    Oil leak, 2006 cdi220

    The old girl has covered 147k and now a drip drip of the black stuff has appeared. My local mechanic had a quick look from underneath by removing the cover, his opinion was that it was coming from the oil cooler. Now at 147k do you think its a gasket failing or possibly the oil cooler itself...

    W211 ipod bluetooth adapter

    I`m trying to do exactly the same thing here, but it seems there`s no power coming to the bluetooth dongle. Strange thing is when i select AUX on the Audio 20 it has the telephone icon there, (i also have the Merc phone adapter in the centre console) The previous owner must have had an iPod...

Looking at the battery it`s the Heavy Duty version, 100aH/900CCA, it`s white and...

    Advice on these Oil Change Suction Pumps

    also wondered if the plastic tube will go all the way to the bottom of the sump, there isn`t an anti-splash tray in the W203 diesel lump or similar?

    Advice on these Oil Change Suction Pumps

    thanks for all the replies, so the consensus is basically to get one! Only thing left is do i go for the electric type or the hand pump, suppose there`s little difference?

    Advice on these Oil Change Suction Pumps

    Hi all, As it says in the title, are these any good, or no good?! Mine is the `06 w203 diesel engine. Do they get enough oil out of this engine, the same as a standard oil change? This one here seems to get decent reviews http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0047N08GW/?tag=amazon0e9db-21 Thoughts?

    Same side here, so where does that leave us? I see there`s also Textar, ATE and Eicher discs to suit, some cheaper some dearer, which ones are the best? I can`t replace discs plus pads every 5 - 10k or so.

Disappointed they`ve only lasted this long :(

    Should you test drive a car before buying?

    Just yesterday i bought my first Merc, an `06 c220 auto diesel and one of the plus points for the sale was the dealers test drive which lasted all of 10 miles!! In fact he purposely took me up some bumpy lanes to reassure me the suspension was all sound. I drove it back and i couldn`t really...
