Chapter 648 Common Faults of Mercedes-Benz E
Chapter 638: Common Faults of Mercedes-Benz E
The procedures went very smoothly, Fang Yuan and Boss Wang were very happy.

Originally, according to the rules, in order to fear that there would be points deducted for violations, Fang Yuan should deposit part of the car payment and pay it a week later. Because Boss Wang was in a hurry to go abroad, he promised that there was no violation, and he gave more than 1 yuan in insurance Fang Yuan is also embarrassed to mention this matter again, and pays all the house and car payments directly. Even if there is a violation, if there is less, he will deal with it by himself, and if there is more, he will ask Sister Liu to solve it.

Fang Yuan thought that the current expert-level vehicle condition appraisal skills for used cars could not check for violations, which was still a bit imperfect.

Fang Yuan knew that Master and Uncle Sun were checking the condition of the car, so he was a little curious that they came back from the auto repair shop so soon, but he was embarrassed to ask in front of Boss Wang. Same as your own judgment.

Things went very smoothly, Fang Yuan said to Boss Wang: "Where are you going? I'll send you there."

"Don't bother you." Boss Wang liked this straightforward young man very much, and shook hands with Fang Yuan, "I'll just take a taxi and go."

Song Guoyuan and Sun Yanming shook hands with Boss Wang one by one to say goodbye, and sent him to the car. Sun Yanming put his arms around Fang Yuan's shoulders and reported the good news to him with a smile: "Lao Song just checked the engine room and covering parts, and nothing was dismantled. There are no traces, the water tank has not been replaced at all, we did pick up a big leak, hahaha."

Sun Yanming looked up to the sky and laughed, in a very good mood, Fang Yuan was a little puzzled: "Did you go to the auto repair shop?"

"You and Lao Song are both masters of car condition appraisal. You said it's okay, why should I go to the auto repair shop?" Of course I did.

"Haha." Song Guoyuan came over and said, "It's late today and I can't go to transfer the ownership. It's the same when I go back to Jingcheng and put it on the shelf first, and then I will change the oil and water for Lao Sun and give it a fine wash."

Sun Yanming was overjoyed, and yelled at Song Guoyuan: "You must give me a [-]% discount."

Song Guoyuan knew that Sun Yanming was happy, and he was joking with himself, so he slapped him on the shoulder: "The labor and capital are hemorrhaging, and I will give you all for free, and I will change all the tires for you."

"Change tires?" Sun Yanming's skills and experience were incomparable to Song Guoyuan's. He was stunned when he heard that Song Guoyuan was going to change his tires. He quickly walked back to his Mercedes-Benz E and looked down.

Sun Yanming knows that tire patterns and uses are various, but it is very simple to see whether it is new or old, just look at the date on the side and the depth of the groove.

"A commercial vehicle, what are you doing so sporty?" Surrounded by a circle, Sun Yanming discovered that this Mercedes-Benz E is actually using mandarin duck tires with narrow front and wide rear, or ultra-flat run-flat tires. He asked Song Guoyuan a little puzzled , "Although the tires are 16 years old, the grooves are still relatively deep. It's not time to replace them, right?"

"You don't understand this. The ultra-flat run-flat tires of the Mercedes-Benz E are prone to blowouts. This is a common problem. After replacement, it is safer, more comfortable, and less noisy." Song Guoyuan said to Fang Yuan, "You give the old Sun explain."

Fang Yuan immediately explained the reason why the Mercedes-Benz E is prone to flat tires without even thinking about it. Song Guoyuan bowed his head in satisfaction, and Sun Yanming was really convinced. common problem, I know it's easy to leak oil, a camshaft, what else is common?"

"Yes, Mercedes-Benz has reached the end of its life, and there is no engine that does not leak oil. It is only three years old now, and it is too early to leak oil.

This Mercedes-Benz E front four-wheel drive, its engine model is 276 823, which is a 3.0 twin-turbocharged V6 engine, with a maximum horsepower of 272, a maximum power of 200, a maximum torque of 400, and an official zero-hundred-speed acceleration of 5.7. The fuel consumption is 8.7, and the comprehensive fuel consumption should actually be more than ten oils.

From the book point of view, the data is still very good.However, compared with the CT6 V6 engine, the output of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class V6 is gentler and more gradual. It does not have the sudden and rapid power of American cars, but the speed-up of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class V6 is not slow, but more gentle. Some.This point feels very similar to a self-priming engine, and the overall power output feels very linear.

In terms of gearboxes, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class is equipped with a 9AT gearbox.Because there are too many gears, it is estimated that it is really difficult for you to drive to the 9th gear in normal use. Maybe Germany with high speed and no speed limit is where it comes in handy.

The overall smoothness of this gearbox is very good, there is almost no frustration of shifting, and when accelerating, the gearbox responds very quickly.

