    Has anybody else had problems with their wiper blades off a 2003-W203 C class ??? I replaced the blades with genuine Mercedes Aero flat blades a few weeks back. The passenger side never cleared properly leaving a big area un cleared. Took them back to MB who replaced them with new. Same problem...

    Auto dimming wing mirror replacement

    The wing mirrors on my W203 are heated and auto dimming. Just too expensive to replace with the same type. Can I replace these with just heated mirrors? The reason I ask is that on the back of the auto dimming mirrors they have a plug with 3 wires in that connect to the unit, and a separate...

    Has anyone replaced their wing mirror glass with one of the many Ebay numbers out there? I need to replace both on my W203 as one has de-laminated and the other is cold. The adverts seem pretty good value ... which causes me concern. Any comments?

    The head unit in my W203 is the pre 2004 version (audio 30 I think?) single din. Would I be able to fit one of the 'new style post 2004' double din units into the existing hole?

    W203 Alarm fault? not siren??

    Car alarm kept going off lights flashing, funny chirping etc. Disconnected the siren behind the n/s wheel to try and isolate the fault to the siren. All back together .. seemed ok. This lasted a whopping 3 minutes before the hazzard lights were off again thankfully with no noise ... Utterly...

    ESP problem ...still??

    Ok .. I'm £300 lighter after having the Lateral acceleration sensor replaced by my local indie. I was assuming the STAR diagnostics would have pinpointed the fault and so was happy that this would be the end of it. :wallbash: no.. Why did the diagnostics not spot it? Is this the start of an...

    Mis-sold FMBSH car - Any comeback?

    Quite angry with myself really. I recently bought a W203 Estate with all the toys etc advertised with a FULL MERCEDES BENZ service history, 1 owner.

    My W202 C240T is 10 yrs old. A friend recommended I get the transmission fluid changed over and above the usual service. Is there anything else I should look at having done that's not covered by a standard service?

    Wheel / Steering knocking?

    Getting a slight knocking sound when I drive over broken bits of road. Like something is loose. Sounds worse funnily enough in reverse.
