Hi All, Did an oil change on my Mum's 211 recently. Whilst under there, I noticed that there was a small amount of oil on what I think is the autobox?? There was also a very small patch on the plastic undertray cover at that same location. I'm talking about a few inches back from the...

Hi chaps as the title says my CLK 230 Kompresssor is leaking fuel from one of the components at the rear of the car. I am not sure what is back there but i'm assuming that there is a pump and filter amongst the pipes and tank. At the moment it only leaks during the first start of the day after...

I have a 2000 C320 (?W124) which started to leak water into the passenger footwell but it is getting a lot worse. It comes in on the left and the right corner of this footwell and is literally just pouring, soaking two towels in no time when driving. Seems to be worse after rain or carwash...

Hi all, I have a W210 with a leak from the outlet seals on top of the injection pump! Has anyone changed these seals themselves? If so what is involved? and do you need any specail tools? Thanks. Terry

Hello, My wing mirror (drivers side) is in one piece, but seems to be leaking so that the bottom half of it is a tinted brownish colour, the other half is standard. I just want to replace it as it doesn't look great and I figure it wont pass an MOT. I don't really care if it is tinted, etc...

Hi, looking for some pointers here. I recently purchased a CLK cabrio and during todays heavy rain I now have a drip coming from the drivers window. It's not were the window meets the seal it's in about an inch (basically the roof) were the black rubber strip meets the headlining & plastic...

Hi, Steam is coming out of the interior fan vents. I presume that the heater core has ruptured. Can anyone advise of a quick fix without removal? Can anyone advise on how to remove the heater core? Many thanks in advance, Graham

Hi all, I'm looking for a little advice here, as a second seal has started to leak/let by. I had the front one done by a local diesel specialist at a cost of £320 and although it fixed the problem (for now) I was kind of expecting them to clean the carbon residue off the entire area, but they...

Hi Guys Unable to find any info on this so here's what I did, after some faffing 1) drive front of car onto ramps. 2) syphon out all the fluid you can from the fluid container on the right hand side next to the screen washer. A 2 litre ice cream tub is big enough. 3) Get a drip tray...
