Does anyone know if reasonably priced headlamp lenses are available. Mine have gone very cloudy, on one side only. Or is it possible to buff them with a decent power polisher, to remove what I suppose is an oxidised layer ?

Will my 2005 E320 CDi W211 have a dpf ?

2005 E320 CDi W211. Card stood all last week, frequently covered in snow. Now the big thaw is here, I took her out today. Problem with front parking sensor(s). As I slow down, approaching a standstill, front sensor alarm comes on, with constant tone. All red lights illuminate. After...

A message popped up in the instrument panel of my 2005 E320 W211, saying something to the effect, “Front LH parking light failure”, or words to that effect. Is this something relatively easy to correct, by a reasonably competent DIYer ? How is access gained to remove and replace the faulty...

Car is a 2005 E320 CDi, W211. Today, the automatic headlights came on when the car was started, despite bright sunlight. They have remained on all day. Ambient light has been excellent all day, but it’s been very cold. Also, the Command screen has been in dimmed, (night-time) mode...

Can anyone advise what the following fault code really means ............ “2510 Boost Pressure Actuator PCR component defective” ........... and is it significant ? The fault refers to a 2005 E320 Cdi which has occasional power delivery problems and sometimes goes into limp mode ...... this...

My 2005 W211 E320 CDi has intermittent performance problems, which I now think might be due to sticking or faulty “swirl flaps”. Are these evil devices essential ? What is the down-side of removing or locking them ?

I recently acquired a 2005 E320 CD which is fitted with the Command system and now that BST has ended I need to alter the clock. How on earth is this done ? The manual just confuses me !

Does anyone have any experience involving troublesome waste gate actuator problems ?

2005 E320 W211. Today, for the first time, the car refused to do anything when I attempted to start it. Lots of key twiddling followed, for possibly five minutes. Then, as suddenly as it had stopped responding, it decided to react and the engine started. My journey was short, possibly...

2005 E320 W211 with Comand system. From time to time, on the map/nav display, there's a seemingly endless line of little car symbols shown on one side or other of the road I'm travelling. Looks rather like a zip fastener. Does anyone have any idea what this means ? There are other...

Recently acquired 2005 E320 W211 ...... here's a head-scratcher for you. In slow-moving traffic today. Late afternoon, drizzling and generally murky. Lights set to "Auto". A minute or two later, the headlights came on. After a time, windscreen wipers were also switched on, to...

I recently acquired a 2005 E320 W211, equipped with the Command system and am having some sat nav problems. A new DVD (2016 edition) was installed by the previous owner, in autumn 2016. 1. From time to time I get no map display, other than a message to say it can't read the DVD...

I recently acquired a 2005 E320 w211 which is generally in great condition. However, the passenger side headlamp lenses look awfully dull, compared with those on the driver's side. It looks as if perhaps those on the driver's side have been fairly recently replaced. It has gas discharge...

On the map and nav displays on my E320 COMMAND system, there are lots of little symbols that I don't understand. Each is shown as a Red Cross on a white circle and there are lots of them. Does anyone know what they mean and how I can delete them ?

I have a 2005 E320 W211 diesel, and the engine will frequently limit itself to 3,000 rpm. After stopping, switching off for 20 seconds, then starting up again, the fault clears itself initially ........... but usually recurs after a few miles. Even when not rev-lmited, the engine is low on...

I have a 2005 W211 E320 with 135,000 on the clock. It has been running faultlessly but, after filling the tank to full, (from about one third full), the engine misfires, especially when pressure is applied to the throttle pedal, it has a lack of power and emits black smoke when revved while...

Where is the best place to buy decent quality wiper blades for a 2005 E320 ?

Took my 2005 e320 to have the small battery replaced (the one under the bonnet). During the journey to the garage, the Command SatNav was working perfectly. After fitting the new battery, the SatNav refuses to work, saying it cannot read the DVD. Any ideas anyone ?
