Maybe potus coming out to help us "clean the floors"? Can we look forward to retardant drops from AF1? That would be epic. -- Forwarded message - From: Karl Wittnebel Date: Fri, Sep 11, 2020, 10:07 AM Subject: Fw: TFR over Reno/Tahoe, NV on Saturday, September 12, 2020 To: Karl

[MBZ] oil grade for m119

2019-12-04 Thread Karl W via Mercedes
My father is reliving his misspent youth in our e420 with the 2.82 diff this week and noticed the oil pressure is low at idle. It is only halfway down the stick but I figured I would send him to get it changed. What oil do you guys run in these v8s? I am thinking 10w40 due to the cool 50 degree

Re: [MBZ] OT Tires

2015-01-30 Thread Karl W via Mercedes
Run flats are a scam. They cost more, go flat more, and no one will patch or plug one. So you buy another whole overpriced tire every time you have a flat. And they are heavier rotating mass. All cost, no benefit. Everything gets new michelins except the 300tdt running hankooks for $85 a copy.

Re: [MBZ] OT Weak cell signals

2015-01-25 Thread Karl W via Mercedes
We had a microcell innernet thingy from att but it died without warning which was sort of catastrophic from a professional standpoint. They require a gps signal to work which would also cause it to stop periodically without notice. And it only works with five phones so nobody else can use it eg
