I thought the 619 CORNERING ILLUMINATION was the fog light bit but the 616 BI-XENON HEADLICHT W.ACTVIE CURVELIGHT LEFT-DRIVE was the bit where the lights move with the corner? I agree Merc220cls though - they’re the best lights I’ve had on a car

I thought that would be the case but I took my friend out and he’s convinced the difference he saw in his was quite noticeable whereas neither of us could see anything in mine even though we were specifically looking for it. I’m probably over thinking things but I’m sure I read somewhere that...

Morning all I have a 2010 CLS Grand Edition and I’m confused about the lighting. According to the data card I have two options - 616 BI-XENON HEADLICHT W.ACTVIE CURVELIGHT LEFT-DRIVE 619 CORNERING ILLUMINATION The fog lights illuminate as I turn but my friend who also had a CLS says there...

Another vote for Star here.

Merc Medics in Send have done good work for me.

I had my windscreen replaced at a MB dealership. Primary reason for choosing them was that Autoglass refused to use an original MB screen despite my insurers confirming that they were happy to pay for it. The big difference I noticed using the dealer is that they weren’t prepared to allow me to...

Glow plugs and relay are next on the list. The sensor was only £30 so I thought it was worth a punt. Thanks for the link - if only it was obvious “in the flesh” - what a daft location! Will have another play later.

Good afternoon all I’m having a few starting issues with my 2010 CLS Grand Edition - it’s turning over a lot and often needs to be turned off a couple of times before it’ll pick up. Running wise it’s fine and I’m averaging 39mpg. Fuel Filter was replaced last week. I’ve checked with an...

Evening all We’ll filter changed today with no problems whatsoever. Car fired up first turn of the key. Thanks again for the advice.

Thanks for all your replies chaps. Shall give it a go next weekend.

Good morning all I’m going to be changing the fuel filter on my CLS soon and wondered about priming it. I’ve read contradictory comments, some say stick it on and just start the car, others say it needs to be primed first. So, first question is what is the general consensus? Second, if it...

Sorry, I meant I understand about oil collecting underneath the turbo/air intake area but wondered what effect the leaking seal had on driving performance (to be fair I never noticed a difference in my S211 as well as the CLS).

Morning all Sorry to jump in on this thread but having just changed the orange seals this morning on my CLS I was wondering whether there were any noticeable symptoms of these leaking? I get the oil leak on top of the engine but I wondered whether there’d be something noticeable from a driving...

In mine I use the Linguatronic system and the command “Guidance Instructions Off” - that mutes the voice but retains the on-screen directions. Not sure if that is common to all systems though.

I was impressed with Merc Medic in Send recently.
