Hi guys. I have a 2010 W204 C250 CGI and I'm having issues with the air conditioning / heating. The A/C failed on me in the summer. I remember it being lacklustre - but it worked OK. All of a sudden it just failed on a hot day. I had it pressure tested and re-gassed. Roll on the cooler weeks...

Hi all. my cousin has gone away for a 6 months, and I am looking after his car for him. The tax has now expired, and even though It is parked in my 'private estate', apparently I now have to tax it. he is giving me money for the tax, but can I use the Merc's insurance which covers me for any...

Hey all. I bought my C200 Auto just before Christmas. It is one of those cars that I always wanted (C230K) but budget and time were against me at the time. Anyway, after buying it from a dealer in Surrey after posting on here, I have decided to go back to Toyota. The car is great, but my...

Hello all. What an epic morning. I was driving to work, and after a mile of so I wondered why my heater was still blowing cold. I quickly glanced at my temp gauge and it was 3/4 so I stopped, and let it cool down just before I hit the M25. I waited about half hour, started, and drove back to...

I was reading the BBC website, and read the news about the fuel prices. Now, I am no politician so I just wrote to them from the heart. Naturally, with the BBC being the dithering kind that they are, i doubt they will publish it, but this is what I had to say. "I am very unhappy, and I think...

Hello all. Not sure about you guys, but I really hate the misuse of lights. My gripes are as follows. 1. Rain / snow + silver (or similar colour car) and no lights, so not visible, and I cannot judge their speed. 2. Fog lights when it's not foggy, and sometimes NO CLUE that the fog lights...
