Gs are not made to go off road!
So a funny exchange happened the other day between my wife and the mercedes mechanic who came to drop off our G after a service.
mechanic: What have you being doing to your car? There was so much mud in the engine compartment we needed to steam clean it.
my wife: Why using it off-road of course.
mechanic: What?!?! No!
my wife: Why? Its a 4x4 and thats what its made for...
mechanic: No! Not for off-road use! For driving around the city.... it should never be driven off-road!
I guess the 4 wheel drive is only meant for getting over curbs then... :lol:

Such is the knowledge of the average mechanic of the G....
:cry:
Depressing thought.
Where is this nurd J, I,ll take mine in for a service just for the laugh.
Thats what they said to me when i towed my Sprinter in with a hydrauliced engine, lol..
Sadly he's correct 99% of the time......................including G's. Anyway off to look up how to spell irony in the dictionary.
What age was he? 16? :shock: And an imature 16 at that :lol:
Obviously a main dealer mechanic
