    Positive remote car buying experience from MB Wakefield

    We do see a fair number of disappointed customers on forums but thought I would share our recent remote purchasing experience with MB Wakefield. Liked a W177 A250 on Autotrader and the car was fairly priced. The sales contact was very prompt in responding, showed no hesitancy in emailing and...

    MB Servicing Berkshire / Surrey area

    Only good things to say about MB Guildford. Used to get our W169 and S204 serviced at Guildford although they seem to point things out a bit early than really needed, a subjective matter. PCS Horndean is a bit of a drive away, but definitely worth it.

    W177 A Class IRVM Part compatibility

    Hi all Wonder if someone could look up part compatibility for a 2018 W177 A Class please? Looking to add auto dimming internal rear view mirror to our 2018 A class. Done this before on our W169 with help from forum members, I am assuming it would be plug and play again for W177. There are two...

    TRACTION ERROR 2019 A250

    +1 Difficult to lock up with no braking involved. Expecting TC to recover an understeering front end that has already lost grip is too much of an ask.

    Cgi timing chain

    Pretty common issue on the engine. Take it to a specialist and repair costs with genuine Merc parts would be around 2k.

    Brake line corrosion

    Sorry, not checked on the thread for a few days. Thanks to all the contributions. The car will be going to Olly as there are a few other bits needing attention as well. It is indeed thought provoking that manufacturers can't be bothered to put together parts that last, especially critical ones...

    Brake line corrosion

    My 2012 S204 went in for service and the garage picked up OSF brake pipe corrosion. Is this a full brake line replacement? Thanks
