Just returned from an uneventful trip to France's deep south, which would not have happened but for an exceptional 11th hour pit stop at P.C.S. beforehand! The car just wasn't braking well at all and a quick examination revealed that the right hand rear caliper had seized leaving most of the...

I hope no-one will mind if I share this.... Just returned from P.C.S. on a beautiful sunny day with my music playing gently and the recently fitted remanufactured engine humming along. It doesn't get much better than this I was thinking. After the initial stress of discovery of a major problem...

A while back I bought a pretty good E320 CDI 2002 and loved it. The car now has 108,000M on the clock. A knock from the engine started recently and I think suddenly, (I wasn't driving it at the time and SWMBO probably didn't hear it at first over the industrial metal music :-) So maybe I could...

Here's hoping that someone knows and can help..... In my 2002 W210 E320CDi there's a phone cradle fitted just left of the main console. I call it "the phone on a stick." The phone holder etc. looks to be a proper Mercedes part. Tried enquiring of the previous owner which phone he had fitted...

Some good info for fans or otherwise of the congestion charge etc. Dispatches CH4 Now.

It's a real pleasure for me to give credit when it's due and Oliver at P.C.S. certainly deserves it judging by my recent experience. A previously identified suspension problem was confirmed by examination and fixed with his no-nonsense approach. Time was somehow found to change the ATF as well...

In the information from the Russian VIN site there's an item labelled "Plant". I assume that this might refer to the manufacturing site for the vehicle? Has anyone got the codes, or can reveal where "Plant 61" is?

Just driving along a quiet 30 mph stretch of road I put the speed limiter on approx 28 mph, traffic then got too busy so I cancelled it. Almost immediately I got warnings of ABS, BAS, ESP all malfunctioning with "Visit Workshop" messages displayed. Gulp!! :eek: I later turned off the engine...
