/ /''' had the car into an auto transmission specialist in Swansea yesterday (Mike Tucker) mainly for an oil and filter change, and he read the stored codes while it was there. There were two: P047128 exhaust back pressure sensor 1 has a malfunction. P245396 the input for differential pressure...

The consumer rights act 2015 comes into play here. if a fault develops within the first month you can reject the car outright, but, if it’s longer, you have to give them one attempt at a repair. if the fault recurs or they can’t fix it, you have a right to reject and get your money back. ive...

morning learned friends, I’ve got a 2010 c250 cdi with the 7g Tronic. box. most of the time the box works fine, but recently it’s taken misbehaving. From cold, and as long as you keep driving, it’s performs faultlessly, but if you interrupt the journey by stopping the engine, on restart it goes...

I’ve got a similar sound (could be the same) on my C250. Same engine? I’ve asked on the forums, but so far no definite conclusions. Seems worse when engine cold, but still audible when fully hot, but definitely louder on acceleration and when engine is under load. Only had the car two months...

1 thanks, Markjay, I’ll borrow the Samsung again.

It’s an Estate

Brief update: walked down the paper shop this morning and heard a double decker bus pull away from the bus stop with a loud roaring noise from the diesel. That’s the noise I’m hearing, but obviously not quite so loud!

thanks to everyone for your suggestion. There is no rattling on start up, in fact there are no untoward noises. This noise only appears on putting the engine under load. Lift off, it stops, accelerate and its back, but will fade away as the engine warms. I have found the top engine cover is...

2011 C250 CDI ,90,000 miles. New to me. From cold, engine note is very gruff sounding. Is quiet on idle but on acceleration, almost sounds like a V8 ( I wish)! Gets progressively quieter as it warms up, until when fully warm sounds normal. Any ideas, anyone? 1 / /.

1 Thank you so much for the info. I’ve tried to get this to work for a month. I’ll see if I can find a old android phone to try.

2011 c 250 with command online system. I cannot get it to connect to the internet. Mobile is an iPHONE 10. Can anyone explain (in simple terms) how to get a connection? Thanks.

Hello all. Just joined forum. I’m from Swansea and just bought a 2011 C250 CDI Sport estate. Iridium Silver with Alpaca grey leather. Due to lockdown, only managed to do a few miles so far. Looking forward to lots more miles! he
