Mercedes Benz Tuning, Coding, Service, Parts & Resources
Adding an oil collector on a direct injection engine can help maintain horsepower and mitigate issues with carbon build up on valves. I first heard of them reading a online forum “discussion” between two tuners and one brings up GAD tuning. One thing I realized there are tuners that I […]
Changing wiper blades, has been best described as something to do often. Once a year or so. This cuts down on chatter and improves their efficacy. Consumer Reports found changing your wiper blades more often is more important than buying the best wiper blades “once”. This soft rubber is often […]

When I first got my Mercedes. I washed it a lot. I wondered is there such a thing as too much washing. And I looked into it by asking on some forums where car nuts, and those who love washing cars reside. It turns out there such a thing as […]
While AMG’s and Brabus sound crazy to begin with, Mercedes engines often have a quiet growl, perhaps especially their V8’s and V12’s. One way to wake the sound up, especially with the m278 engines, is to delete the center resonators. This produces a nice deep boat like cold start, great […]

For some models like the C218 there are air dams in between the grill and the air intake tubes. In the past I haven’t messed with these too much as I have had some weird noise issues from modifying these in the past. Well. No worries here with noise. It […]
If there is one thing you can count on, people have differing opinions. A precursory glance at almost any internet forum regarding oil change tactics, oil theory and how it relates to oil weight, oil change interval. Most people I’ve come across believe the Mercedes 4.6 M278 M157 and M177 […]
Spark plugs actually have a temperature range that they are designed to operate in. A colder spark plug doesn’t fire colder, but it does help evacuate heat from the cylinder head faster.

While the electronics in the aftermarket android setups are fairly good although I would use a usb dac or sound card and usb external dongle for wireless apple car play or android auto. Both of those usb dongles are superior than the stock implementation. Although, I feel that the internal […]
As the push for ever increasing fuel economy has pushed engines to be more efficient and use innovative technology we may not otherwise see, there are some configurations of Mercedes that run a dual battery set-up with one battery primarily, to my knowledge, to power start the engine and power […]
Against the backdrop of a struggle toward a more enlightened view on race Harpers Ferry West Virginia is an intersting location and in general an interesting state. West Virigina of course broke off with Virginia and the south I believe for the expressed reason of the slavery. Harpers Ferry was […]
