    Poor Starting E350 Cdi

    Poor Starting E350 Cdi

    Morning Everyone. My 2009 E350 Cdi Coupe really struggles in these cold mornings to start. I have to turn the key and wait for the pre-heat light to go out 6 or 7 times before the engine turns over properly......then it feels lumpy until its warmed up. There is no warning light on the dash...

    E350 CDI Thermostat. Bleeding required?

    Took me 15 minutes mate. Its right at the front of the engine at the top. Large coolant pipe goes right into it. Undo the pipe ( theres a clip like a circlip that stays in the thermostat that needs levering up with a flat screwdriver to release the pipe), flex the pipe upwards so you don't...

    Engine Bay Connectors - One Astray!

    Hi Everyone, Hope you all had a great Xmas. Before Xmas I had the oil cooler seals done on my E350 Cdi Coupe. Since then the Thermostat has packed up not as a result of previous work but I guess due to the milage of the car (144k). When I replaced the thermostat today I found a connector...

    E350 CDI - Not warming up

    I have a weird situation with my 2009 E350 Cdi Coupe. I've recently had the oil cooler seals changed but since then the car has developed a possible issue that I don't think would be related but just wanted some opinions. The car don't seem to reach optimum temperature now. It used to sit...

    Rear Fog Light Issue

    Thanks for your response Richard. Is there any way of checking if there is a fault with the Sam unit in regards to the rear foglight?

    Rear Fog Light Issue

    The light area which is red is full led. There is a clear centre section to the light with a standard bulb but I believe that is the reversing light. It's just baffling me bigtime and bloody annoying as its holding up my Mot.

    Hi everyone, I need to get replacement front shocks for a 2009 E350 Cdi Sport Coupe and wondered if anyone knew if the shocks are the same between the sport and standard chassis and its just the springs that are different or if they use different shocks. I only ask as i've seen Bilstein...
