    W124 external temp display + loom

    Hi all, As I have now sold my W124 coupe, I am selling the last of my parts. All I have now left is the external temp LCD display plus loom. I think I remember these being quite hard to come by so I thought i'd offer it up on site before putting on ebay. If anyone is interested then ping me an...

    W124 e220 Coupe - Middle Silencer Required

    Hi all, Failed MOT last week due to major leak of exhaust gases from the middle silencer, way beyond attempting a patch up repair. Trying to find a replacement part though is proving a bit difficult. ECP have one listed at £214.99 but is out of stock. The only ones I can find are the group of...

    M111.960 - blink Code 21 on Pin 8

    Hi All, Have now managed to extract codes with constructed code reader.... All codes stay cleared now except for Code 21 on Pin 8. I cannot, however, find any definitive list of codes for the e220 with the M111.960 engine though. The nearest I can get is the CS1000 scanner manual which...

    CLK430 W208 Air Intake Hose Split

    Hi All, Yesterday I tried removing the engine cover for the first time on the CLK and I managed to split the air intake hoses, not realising they were attached. I have duct taped them together but was wondering if it was worth finding replacements or would I be fine to leave as is ? Thanks

    W208 CLK430 - Intermittent wiring

    Hi all, Have an intermittent wiring connection issue at the moment in the CLK. On some occasions on startup I have power to stereo. Other times I do not. When there is no power to stereo, I also lose power to the heated seats and I also had an airbag light stay on for a short while...

    W208 Climate Control Removal Tools

    Hi All, Does anyone know a quality provider of the little tools you need to remove the climate control. I've already purchased some off ebay and I know they were cheap, but they are too thick and barely go through the width of the outer plastic. There certainly don't get anywhere near as...

    Hi all, I've got a few issues creeping up on me now with the coupe........ It passed the MOT as usual first time, however, there is a slight leak in the back of the exhaust. There is also a missing throttle return spring, which resulted in a hairy moment in the office car park last week...

    W124 Coupe - Drivers LockBarrel

    Hi All, A couple of weeks ago I went to lock my car up and the key decided it was just going to turn round freely. I have since been locking the car using the passenger door lock. I managed the time today to strip the door down and investigate and discovered the end of the barrel piece...

    Any early CLS owners out there ?

    Hi all, I am having an internal debate whether to part with the W124 coupe, not because I have fallen out of love with it, but as i've had her a good 7/8 years now, more for a change. I was looking at E39 540i's as I do very little mileage these days and could afford the fuel. However...

    W124 e220 - Fuel Smell

    Hi All, I have the e220 W124 coupe with the M111 engine. The other day I noticed a very strong petrol smell in the cabin whenever I accelerated hard. I initially put it down to an outside smell, however, noticed over the next couple of journeys that wherever I was, as soon as I got in the...

    W124 - Chrome strip from side trim

    The piece of chrome strip that sits in the plastic immediately behind the front drivers door, in front of the rear arch came loose at one end. One visit to the carwash just now and it has bent right out. Does anyone have one of these spare in a piece of trim unused ? If it came with some...

    W124 Coupe - New wishbone arm

    Hi all, MOT failed today unfortunately due to ball joint on suspension. Garage have quoted me £270 to fit a completely new suspension arm which I believe is around £170 for the part, £100 for the labour. The guy at the garage (who I have always found trustworthy in the past) explained...

    W124 - Fuse

    Hi all, Whilst on the road today enjoying the heated seats I installed last year, I was looking for a place to rest my vaporiser (electronic cigarette thing that has helped me quit smoking for 6 months so far). I decided to briefly rest it in the ashtray where the lighter normally sits (mine...

    Silverstone F1 - Saturday Qualifying

    Hi all, I waited until the results of the testgate saga to ensure Lewis would be driving, and now have tickets to Saturday's qualifying day at Silverstone. I couldn't afford the weekend tickets, but needed to make sure I heard the V8's while I could. Having never been there previously...

    Frozen locks and condensation

    Hi all, Has anyone had an experience with those de-humidifier pads you place on your dash to prevent excess condensation ? I have a bit of a problem with it at the moment as I have a slight leak down into the cabin and my mats get damp. Do they really work ? The other thing was my drivers...
