Mercedes Thermostat – Key to Smooth Performance

With their founder being the first person to officially release a “true” automobile, Mercedes Benz has always been about coming up with many firsts in their line of work. Founded by Karl Benz in 1871, the Mercedes Benz company has made a name mainly for their limousines and sports cars. Mercedes Benz also made some notable contributions in automotive technology, this would include, but not limited to fuel injection, anti-lock brakes, stability control, and brake assists, most of which are now incorporated by their competitors' own designs. Since being one of the oldest car automakers still operational today, it can be argued that Mercedes Benz has a better understanding of what makes a car tick. Internal combustion engines have been the industry standard for more than a century, and is projected to retain that status for a few more years. While most of the innovations that Mercedes has pioneered steers (no pun intended) more to the safety side, the German automaker has kept the quality up on the engine side, as evident in the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren (fastest automatic road car), BRABUS W211 (fastest street-legal saloon), or the Mercedes-AMG 6208cc M156 (most powerful naturally aspirated V8 engine). Producing engines that perform on those levels requires an effective cooling system, as the heat coming produced by the engine can be quite damaging to numerous parts including the engine itself. Earlier automobiles were produced with air-cooled engines, but nowadays, most engines use fluid-cooled systems which normally uses a mixture of water or antifreeze. Equipped with a radiator fastened behind the car's grill to hold the coolant, the process generally means circulating the fluid to absorb the heat and disperse it through to the air that passes through the grill as the car moves forward. Of course a cooling system does lower the temperature generated of the engine, but in reality a certain heat is still needed for the engine to work on optimal levels, hence there is as a need to control the flow of the coolant. Mercedes Benz and other car makers have always relied on the use of thermostats to get the job done. A Mercedes Benz thermostat is standard to all models and product lines, which is normally a wax pellet sealed inside a chamber. An expansion provision is located in the same chamber which operates a rod that opens the valve which regulates the flow of the coolant. As the engine hits operating temperature, the wax melts and expands to the provision, thus toggling the rod and opening the valves to let the coolant flow freely into the engine. The composition of the wax is matched to the operating temperature of the particular engine, since engines have different operational levels. Worn out thermostats could prove problematic, causing overheating in worst case scenarios. Most modern engines are also susceptible to increase emissions since they need to run in particularly high temperatures to decrease the amount of pollutants. A replacement for Mercedes thermostats are easy enough to find, either with a local dealership or through the Internet.

Pioneer has a radio, and so does Sony that are capable of utilizing the factory controls. But you have to buy an adapter. Here's a link to the Pioneer radio, the adapter is on the menu bar at the right. It's actually a nice radio. And you may find a couple of others there as well.

In-Car GPS Units - Navigate Easily to Your Destination

What is GPS?

The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses satellites to transmit signals to a GPS unit on earth to accurately identify a person's direction, speed location and time. It was developed twenty years ago by the US military because of the security needs of the time. Today, it can be used by anyone provided they posses a GPS enabled device or unit.

GPS devices can be practically used in almost any situation that you can think of, whether it is commercial, military or recreational. In the scientific arena, it has been widely used for global navigations, scientific and aeronautical researches, and even for handling the probabilities of catastrophes like earthquakes and tornadoes. For the everyday lay person, probably the best know use of GPS is as an in car navigational device.

Why Use an In-Car GPS Unit?

A GPS car unit is a device that you use to navigate while you are in your car. They can be fixed to the car or portable. With a GPS unit in your car easily tracked by the satellites, the device will safely and accurately direct you to all the places you want to go to and tell you what is the best route to get there.

You may be surprised to discover how easy they are to use. The gadget will always provide the user with user friendly options, right through to the successful completion of your journey. For travelers navigating across the globe, one could follow their journey right from the dashboard of the car. The weather and climatic conditions are closely monitored from your driver's seat, and you get the updates on events around you.

Brands of In-Car GPS Units

These devices come in different varieties and at different costs. Spending on an in-car GPS unit is proportional to the devices features and quality.

The Garmin Nuvi 660 comes with a wide and clear screen along with hands free communications from your phone for your convenience. The HP iPaq rx5900 Travel Companion is relatively affordable. It is smaller but has all that you need. Listen to music and indulge in games to break the boredom.

Then there is the Magellan Maestro 4250, one of the most popular GPS devices. With this GPS, you receive real and updated traffic as you cruise along the highway. Enjoy the Bluetooth feature and sit back as you safely navigate home. The Pioneer AVIC-Z2 is a sizable unit with wider memory capacity, thus it can refine the details of the maps even better.

When buying a GPS unit, you should choose one that is at the upper end of your budget so that you can get the best of what GPS devices offer. There are several other competitors which are just as good as those units outlined above, with marvelous performance. Some of them will be a little cheaper with comparable features and GPS units in general are coming down in price everyday. Make sure you test drive any GPS unit before you buy.

