I wonder how we all survived for all those years before cars had cabin air filters? ::)
My truck does not have a filter

Ram Eco diesel air filter. So clogged, it is pulled in the air box. Second picture shows at least a pound in dust that came out of the filter and there was still more in it.

That filter reminds me of a friend of mine with a 5.9 cummins.  An air sensor was defective and made the truck suck air like crazy. Same the filter was sucked in.  The filter wasn't even that old but we were working on the rig so gravel roads all the time. The engine had some damaged piston because of that. Sucked to much dirt.

This really doesn't belong in the "moan 'n whine" section, but it is stuff I see.  I did an out of province inspection on this 2016 M-B S63 AMG. OMG WOW, what a ride. The coolest thing I think was how the seat bolsters would pull in as you took a corner. Windshield was $2500 our cost. Good thing for the customer that the crack did pass inspection.

^^ Nice. Why would someone bring in a 2016 M-B S63 AMG into a Chrysler dealership for an inspection?

Also those wheels need a good cleaning.

In that environment the oil bath filter is king!

Those are dynamic seats. They are also found on any E-class equipped with a V8 engine iirc. Now let me wipe off the drool off my mouth after looking at that, excuse me... ;D

Actually, I had recently had a 2016 E250 Bluetec as a service loaner that had the dynamic seats. Weird feeling first time I took a corner and they came on!

Customer was told he need an axle seal. Screw you stealership, I have a buddy that can do it. Well where is your buddy now? Dude didn't pre-lube the hub bearings. That Cummins turbo diesel will just keep twisting until something breaks.  :rofl:
