On this channel you will see mainly vehicle related videos mainly containing Mercedes Benz's although I do film quite a few car shows/meets. There will be the odd video that is not vehicle related such as exploring a water tower, but videos like that are few and far between.

Do The Aerial Antenna FM / AM to DAB Splitter / Adapter Actually Work? 4K
I’m having a really hard time unplugging it from the back. Seems older models have screws there, where mine does not lock in by screws. Any advise?
A lot of these locks require the ignition to be on position 1 in order for the plug to be removed as a security feature.
Love the Brit accent, but you short shrift your video when you mumble...open your mouth and use your tongue, it's not all lips. For anyone not acquainted with the accent, it's not good.
Sorry I have a speaking disability, guess I shouldn't make UA-cam videos.
Anyone know if it's possible to retrofit the post facelift W124 wiper onto the pre-facelift cars? I think the post-lift wipers clamshell comes off more easily.
The wiper housing should but the frame that bolts to the car will not.
@@OnTheDriveok, thank you for reply. I should have known it wouldn't be that easy 😅
well done thats my next job i hope the main fuel hose copes with the clamping though
It should, to my knowledge that's the cars original one.
He s not shown how to change fuel filter 😢😢
Nice to see that you took the Baby Benz to the show 👍
Yeah she goes out occasionally, whenever I get the time
Yep somebody give him some Tunes
my 190e 2.3 also does that rough idling but only for about 5-8seconds after startup and after that it jumps on the normal 1000rpm idle for a while and comes back down to 750rpm normal idle. it doesnt do it always but most of the times. what could be the issue? i changed the breather hoses and it didnt fix the shaking on startup but it did make the normal idle more smooth.
Have you checked for any vacuum leaks?
@@OnTheDrive yes changed the breather/vacuum hoses. They were all pretty cracked but it didnt fix the issue.
Hi, nice video!! Would you tell me the colour of the wire you connect individually at the 3 point sensor? I got only four wires on my car (connected like yours) but no wire for the single pin. Many thanks in advance!!!
😢
Hello, only just seen your reply, unfortunately I don't have this car anymore so wouldn't be able to check.
@@OnTheDrive Hello and thanks for your replay. I'm having troubles with that sensor in my car. Love your videos!! Thanks again!!!
Great video, keep up the good work.
Thank you very much.
Thanks for a different method! You were a big help🥰
You're very welcome, nice to see my videos are helping.
Which crimp connector did you use to make the modifications I am having the same issues sound only from one speaker. I need to try your way
I went online on Amazon and bout a radio wiring kit, comes with all the connectors that I took out and used for this plug instead, was cheaper to buy a kit than the connectors alone.
Would have been helpful to tell viewers where the sender is located as it's not self-evident if you lift the carpeting in the trunk. Let me address that for those needing to do this job. The sender unit is mounted in the trunk / boot behind the vertical carpeting tacked onto the rear firewall. You won't immediately see it because it's high up on the same plane as the lid hinges to the right of centre. You're gonna have to kneel to see it. It requires a 46 mm socket to undo - worth getting as you will also need it to undo the fuel strainer. It's only a tenner. *NOTE* that senders can sometimes be repaired / cleaned and put back into service. Worth having a go because new senders, if you can find them in stock, go from £100 to £200 notes. Second hand they're easily £90 upwards - and at that price you have to wonder if a thirty year old + sender, that's most likely as old as the one that just failed you, is an economical buy.
My apologies, I personally thought it would be obvious where the sender is knowing the fuel tank is in the boot. I'm not sure where your looking but most fuel senders I saw were around the £30 mark which is what I paid for that one if memory serves me correct.
Very nice interior !
Thank you, it's taken a while.
Hey Man, wher edid you buy that plastic coupler in between the hoses, cannot find this part anywhere. What is the name....? Thanks in advance
Hello, all the parts I buy are usually from the Mercedes dealership near me.
Was für ein Idiot !!!!
hi, hope u can help, does the ignition tumbler can have issues where the car cant start? for example my car w201 has dashlight on, and fuel pump working, but when trying to crank, no crank or start occurs (no start), new battery has been installed, and previously the car dies all of sudden when driving and all electrical power goes off, can this be the reason? Desperate for help Thank you!
Sorry for the delay, yes it can, if you watch one of my newer videos my ignition switch broke where it would crank the engine, start the pumps and bring on the ignition lights and the engine would run in the crank position on the key, but would die when they key was put back on run if that makes sense.
Can you do a video on replacing silicon windscreen hole protector
Hole protector?
Cannot understand anything you says
OK cool, what would you like me to do about my speaking disability?
Maybe noise cancelling mic 🎤 and more clear slow speaking will help. Good video thanks
Hey there, I’ve been looking for a MB Tex interior in medium red FOREVeR!!! Could you help me source one???
