My Father worked at the Isle Of Grain BP refinery in Kent for years and was in charge of blending oil in the huge farm tanks. The galling thing is that Petrol and Diesel are bi- products of making other products from oil.....they are not produced separately they have to be produced in the cycle...

I support what you say word for word.......... I have used Norton for over 20yrs but did come to an end last year when they took my renewal fee of £69 ? one month before expiry date and did not warn me by email...they said they did but they didn`t. I did get my renewal amount refunded after a...

When i had my C320cdi Sport estate i always used Two Stroke in a ratio with the diesel and hardly any smoke at all even under harsh acceleration. Two Stroke ups the cetane number and has a more cleaner superior burn. Motor was remapped and the bhp was used most of the time. Used until i sold...

This is exactly as i was trying to say in my post 22........even Goodyear tyres can develop problems and mine was an unequal wear across the tyre causing a raised part which made the tyre not concentric and thus caused a vibration ....only on one front tyre. Two new tyres solved the issue after...

Had this problem with my C320cdi Had all the front end replaced as well as new Mercedes discs and vibration still there? It wasn`t until i was able to watch the garage balance the front tyres again that i found the problem The tyres were Goodyear F1 and only done around 12000......when on the...

Try decent Shell fuel instead of cheap dirty other brands?.........you should notice a great difference? Had the same on visiting the French Pyrenees on the motorways back of the car was black from crappy diesel........back home no problem with decent fuel.

This noise also happens when the front wheel bearing on the noisy side needs adjusting as it causes the disc to slightly rub the pads?

In all fairness that is not really the way to see if a chain has worn as the adjuster takes up any slack but it can still be very worn with the correct adjustment?

What we used to do in the Sixties to prove a chain was worn is to hold it horizontal we never bothered about noise then.........a new chain would be almost straight but a worn one would curve away to the ground a fair bit maybe even 3" (75mm) Of course then materials were much better than the...

I am sure all these Recalls are simply just for the Dealers to make more money?? My 2nd car is a Zafira Tourer the previous Zafira had a recall for the dash fires that were being a problem........booked it in at the Vauxhall Dealer to have the supposedly faulty part replaced an after they had...

On my 2006 C320cdi the washers for the front windscreen were heated and if i got in and after starting turned the washers on straight away they would not work for at least 5 or 10 secs until they were warmed up. If yours are heated ones maybe a fuse has gone for them?

Nothing to do with Mercedes as i have sold mine.......but my 2nd car was a Zafira and although mine was the later model which was not affected it had the recall for the fire hazard. It was booked in then they cancelled it until they were slack on work and then when i got it back they had done...

Haven`t seen any reply to this post but it is the Glowplug Relay.....the new type looks different to the old? The swirl motor is under the plastic "V" for the turbo intake

Just been checking the Crit`Air sticker is for ALL engine types including petrol and electric and is numbered on the reading from your Reg. document.

I go to France fairly regular on trips all over the place and have a Crit`Air sticker.....which you only need for the large cities to allow you to drive in. There is no charge for driving in the city you are visiting the sticker on the windscreen is just there to let the Police know what the...
