Thanks I will report back once I have the codes

Thank you I have a carsoft scanner. I will scan it and post back with the codes.

Hi did you manage to fix this issue? The 722.6 box in my partners ML270 is playing up. I changed the pilot bush, filter and fluid about 6 months ago. All was well but now it’s stuck in limp mode and sometimes won’t move when in drive.

Hi guys, gearbox is playing up in my partners ML270. About 6 months ago whilst I was driving it, it went into limp mode. Could only get 3rd gear and wouldn’t change. I checked fluid level and it was slightly low. I replaced the pilot bushing, filter, gaskets and put fresh fluid in. Car drove...

Hi guys does anyone know which company supplied the O.E spec track rod ends on these vehicles?

Hi guys can anyone help with the above problem? This light came on a few weeks ago intermittently. I googled it and was told one of the problems could be a failing battery. It was due replacement so ordered new one. It has been fine since but then came on again today. I understand it can be...

Hi guys anyone got one of these spare?

That's strange, I noticed mine the other day was very rusty on my W163. I was gonna take it off and clean it and repaint but after seeing this it might be pointless! I wouldn't like to think how much a dealer would charge.

Such a shame they don't build the bodies to last. That is sort of what I was planning on doing but without the rubber trim. I will give it a go when the weather gets a bit warmer.

Thanks for reply. I have all the stuff to do it except for paint so I suppose it's worth a go. Didn't realise merc used galvanised panels later am surprised they have still managed to rust a bit!

Hi guys rear arches are getting a bit scabby on the ml270. I was thinking of grinding them back and treating them to stop them getting worse. Any thoughts?

Hi guys noticed this tonight that the overflow tank is leaking. Anyone know best place to get them?

Hi guys, great forum. Not long had an ML270. Looking to do a few bits to it, mostly preventative maintenance. Loving it so far. :D

Thanks for that I had not realised there was more than one unit for the ML270.