Today, most new cars already have the GPS unit installed when you buy them. This makes it more convenient and you have the warranty advantage for any breakages or fault. However, you don't get to choose what unit comes with the car which can be a disadvantage when the unit isn't that user friendly.

While GPS car units offer many advantages, some caution is necessary when you are looking to purchase a GPS unit for your car. You want something that is very user friendly and is of high quality. The lesson is: try before you buy.

Where can I find the cheapest Pioneer AVIC-D3 navigation system?

I want to buy a Pioneer AVIC-D3 but the lowest price I can find online is $699 from TrustedDealers.com and I don't want to buy it from eBay. Where else can I buy it for cheaper? Are there any other cheaper sites?

Personally, I wouldn't recommend buying something that expensive online. You never know if you are getting a refurb or not. Also, it is difficult to get something warrantied online.

A trusted local car audio shop with a good reputation is your best bet. Ebay may be scary, but by using ebay and paypal, you have alot more protection than just an ordinary website. Paypal is pretty ruthless when it comes to fraud, plus, you can kinda judge the seller by their feedback.

Can somebody give me advice on making my audio sound cleaner on my Altima 2.5?

It is a year 2006 and it is a Special Edition:) Since I wanted to connect my Ipod Touch to my stereo, and the aux thing that I purchased at a audio accessory store was not compatible with my stereo, well that's what they told me it was a Scoche brand or something like that. So I bought a 3000 Pioneer stereo, so now I can connect and listen to my iPod. My car's bass already bumps, but I don't wanna blow my speakers, and it doesnt sound as clear anymore. I want to make it sound more clear and of course make the bass sound a little neater. Any tips. We'll I am on a budget like around 500 I don't want to put in too much money into my car right now.

A new head unit and factory speaker does not match at all. If you want clean sound replace your factory speaker with a JBL speakers. MTX or other name brand (Boston, JL, Infinity etc.). JBL has been my favorate since late 70's. Check the size on door speaker (5.25 or 6.5) rear either the same size or they are 6X9. The GT series speaker are JBL's less expensive series. Good luck.

Many Aspects of Modern Travel Was Pioneered By the Roman Empire

by: Geoff Ficke

Modern travelers take the open road for granted. We can hop into exquisitely engineered modern vehicles, pop onto smooth, straight freeways, well lit, with excellent signage and many roadside conveniences. We can cover as much ground as we might like in any direction, in relative comfort and safety. 

Much that we love about modern road travel was actually available 2500 years ago to the ancient Romans. They created the template for a system of interconnected roads and conveniences that we have simply adapted during the 20th century as the automobile became the mass method of conveyance.

The road system that they built to connect their far-flung empire is still in use in many places. 

As the Roman Empire flourished, conquered and consolidated new lands and needed to efficiently administer these territories the necessity for a durable network of roads became obvious to the ruling class. Prior to Roman ascendancy roads around the world were simple unpaved paths cut into the landscape by pack animals, carts and people moving goods to trade, barter and local markets. 

The Romans prospered by trading in the lands they conquered, but they also needed to move great armies, control supply lines and have the ability to quickly transport edicts, orders and news to the far corners of the empire in a timely manner. To build this essential intra-state network of highways the Romans utilized the manpower always available in their army legions.

The quality and durability of Roman roads still amazes. Depending on topography Roman roads were famously straight for as far as the eye could see. This engineering feat was accomplished without any of the modern surveying equipment used by road builders today. The Romans invented a simple device called the gromma and this became the principal tool utilized for accurately surveying roads and thoroughfares. 

The gromma ingeniously uses two strings with a weight tide to the end of each. The strings are attached to the ends of a length of wood. The surveyor would simply line up the strings until they appeared as one, and would have assistants plant stakes approximately every 100 yards apart . The surveyor, using the gromma as a guide, would have the assistants slightly adjust stake placement until the strings of the gromma and the line of stakes appeared as one. The result was a roadbed that was true, precise and easily utilized by the construction crews. 

The Romans laid rock above the roadbed so the surface was higher than the land next to the road. This enabled water to drain off to the side and meant that roads did not wash out in inclement weather. Gravel was placed on both sides of the roadway to act as a sort of gutter to carry away runoff. 

This system, when viewed on a modern map, appears much as the present day system of interstate highways is constructed. Spain, Gaul (modern France), Italy, Germany, the British Isles, Greece and Northern Africa all were tied closely together by this amazing transport network. Modern roadways parallel this grid in most countries where the Romans built their highways. 

The Romans built over 2000 bridges. Many are in use, carrying traffic to this day. The arches they crafted were amazingly strong, with strategically placed keystones supporting the massive weight and pressure of these utilitarian edifices. In addition, these bridges are some of the most beautiful structures ever built. The Roman word for bridge was “pontificat”. Today we apply the descriptive name “Pontiff” to the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church, as the Pope acts as the bridge between heaven and earth. 

