Always Diagnostic first, Applause for the tenacity. Lucky ending, One small niggle amongst the others, is that the headlights without a UV protective laquer applied, will be lucky to last 6 weeks before going opaque again.
A lot of the electronic modules are coded for the one car's VIN. They won't work on any other car without being reset to the new VIN. Specialist knowledge and equipment is essential to fixing the computer systems.
Yep -had one of these about 6-7 years ago. Numerous problems with the coded modules. A major issue is that oil seeps out of the gearbox up into the gearbox ECU (in the passenger footwell) and causes chaos. I never got it working properly and sold it with faults. A total crock of sh@t car, possibly the worst one I've ever owned..... Wouldn't touch another. 🙂
Mercs in the early 2000s were crap, loads of electrical issues and rust problems with cheap steal from China and painted interiors that ware away, an Audi TT 1.8 convertible high pressure turbo with 225bhp is a much better bet.

I am surprised they didn't think of plugging in the scanning tool when they bought the car to see the fault codes. I have W210 E200k and first thing the mechanic usually does is to plug in MB Star to check the fault codes. Had they done that they would have saved a lot of money and time figuring out what was wrong. Gus shouldn't just trust the Google experts.

Everyone who owns a post W124 model knows that you need to plug the cars into scanning tool to get the fault codes and eliminate the guess work.
It's odd that the previous owners didn't do that then, wouldn't you say? You're right, the first thing any mech worth a few bob will do is plug in a scan tool (usually an obd2). Still, they got there in the end.
@@random-person1 as a merc owner I understand the frustration of the previous owner.esp with cars that have a lot of electronics.again the previous owner may had tried DIY by googling the symptoms and following Google experts...I also did that just to narrow down the problem but in the end it is always better to get the car plugged into scanning tool so that you don't waste money and time. One time my car went to limp mode and the BAS/ASR/Brake lights all came out. Off the engine and it was ok then it happened again off and on again. Mechanic plugged in the tool and found out the brake switch was faulty a component that was cheap. Replaced it and solved the issue.

Great insights into the pros & cons of changing up your job frequently. Top advice to make sure you’re planning your moves rather than just jumping on the next opportunity. More please 😊
love what you guys are doing leaving your day job to pursue your dreams of owning your own garage, that's the way I want to go having my own garage buying and selling
I know it's for TV but I deal with idiots just about every week who fire the parts cannon at the 'problem' but if they'd just gave it to someone who knows what to do they'd save more money. 😊
Yerp! Not the best model for setting up a business and they are starting to get annoying, no one is that useless? I imagine they both have engineering degrees and it's all for content?
Never throw a parts cannon at a car, always get a diagnosis from someone who knows what they are doing. They spent £££ and hours of work when it wasn't necessary.
k40 module is the first thing to check on the R170. I have owned my 03 230k for 7yrs and self maintain it fixing all the issues shown here. Currently changing out the pse pump :)
Allways use an auto electrician to read fault codes and find faults in modern cars. I had similar scenarios with my LR discovery 2, and the auto spark saved the day many times.
Beautiful car! I've always loved those. Things are so complex in some cars today. Lucky for me, my car shows the error codes on the dash so I can look them up.
This is the second episode of Flipping Bangers I have seen. The first was Mercedes 190. I really liked that one. I must say this was a disappointment. No troubleshooting, no fault code reading, etc. Just buying and swapping random parts without knowing what the cause of the issues is. One has the issues fixed, the other buys a roof which is not needed. Quite illogical.
Useful update. I really fancy one here in the UK but having driven 60k miles in each of 4 X5s and can only think of one fault! Your experience really isn’t good enough.
You can get a coloniser that can spray these parts in the interior and bring the leather back as well, these guys are incredible what they can do. No need to replace these parts, as most will be in the same condition, mercs were not built that well in the early 2000s
did own one ------ cheap soft top very safe very comfy --- not agile like a boxster but for the money --- good open top tour car - spent six months touring europe with mine - didnt miss a beat /// later porsche cabs but budget went up -- good one is worth a look -- might well become rare as many were scrapped because of hairdresser image wifes car etc -- // good on the lads --- tick
Scan tools dont always show faults as in my personal experience but the sparky you have there is well sorted with incredible knowledge and top notch scan tools Anyway Well done lads !!!!!
Any control modules are specific to the individual car and either are not interchangeable or need to be reprogrammed to the car. You can't just change modules and hope to cure a problem, with this sort of car always go direct to a specialist.
So the only problem with the car was the k98 relay and the old codes that needed to be reset. I had of these for 5 years and I’ve worked on every aspect of the car. You have to constantly tinker with it but it’s the best car in the world. I miss my SLK and plan to get another soon.
My god this show really is ridiculous... surely THE FIRST thing they should have done before buying any parts was a diagnostic scan. I really can’t decide if they’re genuinely stupid or just deliberately do things in the most complicated way possible for “entertainment value”...
This car does not have an ODB11 port! It has the old round pin diagnostics which are rare! Unless you have professional expensive snap on tool like was used!
Give them a break, these guys are old school, these cars are highly complicated with many ECU scattered throughout the car, this is a good learning experience for them, now they have Matt to call on to help with the projects they get with multiple electronic issues.

And funnily enough, I can remember my auto shop teacher saying that in todays world, mechanics are being replaced by replacement specialists !! And that was back in 1969 !!!!
I owned one like this, same colour, same engine and spec. It was a lovely car but I did end up having to fix all types of issues. Repainted the interior using special interior paint from Germany, various roof mech sensors, replaced a leaking pneumatic seal on the roof, fixed broken gear selector, replaced roof headlining, replaced broken window mechanisms etc etc. it was endless. The jerky gear selection was fixed by replacing gearbox oil and filter. Another issue to look for (there are many!!!) is the maf sensor which makes the engine run rough. All were completely achievable with just the most basic knowledge. The problem with these guys is that they don’t possess the skills to do these most basic tasks and as a result end up wasting crazy amounts of money. I find this show really frustrating to watch. For anyone considering buying one, they’re lovely to drive and well worth considering. But the interior is extremely brittle and fragile at this age. Just be prepared to do lots of DIY fixes.
Same with mine as well. The pre facelift versions had a design defect with the maf sensor being too low in the pipe resulting in oil coating the sensor. I had to always check and clean the maf like once a month. I ended up bypassing the whole oil separator and airing it to atmosphere. I replaced so many things with that car but I loved it. I plan on buying another soon.
Doesn't make content but yep, most sane peeps diagnose first. It is a bit "old men in shed" style programme which makes the rest of us Gen X look like t@ats!

Parts canon. Doesn't fix programing. Oh the 350 V8 and the 320 V6 are better engines. And there is a better manual gear box version. When you disconnected and reconnect the battery you reset the engine management.
Repainting the cream bits of the dash, but sticking with cream in doorpanels, seats and steering wheel is a mismatch I wouldn’t like. Why don’t you clean wheels and tyres when the wheels were of the car. All other mistakes were already mentioned.

Not sure how an electrical fault could fix a clunking gearbox but still best to steer clear as I think they got lucky with there friendly expert
I love dartboard diagnosis, either take it to a MB dealer or specialist or buy some decent diagnosis equipment. Either way it's better than 'guessing'
