Chaps. I want to trickle charge our Rupert when he’s not used for a week or so. I’m going to put a small box outside the house with a socket and the charger in it. I then want to mount a plug somewhere on the back of the car, it’ll look like a parking sensor with a bit of luck. Then run the...

Ey up. Been ummin an arrin about a new car. I can’t justify it tbh. Ours only has around 40k and is a cracker. Had it about 3 years and it’s been impeccable. I’d probably have to put £15000 in just to get the same car but two years newer, similar miles etc. 1- Jazz the wheels up. 2- ? 3- ...

Anyone else get loads of punctures? Every week one of the Slk’s or the ML needs a slow puncture repairing. Nothing in the tyres, they just go down. Is this common with Mercedes alloys? As far as I’m aware the lads clean the wheels before refiting the tyres. Doin me head in.

Lovely old Slk fs. Our Rodney has to go due to lack of space with the daughter coming back to live with us for a while. A few brief details. No mot or tax. Runs absolutely spot on. Everything works. Engine light on with a code for some cold air on start thing? showing, I think, been on for ages...

The wireless in our Slk is the original and it’s diabolical imho. Has anyone tried one them circa £100 eBay jobbies?

We’ve had Rodney a while now and thoroughly enjoyed him. He’s getting a bit grumpy and needs a bit of a cuddle every now and then. Anyroads the boss wanted something a bit newer so we got this one, Rupert, and he’s ace. Except the wireless that is absolutely shee ite. 3.5 V6 of lovelyness. I was...

Looking for a nice SL in any colour bar black. 07/08 year ish. Ideally a silver one with black interior and panoramic roof. FMBSH one owner and under 70,000 miles. :)

Chaps, I have a fault on my 2000/1 Y reg Slk 230 showing as the secondary air pump. I've looked and theirs loads of different ones. Can anyone shed any light on it? I take it this is it :) TIA.

Chaps. We have a puddle on the passenger side. Our Maude reckons she saw drips coming from under the glove box. Any pointers before I get home tomorrow and start mooching? Taaa :thumb:

Chaps, our new to us Y reg 2.3 Slk blows warm air for ages, a good half hour then it cools down, no matter what the temp is outside. I get theirs heat in the system at the beginning, but this can’t be doing this? Full on cold and still warm. EC button makes it hotter. Any ideas, not ideal with...

Chaps, the drivers seat belt has become a swine to get out. It sometimes won't extend at all, sometimes we have to do it really slow then it's ok for a couple of days, then back to sticking. Any ideas?

Ey up. Looking for a nice old girl in need of a good home and a bit of pampering. I’ve a daughter who lives abroad and she needs a decent runaround car for when she comes home for visits. I thought one of these would be just the job for her (cough cough for me). Obviously not expecting a 20K...

Been thinking about popping the wheels out a tad, anyone done it, any problems, pros, cons? I'm not talking monster truck stylee, just about 3/4" ish.

Sorry, but I don’t know what it’s called. I’ve seen cars with a nice internal back ground lighting round the doors and dash etc. Like a thin neon wire effect. It looks smart, can we get kits? Can’t we edit thread titles?

How do I update the sat nav. 2015 ML. TIA :thumb:

The car has had to go back to the dealer with an engine management light on, even though it's running perfect. A 2015 ml350 w166? Now, think of a young lad not too well up on gizmos. So, how can I tell what's wrong myself next time a light comes on? What's the crack with them plug in...

Can anyone point me in the right direction for some bling please. I've got to me mark on it :thumb:

Chaps, what's the consensious on black wheels on a grey ML? The missus is asking for them. I'd like to see what you've got :thumb:

If I use the key to lift the tailgate it stops about 6" lower than it should. I can push it up easy enough, but is this common, is their a fix?

Lads. Does anyone know where I can get a motion sensor with built in alarm that will go off when the doors are opened? Remotely operated and a diy jobby. TIA.
