4matic

At same dealer as C32 spotted this, ok its a petrol but even allowing for a proper 2K LPG conversion it would then give 40+ mpg and looks a lot more than 20K's worth of car??

I'm looking for recommendations for a good recon or exchange service for the front axles on my '90 300TE. Alternatively, if anyone here has a pair in good shape I'd like to hear from them.

Was in Devon over the weekend, Brixham to be exact and saw a beautiful Swiss registered silver 350 4matic estate. WANT ONE! Even more so as i bumped my C240 sport on the M5 south as i went down, bumper, bonnet, headlight, grill oh well!

I've been considering replacing the valve stem seals on my 89 300te because of the copious smoke when up to temperature, as i pull away. The problem was worse this summer than it had ever been and was getting embarrasing and making town driving impossible. However I took the car on a long...

Thought this time of year would be best to ask this question. ;) How many potential purchasers are there out there for the new ETS 4Matic four wheel drive system in the C and E class saloons and estates in the UK. Its available with the new diesel engines on the continent now in LHD. :) I...

I just bought my 300TE 4matic last week knowing I was going to have to sort out a few things, one of which is its abysmal ride which is best described as choppy. I noticed that the hydraulic fluid reservoir was very low and the vacuum spheres seem prime candidates for overhaul. However, I...

I have owned this lovely old car for 8 years and the 4Matic has always worked fine until recently. MB main dealer Warwickshire had a £1200+ go at it but failed to find the problem. Possibly it is the drive shafts I'm told having had new sensors fitted as well as rewiring to the electronically...

Happy New Year all!! Was just wondering if anyone knew if we in the UK were going to be able to get 4Matic on new E Classes like they sell in the US? Ta very much....

Their are two alternatives to the standard 300E saloon that I am investigating. The 4-Matic which I understand is just the same as the standard 300E but with 4 wheel drive. The 300E 24-Valve which is obviously more powerful but does it have any other improvements ? Can anyone advise on these...
