DO NOT LOWER THE FRONT ANY MORE!!! Last week I was exiting a parking lot, and with the breakover angle of the lot to the road my front end kissed the road. I didn't thing anything of it cause it really didn't hit that hard. Well I guess it was hard enough to push the rad support back making the power steering pulley sand a hole through the lower rad hose and also the radiator itself. Weird thing is I had no idea I lost all my coolant until just before arriving home when I glanced and noticed the temps all the way at 120. I blasted the heat and made it home. Got all my parts and today replaced the hoses but also went to replace the thermostat and I snapped one of the three 10mm bolts holding the housing on. Next I noticed the expansion tank is a little gunky and might as well clean it If I'm putting fresh coolant in. As I'm disconnecting all the hoses, I snap the overflow tube because it was so brittle. Needles to say the fucking expansion tank is next to impossible to clean so Im buying a new one along with a new overflow tube on Monday. Sad I don't get to drive the Benz all weekend but I'll be better off with a new clean tank. All that said, my next 190 is going to get bagged so I can have the best of both worlds as far as suspension goes
Meh that's the joys of driving a 33 year old car lol. No luck trying to source an expansion tank from the local part stores. I'll call Mercedes to see which arm and leg they want for one. If not? Then online and then the waiting game
You should lover the 190e and add some air cups, you can bump the car up like 5 inches when its needed, make the car look good always instead of it driving it with nose lift up😂

where do I buy these?
burning oil? exhaust staining paint?
Obviously you think using your phone while driving is cool, it's not, then to have no legal speedometer working just shows how immature you are
Watched this in the toilet 😂 2:51
was at car week, didn't spot y'all where did y'all post up?
yes all week driving around
@@magnacars oh man must of just been unlucky wanted to see your 190E haha
Tell me what happens to the speedometer if you know maybe what is broken cuz i might be able to help you with this

Inozetek Snow Blue
Surely the tesla was a wrap

Shimmy shimmy ya shimmy ya shimmy ya *drank* swalalala

I see moroccan flag on the red car
I don’t think this dude actually likes this car 😔
Doesn’t surprise me that thing is slower than my 1.0 vitz
I think he doesn't like the engine
Agreed but why go out of your way to evo it and then do nothing about the performance
He already said his gonna v8 swap it,he doesn't have enough funds right now
@@fpino4343 good things take time
🫡👌👌💯
So you don’t like working on cars and you don’t really like driving cars? Really strange.
