I don't have a problem changing OVP's every other month, in lieu of something more serious screwing up, such as ....well any of the expensive $XXX little computers / controller/ modules.... our cars have , this surge that takes our OVP's out? What is up with that? I mean, you are not typically supposed to be changing fuses / relays every other month or year for that matter?

Where's the weak point that takes these OVP's out? I mean, talking "fuses" , for example, if my stereo in the car, takes a fuse out, you know it could just be a fluke, but most likely it is a short somewhere, or the wrong size fuse, or a spike, or...you know I could find , most likely, what caused it to blow and fix the problem so no more fuses...

I am just going to carry a spare ovp and fuel pressure reg.


on a side note, I see how easily a dishonest dealer svc or mechanic could easily ream 1-2-3 mercedes owner's azz when they come in for repair.(AND this is where some might say "oh its soo expensive to maintain.. no sh.it, go pay $859 for a brake job )... NOT saying they are all like that, just the dishonest ones...you know he's got to meet $ quota or has the payment due on the loan for the shop or his pretty little mercedes "next two ovps coming through the door, lets charge them for new cc modules or some other control unit, $1K.." ching ching....
