    Battery charging

    Under the bonnet there is a plastic slide cover that appears to reveal an alternative contact point to the positive side of the battery connector. I don't know what the purpose of this terminal is o_O. If I want to charge my battery with a Ctek or similar, should I connect the positive lead to...

    Cheapeast Location to Buy Car ?

    Hi George, Post code may show lowest prices, but the car needs to be checked out, like anywhere else they are on sale. Sounds like you are buying 'off the book', I think I would pay a little bit more and buy a mercedes approved car, it would be great if you could get a warranty transferred to...

    What Have You Done To Your Merc Today?

    If you had got up before midday you might have had the primer on . Seriously, I am impressed, excellent, don't know what garage kit you have but I wish I could do that in a shift.

    Mud Flaps / Splash Guards

    Would worry me too, tempted to fit mud guards myself but would smear a huge amount of 'axle' grease between the guards and the body work. I would also remind myself to replace the 'axle' grease every year, but most likely I would keep putting it off until the guards fell off with part of the...

    Newby priveledges?

    Hi Nicebutdim (love the forum name), welcome. It's easy to bypass the 'Insufficient priveledges' thing. Just send $500.00 (US) paypal to my account at justjoshinbancoamurica, a\c no. 5276265467346637 P.S. you spelt priveledges wrong, should be 'privethedges'. I am in one of those moods today...

    Where do I stand?

    Anyone have any guesses what the letter 'P' stands for and what the letter 'B' stands for (I'm not from they area-so haven't a clue), but I am a curious interested party. ;) I will start: P = Plutonium B = Boxer shorts

    Where do I stand?

    Where do I stand? Quite frankly, out on a limb, sorry. You tell them that it is in your opinion unsafe to drive (employees duty to raise concerns under the H&SWA). If you do that then have it witnessed. Next, by your description, the boss will give you grief. Depending on the severity of...

    It raining, it’s snowing. I know I’m not going.

    I could walk to the pub, would only take six minutes, but it's a crap pub so I do not frequent it. No feasible train connections for me, unless I leave for work the day before I am due to commence taking up duties. I could stay in but I am unlucky enough for that to be pretty much a no-no. :(

    Underdog that is the w168 lol

    Sorry if you think my post was negative, I didn't say our car was indicative of all 168's, each time I have it INDY fixed I think that will be the end of it, mechanically it has been good but electronics wise it has been dismal, but I guess I purchased a lemon. Was just telling it like it is...

    Spelling in adverts

    I've noticed quite a few examples (not on here) of 'draw' instead of drawer, as in "I opened the draw to get a towel out".

    The people who solved the enigma code would struggle with that one .

    OTT Service Hospitality

    I was astounded when one day entering B&Q a male assistant who was tasked to inquire how he could assist entering customers said to me something like 'Hi how are you today, is there anything I can help you with?'. I replied "I am fine thanks, how are you today", he told me that in 17 years of...

    What Have You Done To Your Merc Today?

    Had the car washed (yes, I was lazy) and was very impressed by Londonscottish posting that he had actually used "the collapsible easy pack box thing", maybe because it is out of sight that I never think of using it (my bad); perhaps now it will stay in my mind that it is there for a purpose...
