And so the saga continues ever on This time the mystery of the coolant dropping with NO apparent leak Ive been topping it weekly to the top of the divider in the expansion bottle and over a week of shortish runs ( 10 miles per day ) it slowly drops. Yesterday i checked it as normal and topped it...

Alarm and seat control modules are known to cause this

Ive done a fixorage Some of you might remember the LCD screen on my facelift C180K when white . Well just for the record you CAN swap just the screen from a second hand cluster and the screen is just plug in

Thanks , il let you know if i solve this issue

So the digital / LCD display on my dash has gone and failed , well its almost white but the digits are all there ( just ) . AFAIK the dash is specific to the car , in other words i cant fit a dash from a scrapped car or i loose total mileage . Would it be even remotely possible to swap the LCD...

And the problem is - the screen has gone white , writing is all there ( just ) and appears to be yellow . At night with the lights on it goes even brighter and the writing is unreadable.

Gearbox doing a funny thing . Its happened twice now a few weeks apart but only when its cold . Basically i pull away as normal and it doesnt change up , pull over and switch between C , S and M . Put it back in S and its fine and changes as normal . 56 Reg C108 Avantgard Any ideas please

It FAILED , On Lambda being too high ( 1.06 ) and a hole in the back box which im hoping is the cause of the high reading

God these cars are a pain , on the way home from work i went through some floods , not deep just a lot of water across the road however the car seem unaffected and drove home the remaining 5 miles fine Went out an hour later and it wouldnt change gear on auto , went to manual flappy paddles and...

SOLVED , Tickovers steady and perfect , after much research the pipe goes to the changeover valve and has something to do with the supercharger . Ive reset the Gearbox and TPS and its flying again
