    W211 e500 buying

    I was only recently looking at buying an e500 - I ended up with a cls and the 5.5 as it doesn't have the SBC pump and I don't need an estate as I have an estate as my other car and didn't matter about the poorer rear headroom as I don't sit in the back haha! There was a silver estate e500 for...

    Obtaining service history

    Thanks for the replies, When I emailed the local jct600 they said via email: "good afternoon If this is an 07 plate vehicle, it won’t be supported by a digital service record and would have had a book stamped. Kind regards" 🤣 That was sheffield jct600 Thanks

    Obtaining service history

    I've got a question... I tried to obtain any electrical/digital service history and was told anything pre 2012 or so doesn't have any digital service history - surely any services are logged on say a central mercedes computer database? Thanks in advance and sorry if the mercedes method...

    Cls500 M273 judder/vibration/pulsing when creeping

    Think mb want 295ish and can get it down to around 275 with the mb club card and 240 for a local German car specialist - I used to have star diagnostic from when I had a w215 but wasn't sure if I'd end up with another mb so let it go *doh* - to check the gearbox oil temp. I've done a valve block...

    Cls500 M273 judder/vibration/pulsing when creeping

    It does it roughly once per 2 rotations of the crank so about twice per second, you can feel it without the brakes on (as if possibly one engine mount gone and the engine rocking) I'll try the engine mount test as per the YouTube video and look to get the gearbox serviced depending what the...

    Cls500 M273 judder/vibration/pulsing when creeping

    99k miles, there's an invoice which includes but it might be a dodgy one as the vat number is invalid so got to presume it might have never been done or may not have been done correctly if it actually was done 🤣

    Cls500 M273 judder/vibration/pulsing when creeping

    Hello, Recently bought a 2007 cls500, I seem to have a problem as per above. With the car in drive and creeping with the brake held so it rolls forward, it feels like what can be described as a pulsing forwards - not too dissimilar to pad pickup or warped discs but while creeping rather than...

    MB could learn from Volvo

    from my experience of S60's the headlights are a total pita as per most car to remove the headlights, and personally i'd rather my eyeballs were held in by more than two plastic clips which will probably break as soon as you hit anything... you wouldnt want your eyeballs falling out if you...

    m113 vs m113k airboxes...

    Hello, I've read by googling about a bit of a power gain using the supercharged m113K airboxes on the m113 engines, is this true or is it just internet B.S? IMO, they look better - showing the intake manifold lol :thumb: Alex

    personally *touches wood repeatedly* my '00 CL has been quite well behaved. its had a garage that seem to be a bit bodgey in some departments look after it while the last owner had it (front balljoint "fitted" using a hammer i think which was promptly binned and replaced correctly) - last...

    abc height calibration...

    Hello, My CL leans to the right about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch (its noticeable if you look at the car on the flat) regardless of set suspension height on the toggle switch and doesnt sag on any of ther corners. Anyway, does anybody happen to know how much mercedes charge for the calibration or...