Unfortunately they're very rare and seldom come up for sale.
Hello, my car is no starting a i just found one of the idle hose fallen on engine. Can this couse it?
I wouldn't have thought so, it would effect the idle though.
@@OnTheDrive it was, that is idle hose, but if its sucking false air, there goes no Fuel to the engine.
What language is this?
English with German accent
Japanese, hope this helps.
did you still have 8v at the plug when the new pump was fitted
Sorry I never checked that as I new the pump was faulty due to the burnt smell.
should it not be 12v at the pump plug
Off the top of my head I can't remember.
on my 190e the gauge wont move at all and will stay at on empty but its full what does this mean?
It could be the sender if faulty as they can stick but you'd have to test it.
How many liters coolant for 190e 2.0? Please help, thanks!
They should take about 4 Liters
The little thin brown pipe attached to the breather hose. Where is that meant to be connected? Recently done my rocker gasket and that's now loose
It goes to the fuel accumulator, to the right on the intake.
Thank you
You're welcome
Nice video. Thank you....I’m suscriptor in this moment.
Thank you very much.
Mate I apologize for wankers commenting on your accent. Your video massively helpful. My ignition won’t unlock at all so I going have break the tumbler. 1985 190d 2.5
Thank you very much, there's always a couple like that, that won't be so pleasant but probably easier to buy a whole new assembly.
Everyone seems to have hearing disabilities. I heard Everything he said
Thank you for the positive comment.
it wasn't flipping plugged in, what a waste of time !
I believe it was plugged in and it was tested as it received the signal from the antenna and converted it to dab, unless you mean the antenna connection?
Hey, from where did you take the plus wire?
Truthfully I'm not sure, some previous owner did some bodging in it's past which I took out nearly 10 years ago so I just re-used that power source, but they should take the power from a power strip behind the plastic panel underneath the dashboard.
That's a gorgeous interior you've got there.
Thank you very much, it's quite rare in that colour and leather too.
Can I get the diagram socket in this video? Thank you
I don't have a diagram but in the description I say what the pins do.
Can the drain holes get clogged up at the bottom end and do they need to be cleared too? If so do you know how to do this? I know there are wire kits etc available. Thanks
I usually get a long stiff buy flexible pipe and give them a poke, and gentle pour water.
How has the new hose held up? Has the oil in the air filter housing disappeared? Ive got the same issue with mine. Cheers
Pretty good so have, I haven't noticed any oil in the intake hose, will have to take the air filter lid of and check in there too.
@@OnTheDrivehas the issue solved?
😭 *promo sm*
If you solder the two flat strips on rear of rheostat together, (the corroded ones), your lights will work at full brightness only, a good cheap fix. Cheers from Tasmania!
I was considering that but I wanted to have full functionality.
I have my driver side window it rolls down but it won’t roll up on my 190e ? Do you think it’s a switch or regulator problem
Electric? If it goes down, then the wiring, motor and regulator sound like they are working correctly, it will most likely be a broken switch.
hi, did u ever find out the solution? my 190e is doing the exact same thing but on the passenger side
I changed both engine temperature sensors (4-pins sensor and 3-pin sensor) in my 1990 MB W124 230E. New sensors are original mercedes parts, but engine temperature gauge is still dead 😮 I have no idea what is wrong here. 🙄😐
I had so many problems as well, even resorting to genuine parts bought from a Mercedes dealership that still didn't work fully, so in the last part I just used two different sensors.
Sorry u need to zoom in more 😢
HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT SPEAKING IN A LANGUAGE THAT CAN BE UNDERSTOOD ?????
Yes but I have a speaking disability, so I assume you think that all people with speaking disabilities shouldn't do youtube?
Great video but wasnt quite sure if the presenter was speaking English. Very difficult to understand.
The hard to understand will be my speaking disability, I'm very much speaking English.
My apologies for an earlier remark, it must be the sound quality.
Good luck with the repair. Hope its something minor like a fuse......
Thanks, the repair was a faulty ignition switch, not too hard to do, just timely.
So what needs to be replaced ? To find a short or a new window switch ? How did you know it wasn’t the window regulator ?
Because the motor didn't click when the switches were pressed, and the switch on each side didn't illuminate.
@@OnTheDriveso what was it the switch or?
@@OnTheDrivei put working switch to the rear windows but don’t hear a click from motor. What do you think it is?
would be more helpful if I could understand what he's saying.
You're right, It would be helpful if I didn't have a speaking disability, but it is what it is.
Hi can i ask is it normal for the breather to smoke as yours is in the video
It depends on how much really.
Next time please open your mouth so that we can hear what you are saying.
Next time find another video to watch, if you don't like watching videos from someone with speaking difficulties you might want to try to find videos elsewhere.
