I have a Mercedes e320 2004 and my key won't turn so I can't move it, is there anything I can do to fix it on my own
@SuperCparham4 ай бұрын
And also if the key won't turn could that be the battery or the ignition itself

None of this is necessary. Insert key into trunk lock. Turn counterclockwise and push in

This primary reason for this is when your trunk lock does NOT work...

Any update on how long they lasted? I once had mine rebuildt and they only lasted about 600km. Stuck in a small town I rebuildt them with Audi 500 CV's that fitted. They only lasted 100km 😢 For some reason the grease kept on spinning out. Eventually I resorted to buying a complete shaft from Mercedes.

What has been the symptoms while driving? Constant rolling noise increasing with speed. Any vibration , cabin or steering wheel? I have a rolling vibration on my 2017 G63 and can not locate where is it coming from.
@Gelandelocks Жыл бұрын
Nothing in the steering wheel, this is primarily a vibration coming from under the seats around 30-40mph (where you can feel it best). The faster the truck is moving, the less you'll feel the vibration. The best bet is to get the truck up in the air where the wheels are free and push up and down on the cv shaft just before the shaft meets the joint, if the shaft is bad USUALLY there will be play. It should have NO play. Sometimes these can get bad enough that they will start clicking - replace ASAP as it can potentially damage the transfer case.
@marcusduffner9953 Жыл бұрын
@@Gelandelocks Thank you for prompt reply. Checked all wheels with the car lifted up. No play at all, no unusual noise. Can’t check the CV joints they are inside the front axle. This makes it prob more difficult to hear. The ball hub is quite massive piece of metal. Guess the only way is to dismantle a check it.

Hi, yesterday I was replacing the brakes on my 2003 mercedes e500 so I disconnected the battery and put the key inside the trunk so the day ended before I finished the job I started to gather my tools and put them in the trunk before it turn dark in order to finish the job tomorrow Eventually I closed the trunk while the key inside, what will you do in this situation ?

So if you look close? The trunk has a release latch right above the tag. Directly in the middle, you have to turn the key clockwise, and pull the latch. Its hard to see cuz it blends in...gl folks

@friedrichernst62582 жыл бұрын
You should be able to get into the car with the metal key. once inside, and start the car. Once car is started, the 'open trunk' button in door should open the trunk. If the starter battery is dead, open hood, charge the battery for a couple of hours (overnight is better). Once you get the car started, the 'open the trunk' button will open the trunk so that you can then charge the battery in the trunk. Once the car is running, the charger sends enough electricity to the aux battery to enable trunk to open. This is practically what putting charger cable on alternator does. I have never seen a case where the silver key doesn't open the door, because the silver key opens the door lock mechanically, no electricity required.

The metal key does work in the tumbler. Your car it may not work but in most all Mercedes, it is designed to use that key in just the case you have. Chances are the ignition was changed in your vehicle not allowing the new key to work.

@Gelandelocks3 жыл бұрын
hey Brian, you shouldn't have any problem doing them and you don't have to move anything out of the way to do them. just do one time at a side as it's easier to line up bolt holes. the mounts also have a tiny locating pin at the top where they go into the motor mount bracket, make sure you get that slotted in before tightening the bolt. good luck!
