The global warming S430.

[MBZ] Clean your drain holes
Spring cleaning check list item. I was getting a wet passenger footwell and thought it may have been from using the coin op wash wand and dislodged something. It dried up and I parked the car 180* from standard. Then, it rained a goodly amount and the carpet got wet again. That means it was not resolved, so I pop the hood again and use a flashlight all over to see what is plugged up. The air scoop on that side was hosting a large sloshing puddle. I got up under it and poked my finger in the weep hole. Like a pregnant woman whose water breaks splashes out and drains it all. Change your fuses too. clay 2002 s430 - Victor, a Stately & well tailored chap 1974 450sl - Frosch - Two tone green 1972 220D - Gump - She was green, simple and ran 1995 E300D - Gave her life to save me against a Dame in a SUV POS 1987 SDL - Beware Nigerian Scammers ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
