270

Noticed that the glowplug light on the instrument panel hadn't gone out after the engine had started. First off dabbed a wire from the battery positive in turn to the tip of each plug. Found one that didn't give a spark. Measured that one with my multimeter and found it was open circuit, luckily...

Did the EGR bypass about 6 months ago and can report that this has been successful, apart from one issue. My ML is driven fairly gently around the local country roads, and the turbo can be heard faintly in the background. If I give it some sustained wellie, like to pass a slow bus on a steep...

Hi all, looking to do a oil service on my CDI 270 CLK 209 and wondered what's the best oil to ensure it runs smoothly?

Looking through the forums sounds like the AAM on my ML 270 cdi is gone. I can lock the doors from the central rocker and lock the driver door with the key but can't with either of my two keys. I have replaced the batteries in both keys and tried reprogramming several times to no effect. All...
