    Sluggish acceleration E250 W212

    Try the gearbox reset thing, lots of tutorials on You tube all entertainingly slightly different.

    W212 E350cdi Gearbox Issue

    Yes I found the steps to do that on Youtube but it still came back a couple of weeks later. Am surprised a car going into limp mode with no ability to switch to Manual or Sport would produce no error on Star? (though have to admit I know nothing about the limits of Star diagnostic equipment)

    W212 E350cdi Gearbox Issue

    Hmmm took it to a local Mercedes specialist who plugged into Star and said no errors were found....took for a test drive and couldn't replicate the issue.

    W212 E350cdi Gearbox Issue

    Yes I have no fault codes on the dash so plugged in my icarsoft mb v2 diag but it found no fault either...probably needs Star at a good indie.

    Don't worry about 230bhp you will still be enjoying 400lbs of torque, if you do want more a simple stage one will give you 290bhp and 470lbs of torque!

    Mercedes E350 Advice

    My 2011 E350 saloon was about £10K 75K mileage 2 owners FSH...beautiful condition, has just flown thru its MOT with no advisories, looks like new inside. I'm south coast and had to go to Liverpool to get it but worth the trip.

    Mercedes E350 Advice

    Sounds like a dog. Walk away. These are not rare cars there are plenty out there, scan the country, its worth taking a day or two out to travel for a car that you may own for several years.

    Pitted windscreen

    If I went to Mercedes here in the UK and asked them to supply and fit a new windscreen to my E class I dread to think what the cost would be. Suspect £1000+ I don't bother calling my insurance company, just find out who there approved supplier is usually Autoglass or National Windscreens et al...

    Pitted windscreen

    Whenever I buy a car one of the first things I do is replace the windscreen. Used to be £50 excess, now often its £75, never been queried. I just say there are multiple chips interfering with my vision especially at night, never a problem. So get it replaced.

    Wheel downsizing E400d AMG Line Night Edition 4Matic

    Yep 19" alloys and potholes don't mix well. You can go down to 17" I don't know your exact car details but this will help, also inside the fuel filler there may be a sticker showing tyre pressure for wheels that fit your car. I went down to 16" square set up on my E350cdi, enjoying the...

    Which car to do anything and everything?

    I do like my current w212 E350cdi and its immaculate inside and out. But a previous car that did everything and ticked all the boxes would have been a 5 door Golf GTi. Understand the love shown here for ML's I had a 420cdi, had an effortless journey from the south coast to the Isle of Skye and...
