Diff oils were from Fuchs iirc, but in any case as per this list...

Trans was genuine MB, likewise filter and likewise regular servicing bits. :y

Being a 2010 MY pre face-lift, mine has the AMG bumpers and skirts which improves the look somewhat 8)

Thank you :). Talking to my indie, apparently Chrysler decided to fit a number of inferior components to mine Vs what Merc for to theirs (glow plugs being one such example), so I'm looking to replace parts with merc ones as time goes by.

Charged it, as its suffering lack of use.  Although it did do about a mile to Argos on Saturday, as I CBA to walk ;D

VXL V6

Had a few bits done recently. Got SOS to replace the condenser, re-gas, fit rear discs and pads and do the 3rd sump drop and refill (recomended method for this box) on the V70.

Fitted replacement side view camera and configured using ISTA and had a used headlight refurbished with all new seals and lense to replace the porous one (a very common  issue with F10/F11's with adaptive headlights due to Hella"s piss poor factory sealant) thankfully the TMS module had survived unscathed.

Drove it to Wantage in Oxfordshire to see a property my wife has purchased, lovely pub just round the corner what's not to like..👍
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level & beat you with their experience.

Provisionally lined up a replacement for the Alabama Mumsybus.

Yes it's correctly fuelled and driven. And whilst not exactly the full two fingers to Ulez bollix, it's a fairly stiff middle finger >:D