Hundreds of tunnels had to be built through the rugged topography of central Europe in order to move traffic to the most expeditious routes. The Romans had no power tools to gouge through rock. They had no dynamite. The technology to construct these tunnels was primitive, but most effective. Engineers would build massive bonfires right against the rock face of the surveyed tunnel. Then they would boil vinegar and have this splashed against the burnt rock face. While the effect of the heat and vinegar was greatest sappers would begin to chip at the weakened surface with chisels and hammers. Some of the tunnels took 20 years to complete. 

As the road system grew, the need for roadside services became acute. Travel was typically undertaken in approximately 20-mile daily chunks. As a result every 20 miles or so, along the breadth of the massive Roman network of roads, there were roadside inns, workshops to repair transit vehicles, and stables to care for livestock. Maps were prevalent and indicated not only place names, but distances, accommodations, levels of luxury, services, and military garrisons. 

As distance was crucial in planning itineraries the Romans perfected the odometer 2000 years ago. They utilized a 42-inch diameter wheel and a series of gears that engaged each time the wheel made a full turn. The interlocking gear system was calibrated so each gear turned as it was activated until a Roman mile (approximately 5000 modern feet) was covered. Then a gravel pellet would fall into a container as holes in the gears came into alignment. This amazingly accurate measuring system enabled the Romans to mark their maps, and place stones alongside the roadsides marked with precise distances covered and to the next town or service stop. 

Today, travel has become a hugely popular experience enjoyed by millions of people around the world. Whether a brief weekend road trip, a cruise or an international vacation, people love to go. So did the Romans. The Romans were the richest people in the history of the world to that time. The system of roads they built were heavily utilized for recreational travel, the first time in history that people had the wherewithal to move freely about for strictly leisure purposes. 

Travel guidebooks were omnipresent in ancient Rome. The travel guidebook for the many attractions of Greece, for example, was 20 full papyrus pages long. Inns and eating establishments were rated for economy, luxury, cleanliness and safety. The modern Michelin and Fodor guidebooks are simply successors of the Roman travel guides. 

At most major crossroads on Roman roads there was a sign offering directions, distances and recommended stops for repairs, refreshments or relaxation. Many also included a news board with recent proclamations, travel warnings and local notices. These were the world’s first billboards. 

As travel grew in popularity so did the menu of services available to the traveler. Chariots, sedan chairs, carts, wagons and covered wagons with swivel seats and dice tables (for the rich) were available for rent. Accommodations varied widely in cost and quality. Hostels, servants quarters, private sleeping rooms, luxury quarters with fire, bathing and mattresses were on offer depending on one’s pocketbook. Food was offered in similar variety. 

The world’s first fast food was also available from some purveyors. The cart simply pulled to a door or opening, the menu card was reviewed and the order placed and delivered to the vehicle to be consumed as the journey continued. 

The Roman Empire began to consume itself around the 5th century. The pursuit of luxury, greed and laziness made the Empire corpulent, vainglorious and decadent. The same roads that had been so crucial in their military, recreational and commercial enterprises came to haunt the Romans. Their many enemies utilized this road network to attack their former masters. The Visigoths, the Franks and the Mongols used the Roman roads to carve back lands formerly taken from them and to attack Rome mercilessly. By the end of the 6th Century Roman hegemony was long a thing of the past. 

The demise of the Roman Empire meant that the maintenance and continued construction of the roads came to a halt. This had the unintended consequence of leaving huge swaths of the system in areas where there was no effective government. Trade came to a halt. The roads were deserted. In many areas, especially North Africa, Britain, Spain and France the Roman highways disappeared beneath weeds and fauna. 

The result was the commencement of the Dark Ages. People stopped travelling for almost any reason. Until the Crusades there was almost no interaction between peoples and cultures. The insularity of tribes and fiefdoms lead to a reawakening of ignorance, disease, superstition and hate.

For six centuries the Romans ruled the known world. Their ability to create, invent and improvise has served mankind ever since. The vast Roman network of interlocking roads, tunnels, bridges, mapmaking, services, commercial enterprises and exploration is the guide we utilize to this day in communication, logistics and locomotion. We have much to thank these brilliant Romans for as we utilize so many of their inventions to this very day.

How to install new radio in a Renault Clio?