Its 276 823 engine is the same as the 19T, four-cylinder M70 or 2.0A on the 274 Infiniti Q274L. Because of design defects, it is easy to cause camshaft failure, which is indeed a common problem of Mercedes-Benz.Not only Mercedes-Benz E, but also Mercedes-Benz A, Mercedes-Benz C-Class or imported Mercedes-Benz will have similar problems.Once it occurs, it will make it difficult to start the vehicle, the engine noise will be loud after starting, and it will be accompanied by power drop, and the fault point will light up. When the time comes, you will come to repair it in time, and don't be careless. "

Fang Yuan told Sun Yanming that in addition to oil leaks, camshafts and flat tires, this 2017 Mercedes-Benz E is prone to broken axles and resulting in lying down.

It is the risk of breaking the shaft when driving on bumpy roads for a long time. This is caused by the simple configuration of the Mercedes-Benz E. The foreign Mercedes-Benz E is made of aluminum alloy, so there is no such situation.

In China, the simple configuration has become steel, and the aluminum is replaced with steel, which also increases the weight of the car body, which of course will lead to broken axles.

Secondly, the steering gear of Mercedes-Benz E also has quality problems.

Whenever low-speed steering or when the wheels touch the curb during parking, the body makes a huge abnormal sound, and the steering wheel vibrates violently, and when the steering wheel fails, it means that the steering system is faulty.

This is because of the quality problem of that batch of steering gear suppliers, which may cause cracks in the lock nut of the steering rack of the steering gear, which cannot meet the strength requirements, resulting in the lock nut may be broken due to a large lateral force, and finally stuck. Between the steering rack and the housing.

Finally, there were abnormal noises from the braking system, abnormal noises from the engine room, loud noises in the rear, peeling of the seats, open wires, cracked paint on the central control wood trim, and so on.

"Hey, in the German BBA, Mercedes-Benz needs power but not power, and controls without control. Moreover, because some of the current Mercedes-Benz technologies are too closed, the probability of defects is relatively high, and there are so many common problems." Sun Yanming slightly shook his head and sighed. He took a deep breath, "I don't know how to do it, I just like it."

"Of course." Fang Yuan said to Sun Yanming with a smile, "Mercedes-Benz has always had a high zero-to-total ratio, expensive maintenance, and expensive man-hours, but a Mercedes-Benz is a Mercedes-Benz. Only in terms of materials and workmanship is still very commendable.

The appearance looks high-end, and its interior design has always been the best-looking among the three, much better than BMW and Audi, and the overall temperament is also quite high-end, which is one of the reasons why many car owners choose Mercedes-Benz. "

"Don't be so pretentious." Song Guoyuan patted Sun Yanming's shoulder and said, "The car is not that fragile, so pay more attention when driving, and just come over if you have a small problem."

"Okay." Sun Yanming looked at Fang Yuan and Song Guoyuan gratefully, knowing them was the greatest happiness in his life.

Sun Yanming drove his Mercedes-Benz E back to the Jingcheng Auto Repair Factory one after the other with the Audi Crock.

After everyone knew that this Mercedes-Benz E belonged to Sun Yanming, Lao Li's well-informed masters greeted Sun Yanming politely.

Those young people from northern Jiangsu gathered together, looking back and forth, inside and out.

The Mercedes-Benz E has a length of just over five meters, luxurious configuration, and exquisite interior, which has aroused unanimous praise from Su Bei and others. They think that Sun Yanming is so awesome that he changed to such a good car.

Su Bei and the others were addicted to their eyes, and timidly came to Sun Yanming and asked how much the car cost.

"Guess." Sun Yanming was in a good mood, and joked with Su Bei and the others.

"It's estimated to be more than 40." Su Bei turned his head and looked straight at the car over there, and said enviously, "Boss Meng sent a 2017 E200L sports 4MATIC for maintenance the day before yesterday, and it cost 30 yuan from the customer. Ten thousand, this 320 top configuration is estimated to be more expensive."

"You're fine, you can sell second-hand cars." Sun Yanming smiled, "If the normal collection price is almost the same, but today Fang Yuan picked up a big mistake and saved more than [-] yuan."

"Saved more than [-] yuan?" Not to mention Su Bei and others were dumbfounded, even old masters like Lao Li were incredulous, and they all looked at Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan briefly explained what happened, Lao Li and the others all laughed, and gave Fang Yuan a thumbs up: "Niu, Manager Fang, you are so good and amazing."

"Okay, okay, Subei is going to drive down the Prado on the lift." Song Guoyuan also thought about checking the chassis of this Mercedes-Benz E, changing the tires, changing the oil and water, and doing fine cleaning. He will have to do it tomorrow morning Transfer, must hurry up.

When the Mercedes-Benz E was raised on the lift, Su Bei first asked Su Bei to remove the plastic guards on both sides of the bottom of the car and extended to the rear of the car. Song Guoyuan took the lamp and walked down first, and began to check.

