    Boot not opening with key

    I've got a W166 ML (2012). The boot used to fully open and close (and lock and unlock) when using the botton on the boot door or when using the button on the keyfob. (I never use the button on the drivers door for some reason!?) Once, someone was at the boot and pressed the button on the boot...

    2012 ml w166 full suspension bushes replacement

    I have a 2012 w166 which is due a service in the coming weeks. I’ve not been happy with the handling so will be asking for for the garage to investigate. It’s done c140k miles so no doubt the suspension bushes could do with being replaced. It’s got air suspension in the past past 2-3-4 years...

    Ended up with Wayne Gates supplying the parts as they managed to find the originals Merc versions for less. It's completely transformed the car. Great service by them as always. Thanks again to all the contributors in this thread.

    I've just realised, I could have worded my initial post better. I've been quoted £1100 for a pair of rear shocks.

    2012 ML 350 - need new rear shocks

    Hi all, I need some urgent input. My 2012 ML went in for a service at Wayne Gates this morning and they advised my rear shocks need replacing. (It also has the air suspension in case that matters?) What are my options? The OEM shocks are circa £1100 in parts alone. Is there an aftermarket...

    Which adblue

    Hmm, just wondering... Is this one of those items that should be topped up during a service (Regardless of which type of service it is.) My car was serviced in Dec, roughly 10k miles ago by a respected indy. I did ask them at the time if they topped up the adb but they didn't respond.

    Roughly 20k miles per year

    Which adblue

    I'd rather buy as much as I need rather than worry about shelf life. Any ideas how much I would need for a 2012 ml 350?

    Which adblue

    Just wondering if there are qualified of adblue or if they are all the same? Can it just be topped up or is there more to it than that? Thanks in advance.

    Which tyre for w166 - looking for something comfortable

    Thanks for feedback everyone. Ended up buying used 19" wheels from ebay with roughly 5mm tread remaining. Will be back in the mark when these tyres need replacing.

    Which tyre for w166 - looking for something comfortable

    The other option would be to buy used - something like this 19" Genuine Mercedes ML Alloy Wheels & Tyres | eBay Would these fit? Would be cheaper to buy these now and change the tyres when needed rather then change the tyres on my current wheels and then buy wheels and tyres again later.

    Which tyre for w166 - looking for something comfortable

    I need to replace 2 rear tyres on my 2012 ML (W166). Fronts will be changed at a later date, most likely next year as there is still plenty of life in them. Currently I've got Continental Sport Contact 2 - 265 40 21 all around. I do about 20-25k miles each year. At least 90% of those are on the...

    W166 wheel size

    Some nice wheels on there. The 19s are a little more than I can afford. Other than ebay, is there anywhere else that I could search for used/refurbished wheels?
