    Dechroming - are they serious?

    I decided having seen a very nice dechromed white ML to look into dechroming mine and checked around the web had an idea of the cost for wrapping the front and rear lips/badges front, side and rear and roof rails as to what the cost might be assuming around £3-400 I just received a quote from a...

    Class Cars in Sandwich Kent - big praise!

    Just thought I should give real credit to George at Class Cars for fixing an issue that the main dealer (who also sold me my Ml63) couldn't find, fix and told me was just a 'characteristic' of the model!!!! Since buying in March the car has had a strange vibration through the seats and...

    Ml63 - who has one?

    Got me thinking today as not seen a single one around since getting my 2015 in March. In my experience whenever I have bought a new car I seem to see loads of the same model about but even though I do get around a bit (M25 etc) I haven't seen a single Ml63 in 3 months, are they really that...

    Sunroof blind dirty, how to clean?

    I hadn't pulled the blinds on my Pano sunroof over on my W166 but when I did this week they are quite dirty on the ‘upside’ and I am scratching my head on how to clean them so thought I would ask if anyone else has had this issue and how they cleaned the blinds? Thanks in advance

    Painting calipers?

    Decided my ML63 needs red calipers to better show them within the black wheels and have had two ‘versions’ of how this can be done from a couple of companies I’ve contacted Some offer a paint on the wheel option and then add the AMG logos others powder coat with everything removed obviously at...

    New ML63 couple of questions please

    Just picked up my ‘new’ ML63 from the dealer and one of the conditions for purchase was fully updated maps (latest 2019 version) and live traffic active and updated subscription Well guess what - was told the version on the car was the latest Well clearly it is not and the service manager...

    W164 'c' service - MB vs Indi and what is really required

    In a dilemma as 'C' service due in a couple of months, last time the ML went into a MB dealership was very unimpressed, ripped me off and tried to replace parts not even needed like wipers that I had changed days earlier for new Bosch parts etc. so my inclination to use a geunine dealer this...

    ML loss of control in wet?

    In the last couple of weeks I have totally lost confidence in my ML 300 when on roads that I would probably describe as 'greasy' What is happening is when it has rained recently on previously dry but 'shiny' Tarmac the front end has totally slid away at the front when turning, this has now...

    Low temperature warning on ML W164

    Noticed something yesterday which surprised me and wondered if this was normal or if there might be a fault with my ML? The temperature has dropped as we know and was around 1-2 degrees but no warning indicator or frost/ice symbol came up on the dash, I only knew as it was damn cold so I...

    Carlsson DRLs

    I took the plunge today and booked my ML for some Carlsson DRLs to be fitted, I had been thinking about these for a while as my previous car and my OHs Golf R have them and personally I think from a safety perspective they do genuinely enhance road visiblity. Should be fitted in early November...

    New steering wheel fitted to the ML today

    One of my pet hates on most cars is the awful 'standard' steering wheels and in the ML I really couldn't stand the slippery thin version so today I had Jack from www.royalsteeringwheels.com ,who previously made me a custom wheel for my 350Z, fit me a thicker, with thumb grips, perforated and...

    Steering Wheel knocking/squeak

    Over the past couple of weeks I have had the annoyance of a thudding/knock from my W164 Ml steering wheel which after taking into the local MB dealers for a check to be done (in addition to another rattling/knocking from the seat which was sorted) the engineer who came on a drive with me said...

    Kennel Club - Puppies what a joke!

    Felt the need to rant about the whole puppy buying process and how you hear about how bad puppy farming is and that the KC is trying to stop bad breeders etc. but from my experience today they are completely useless! Having decided some months ago to add a puppy to our family (we have been...

    ML 2010 Rear Lights

    As above, have removed my standard lights to replace with LED so now have both LH and RH side rear lights as new including all bulbs etc. spare. I was going to keep them in case of some disaster happening to the rear of the car but rather than take up space I thought I would see if someone else...

    Upgrading rear lights on facelift W164 ML?

    Other than a couple of small niggles with my recently purchased ML the one thing i knew I wanted to change was the rear lights as mine came with the 'standard' old style bulb type and I would really like the LED versions. Having done quite a bit if research it seems if I go OEM (part numbers...

    Just agreed to buy a 10 plate ML 300 Blue Eff - any advice gratefully received!

    So today I pulled the trigger and paid a deposit on a 2010 ML300 which I have not even seen and is over 200 miles away from me! Yes I am probably bonkers but having bought my last 3 cars without seeing them I hope I won't be disappointed when I go and collect it (possibly this weekend) but I...

    For Sale: Mint as new 18" AMG III wheels with almost new tyres

    Just sold my E220 and as it went to a dealer they said I could take the AMGs off and put the original 16" Avantgardes back on :doh: Anyway I guess that means that someone on here might want to make their 'E' look sooooooo much better than with standard wheels so I though before venturing to...
