Fitted one of these yesterday as original was broken at hinge but all was working perfect electrically. I tested new one and it was adjusting no problem up down, left right. Customer called this morning to say when you adjust left it goes all the way out and wont stop in the position you want...

Found a small pool of gearbox oil under car - had a look and appears to be coming from fitting where electrical connections enter box. There is a nylon fitting in box which you twist and this ejects the cable connector which has an O-ring on it. Cant determine if leak is between nylon ring and...

Have had a problem with movement in rear of car most notable when changing lanes - you get this sideways wobble. Had a good look today and the rear subframe front end bushes are soft and easily move up and down with slight leverage. Could this be the cause of the problem. Couldn't see anything...

When changing lanes in the above car there is a shifting feeling at the back - no clunking or unusual sounds but a definite sideways wobble that goes once car back on straight line. Drives perfect otherwise. No problem evident turning corners. Doesnt appear to be speed related either. Any ideas...

Car was driving pefectly well, was parked up for about 6 hours, when I returned to it the key fob opened all doors, but when inserted in ignition, it would not register, could not turn key so could not release steering lock or attempt to start car. Had to get towed. What is likely to be fault -...

Had a problem that ESP, BAS,ABS lights came on and car was stuck in one gear. When I stopped I put into PARK but then I could not engage gear except using the pencil to manually do it. Turned engine off and it would not start again - would not even turn engine over. Was told by a Merc specialist...

CD player not working - doesnt recognise magazine (6 CD) holder which wont eject either. Stripped unit and freed the casette. It is getting power etc but still not working.

2001, petrol, w210, 105,000 kilometers Car was serviced at 95K with new plugs, oil, filters, throttle body cleaned etc. It is driving perfectly but every now and then it is slow to start. It does not take several turns of the key but it does turn over for an extra long time before actually...

Hi 2001 E200K W210 Middle of last week I got a message on display about battery and alternator problem and car was slow to start but fine after that. I decided this afternoon to clean battery terminals as voltages were all good. I used a memory saver via cigarette lighter when I disconnected...

When I fill the car with petrol it still never results in the needle on gauge being at the max level. Any ideas what could be wrong. Is it likely that the float switch is faulty/loose - is it easily accessible? Any help much appreciated? Thanks MFK

ABS and BAS light on E200K 2001, w210 This morning the above two lights came on and logged a malfunction. They have now cleared and when I restarted the car they did not come on. Last night i was going through the fuses as my interior light linked to the front doors had stopped working. Just...

When I wash the car and then open boot lid water flows out of the rear of the fog lights or boot lock and into the boot. Any idea where this could be getting in. I have removed the inside trim and used a torch to see if I could see gaps but nothing obvious. It is like it is trapped in there...

I have the above car and last week spotted another Merc with chrome wheel arches. They looked good from a distance. Just wondering what peoples view of them are? Dont want to cheapen the look of the car in any way. Also seen on E bay some chrome wing mirrors. My car (Singapore import) has...

Just wondering if the E200K has two rear fogs or just one. My one only has the driver side working but the passenger side has a bulb holder and bulb in it. I changed bulb etc but no joy. I noticed the electrical connector on drivers side has three wires but passenger side only has two. I think...

This car (95k kilometers) has been in garage on at least 10 occasions due to engine light coming on. Car is driving poorly lacking power in low gears, engine tends to stall when you go to accelerate and then surges forward. Over the past few months it has had a "Hella" MAF fitted, new throttle...

W210 engine oil sump bung (13mm bolt) has been butchered :crazy: :mad: . It is really soft - cannot get a move on it as it is badly rounded and seems very tight - managed to get a socket tapped on it with a hammer but still gave way. Tried shocking it but was nervous as it looks like an...

Car: E200K 2001 W210 The range on the key fob is very poor. I have to hold it right up to door and even at that it can be slow to open or close. Batteries have been replaced but no difference. I only have one fob:( so cant try another to see if it is any different Is it possible to increase...

I have an E200 2001 - are these front low down lights driving lights or fog lights. I assume it is to do with what wattage bulb is in them. I think they are 55W Cheers MFK