Now most of the OEMs will affix a date stamp on each part, or put the date on the pouring time.

It is also easy to look at the screws. There will be a paint on the nut and the side when it leaves the factory. If the paint on the nut disappears, it is 100% disassembled.

Look at the rotation traces on the nut. Of course, this method is not very accurate. Someone wrapped the nut with something to cover up the fact.

Song Guoyuan knew that this Mercedes-Benz E was licensed in May 2017, and the nameplate showed that the whole vehicle left the factory in November 5.

Therefore, the date marked on the label of each component must be before November 2016, and it is impossible to exceed the time of November.

The maintenance records show that the accident occurred in July 2019.

When the light shines on the water tank, a clear set of numbers appears: 9-10-2016.
Song Guoyuan smiled, but in order to prevent fraud, he replaced the disassembled parts, and looked at the radiator fan integrated circuit in the center of the water tank. The label on it also showed the time: 8-10-2016.
The water tank is from the original factory, so there will not be any major accidents on the front. Even if the front bumper is replaced, the water tank is not damaged, but it is a small scratch, which does not matter.

Song Guoyuan was still not at ease, and randomly checked the steering gear, anti-roll bar, lower arm, drive shaft...

These parts are all marked in October 2016, and the nuts are complete without any signs of disassembly or twisting.

In the maintenance records, many of the parts seen showed that almost all of them had been replaced, which did not match the maintenance records.

After checking for a while, Song Guoyuan finally confirmed that the maintenance records were fake, and waved to Sun Yanming to come over.

When Sun Yanming bowed his head and came over, Song Guoyuan illuminated it with a lamp, and showed him all the labels: water tank, axle shaft, various tie rods... all the time marked was October 2016, but the exact number of days was slightly different, which is very normal.

"I can be 100% sure that the maintenance records are falsified, showing that none of the replacement parts have been replaced, and all of them are from the original factory." Song Guoyuan said that some people will use dismantled parts in order to cover up the traces of repairs. One is cheap, The other is that the time can be right.

However, the maintenance record shows that it cost more than 6 yuan to repair, and after replacing so many pieces, it is more difficult to find replacements for all of them in October 2016 than winning 10 million yuan in a lottery.

Sun Yanming's eyes followed the lights, Fang Yuan and Song Guoyuan checked each other, and he believed the car was fine at that time.

Now that he checked the chassis on the shelf again, and confirmed that the maintenance records were falsified and used to defraud the insurance, everything in front of him completely reassured him.

Sun Yanming pulled Song Guoyuan out quickly: "I drove the car to Jingcheng, and I felt that the chassis was tight, and the brakes and steering wheel didn't vibrate. Completely relieved."

Song Guoyuan greeted Su Bei: "You don't need to get off the car, just change the oil and water, change the tires, and finally do a fine cleaning."

"I'll call Sister Liu and ask her to come and get the formalities." Fang Yuan made a phone call, and within 5 minutes, Sister Liu came to Jingcheng Auto Repair Factory. She patted her chest with the formalities and said that Sun Yanming's car must be the first to go through the process. , Hurry up and send it to Jingcheng Auto Repair Factory.

After tossing around for such a long time, Fang Yuan checked the time and it was almost time to get off work, and greeted everyone: "We don't work overtime today, call our Masahiro people, let's go drink together, you choose the place, and I will pay for everything. "

Everyone is very happy when Fang Yuan treats guests to dinner. In fact, many people don't worry about food or drink, and they care about Fang Yuan's friendship.

"In addition, there is another good thing to announce today." Song Guoyuan said cheerfully.

"What good thing?" Everyone surrounded them curiously.

"In a few days, our branch factory will open."

The people in northern Jiangsu also know that now that Jingcheng has strong technical strength and too many customers to keep busy, the problem that constrains Jingcheng's development is scale and venue. Song Guoyuan has long thought about expanding the venue and opening a branch factory.

Today, the boss went out to get things done. This speed made them feel very fast.

To open a branch factory, you need to recruit people, and you may have to transfer people from a sincere point of view, who to let go, who to keep, not to mention people from northern Jiangsu who are interested, even a master like Lao Li is curious.

"The staff has not yet been decided, wait for me to think about it." In fact, Sun Yanming and the three had already discussed it in the car, because Hosono Konosuke had not responded to the letter, and they needed to hire a truck repairer, and Masahiro Group did not take care of it. The warehouse has been vacated, and now the only thing that is certain is that Sun Yanming will go to the branch factory. After all, the people of Konosuke Hosono are foreigners, and people with poor skills are the factory managers, so they can't be restrained.

The branch factory has grown from scratch, and it also needs an experienced person to worry about it.

There is also the promotion of Su Bei to be a sincere factory director. With Fang Yuan watching, there are so many old masters, nothing can go wrong.
