speed

I have just come back from Austria with the car which I opened the car up down the autobahn but got a strange noise which sounds like its from the front tyres (I wanted to see the top speed with the remap but the noise made me stop! . The best way to describe the noise is like the tyres are...

Going round a roundabout this morning and BING... ESP/ABS lights kick off and the steering gets very heavy...plug it into my £20 OBD reader and it tells me it's the front left wheel speed sensor (although I thought they're called ABS sensors?) Anyway.... where's best for this part? ECP only...

Anyone heard much about a transmission jolt when the 2012 7 speed autobox downshifts from 5 -3 (ie slowing from about 40mph to 35mph)? I remember at least one other member here posted about it a while back, and I found some users on a US forum talking about the same thing. It happens to...

Theoretical question just out of interest - does anyone know what the actual top speed of a W204 C320 CDI would be if it was not electronically limited to 155mph?

10 yrs ago I was told by 2 shops (one of them being MB franchise) that they do not balance wheels past 70 mph.. Now I am back to the square one contemplating new tyres.. Obviously performance tyres have all sorts of speed indexes up to 300 kmh.. Could you guys tell - whats the...

taken from my 187k e320 saloon. No issues with either the engine or gearbox, removed as the car is being used for a project.

Hello everyone, haven't been back in a while and I hope everyone is well. the steering in my 1999 C230K has developed a moaning noise that comes from the engine bay when I turn the steering wheel at very low speeds (pulling into or out of a parking space mainly) It's annoying and pretty...

Hi I do a round 15,000 miles a year and had a few close calls with speed cameras (been lucky up to now) so ......... Can any one recommend a speed camera detector, don't really want to pay more than £100 for one. I have been on a few web sites looking at them :confused: some have annual...

Downloaded the speed cameras data today from pocketgps site but have no audio warming sounds is this possible on a command NGT 4.5 unit in a 2012 C63???? If so how do you get it.

Hi everyone, Does anyone know whether a 2005 W220 S500 has a OBD socket? If yes, which type of OBD does it have? I would like to buy an aftermarket HUD speed display but I am not sure if it will work on this car. Any help is much appreciated. Cheers :thumb:

I hope someone can help me here. My car vibrates heavily at 150-160 km. Faster or slower than that it is smooth. Engine mounts, transmission mount and flex discs(both front and rear) are replaced with original parts from the dealer. Checked the tire balances(tires were also replaced in middle...

Hi everyone, I am looking for car camcorder with speed display. Can anyone recommend me one? Thanks :)

I drove my 320 CDI on the motorway yesterday. Set the cruise control for 70mph. Cruise control kicked in, but instead of maintaining a constant smooth speed (as it has always done), it sped up and slowed down by approximately 5-6 kph. I could feel the car surging and slowing, confirmed by...

I nipped out last night to go to somewhere I had never been to before, so was following the SatNav. On the A40 I needed to turn off at Goodrich Castle. The SatNav showed the junction as a lead off from the A40, so I didn't think about slowing too much. At this point there are no...

I am after a fully functioning 722.5 automatic box for my 320 ce . Ideally I would like to try it first in the car it is to be removed from . I am also interested buying a complete car that has one fitted if cheap enough , damaged, mot failure etc.

I had the speed cameras downloaded on a sd card, I removed the card from the command slot to put in a music card, now when I want to put the sd card with the speed cameras on back into the comand slot the speed camera files will not load to the comand (Ntg4.5 ) Any help please :dk:

New cat approx. 5 weeks ago, autobox oil & filter changed approx. 17k miles ago. Nice Pioneer stereo with...

When I am parking the car at very low speed, the steering in my CLK seems heavy. If I turn the steering left or right when I am going very slowly, it feels as if perhaps I am turning too much for the speed I am going (I am used to more power steering) and that I am putting too much stress on...

Whats your opinion or experience? Today was on m25 after Gatwick junction-average speed cameras.Set up cruise on 50 and relaxing.So many drivers speeding and I mean like 3 of 5 doing 60-70.Crazy, they don 't care about their driving license or are just stupid? Will they get a ticket...

Just curious really. On my M40 journey, returning from the Rebellion/SRR dyno day today there was a marked Volvo police car ahead. In view of this, most of us were doing 75mph, as was the police car. The police car then sped up significantly and moved to lane two - lets say he way doing...
