    Is there a "Howto" to help diagnosing CPS faults?

    Probably need to bring it in (Olly you have fixed it for me before, in fact you replaced the MAF for me when it was serviced.) I was just hoping it was something simple! Probably have a little think on this, as its going to be a while before I have the time to get the car looked at.

    Is there a "Howto" to help diagnosing CPS faults?

    Ok thanks, I know that I need to get the codes read I was just hoping that it could be an easier diagnosis based on the symptoms. I would expect the car to run a bit rougher if it was MAF I dont know what symptoms of EGR blockage or failure are... It had a new MAF a couple of years ago but I...

    Is there a "Howto" to help diagnosing CPS faults?

    My ML320 has without doubt been one of the most trouble free cars I have ever owned, but it has recently developed an issue. I am pretty sure its the CPS however as hard as I have looked on this site and others, there doesn't seem to be a definitive list of the symptoms that could confirm if the...

    Fuse 8 blowing when radio is turned on...

    I have a problem with my E320 W210 that is progressively getting worse. The 7.5amp fuse (fuse no 8) under the rear seat blows when I turn on the radio. This is doubly annoying as it appears to be the same fuse that controls the electric windows, wing mirrror adjustment and remote boot release...

    Bumper Removal on a W163 Anyone...?

    Olly (BlackC55) told me how to do it when I wanted to remove mine to have it resprayed. From memory it was pretty simple but I cant remember exactly how to do it as I never got round to having the thing sprayed. You shouldn't need to remove the bumper though to fit sensors I have done it on my...

    w210 1999 E320 Avantgarde

    Hi mate... I started by stripping the wheel of lacquer by using nitromoors paint stripper. This works brilliantly to get the clearcoat pretty much all off. I gave it a couple of good coats of stripper leaving the last one on for an hour, but dont let it dry as it can eat in and score the...

    Buying tips, W126 420SEC

    Have to say I agree entirely. I have seen around 8 SEC's now since I started looking, ranging from a few grand up to 9K for a particularly nice late 500. In all cases there were issues including the last expensive one that was from a specialist dealer in Surrey. Most of the ones I have seen...

    Attempted Stolen Star!

    I read somewhere that company in the US was making bonnet stars with razor sharpened edges, so any scumbag that tried to nick it would end up with bleeding cut fingers! Cant remember what they were called but having had similar problems in the past with vandalism, I have thought about some...

    Ok I admit it was a silly question, but maybe I'll store them with my spuds just in case!

    Storage of new brake discs

    Perhaps a slightly odd question but are there any specific considerations for storage of new unused brake discs? Given they can warp etc are they affected by heat or cold when stored in a garage? My garage gets really hot this time of year and I won't get round to fitting my new discs for a few...
