Looking for some advice and having seen posts on here before I know there are some knowledgable TV/Audio people here. Last year we replace an old Sony 40" tv with a 49" LG 49UJ634V, now this TV is better in every area than the previous Sony except in the sound. The sound quality is garbage and...

Hi Guys. I'm after some help and other peoples experience off the heater in there E-Class. My issue, a couple of weeks back whilst driving I suddenly noticed my left hand getting cold despite the temperature in the car set to 23c and the climate control set to Auto, the central dash vents were...

Yesterday I swapped my summer wheels for my winters but am getting 1 sensor reading as zero. The sensors were working fine when the wheels were removed earlier this year and they were all new just over a year ago (14 months :( ). The wheels were stored in tyre storage covers in one of the...

Had a small incident on Saturday that has left some nasty marks on the bumper along with some scratches. Before I go down the insurance route (want to try and avoid this) can any one give me an idea of what it would cost to have a rear bumper painted in metallic. And can anyone suggest a...

Morning all. This is the first winter i've had my 212 estate and i've come to the conclusion having the reverse camera is pointless as it is always filthy along with the rear window. It seems that the moment there is any moisture on the road the car likes to smear it all over the rear. Ive...

Morning all. I purchased a couple of months ago a used set of 17" wheels and winter tyres for my 2016 E212, they were from eBay but there was no mention of pressure sensors fitted and at the time I didn't think about it. I am off to Switzerland during late October and plan to do a few of the...

Can anyone suggest a good wifi hub that I can plug in to our BT business hub (that has not guest network option) to create a guest network. I want to keep the traffic limited to just internet usage and not let any access to other systems. Cheers Dean

Looking for some thoughts from those that might have been. We are planning a 10 day trip down to southern France and then in to the alps at the end of the month to play with the new toy and do a bit of geocaching. We have a bit of a plan of what roads we want to drive at the moment but with...

Looking for some suggestion as per title. A friend and I are off to play with Landrovers in Dusseldorf in a couple of weeks and will be driving back the following day with the train booked for late in the evening so I'm looking for something interesting to do on route. Something car...

Hi Guys. My 57 plate C200 coupe is telling me it want's it B service, I phoned MB Maidstone and was quoted over £500 to carry out the works and this included some recommended items like brake fluid. They could not book it in for nearly 3 weeks and none of the times they could suited me and...

Morning chaps. I have tried the search this morning but for some reason it won't work for me so I thought I would ask instead. My drivers seat has been squeaking for a long time and annoys the hell out of me, most of the time it can be stopped by adjusting the height up and down a...

Hi Guys, Looking for a little help with a knock on my C Coupe suspension. Have just had the car up on the ramp and the garage has identified what is causing the knock and given me an idea of cost but can't do the work for a few weeks. The lower suspension arm on both sides have split their...

:fail:fail Had a situation on saturday where by I ended up with a 1 inch gash in the sidewall of the front tyre, now normally I would have changed the tyre myself and been on my way but due to a couple of ongoing injuries this would have been heavily advised against by the doctors and...

My other half last night decided that she would like a bottle of Emva Cream Sherry and put it on her xmas list at the last minute. Having never heard of it I passed the request on to my sister as she has been asking me what she should get and has a little more time spare than I do. Today she...

Hi Guys, Need to order up some new front brake pads for my 57 plate C200CDI Coupe. I have tried the EBC brake shop and they list 3 different pads for my car in the green stuff range. Any one know the correct ones so i can order some up. Or a better suggestion?. Dean

I have an intermittent noise from the front whilst braking, it only happens occasionally and does not seem to effect the stopping power of the brakes. It sounds like something rubbing or grating, sort of like a pad that has worn flat. I have had a quick visual check with the wheels on and the...

Hi Guys, I did post this question in with the MPG one but did not get a answer so thinking it was missed. The car is a C200 CDI W203 on a 57 plate and has about 28k on the clock, was purchased from a main dealer fully serviced etc etc so i would hope everything was in check. I have been...

Second problem posted tonight so please forgive me. We bought a couple of weeks ago a C200 CDI (w203). I had hoped we could simply connect up both our phones to the car as simply as we can with our other vehicles but it seems not. The car has controls on the steering wheel and the radio...

Hi Guys, Been reading with interest over the last few weeks since picking up my 57 plate C200 CDI which i think is a W203. When the salesman gave his spiel he indicated that we should expect mid 40's to the gallon around town. Now i took that with a pinch of salt and figured maybe mid to...

Hello One and All, Just a quick intro, we have just collected our new (to us) C200 CDI on a 57 plate. It is the first MB I have owned and has replaced my 7 year old Astra that I have had for the last 6 1/2 years. Have been looking at all sorts and finally settled on this as we both found it...
