I found out last weekend when we had that warm weather that my S204 a/c is again blowing only warm air, despite being checked for leaks last year and re-gassed. Fearing a holed condenser or duff compressor I got a mobile A/C guy round this morning to see what the problem was. He emptied the...

30 minutes of aural pleasure;) Just about every V8 AMG model included.

A close family member who is head of IT for a global company based in the UK has a big security problem. He has been hacked, or rather his phone with the master password for his companies IT infrastructure has been accessed. He says he stupidly shared it with another member of his IT team and...

Anyone watch You tube videos and get frustrated with the awful intrusive ads before every video? Ad Block doesn't work but this one does. For Chrome browsers. ( Being removed in June 2024 on Chrome extensions) Just switch to Edge for You tube. This may even work with the intrusive ad's some...

I found this London based website that appears to stock plenty of carbon fibre parts for mainly AMG models. Looks like good reviews on Trust Pilot for quality of fitment. Paying with a cc should guard against any problems. Worth a look anyway. I have bookmarked the site for future reference;)...

Just for a bit of fun, what is your favourite decade and why? Listening to some music earlier got me thinking, what is my favourite decade? Without question, it is the 60's. I left school in July'66, just in time to watch England win the World Cup I started my first job for the princely sum of...

Seems too cheap to be genuine...

Last night my grandson Ollie was in a lot of pain in his groin region. He was given pain killers and managed to get off to sleep. This morning he was in tears such was the pain. Daughter rang GP surgery and was seen before 8 30am. Dr advised a trip to A&E was necessary so off to Bournemouth...

I keep getting two error messages come up on the cluster for n/s rear marker lamp and n/s number plate bulb faulty. Give them a wiggle and they illuminate again. One bulb is very dim although working. I think I have the problem described in this very good video below. I'm going to tackle the job...

Deleted. Just noticed another thread already running.

Not eBay but Autotrader. Cracking looking car with v low miles, lovely light interior and looks well looked after. This won't be on sale long I guarantee. If I wanted another W212 I'd be on my way tomorrow. Edit: I see its on eBay as well...

I've been looking on and off for the last couple of months at W213 E63's and this particular car caught my initial interest. Advertised on eBay as a 30k mile saloon, no modifications mentioned and at a dealer with no previous sales history on eBay. This is the car. Note the registration and...

I just picked my S204 after having the n/s/r door lock actuator replaced at my local non MB mechanic. What problems he had! First, he couldn't release the door lock from the door car without a special sized 5 point torx bit. Only Mercedes dealers (and indies) have them. Luckily for me he has a...

Can any owner (@Alps?) give the definitive answer about the performance exhaust fitted to the above car? Exactly when did Mercedes fit the quieter version with the OPF valve that mutes the noise so much? I have a feeling it is on cars post 2019 ie, 69 plate onwards. Does the inclusion of the IWC...

Not so cheap as last year, but R134 refrigerant refill down from £62 to £41 99 using voucher. https://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/ats-euromaster-6

There was a time. not too long ago when spotting quad exhaust outlets on the rear of a car meant you had a cooking V8/10/12. Not any moreo_O Check out this effort on a Ford van I think I'd be embarrassed to climb out of that with those on the back. But everyone is doing it. Puny 1.4 litre SE...

Just a heads up for anyone who needs an extra or replacement key for their Mercedes (and most other makes) this place could help. https://www.carkeyremotes.co.uk/ I got a new key cut and new fob programmed for the wife's Kia Rio today. £140. Very helpful guy who said he can supply most models...

Not specifically engine covers, more so the ones alongside each sill that can hide a multitude of problems if you were to take the covers off. But who bothers? Last week I found I had a leak of brake fluid, noticeable under the front passenger door. Got it booked into my local workshop as he...

Love the colour and the rims. Sounds damn good too. Anyone on here own it?

Can any member with a W213 and 19" AMG alloys confirm if the wheel bolt is 27mm or 45mm long please. A new member is fitting 213 alloys to his 212 and confirmation of the wheel bolt length would be appreciated. AWD suggest 45mm long but a 213 is not listed as a model that uses them??
