This guy is a moron.  It's a ML350 not a GL diesel.  Still, would be 
worth harvesting parts


Does this truck run and drive? Where is it located? I'd like to come 
look at it


Not for 500


 You sent

???

Huh


 You sent

What does that mean not for 500?

It’s does not run for 500 parts or whole truck for parts


 You sent

OK, so you're parting it out?

Yes or whole truck 500


 You sent

OK I would be interested to take a look at it

Ok


 You sent

Today? Where?

Maybe tomorrow after work


 You sent

OK let me know when and where

I'll take 4 bennies and the trailer and take it apart like the other 
one, get a good trans and drivetrain, pull bits off the engine, any 
modules I can get, wheels tires and interior bits.  It has a tow pkg so 
if the module is still in there that would be a good deal.


That is, if the moron gets back to me

[MBZ] Well $#!+

2023-06-04 Thread Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes
I decided to fool around with the CL600 this afternoon as it had been throwing 
codes for O2 sensors and the cam sensor I had recently changed. Battery charged 
up, started fine and… no codes!  

Gave it a wash then out for a little spin. It was running great (these things 
are REALLY fast). Got 2.5mi up the road and turned around in a little shopping 
center lot then headed back. 

Got about 1/4mi, went into a limp mode, transmission acting up, not running 
well, finally died. I got it on the side of the road ok then hooked up the 
scanner to see what it was unhappy about. Multiple misfires on 6-8 zylinders, a 
cam sensor code again, and some other random code for something I forget. 

I walked home (got my steps!) and came back in the GL with tools and battery. I 
got thinking while I was walking that maybe the battery was bad as it had run 
down a coupla times but charged right back up (and was fine earlier). Jumped up 
a good new battery and still no joy. I then swapped it in, nope. Engine will 
spin fine, barely runs at low rough idle then dies, but now it sounds like the 
starter bendix is not disengaging. Weird. 

It was doing some other kinda weird electrical things too. So I’m wondering if 
there’s some electrical fault somewhere or if it’s something else with the 
engine ECU or wiring or something. Don’t know why it would just happen like 
that unless the heat made something really unhappy. 

I’m gonna let it sit awhile and see if it cools down later. If it still won’t 
go I guess I’ll get the trailer hooked up and go collect it in the morning. 

Bah.
