    The Master Locksmith.

    I only ever had one key for my car and last week it failed. When I opened it it was a detached coil that was the problem. Mercedes wanted £280 for a new one which I was prepared to spend...but they needed the car for identity purposes...on a low loader. This could have doubled the cost. So, I...

    ABS/power steering.

    Twice now, the ABS warning light has come on. Once last night in very wet weather, and again this morning in very wet weather. When I started out this morning the ABS light did not come on until a few minutes into my journey, and several very deep puddles and small floods. At the same time...

    Instrument cluster

    My instrument cluster has had a complete failure. Can I replace the one I have with any other one...or, must the part numbers match? The problem I have is the label with the part number on has been removed. Where is the car's mileage stored?

    Additional screen.

    So (as many people seem to say nowadays when starting a sentence), I want to add an additional screen to my HU so that the sat nav can be placed in a position where it can actually be of use when driving the car. I have a Chinese unit in place of the original COMAND unit which works well. Does...
