I had been getting more and more regens, probably every 100miles or so until the engine light eventually came on. Checked the codes and had the following: Soot level too high Ash level too high 15FC00 B28/8 dpf differential pressure outside permissable range. After resetting the error, the...

Trying to figure what bosch aerotwin blades to fit, there seems to be 3 different versions available but no information on which is correct. Even the bosch site list all of them. A826S, A939S, then some say single AP24U are the newer version ?

The w203 C220 has developed a squeak from the front of the engine on startup. Possible pulley I guess, not had a chance to looke yet. Are INA bearings a good choice if I need a replacement ?

Another day, another fault. Shows SRS message on the dash and the icarsoft shows component R12/6 left rear ETR ignition squib has short circuit to ground. I can erase the code but it comes back within a few miles of driving. Any ideas or do I need more info from Star ?

14F400 signal from oxygen sensor is shifted towards rich 14D600 the signal line of the oxygen sensor and the electrical heater circuit have a short to each other Oxygen sensor 1 Cylinder bank 1 I have the engine light on and a couple of codes in history - never current, always history. If I...

What life are you getting out of the rears ? Mine are Bridgstone Turanza, put them on as thought they might last longer than the 8k I got out of the previous Goodyears. I am on 11k of mostly easy motorway miles at 60mph, average 49mpg for the last 14k and they are almost shot already.. Friend...

W204 C350 The hold function, not the auto hold on a hill, but when you press the pedal again seems to have disappeared altogether? I noticed it right after the car was in for a brake fluid change although to be honest I can't be 100% sure it hadn't already failed and I do realize. My ECO mode...

As above, anyone know this for the drilled sports pack discs. I changed the pads at 70k, hardly any lip at all at the time, now done 110k and the pads still look like new..

The engine only gets to 60C on a cold morning and the heater never really warms up, this is after a 20 mile run, including 8 miles on the motorway. I guess the first thing to look at is the original thermostat which is 190k miles old. What is the cost of a genuine from Mercedes and is this...

I know some have added an LED that activates when the rear screen or mirror heater are on as a warning that a regen is in progress but by then it is a tad late. Also on my car at least, it's obvious when it is in regen mode. Mine blew it's oil seals a while back after getting stuck in a...

What the time / cost to replace a front speed sensor ?

One of the linkage bars has come off - guess there was a bearing in there... Hopefully it has just blown a fuse and not the motor - will have a look tomoz. Anyone know the Merc cost, can't find anything on eBay..

When the tuner says they can reload you data if it is overwritten by the dealer - don't believe them, they can't - so DO NOT have it over written by Mercedes ! I paid £400 for a remap, it ran really well for a few years. It was later updated by an indy who told me it would most likely cure my...

It seems the record facility on the iCarsoft is very difficult to review. Example, I wanted to record all wheel rpm sensors while driving to review later and see if one of them had odd readings. However, it looks like all it does is write a new doc file with the 4 sensor values each time. You...

I'll mention it all as something might be related to the latest fault ? All my issues started after an ecu firmware upgrade during a routine service. It overheated while stuck on a regen and blew the oil cooler seals. New seals, 1x complete intake manifold as oiled up and flaps not moving...

I mentioned this on another related post but thought I would start a separate thread. As the title states, only if I put my foot down and have the sunroof open can I smell the fumes. I have noticed what I assume is exhaust exiting around the turbo, difficult to see in the pic but alot of black...

Couple of questions, the car has been used just 2 or 3 runs in the last couple of months as no work, I also trickle charged it about 4 weeks ago. Went to start it yesterday to collect some essential eggs from a friend and it was dead. Had to use my bike instead - last used in November and it...

Igniton on - Orange eco dash light is on Start engine - 5 secs later it turns off, as does the light on the eco button which then has no function either. It's as if the car has no eco function at all. This happens about 99% of the time. It started a couple of years ago but has steadily...

What is the size required, I have read 74mm, 74.5mm, 76mm, at least they all state 14 flutes. I measured the one on the car although there is not a lot of room without taking it off - looks like 74.5 - ish ! Thanks

Just had my nav updated and the first two streets I tried didn't show - unless I'm doing something wrong ? Can someone test them on v10 or v11 for me. This was on a w204 c class South Road, Weston super mare Queens Road, Weston super mare Thanks !
