Thanks. This will be helpful. Unfortunately it doesn't show what blades are required (standard, mini, etc) It doesn't have mot. Haven't driven it since 2019 and it's left in the car park of my previous address. They are offering around £500. The govt will give me £2000. Hmm I might try this...

Hi, So I have a w204 that I want to scrap under the current ULEZ scheme in London (2k for any car with mot). Long story short, I soldered a thicker neutral cable onto one of the rear lights (due to a common fault) but didn't use an insulated cable. (I was going to wrap insulation tape around...

I thought it was a heat sensor.

Sorted filter/sensor with m5x15 screws. Cant see a way to delete this

Try turning engine off and back on after clearing codes.

Hi. Just changed the fuel filter on w204 2010 pre facelift. Seemed easy enough but when I start the engine, the (removable) sensor is is pushed out of the filter and diesel sprays everywhere. It's as if I'm not screwing it in properly but I've tried tightening the screws to the point that I've...

Thanks for reply. Just so I'm clear, are you saying that Wright Tec are general specialists or were you referring to the mechanics I'd been using?

I'm based south east london. I saw some good reviews about the Wright but the last one I read said they had a horrible experience and the car is worse so it kinda put me off. I'll give them a try though, thanks.

Short version as I couldn't edit: Indys want to investigate. Even after Xentry scan they dont know what's wrong. Find a better indy? Go to Dealership? Forget the headache and get rid of car?

Background: Had car (w204 c220 didn't 2010) serviced by ClickMechanic. The mechanic told me he was ex-Mercedes and he is local so I've been using him for work but he doesnt have Star/Xentry. EML came on, took it to an Indy with Xentry. Faults on dpf, teach-in cylinder 2, quantity control valve...

Hi, So I've had various problems with my w204 c class which I've posted about, started with a blocked dpf. Long story short; I've replaced some parts and sensors, and recently had the engine taken apart and cleaned as is was gummed up with carbon. After this, Car was driving well, until...

Thanks :( I read somewhere that after battery going dead, sometimes it causes electrical problems that require Star to reset. I was hopin it might just be that.

Never been changed from what I can tell. The car is 8 years old and I've had it for 3. Not sure if I should make a new thread for this but the car is working now, drives fine, although the eml is on and I have a new code that is always present (even after clearing the EML and codes, it shows up...

Update: battery charged, car working, athough engine management light is back on. Had a full service including all filters and transmission fluid just recently. Before that I was getting different codes all the time. Since then I get one of 3, usually when I put my foot down with below half...

It could be the MAF. When I put my foot down, if I have less than half a tank, I often get the management light come on. I Get one of 3 codes come up usually (don't have then to hand right now). Obe of the codes say the problem is with one of the cylinders but I had them checked on star (at a...

Since original post I realised I didn't connect the battery charger properly (should have read the instructions), so it was telling me the battery was full but it hadn't actually checked. It's charging now so I'll try it in the car tomorrow and take it from there. Will update tomorrow, thanks...

Had the dpf cleaned recently as it blocked. I still have a fault with the car, which doesn't seem to occur if I have at least half a tank of petrol but until I get the money together to find the fault and repair it, I scan it regularly to keep an eye on the dpf and make sure it is still...

Hi people. So I did a diagnostics scan using ICARSOFT mb2 on Friday night but forgot to disconnect it when I was done. Saturday evening, the car was completely dead. Couldn't open the door with the fob, couldn't turn on the lights or radio, nothing. So today I bought a socket set and battery...

As an update to this, after getting the service the mechanic found some faults. The knocking sound was resolved by replacing the right hand side drop link. I'm still having and issue but nothing to do with the dpf so far.

How did you sort it?
