Good catch, I just assumed it was pressure, I should have looked closer!

Looks like the oil pressure gauge doesn't move when he starts it🤔

Just a quick point on the Middle East - quite a few EV's on the road in the UAE, charging points springing up all over the place. Below is a Snip from the Dubai Roads and Transportation Authority (RTA) Website The Board of Directors of the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has endorsed a...

Saw that car in July 2018 driving back from the Le Mans Classic, as others said, surprised the reg number has not been pulled

Just looking through a recent, last weekend, auction at Manor Park Classics and saw this, Sold for £12,075 probably plus fees I would think, they had a few other interesting MB's go through as well...

I know, absolute destruction in some engines!

I follow this YouTube channel as I find it fascinating - anyway the guy just dismantled the engine out of a 2017 C43 that had ingested water, thought folks might find it interesting.

I've had a 2011 ML500 (W164?) for 2 years here in UAE, obviously running the V8 in the UK would be ruinous but a couple of non engine related costs to consider. Mine is the Grand Edition so has LED lights, it cost the equivalent of just over £200 for a rear light unit when a single bulb /...

Like others I had never heard of this version let alone seen one until you posted your pics, then I see one here in Dubai, only difference I can see is that both the R and S are in red on this one, no idea if that is significant or not

Saw this in a Dubai Mall yesterday, not sure if it is a genuine beast or not (I'm not an expert on these things). I've obscured the license plate as you can get into trouble in the UAE for putting someone's picture online without their permission, I don't think that applies to possessions, but...

Mine is going in in a couple of weeks and I've left instructions with my daughter - she has custody of the car while I'm away - to instruct the dealer not to do the emissions update when they fix the airbag, not very confident they will listen to her though!

I don't think its just snake oil - I had a 2012 Volvo V60 D3 (2 litre 5 cylinder engine) before the Merc. I bought the Volvo at 3 years old with 50k miles on it. Within the first year the EML came on, luckily it had a warranty - having said that I found that the 'all singing, all dancing'...

I have a 2012 E350 CDI Convertible as well, bought 3 years ago with 80k miles on it, now has 110k miles and have no major issues with it, as a previous poster said, check its had the gearbox serviced, mine hadn't. Minor problems I've had where. Thermostat failed, engine wouldn't get up to...

Was looking at another members thread on the wisdom of buying a particular MB, followed their link to dealers that had the car they were considering buying and noticed the dealer also had this unusual beast for sale, a 1990 Ex Singapore Military G240...

Just an observation on the OBD figures, last decent run I did - C207 350 CDI - from Hampshire to North Yorks and back, the OBD read 48.5 but brim full to brim full calculation came out at 42.2, just highlighting that impressive as some of these readings are they are likely to be very optimistic...

Saw this maybe 3 years ago but just found the picture again, checked and its still on a blue Lambo. Also apologies if someone has already posted this but didn't fancy trawling through 1000+ pages to check

Turns out it was a damaged connection in the fuse box, total bill about £130 which I think is pretty reasonable for diagnostics and repair - I was braced for a significantly higher bill!

I have a 2011 ML500 on just over a 100k miles. I have had the attached advisory message come up, it usually comes up a few minutes (sometimes 5 or more) after I start and drive the car. The car is sitting normally, no front or rear 'droop' or 'sag'. If I try to change from comfort to sport or...

From memory mine was the most basic model you could get so no sunroof for me!

White 1971 Vauxhall Viva HC, not the one in the picture but identical to it, think it was 1156cc and reg was DUA 930K - ask me what my current car reg is and I have think about it! Bought it in 1978 for £400 I think, I was living in York but going to college in South Shields. On one drive up to...
