[MBZ] EPC makes me crazy
I'm trying to look up parts in the EPC for this S550. I can't find the radiator support stuff and other things around it that the car will need. Navigation is not intuitive. I found the bumper stuff and it shows a lot but some of the numbered parts aren't in the list to figure out what the part numbers are. Kinda hard to find parts (unless staring at another car and pulling them off in which case it is unnecessary) if there are no part numbers. https://www.ilcats.ru/mercedes/?vin=WDDNG86X19A249988=getParts=1=63V=FG=221186=88=030=en This is some russian site but it appears to be the complete EPC.

Re: [MBZ] EPC
You install Virtualbox, then your guest operating system. It is similar to VMware for the most part. It is pretty easy to do - I run ESX boxes full of VMware all day long, and I can assure you that setting up a Virtualbox environment is very simple. You will need to have a CD/DVD with your guest operating system on it, or an ISO. Dan On Aug 29, 2012, at 5:36 PM, Kaleb C.

Re: [MBZ] EPC
Maybe what you really want is the parts book for your car(s)? The parts book has all the exploded diagrams found in the EPC showing all the parts, but no numbers, just a picture. Very useful at the Dealer parts counter. I have one for my wagon, will probably try to get one for my E300. The part numbers get superseded, so the number changes. If you tried to order the old part, I'll bet that Rusty or the dealer should be able to tell you the new part number rather easily. Some things like interior parts are NLA, but the EPC doesn't tell you that, Tom Hanson at the Classic Center is the ultimate authority for those parts. -Max -Original Message- From: mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com [mailto:mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com] On Behalf Of Fmiser Sent: Friday, December 10, 2010 11:47 PM To: Mercedes Discussion List Subject: Re: [MBZ] EPC Max Dillon wrote: Yes, you can have my copies, one of the euro and one of the North American version.

Re: [MBZ] EPC question - CLK optional wheel bolts?
On a stock wheel, yes. 15x6.5 ET45 for the early 15-hole wheels, and the same or maybe 15x7 for the later 8-holers. ET37 is not a drastic change, just puts the centerline of the wheel 8 mm farther out. Together with wider tires than stock this means the edge of the tire is at most an inch or so closer to the inside of the front fender, hence my concern about rubbing. My objective is definitely not to make the car handle *worse*!! A small change in offset like this is well within design parameters for the suspension. (As opposed to, say, lowering a Honda Accord by cutting six inches out of the springs, and then putting steamroller tires on it that stick out three inches from the fenders.)

(As opposed to, say, lowering a Honda Accord by cutting six inches out of the springs, and then putting steamroller tires on it that stick out three inches from the fenders.) For the steering geometry to remain as designed, the ET changes as the wheel width changes. If the wheel gets 12.7 mm wider (1/2) the ET needs to decrease by about half that or 6.35mm. So that to change from a 15x6.5 ET48 to a 15x7 the ET should be about 41mm. 37 mm is USUALLY close enough, but 25 or 30 wouldn't be! Then there's the question about the tire/wheel rubbing on something - that's an entirely different problem and one that usually can't be answered without putting the tires/wheels on the car! Three of my 201s handled 195/65x15 tires on 6 1/2 (ET49) or even 7x15 (ET37) wheels (stock is 185/65x15 on 6x15 ET49 wheels). On the other two, those oversized tire/wheels would rub almost every time I hit a bump.

Re: [MBZ] epc?
I dont' find anything - get invalid KB code when I try those. You are supposed to be in the appropriate catalog (engine or chassis, etc.) when you search by p/n - so a general idea might help, but those don't lok like typical MB p/ns.

Re: [MBZ] epc?
Sunil, That first number appears to be an accessory part number, which normally start with 'B' and have 8 digits following. Haven't seen one with a BQ and 7 digits, but that number does show up on the price list as sheepskin seat covers (unknown fitment), list price of $259 as of last May. The other number is not an MB number. Most accessory numbers are not searchable in the EPC and most are not in the EPC at all. The EPC is intended for replacement parts, not accessories. :) -Dave M. -- Date: Sun, 19 Mar 2006 12:58:40 -0500 From: Sunil Hari [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [MBZ] epc? how do i get the epc? also, let's say I'm staring at a Mercedes parts box.

Re: [MBZ] EPC help needed: 124
Yes, I had garnered from Rusty's website that the radiator is different. As far as I can tell, everything else is the same. I have my eye on a 124 diesel that is probably worth the price of the radiator more to me than a 300E. Some of the 300Es are quite cheap, and might make a good source for parts.

Re: [MBZ] epc
It's cool if you're running XP Pro or 2K. Worldwide options w/ datacards. No pricing. Liked the Blue pages in the old Applications index better than the Shop Materials listings in the new one is about all. It's fully searchable for p/n to model which is real nice. Installation's a bit of a PITA. Takes a fair amount of disk space if you want all the bells whistles, Trucks, buses, etc, but you can install as much or little as you want. v.11.4.3 joe
