2019 Mercedes B-Class
B-Class has been a solid seller for Mercedes-Benz. Its design followed the time-honoured two-box theme 鈥?one box for the engine, the other for everything else. The 2013 version sticks to the basics, but it does so with much more dynamism. The face is jewelled, there are distinctive character lines through the side profile and the tail is neatly bustled. It鈥檚 a good-looking rig that also comes with more than its fair share of utility. The front box houses all-new powertrains. As it stands in Europe, all B-Class gasoline-powered models will come with the same 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder. It uses the latest direct injection and variable valve timing on both the intake and exhaust cams along with an intercooled turbocharger. What鈥檚 up in the air at this point is what will arrive in Canada in the fourth quarter of 2012 (yes, a year from now!) 鈥?both power and engine size-wise.
In Europe, the B 180 tested pushed 122 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque (insufficient for Canada), while the B 200 benefited from 156 hp and 184 lb-ft (good enough for a zero-to-100-kilometres-an-hour run of 8.4 seconds). The latter is achieved by bumping the turbo鈥檚 boost pressure from 11.7 to 14.7 psi. Acceptable, but it鈥檚 well below the current B 200 Turbo鈥檚 193 hp. As such, Canada will get a different engine, albeit from the same family. At this point, the engine is a state secret. However, the North American engine will use the same block but with a longer stroke. This means a 1.8L derivative. Regardless, the new B-Class engines will develop more power than the outgoing models. B-Class is still almost a year away from hitting Canadian roads and what actually turns up is far from known, it is destined to hit the road running. It has a much keener style and significantly more substance. Power, sadly, remains a mystery, but the European models provided an enjoyable drive capable of delivering uncompromised utility.
To check it, turn the motor off and remove the black nut on the lid. It should be about 1/2 inch from the top. Can 20 inch rims fit on a clk Mercedes? What size are the front speakers of a 1995 Mercedes e320? I would just go with a 21" or 22" as the ride is much better! 2007, but it's going to look really really stupid. Where is power steering oil reservoir on 1988 Mercedes Benz 300E? It is on the right side of the engine, kind of low, near the front. It looks strange, like a little hat. It is a round plastic knob which is about an inch diameter and that is on top of a large silver metal disk. Will 2007 16 inch wrangler rims fit a 2002 wrangler with stock 15 inch rims stock 309.515 tires? Can a 2000 Mercedes S430 fit 22 inch rims?
AZMT end of the line. Benzworld. For warranty work there is no reason not to go to the dealer. Once it is out of warranty it is up to the individual. I have a good and bad experiences with both. I shall say with total honesty that my experiences at the dealership were almost entirely based on the service advisor I had. I good one resulted in proper repairs, and very fair fee charged for services below the bottom line. My first W140 I took to Auto Steigler in Encino, CA. Rather a rotten ending as they repeatedly did unnecessary repair work not discussed on original estimate. One example was replacing the entire trunk locking mechanism without previous consult and when there was zero complaint from about its functionality. I refused to pay for the repair and even told them to put the old one back on. This happened on three occasions, the last one was a unrequested replacement of cats on my 1993 500 when it was actually the wiring harness which had disintegrated.
