Hi Olivier, thanks for the reply. I did have the STAR diagnostics connected up, that's how I found out that there was a short circuit and that the brake position switch was operating correctly. Alas, there is no need for any further action.... the fault has miraculously cleared! :bannana...

Hi, It's been a while since I posted on here, I've been sans Mercedes for a few years until a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, my return to the marque is already tainted somewhat! I have a '00 W203 C220CDi, on which I recently replaced the rear SAM after it was knackered by an un-knowing...

Hi all, Its been a while since I've posted on here, but I'm hoping the wealth of knowledge will be able to help out :) A friend has asked me if I knew of anything specific to look out for when buying a used ML280, '07 reg. He doesn't have a particular one in mind, he and his wife just like...

Hi people, I've had a search through other posts but can't seem to find anyone having the same problem as my old man is. His 2002 W203 220 CDI seems to start fine most of the time, but occasionally and when he needs it most (as is always the case :rolleyes: ) it just will not start. The car...

Now SOLD.:)

OK, price is now £800 or nearest offer. Also have a set of genuine AMG Style IIs that will be refurbed soon to as new (with polished lips). 7.5 x 17" fronts and 8.5 x 17" rears. Will do a kit and wheels package for £1200, possibly delivered, I'll need to check shipping costs for the wheels.

BUMP! OK, as some may have seen in the AMG thread (I jacked it a bit!) the kit is still for sale. I'm looking for offers below £1000, but not too much below! And if the offer is decent and its going to go to a good home (would hate to see this going on a shed of a car, ill-fitted and badly...

No, the jacking points are hidden by the skirts.:crazy: But, I thought about this before I bought the kit and got around this problem by purchasing a small bottle jack from my local motor factors, it was around £10-£15 and had 1.5 tonne SWL. It would have easily fit under the skirts and lifted...

If anyone's interested I've still got a Wald kit for sale, front and rear bumpers and side skirts. A forum member has contacted me with interest and should have an answer for me by Sunday, but looking at this thread he may have other plans. Here's the ad...

Sorry for threadjacking but, taumaan I've tried to PM you but you can't/won't receive it. Is your inbox full or are you going undercover? Roj

Took some pics of my 1.8's big brother. I bought the car on 30th December, drove it back from Essex to Glasgow in time for the legendary Scottish Hogmanay festivities! Have to say it was a rather enjoyable 9 hour drive:D 1989, totally standard, full leather, aircon, heated seats plus the...

Nah, its easier just to buy my W202 wald kit!!;)

Well, I didn't go and look at the C280, I found a good 190E 2.5-16V and bought that instead! I'll post pics when there's better light outside.

I've currently got a custom stainless cat-back system on my 190E 1.8. It was made/fitted by a company local to me called Free-Flow. I was impressed by the quality of their work(though not the style!) that I'd seen on some crazy 6-exhausted and triangular and square piped Saxos and Corsas...

Yeah, you seem to preffer the late '90s/early '00s stuff too! I've been mostly going to see live bands recently- kasabian, the fratellis, the view, primal scream etc but this has really got me in the mood for some good dancey music again! When I found out Agnelli & Nelson were DJing on...

Another superb one! What about Chicane, Offshore? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkbSm6Wa9CQ

Thanks, hadn't heard that tune for ages! Really looking forward to New Years Eve at the arches in glasgow now!

Well, I tried to sell this bodykit about 18months or so ago, possibly longer. I ended up agreeing to sell it to a friend of a friend and, to cut a long story short, he never paid up after saying for months he'd "get the money". So, its been sat in my shed for some time now, the spiders being...

Thanks, I'll check the tensioner out, didn't know about that one! I might 'phone my local stealership, get them to check the car perhaps, on the rust issue, see if they would pursue a claim as the car is a '99 model. Thanks for the advice:)

Hi, not posted for ages, had a generally busy life recently and motoring took an unfortunate back seat, so to speak. So, now that I'm back on track I'm thinking about a getting C280 Sport W202. My 190 is still going strong, but I'm getting a bit bored of it and the 1.8 engine is seriously...
