I only ride these rims in winter. Therefore, the approach to them is not very pedantic). I just want something close to the original. found information on the paint code: 9705, 9735 can be used for repairs.If you are not too particular, you can use Astral Silver (MB OE color) to spray paint your wheels.
Yes, of course, first the primer will be baked in the oven, then the paint will also be baked in the oven and everything will be varnished. Thank youPS: Don't forget to spray clear coat after, to protect from salt spray during winter time.
Front bumper installed today. With a spoiler, I doubt it.Nice progress! Where is the front bumper/spoiler?
Thank you

Have you taken it apart and inspected the teeth on the plastic gears?Hi all. I had a problem with the odometer. More precisely, with a daily mileage counter. When it is reset, the counter does not spin and clicks are heard. Kilometers continue to turn well.
I'm afraid to remove the speedometer needle springHave you taken it apart and inspected the teeth on the plastic gears?
You don't have to remove the needle to inspect the gears, they are located on the side... more info here.I'm afraid to remove the speedometer needle spring
All entries talk about an electronic speedometer. I have a regular speedometer with a speedometer cable.You don't have to remove the needle to inspect the gears, they are located on the side... more info here.
I wish I saw this post sooner - I had multiple odometer problems with my 1987 300D. I have a similar setup, there the spinning cable gets plugged in the back (not electronic).Hi all.

Thank god for my grandfather teaches me this method. By always reset when the car is still or it gets trouble. Especially when refueling. This habit stuck with me even with newer cars.When it was sent back to me, the odometer worked but the trip portion did not. The root cause was the assembly that has the numbers with the push bar for resetting the trip. The spring wasn't enough tension to push it- and there was a plastic part broken. This happens when someone is pushing reset while the car is moving![]()
I'm not entirely convinced that resetting the trip odo while the car is in motion can actually break parts. Years ago I looked into this and could see any way pressing the reset could cause damage, if the car was in motion vs stopped. However, I may have been looking at an electronic speedo (034/036) instead of mechanical... not sure if there is a difference between the two designs, for the trip odo. Probably a good topic for a separate thread...When it was sent back to me, the odometer worked but the trip portion did not.

Hello Guest !
We wanted to let you know about a new resource that is now available to all 500Eboard members. This is a comprehensive database of all US-market (and soon to include Canadian-market) 500E and E500 models delivered for the 1992 through 1994 model years.
Data for this resource has been compiled continuously since mid-2003, and much of this information is seeing the light of day for the very first time ever. This new resource will allow you to utilize 500Eboard research and resources to track specific cars, their sale history, documented modifications, and other information that has surfaced over the years.
We are also providing analytics about the cars' production. This means that if you are curious as to how many "Signal Red" cars were produced for the US market with a black interior, specifically in Model Year 1993, you can now easily find this information. You can also find aggregated information -- for example, how many "Black Pearl" cars were imported into the US over the three-year span.
You can always find and enjoy this resource by clicking here (bookmark the site for easy reference!), or by going to the “500Eboard Registry and VIN Database” sub-forum below. You can also find a VIN Database button at the top of your screen, for easy access.
We hope you enjoy this resource. A LOT of blood, sweat and tears over nearly 23 years have gone into its creation.
Cheers,
500Eboard Management
