Having a lot of bother starting an m103, it has not run for over two years, and until that point only was out and about occasionally. Reluctant to start when cold, but was very well behaved after the initial struggle. Also equipped with gas, which has always functioned flawlessly. Have I got...

Hi Everyone, I've reached a selling moment, it's time, sadly. I've been out of touch with the market for a few years and wondered if anyone would care to chip-in with a thought on which one of these would be the least interesting to a UK buyer - I'm in Belgium at the moment, but returning soon...

Hello All, I'm still in limp mode with my e270 CDI, 2004. I've changed the maf and cleaned the egr, the eml was on prior and now has disappeared and stayed that way since it was cleared with a diagnostic tool this morning. These faults remain, and I wondered if anyone had any advice on what to...

Hi all I have lately been having fun changing the tensioner On M103 engine from 1990. A friend of mine helped me and after we put Humpty back together again there remained these two threaded bolts and washers. If anyone has recently been involved with removing the radiator and a few pulleys, do...

Hi All, Could the same discs and pads that stop a 240d do the same on a 450sel? Though it's not, mines a 300SD, so not heaps of power. Thanks in advance. Paul

I used my 1995 300 diesel to reverse a trailer up a very steep incline and it struggled, though made it over the line, and promptly stopped. I've just popped a fresh battery on it as it wouldn't so much as wink at me after the ordeal, it stated straight up so I gave it a quick run round the...

Hi All, I'm unable to find any info on this. The coil and leads have been changed and checked on the other side, so is it the brain-box? Thanks very much in advance for any help. Cheers, Paul

Hi All, I've had a good browse, but can't find a solution. My 89 300E has been a sporadic starter for a while, but relay twiddling has usually solved the problem - I don't use the car for long periods. This week I couldn't get the pumps to prime with the one second 'buzz', (no buzz), so...

Hi All, I've just swapped my '91 bonnet on a coupe to a '94 shape from an estate. Two things. Firstly, the estate washer bottle is on the other side and feeds from the other side - the coupe has a complicated water junction. Pipe lengthening soon. Secondly the light lenses are shaped to...

Hi All, I've found a large scrapyard here in Portugal with an owner who seems a reasonable sort. We got chatting and I said I needed things and would pop down with a list next week, (I have three 124's, so need thee wings - obv, as they say). I wondered if I put a larger request to him he's...
