HELP! My car is running perfect!
 

I've gotten pretty much all the bugs worked out of my car. Especially on the highway, I have never in my life owned a car that I've LOOKED FORWARD to driving so much, as this car. Smooth as silk.

There is, however, a fan button that popped off, I have to figure out how to get that back on. Photo attached. I'm guessing that something is wrong on one end or the other, either the shaft coming out or something missing on the button itself. I previously tried to glue the 2 together, but that's risky, as glue might drip down onto the electronics or something. What do you recommend?

i would say just push it back on. i have noticed in several brands of cars that thoes buttons come off very easy. and they just push back on.

Superglue?

No seriously, don't do that.

Overtighten
 

Since your car is running perfectly...why not overtighten something and strip the threads? Then you can come back to the forum and have something to do.

Everything looks normal. No glue just a firm push, that worked for me.

jbach you have cursededed your self!

That's what I usually do, if it isn't broken I play with it until it breaks. :o

wanna start on one of mine:rolleyes: . No really, I can drop off my daily, that should keep you busy for years to come:D .

Car running perfect, you say. Well, lets see what we can fawk with then.

Mine pop out but when I push the off button the one that was pushed in pops out and lands in the ashtray.

I think a small dab of model glue will do

You don't usualyy see athread topic like this.

Good Work!

Of course not. It's tempting the M-B gods.

Just call mercedes and they will probably buy it from you.:D Great unusual addition to their collection. I have never heard of one before. Fix the button first though.;)

NOOOOOOO, Don't do that:eek: .They'll just have their engineers rip it apart to find out why:rolleyes:

What did it take to solve the brake boost problem?

when my mbz don't have anything wrong with them I usually take something apart so that I can spend the rest of the day and evening putting it back the way it was before I started messing with it. Its even more fun when its about 15 degres out. Somebody needs to explain to my wife why we have 2 mbzs worth about $4000 together and leave our 2 $30,000 Plus vehicles outside , I need help, I'm running out of BS that someday will convince her.:confused: :D

Brake boost problem
 

TangoFox, thanks for checking up on that problem and replying to my earlier thread. I took your advice, figured it must be the check valve. I did buy one, haven't put it on yet, maybe I can get to it today.

Thanks,

Push fan button in all the way, doesn't stay on.
 

Nah, the fan button flies right off when pushed again. Maybe I'll try some construction adhesive.

Thanks,

Jeff
