    Which one do you have, a C300 or C250? Mine is a 2013 C250 with 104k miles. Bought it with 36k miles and I only had to replace the alternator and just regular maintenance of course.
    And for the subframe, mine is great. I did get a warranty for it but I don’t need it. It probably depends where you live such as a place where it snows. I’m here in cali so that probably explains why mine is in great condition.

    #11 -- Seat belt buckle. The wire that provides the signal to the SRS controller when the seatbelt is latched breaks. The solution is to replace the buckle. Search CZcams on how to replace the buckle. This was a problem with the W203, as well. The symptom is that the airbag light comes on. After replacing the buckle, you need a proper Mercedes scanner, such as the LAUNCH Creader Elite 2.0 BENZ, to clear the airbag code.

    If you had a m156 with that mileage, you'd be looking at a lot more than 600 pounds lol just 1 camshaft is £700, not to mention camshaft adjusters, lifters etc. Good video, you missed rusted break lines tho, that will need doing sooner or later due to poor material choice from factory.

    Cap 🧢 been had mines for 4 years and keeping up with maintenance and using oem parts, no issues at all, you probably have hella miles or got a lemon 🍋 but mines soild, even tuned by projectA and dropped on bc coils, even after throwing on after market headers, no
    Issues at all

      wait till your timing chain slips the car, its a nightmare.

  • @jsweetsgetsfitjoeysweet330

    I mean the car is over ten years old it’s going to develop issues overtime especially with high miles

      Mine is over 104k miles and runs great. I only had to replace my alternator that’s it.

    I have the wheel speed sensor error, I checked with OBD and also with the secret menu, it's the rear right.
    I replaced it, and deleted the error code. The error comes back. I noticed if I drive very slow, (walking speed), all four sensors show a reading in the menu. Only after I speed up the rear right shows zero.
    Could it be the magnetic ring, on the hub?
    If it is, it seems like a big job, the part is cheap, not sure if I should attempt it myself.
    Any thoughts?

    • @mattgreba
      @mattgreba  Před 26 dny

      @paulthilwind8492 Sounds like the abs ring. If you never changed the brake discs it might take you a while. There's plenty youtube videos on how to do it though. Before you do that I would try to double check the ring. Get a q tip and put it in the wheel speed sensor area to clean from any dirt or grease. Then get a phone camera in there when you spin the hub and record if there's anything obvious you could see so you can have 100% that's it's abs ring. You will see if it's damaged. Good luck

      I've had the same fault, ABS and ESP not working, it was solved by replacing the ABS ring

    • @paulthilwind8492
      @paulthilwind8492 Před 25 dny

      Is it an easy job? Does the ring need heating up? I have seen some videos, for different cars, where it is heated up, to fit it easier

      I have the same issue as in the video but after I have changed the speed sensor and the front bearing the problem did not disapeear .Any help will be much apreciated.

    Hi. Because of the same problem I have replaced the sensor first and the wheel bearing after and still no fix. Anyone any idea how to fix the issue?

    • @mattgreba
      @mattgreba  Před 16 dny

      Does it still show that one of the wheels is not sending signal to the computer? Did you try the secret menu? Do you have any codes?

    • @firstsat2000
      @firstsat2000 Před 15 dny

      Yes. In the secret menu still shows the same problem same wheel and my foxwell scanner and my carly scanner shows the same.
