    W202 alarm

    Well if it fixes the fault I might just leave it permanently disconnected. Don't need a poxy alarm anyway, no one takes any notice of them! Thanks for your help.

    W202 alarm

    This is all sounding expensive! What would happen if I just disconnected the siren?

    W202 alarm

    What's the PSE pump, is that what operates the central locking etc? If so that is all fine.

    Use of 'summer' tyres below 7 degrees

    I had thought about getting a cheap front wheel drive banger for winter to save the w202 getting rusty.

    W202 alarm

    Never thought about checking for bad earths, that's the quickest and cheapest option to explore first! Thanks

    I wonder if robinsons in Cambridge are doing any deals?

    W202 classic vs esprit/sport ride height difference

    It's quite noticeable, someone at work has a c180 and mine is a sport, mine looks like it sits a lot lower. If I wasn't on the ipad I would post a picture.

    Sorry about my reply, the others above came in while typing mine!

    Use of 'summer' tyres below 7 degrees

    So then are winter tyres a waste of time? I was thinking of getting some as my car is useless in the snow, but it could do with new tyres, so do you think getting just new decent summer tyres will make it better in snow?

    manual shift cannot get above ~4000 rpm

    Does it go past 4000 rpm when in normal automatic mode?

    Engine not accelerating past 40mph

    Another vote for the maf sensor, my car wouldn't go above 80, nor accelerate from a standing start very well, cleaned maf and everything back to normal, in fact the idle was smoother after cleaning.

    H7 White/Blue Any thoughts?

    I have Osram night breakers in my car, really quite impressed with them. Years ago I fitted an aftermarket hid kit in my BMW coupe, took it out, it was rubbish!

    W202 alarm

    Mine has been doing it ever since I have had the car, which is over 2 years now so anything living should be well dead! It's just annoying and seems to be getting getting worse. It's the rapid flashing of the indicators the other day that started me worrying about it more.

    W202 alarm

    I have a problem with the alarm on my car, it is a facelift 202 and will randomly go off, so have resorted to turning off the interior sensors everytime I park it at night, mostly this is ok. However the other day I noticed that the indicators on it were flashing really fast but no siren going...