I want to change the factory fitted radio on my Renault Clio 2001 with a Pioneer DEH-2000MPB radio. Would this fit and could someone give some help on how to fit it as I do not want to purchase the radio and then find I can't fit it? The radio also works with the steering wheel controls as well so how would I get them to work with it also? Do I need any other wires etc? Thanks

2001 clios came with standard ISO wiring (basically standard wiring) which will plug straight into the back of your pioneer, or using the wiring loom provided with that radio. You need a set of standard DIN size removal tools which will slot into the 2 holes on either side of the radio. These then need to be pulled outwards slightly towards the car doors, the radio will then slide out. There will be a small metal 'sleeve' inside the gap which also needs to be removed. You'll then see the wiring. For your car it gets complicated with steering wheel controls, if it has a display ontop of the dash which tells you things like time, date etc. There are 2 leads you can use. The first one, the whole dashboard has to be unscrewed, to allow the plug in the back of the display to be disconnected and rejoined. Expect to pay about £35 for that one. The other one means less faffing about for you if you're going to fit it, however is slightly more expensive, probably about £40. If you go into your local halfords store they'll be able to order that one for you, tell them you want the connects 2 leads. Hope this helps, email me if you need to x

should i replace the speakers in a shaker 500 audio system with pioneer 4 way speakers?

I just got two 4 way pioneer speakers for christmas...i was about to put them in my car now....but i got a chance to purchase a mustang...should i replace the stock speakers with the pioneers or are the speakers that come with the system better?

The pioneer's are probably better but you should make sure the ohm ratings are the same. Take out one of the mustang's speakers and on the magnet it should tell you what the ohm rating it somewhere on there.

Top Accessories for the PS3

Playstation 3 is the third installment in the series of Playstation video game consoles. Playstation 3 which is also known as PS3 is one of the most popular video game console of seventh generation era of video game consoles. Currently 35.7 million unit of PS3 are sold. 
Sony and other companies also produced different accessories for Playstation 3.

Playstation 3 accessories include input accessories like cables for high quality picture and sound, video cameras, microphones and wireless controllers. Here I will tell you about those Playstation 3 accessories that I like very much. Some of my favorite accessories are as follow.

One of the Playstation 3 wireless controllers that I like is the Sixaxis Dualshock 3. There is not much difference between previous version of Sixaxis and Sixaxis Dualshock 3. The only difference that I noticed is that on the rear side of the Daulshock 3 there is printed Daulshock 3 with the Sixaxis label. The plastic used in this controller is opaque unlike the previous version in which the plastic used is slightly translucent. This controller is released in three colors piano black, satin silver and ceramic white.

I'm a fan of PS3 racing games and the device I like to play racing games is known as Driving force GT. Logitech International produced this accessory for Playstation 3. It is a PS3 racing wheel device used for playing racing games. This racing wheel can steer 900° with a steering wheel, brake and throttle pedals. Its features also include force feedback through the steering wheel.

Genericaster is another controller that comes with Guitar Hero: World tour. This guitar controller has a new shape. It also has a quieter and longer strum bar. The start and select buttons are repositioned and its whammy bar is also longer. It also has a solo section which is touch sensitive and is located near the neck of controller.

Another nice Playstation accessory is the Playstation eye which is designed for PS3. It is updated version of the previous Eye Toy webcam. It is not compatible with Playstation 2. It is plugged to the Playstation 3 console through a USB cable. The camera used in Playstation eye can record at a frame rate of 60 or 120 hertz and at resolution of 640x480 or 320x240.

Playstation 3 game developers can also add compatibility for extra devices. Most of the Bluetooth and USB mice and keyword are compatible with Playstation 3 and they can also be used for navigation of XMB or for the web browser of the console. Mouse or keyword can work only in those games which are particularly programmed to use mouse or keyboard.
You can find many other nice accessories for your PS3 in markets and you can get details about them by searching different websites on the internet.

Hi, My 2 door & 2 rear speakers just shut off and all I have are the subs/amp/deck working!?

Ok, I have replaced the deck (to see if the deck was the problem, same problem), it had the same problem after that, I changed the speakers to new ones (still the same problem). I disconnected the Amp/Subs (still same problem), I checked the fuses near the steering wheel (still same problem). None are burnt. All the speakers worked for 2 years now and just randomly they just shut off. I even checked the speakers and it pops (which means it still works). I tried those speakers in another car and it worked. P.S. I have a 97 Nissan Altima, 2 Sony explodes 6" and 2 6X9" connected to deck, 2 Sony explodes subs 1,100w, and Sony explode amp 1,000w. 1 500f capacitor. Dual deck 220w (which the speakers are connected to). Please help me, thanks in advance.

well you did almost all the trouble shooting, lets see..

1) you replaced the reciever/deck and that didnt change anything.
2) you swapped speakers with no change.
3) all fuse's are good, but if they blew it would stay off right !
so what 3 things you have left are;

1) speaker wire connections jiggeling or loose,
2) one of the speaker wires intermittantly hitting the frame/grounding.
which would cut the speakers out.
3) did you say amp? is your amplifier going out.
4) is it when your playing radio and station gets weak and speakers
cur out, verify if it cuts out on mp3, cd or any other source.

should be pretty easy, your almost there !
