Two dealers quoted vastly different costs when itemised out for all my needs. Best ask the dealer for the upfront ££

I didn’t do it personally as it was part of the replacement work for the subframe carried out by the main dealer. Parts not expensive but it was the additional time that bumped it up 🥴.

On my previous 2010 212 I had to drop the fuel tank to replace the brake lines.

I used a Makita impact wrench on the Caliper bolts in the end. Should have reached for it straight away 😂

Modern extinguishers now have a 5-10 year life span then there are disposed of. Service intervals are generally a visual annually and cylinders are no longer pressure tested. This is why they have pressure gauges fitted with the exception of co2 which is checked by weight. Try not to get the...

Be helpful if you could say which model, year engine type etc 😊. My old 350 cdi was self priming so I never had issues. Suspect either faulty injector(s) or air entry in any number of places if something has been disassembled.

Definitely do the rear brake pipes as the subframe needs dropping along with the fuel tank. When I had my rear subframe replaced (foc), brake pipes and new air spring wishbone pans I had to pay another £1400 at the dealers.

Taking the cost of tyres these days and for peace of mind I would get a decent four alignment done or the front tracking looked at. If all ok great if not then it’s now rectified 😊

I had awesome service at MB Guildford recently The polar opposite to that at Brooklands yesterday when I went in to inquire about a part. Rather rude and dismissive I felt

Sounds like the linkage on the motor in the roof lining has become disconnected. When the tailgate is fully open and you operate the button to close does the linkage arm which is visible at the top move.

It’s the cover for the washer for the headlights. Should be closed until washer is activated

Only interested in selling nice new AMG and hosting the “experience track events”. They couldn’t even be bothered to look up the part number for the subframe to tell how much it was and a delivery date.

2010 212 estate 350 cdi. Not full service by MB by any means. Rear subframe replaced FoC courtesy MB Sandown in Guildford. They provided super service. Admittedly other work was required aka brake lines. They were very badly corroded. Interesting to note the rear airbag bottom suspension...

Just like to say that my 2010 E class estate has also failed. Became apparent when I had to brake sharp and the car moved rightwards ! Just been mot’d as well. MB at Guildford have been brilliant. Confirmed over the phone that it was FoC work. Presented car to the dealer for the evidence to be...

I got my replacement battery from Tanya a few weeks ago. Varta AGM for my T212 350 cdi. Best price and delivery by far. On my doorstep within 36 hours.
