Well it had to happen sometime. The right rear spring snapped this morning with the expensive sounding twang. Was the last original spring left on the car as the other 3 have been replaced at some point since ive owned it. I have seen a pair of Klien springs on fleabay for about £70 but ive...

Anybody know what the little red light in the centre of the instrument cluster (just to the right of the esp light) that only comes on when the ignition is at stage 2? Looks kind of like a silhouette of an overtaking car like what you see on road signs. Any ideas?

As some of you may be aware there is a group remap being scheduled for 2 April down in Banbury by Matty.13 but is quite a distance for some of us that are based further North and in Scotland. From what I can see from that thread there is a few people interested in a remap session based further...

My windscreen cracked yesterday morning right where there is a really bad chip. The chip had been repaired previously but was a really bad repair. I am getting it replaced under insurance company paying a £70 excess. They coordinate their replacements with National Windscreens and when the guy...

When using the heater on auto setting and using it to warm up the car it seems to be emitting a high pitched whistle kind of like an old kettle boiling on the hob. Its quite irritating given the frequency of the whistle as it goes right through you. Does anybody have any ideas as to what this...

Hey all, Im going to be installing my 100w fusion sub in the back of my 203 coupe this weekend but have been reading up about installation for the last week. The sub was originally fitted in my old rover 25 but took it out before i sold the car obviously. So the sub has the full wiring kit...

Had to do a round trip from Dundee->Glasgow->Edinburgh and then back to Dundee the other day and managed a collossal 45mpg! Never managed to get it that high before and was just wondering if anybody else manages to get this normally. It was a Friday and leaving Edinburgh at around 2pm i did get...

Where do i find the pipe for topping up my gearbox oil. It is running low as there is a leak but the next available slot at my garage is not until thursday and i need to use my car so i was going to top up the oil until then. Can i pour some new oil in via a filler pipe under the bonnet similar...

My rear left corner parking sensor has a little bit of the clear coating that has worn off a little bit and has been like that for a wee while. Now yesterday when i had the car in neutral in the middle of the local shop carpark with nothing around me the rear sensor light bar in the roof of the...

What are the best cutting and polishing pads to use when applying megs #80 and #83 for removal of heavy scratches etc. I have a bmw that has a bonnet that has been put through automatic car washes and washed with stiff brushes at jet washes etc. Quite bad swirls etc that im hoping to remove...

Ive been looking on ebay etc for a non-slip boot mat for my sportcoupe but there only seems to be ones for the c class saloons and the estates. Does anybody know where you can get them apart from a dealers or if they even exist? Im not really wanting to get the universal mat that you can cut...

This morning as i got to the bottom of the road from my house and pulled out of the junction i had a slightly quietish bang from the rear left of the car like somebody knocking their knuckles off a metal panel. The whole section of the junction is all bumpy with tiny potholes all over the place...

Im looking to possibly replendish my supply of megs gold class liquid wax but looking on various forums etc the CG XXX Hardcore wax seems to be pretty hot stuff for a great price. My only query with getting a paste as opposed to a liquid is that it cant be applied by a DA but can it be buffed...

What are peoples opinions on the best shampoo out there at the moment? I use the gold class stuff from megs but its a tad on the pricey side (as is most of their stuff anyway). Its still produces amazing suds and is handy for adding a drop or 2 to the snowfoam mix...did i mention it smells...

As the title suggests i have managed to push the drivers side window switch module into the door. It has not fallen all the way down through the door or anything and i can still reach it with my fingers to operate the windows and lift it back to the hole but i cant get it back out so that it...

This is just a theoretical question (got into work a bit early and a bit bored lol) but would it be possible to fit the turbine alloys from a mclaren slr onto a c class? Just trying to imagine how stupid or amazing they would look if fitted to my sportcoupe lol. Would it ever work without...

Hey all, Im looking at possibly getting a CLK convertible as my next car. Probably prefer the late 2003 onwards models (the ones with the big badge on the front of the grill as apposed to the s class look of chrome grill with star on bonnet). Id be coming from a 2004 c class coupe so would...

I have managed to come across an indie MB specialist in Dundee and thought i would stick it on here and let everyone know if they are around this area. I noticed that there was few posts on here asking whether there was any around Tayside/Dundee etc and the general reply was that the closest...
