    Error message p2553

    Took it to PCS at Horndean. They replaced blocked air filters. Then they had the map on the car interrogated. Found it had been mapped badly before. New map all sorted. Sold car to a friend hasn't missed a beat since.

    Benz On The Green 5th of May 2018

    I have sold my E350 cab due to lack of space. With this in mind I will not be parking at the George so my space is available. If nobody objects I will still partake in the drive out and attend but park out of site. Thanks to all those who advised on my options to replace the E350 in another...

    What brake pads?

    I run an A207 E350. I was after some advice on brake pads. I'm looking for more bite and a slightly better pedal. Has anyone switched from oem pads and noticed an improvement. The car stops no question but sometimes I find myself having to rethink the amount of pressure I'm putting on the brake...

    E350 CDI Brabus D6

    I see what you mean. I'm on the fence. Personally only my opinion. I like the colour but not the two tone. I would have all one colour with black decals. But as I say just my opinion.

    Next car. AMG or somthing else?

    Thanks guys. What I think I'm going to do: The Benz on the green meet is in a couple of months. Plenty of E's and C's to look at. Plus owners to speak to. I'm better off selling mine in the warmer months anyway. Just need to find an XFR to have a look at around the same time. Then I can make a...

    Next car. AMG or somthing else?

    The list seems to have split people as it has me. The XFR appeals in may ways mainly the engine which I cant seem to find a bad review about. In my price range it comes in as the latter reg car. The C63 I think would be amazing fun but having owned a diesel C320 before it would look exactly the...

    Next car. AMG or somthing else?

    Ok so hopefully not too much ridicule. I am looking for some constructive advice on my next vehicle. I currently have an A207 350cdi. Great to look at but dull as dishwater to drive. It did what it was bought to do and got the family down to the south of France and was fun whilst there. Mrs has...

    Best Drying Cloth/Chamois

    I used to Valet cars many moons ago now. But then I always used a Vileda Flunky. Then just a light wipe with a micro fibre towel. Everyone I have recommend these to is still using them. You must rinse in clean water as you dry. A lot of people just ring out and then go back to the car. If you...

    Thanks all for the advice.

    Debadging / Rebadging

    I'm curious why you want to re-fit? Most people go the other way. You know what you car is why does it have to tell everyone else. I think tailgate gates and boot lids these days can look very busy with all the letters and numbers. Off is easier to clean and nicer lines. Just my opinion.

    Too fast for the road?

    I saw him run. It was a sight to behold.

    Scratched glass

    Thanks Phil. Do you know if they have to remove the glass?

    Thoughts on the E Class coupe...

    I must concede looks aside it is a pretty uninspiring drive. I came out of a C320 which seemed more lively. I drive a mile munching Vauxhall for work and find a throw this around more. Come summer time though it will all be forgotten for days out with the family with the hood down. I myself am...

    Scratched glass

    I'm looking for advice. On the test drive of my E350 cab I obviously wanted to test the hood functioned as it should so operated said hood and all the windows. I was unaware that the car had been sat a little while and what must have been grit or sand or something similar had built up on the...
