Re: [MBZ] 2011 Mercedes Benz GL 350 with 3.0L Bluetec Diesel engine and automatic AWD transmission available for parts

2020-09-21 Thread Max Dillon via Mercedes
I've seen this before.  The wife was driving, going down the road just fine, 
when the guy in front of her flipped a lit cigarette out the window.

The lit cigarette got sucked into the cold air intake and settled on the air 
filter and started a fire.  The wife drove until the smoke got too bad then she 
pulled over and the car just burned up.

Yep, that just happened to another Mercedes in Claremore OK, just a few years 
ago.  I read that on the internet.

Other articles which might interest some:

http://knowhow.napaonline.com/how-to-repair-fiberglass-body-panels/

Fiberglass is a fickle mistress. While amazing things can be created
using a little bit of resin and fiberglass strands, it remains in a
constant state of hardening. Sure, once the initial cure is completed,
this process slows down significantly, over time the resin gets
brittle

http://knowhow.napaonline.com/know-how-notes-how-to-assemble-weather-pack-metri-pack-terminals/
Beginning in the 1970s, GM started using a specialized
weather-resistant terminal design called “Weather Pack”. This modular
terminal system was designed to seal the wires and terminals from
corrosion. These are very common in vehicles built from the 1970s up
to the mid 90s. In the 1990s, Weather Pack terminals gave way to the
upgraded version called “Metri Pack”, which is a similar modular
terminal design with some key improvements. If you are working on the
electrical system on any modern vehicle, you will encounter these
types of terminals

2020-09-21 Thread Dan Penoff via Mercedes
Patrick,

First of all, you need to address your messages to “mercedes@okiebenz.com” to 
get to the list.

Second, the fuel door can be unlocked manually by pulling the trunk liner down 
or out of the way just below the trunk hinge area. At that point you’ll be able 
to see the vacuum actuator fo the fuel door. There will be a red “mushroom” 
shaped knob on it. Gently pull that towards the back of the car (if I recall 
that’s the correct direction) and it will release the fuel door.

I would add that this is covered in the owner’s manual as well, if you have one.

Help!!!  I am looking for a vacuum pump. The one housed in the trunk.
This model have two vacuum ports and three electrical connector pins.
I can lock and unlock doors but fuel filler door is stuck. How do I open it
manually?
Anybody have a good spare for sale?
PM me if you have a spare.
Thank you
Patrick
