Hi all forumers, Wanted to ask if my car an E250 C207 2012 has a Overvoltage protection relay and if yes can someone let me know where its located. The local dealer does not seem to know what I'm talking about. Tq all Mark

Thanks again Dieselman

Hi, I am finalising my purchase , hope all goes well. I read some horror stories about the quality of W210's that were manufactured in South Africa. After reading Honest John's site, I am thinking twice. Is there anyway that my VIN can reveal the car's manufacturing plant? Thanks to Dieselman...

Ok noted on the suspension noise. The gear changes are smooth and the engine does gain power as the revs increase. I have not checked the underneath yet, but I will see it on my next off day. Cannot say about the fluid changes as it was kept in storage for sale, but he promised a full service...
