance, it does raise another question (sorry). In the Carfax, it shows all four tires being replaced 1/22/2015 at the dealership, but the listing says date codes from 2001-2014. I can't imagine the dealership putting that old of tires on a car. Has there been possible wheel/tire swapping going on to take the better wheels/tires off this car (for some reason), then putting older wheels/tires back on it from another car?
@rideair not fully up to temp at that point, the drive video shows the temp as well where it needs to be.
@rideair you are right these cars are 20 years old now and will need maintenance items. Most of items you listed have been completed by Mercedes of Silver Spring and are notated in the Carfax itself, not just the stamped booklet. But the VMI will also show everything that has been completed in detail. Since I know most people seem to have a favorite brand of tire, I held off on replacing them before sale. And pictures under the vanity cover will be uploaded shortly. Also these are 20 year old cars, and second hand or aftermarket parts can be sourced at significantly less money. Right now between myself and my partner we own 4 of these W211 CDI’s, and 3 of them have well over 200k and one knocking on 300k.
@seller There is a picture of the cars operating temp #136. Was that picture taking before/after the car was/was not completely warmed up?
Buyers, though these "can" be great cars, and not saying this is a bad car, it does not come without a certain cost. Some parts are getting hard to find (glowplugs, glowplug relay) Just did both on one (own two) of my CDI's, and my MB guy that has been working on these cars for over 40 years had to get the relay from Germany (rebuilt) and the plugs from two different location. He said; "If the plug breaks coming out, there is no easy way to get the remaining out". That along with lower control arms, engine/trans mount, fluid flushes, both battery's, etc.. These cars at this point with over 150K miles, unless you have full documentation of service, plan to spend $3,500-$5,000 getting it back and fully sorted. Again, can be great car, and not saying this car is bad, but unless the seller can show full history, it's a crap shoot at best. I can tell you this car alone, will be a "minimum" of $2,500 just in new tires, full fluid service, possible (two) new batterys, etc.. It would be interesting to see under the engine cover for possible "black death" (that's another maintenance item, injector seals). Though the booked maybe stamped, I'd want to see full-service records to see exactly what has/had not been done to this car. Unless all the things above have been recently done, plan on it.
@mikelaca I can get a quote on repairing the leather seatback. The Carfax is pretty descriptive, but in the next couple days Ill reach out to MB of Silver Spring and see if I can get a VMI, and go through the service booklet and see what is stamped at each service and submit them.
@alexwahl6 Does this car have Bluetooth pairing for cell phone calls? Do you have service records from the last 3-5 years you can upload? Have you received a quote for what it would cost to repair the driver seat back panel leather storage compartment sag?
