Hi All, my 2013 W204 C220 is showing a message saying 'Front Right Malfunction Consult Workshop'. This has only just started after I took the car to a company to have the drivers seat cushion stitching redone. I can only assume they either took the seat out or at the least undid the bolts to...

Hi All, the stitching is coming undone on the drivers seat of my 2013 C220 W204. It has the grey artico (I think its called) interior. Can this stitching be repaired or does it need a new seat and if so where can I can one at a sensible price. I have looked on eBay but didn't see one and not...

Hi All, my 2013 C220 W204 has an Audio 20 fitted but I don't know if it requires a code if the battery is disconnected. I have looked in the Audio 20 manual that came with the car but there is no mention of a code. Could anyone tell me if it requires a code if the battery is disconnected please...

Hi Guys, my neighbour has just bought a 2003 C200K and is looking for a set of W203 car mats. If anyone has a set of genuine W203 mats please let me know. Many thanks Paul

Hi All, my 2013 C220 has just started displaying this message along with the ESP and ABS symbols. I switch the car off and it clears but then comes back on a few days later. Owners manual says to visit a qualified specialist workshop. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to sort...

Hi All, I am on the lookout for a reasonably priced Becker Map Pilot that works with my 2013 C220 Cdi. Many thanks Paul

Hi All, I recently replaced by C180K with a 63 plate C220 (registered Nov 2013). The car has the connections for the Becker Map Pilot in the glove box and I was considering getting one but looking on both eBay and Amazon I am uncertain of the correct part no for my car. Could anyone please...

Hi All, I bought a new Merc over the weekend but it turns out that although the drivers mat is for a Mercedes it doesn't actually fit my model. All the other mats are fine just the drivers mat so if anyone has one for sale for a 2013 C class w204 automatic please let me know. TIA Paul

Hi All, my local garage just rang me to say that they have found the reason for a strange noise I had and it is that I have a cracked rear subframe. It sounds expensive and thats if he can source a new one. The car is a 57 plate C180K with 87K on the clock, is it worth repairing or scrapping. Paul

Hi All, I have noticed an odd spring like sound when I put my foot on the brake and then again when I take my foot off. It sounded like it was coming from the back so I had both rear wheels off but could not see anything obvious. I thought it might have been a spring but they were both fine. A...

Hi All, I currently drive a C Class 180K but I am thinking about trading her in for a newer model. I have seen a 2013 C Class 2.1 C220 SE 7G Tronic which I really like but I hardly do any mileage as I work from home and I am wondering if I might cause issues for myself when it comes to DPF's...

Hi All, just recently my drivers door window has developed some odd behaviour. On occasion when I shut the window it bounces back open again about .5 cm so I pull on the switch and it shuts and as soon as I let go, it bounce open yet again. It doesn't do it all the time but it must have done so...

Hi All, my C Class passed its MOT yesterday but has a Minor Defect for 'Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover severely deteriorated Offside Front'. Where would be a good place to buy these as I see that GSF sell Lemforder drop links and I believe these are a good make. Also, should I...

Hi Guys, the wheels on my w204 C180K are in need of some TLC but I have no idea what colour they have been painted/sprayed. They are 16" alloys for a 205/55/R16 tyre and I think I can see a number which is A204 401 0602 but not sure if that is the part no or not. Does anyone know what colour...

Hi All, I have just had new tyres fitted and I had a look at the pads while the wheels were off and although the O/S/R pads are acceptable, the N/S/R are not. I had a look on the internet and I was really not sure of the correct ones to buy. GSF and Euro Car Parts have been suggested but there...

Hi All, I drove to supermarket this morning and when I switched the engine off the fan was running which I thought was strange. When I left to come home I noticed I had no water temperature gauge and the engine was revving high and then I saw the Engine Management light was on. I drove straight...

Hi Guys, I have just had front and rear parking sensors fitted and when the guy unplugged the nearside rear taillight connector, the earth had melted. I have just googled this and found it is a well known problem. They have managed to bypass the plug with the earth and reverse wires but I want...

Hi All, the wipers on my W204 seem to be displaying odd behaviour. Driving back from Southampton General yesterday in the rain the wiper were set on first setting and were working as expected and then suddenly they went crazy and were sweeping back and forth as fast as they could. Even went it...

Hi All, I need to adjust the direction of the jet of water on the centre nozzle of my 2007 C180K. I looked on YouTube but they don't show my type, mine have vertical slots and I cant see how you can alter the direction. Can anyone point me in the right direction so I can do the same to my screen...

Hi Guys, last weekend my dial lit up red telling me I had a flat or that I was low on air. When I tried to move off the car wouldn't move and then the engine stopped and would not start. Is this part and parcel of the warning. Anyway I got it going and stopped at the BP station just outside...
