    W124 alarm - non MB?

    Perfect! :) Sort of... lol. It is great to know what "crap" that is. The strange thing it does the job with central locking for now and seems to be OK - so far. But the last thing I want it to fail me when not needed so I think I will consider it to be removed. optimusprime: how much of the...

    Bought the car 2 weeks ago... took it back today..

    Had W210 320Cdi which had the same "black death" under the cover. Took me overall 5 hours with dissolving it but I managed to save all 6 injectors with just seal change. It was my best Merc ever. 320 should be good fun aswell.

    W163 320 - poor mpg - where to start?

    Thanks to you all... all that just made me clam about "fuel performace". I had 275/55-17 and I have gone to 255/65-17 as that what I had as spare set. It feels a big more responsive but that compromized a grip. Still all good as it mostly driven by missis to drop or pick-up kids at nursery...

    W163 320 - poor mpg - where to start?

    Afternoon Could you please give me few pointers as where to start to try to reduce fuel consumtion? I did few tests recently and I get ~17 in city and ~22 on motorway. Considering that my 320 pertol got "only" 102k miles that seems to be a bit high. I have recently swaped tyres and reduced...

    W163 front caliper swap

    Good day Can anyone tell me if brembo calipers are straight swap over "older" type on front on W163? I got ML320 X reg and my o/s/f need swaping but I find more options for used brembo then my type and I wonder if I should consider swap of calipers? Any help would be great.

    Evening all This afternoon I did my wife's ML (X reg W163 320) brakes and I have notices front caliper has broken seal in 2 places plus I was unble to push it all the way in while installing new pads. I figured I would fix using repair kit: A163 420 02 83 and my question is: are they worth...

    Mayo under oil cap on ML163 320.

    Evening all I got a bit concern this morning when I had to add oil to my 320 ML163 and when lifted oil filler cap and there was quite a bit mayo. Vehicle is used on short runs - avg 10-15miles which I know is not very healthy for motor. But I know for fact it is not loosing coolant (I think)...

    4 cyl spark plugs on V6??

    It might sound stupid but I wonder if it is suitable to use OE spark plug designated for M111 (A003 159 75 03) for M112 (A004 159 50 03)?? They are the same gap (1.0mm)and yes they are different part numbers and different engines but what are other facts and figures that make them different...
