As a long-time Mercedes-Benz owner who has driven several generations of the E-Class and S-Class, I can easily distinguish them just by their exterior. The E-Class typically has a more compact body, with sharper-looking headlights in the front design, unlike the S-Class's massive grille that exudes luxury. Looking at the side profile, the S-Class is noticeably longer, offering rear legroom so spacious you can cross your legs, while the E-Class has more ordinary rear seating. The driving experience differs even more—the S-Class boasts top-notch noise insulation, glides over bumps, and has light steering, whereas the E-Class delivers more direct feedback with a sportier feel. Price-wise, the S-Class is significantly more expensive, targeting business elites, while the E-Class suits families or daily commuting. Maintenance-wise, the S-Class tends to have more minor issues, but driving it gives off that flagship vibe.

How can a car be modified?

The wheels of a car can be modified, but the size of the wheels must not be changed arbitrarily and must adhere to the original car dimensions. In interior modifications, the audio system and steering wheel can be customized according to the owner's personal preferences, but the internal spatial structure of the car cannot be altered at will. After changing the car's body color, it is essential to promptly update the information with the vehicle management office and replace the personal driving documents in a timely manner.

How to Fix Loose Car Air Conditioning Vents?

Repair or replace them promptly. When the fan blade fixing screws are loose and the air deflector swings to the topmost position, the vent area becomes minimal, causing airflow obstruction and resulting in wind noise. Seek professional inspection and replacement of the chip controller. The higher the air conditioning fan speed, the greater the noise level will gradually become. Avoid prolonged use of high-speed mode and adjust the air conditioning mode according to the environment.
