We do see a fair number of disappointed customers on forums but thought I would share our recent remote purchasing experience with MB Wakefield. Liked a W177 A250 on Autotrader and the car was fairly priced. The sales contact was very prompt in responding, showed no hesitancy in emailing and...

Hi all Wonder if someone could look up part compatibility for a 2018 W177 A Class please? Looking to add auto dimming internal rear view mirror to our 2018 A class. Done this before on our W169 with help from forum members, I am assuming it would be plug and play again for W177. There are two...

Selling due to emigration. 70K miles. I had this car since May 2016 and absolutely enjoyed every moment this car. Much quicker than my 203. Had the dreaded timing chain problem early on with this car and had both cam gears and chain replaced by Olly at PCS. Also had autobox service done with...

My 2012 S204 went in for service and the garage picked up OSF brake pipe corrosion. Is this a full brake line replacement? Thanks

Hi members Looking for some help here. The OSR door won't open with the outside or inside door handle. The lock mechanism operates normally. Any easy fixes or would it be replacing the actuator mechanism? Taking the door card out looks easy on youtube with the door open but not sure if the...

So here I am. I had my W203 C180 for 140k with the engine management never lighting up. Now a year on and 10k miles into with my W204 C250 CGI (48K on the clock). I had a rather rough start up (rather sounds like diesel and soon settles down) with no EML yesterday. Today it became more obvious...

Hi all On a mission to change the blower unit on our W169 but failed as I could not take the old unit out due to lack of room. I was able to unlock the old unit and take it off but can't find enough space to take the unit out. Am I doing something stupid here? Any bright ideas? Thanks

A week after the blower motor heater resistor packed up the blower motor started misbehaving. I got Valeo replacement unit from ECP and had a go at replacing the unit but couldn't take the original unit due to lack of room. Anyone does this before? I suspect it would be the same process for...

Been out looking for a new car. The car in question is a 2012 7G+ facelift C250 CGI. I am guessing the service interval in these cars is determined by driving pattern rather than mileage. Service history has been printed out from MB. Car has 85k on the clock. Print out shows services at 11k...

Could someone look up a VIN number please? I have been to the Russian sites, but I understand that these can be wrong. I am really looking if a COMAND 20 unit went into this van or an Audio 20. The VIN is WDF63960123609902. The post would be edited to remove the VIN once I get an answer...

Hi all Just looking for some forum thoughts please. Boiler has been down since 29th Aug as it was declared unsafe on the annual landlords check. The boiler has been fully serviced and insured. Any work done previously was authorised by the insurance company and carried out by 'gas safe'...

Hi All Expecting to pay at least £390.00 to get my car released for parking in a pay and display car park despite paying, displaying and parking properly. The site is £2.00 all day car park in Cecil St, Birmingham. Came back from work today to find my car missing. Local police have confirmed...

I had stayed in a motorway travelodge with free parking for a night a fortnight back. I had identified my car at check in on the CCTV images for parking to be validated. Now here comes the parking ticket for having parked for 13 hours. The company is called CP Plus. Having read previous...

Hi all Been thinking of upgrading to a S211 for a while. Saw this facelift S211 320 CDI Sport on autotrader and just cant stop the urge to drive 70 miles to see the car. It has clocked 133k miles with FMBSH as per the advert. I have never owned a 80k + mileage car and leaves me thinking...
