Hi, as the title says, I have a C63 rattle when I first crank the engine in the morning, it goes away almost instantaneously and it is worse when the oil level was lower than at the full mark and also worse when I had OW40 oil.... These things make me believe its down to oil pressure perhaps not...

Hi all....Have a leak on SWMBO C220 CDI Coupe, 2004 plate and its driving me mad! When filled to the correct oil level the car dumps oil from somewhere at the rear of the engine, it gets onto the exhaust manifold and burns causing an awful smell in the car and obviously if you take the revs up...

I am selling my genuine 17" AMG III alloy wheels that came from factory attached to my 2005 C Class. All wheels have some kerb marks from parking scuffs and one front wheel has some scuffs on the spokes from parking too. The tyres have approx 60% life left but one front one could do with...

I have a lazy folding mirror on my passenger side! Worse when cold, it takes longer to move and rarely goes all the way in or out on its own when the door is opened or the car is locked, i then have to push the button to make it finish moving. Does anyone know if this is due to needing greasing...

I am thinking of cleaning out my fuel system with a dose of cleaner. Question is.....Which brand is best and what is the strongest mix i can use??

Now yesterday i...

My other half has a C220 CDI Coupe 2006 Model with paddle shift change for gears. When driving it in normal 'S' mode in auto it sometimes changes itself into 'M' mode and requires gear change manually. It seems like its doing this by itself with no selection of 'M' using the button.........Or...
