Oh Lord, A Few Tips to Help You in Mercedes-Benz Repairs
Giancarlo Perlas October 29, 2015
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes-Benz? One that’s less faulty, because mine’s broke again? I worked hard all my lifetime, and I got lifts from my friends. Oh Lord, won’t you help me fix my Mercedes-Benz?
Who doesn’t love a good Joplin singalong remake about Mercedes-Benz repairs? Presumably anyone who’s hopping mad at their broken Benz. After all, no one wants to shell out for a luxury car, only to have it burn out on some long-forgotten highway.
However, even if you’ve purchased a ropey looking secondhand Mercedes, a few minor repairs can turn it from dodgy motor to revving luxury.
With that in mind, we’ve come up with a few repair tips that will save your car from the doldrums of a breakdown.
Stick It Together
A lot of people use adhesive for their car repairs, only to find their brand as reliable as an alcoholic behind a bar. Whether it’s to hold your furnishings together or improve the bond on your exhaust, you need a high-quality adhesive for the job.
This company stocks marine glue and joinery adhesives as well as products made specifically for automobiles, so you know they can be trusted. Industrial-strength glues should be in every personal garage.
The cream of the crop in terms of adhesives will come in a spray gun format, allowing you to dollop it on without needless waste. So stock up for a great bond in your Benz.
Belt Maintenance
The engine in your car is like the human heart—endlessly intricate and vital for the function of every other element. And much like a ventricle, a poorly functioning tyre belt is the sign of an engine on the way out.
Belts are generally made of rubber, and can easily perish under conditions like those in an operating engine bay. Check their condition every few months, and get a professional to repair them every 25,000 miles or so.
A Top-Notch Finish
A Benz from a trusted provider will always have a good paint job, but you’ll need the right kind of paint if you want to add a few improvements of your own.
For a car as luxurious as a Benz, you’ll want to contact a pro in your local area who can do the job for you. But there are also numerous ways to keep your current paint job looking dazzling.
Turtle Wax Ice can get rid of any white wax residue, and will also make removing gunk from your car that little bit easier.
Our main tip for a cracking paint job though is to stay vigilant. Leaving bird droppings to fester on your bonnet, for instance, will speed up its eventual corrosion.
