Zombie thread! Any news on the wheel bearing issues?

Can you not stop earning a living and supporting your client base, and TAKE SOME PICTURES!!!!!!??????? ;o)

EPC? I'm not aware of that..... Sounds as if I should be though... Jim

Bugger, thanks for that. How do these people maintain thier feedback rating whilst selling keys that don't work........?

Exactly. I have one remote fob, single button, large type for the RCL on my 94 W124. I would like a second, but at over £140 for the key from the stealer, I was wondering if it were worth picking up a key from the usual auction sites and syncing it with my RCL. You reckon it will not sync...

I have a key that has a part number on the side of it. I am looking to buy another key that looks identical to my key and want to check its compatible. I have its part number and wondered if there was any way I could cross reference the part number to make sure it will work. I doubt the stealer...

I might email the dealer manager and let him know his parts guys are talking a load of rubbish.

I had occasion to call my local dealer for some part prices. When I asked him what those part numbers were, he told me it was not MB p;oicy to pass on part numbers as I might use them to source the bits somewhere else cheaper! I was amazed. He went on to tell me there there was no discount for...

I'm not adverse to spannering the car or my bike, but when I paid good money and have a written and verbal agreement on what that car is sold with, I'm not getting dirty. This one is pride, not ability! ;o) A great write up and bookmarked, just in case loike..... Any hope of getting part...

I always thought a scruffy looking (but perfectly engineered) 190 diesel, badges intact, with a 500 V8 in it would be nice. Let us know how it goes?

Fantastic write up Andy, thanks for that. I'm hoping my dealer will pay for it to be done, but iof they will not pay the labour, it looks as if this post will be handy.......

Hello all, Sorry I have not updated this thread, but things have moved on! The fault diagnosis on the aircon is as follows: Broken wiore in the 3 pin plug to the compressor. This was not allowing the compressor speed sensor to give the "OK" and allow the compressor to run. Cycling the...

I just tried both methods. No joy with drivers door. Boot works fine though, so it must be the receiver in the door itself. Bummer.

:bannana: :bannana: :bannana: :bannana: :bannana: :bannana: Slap yourself on the back! Did you get any LED's lighting up in the door previously, cos I am wondering if that is what needs doing in my car............

Thanks to all. The seat backs were definately faulty when we collected the car after its MOT. As it was a safety issue, I have set about sorting the issues. Turned out there were two problems on the mechanism. The passenger seat hinge trim had been dislodged some time in the past and was...

I recdently bought a 1994 E320 W124 Coupe. I knew the drivers seat was floppy, and the passenger side was jammed in the locked position. Dealer offered to put a fresh MOT on the vehicle prior to collection. This was duly done and the car collected. However, I now know the floppy seat backs...

Grober, many thanks. I have passed that link and sent some PDF's to the engineer who will be tackling the job on my car later this month. It seems I amy have a faulty control unit, and an issue with the heater water valve. W124's I owned in the past had that valve cycling when the engine was...

BUMP! No one got them then? Does anyone have the testing procedures for the aircon on a 94 W124 then? I got as far as testing the aux fans (they work) and attempting to engage the compressor (does not). The pages I have for the system refer me back to the pages I listed above for...

Hello everyone, I'm hoping if one of you has the CD manual full of PDF files that you will be able to find it in your hearts to send me the pages from the climate section. For some reason my copy is incomplete and missing the pages: 83-502, 83-504, 83-505, 93-504. If you can help...

Thanks to all, the new pads are in. The first side took me ages, but the second took only 20 mins. The key is to split the two halves of the caliper and make sure that EVERYTHING is cleaned off. Crusty old calipers will not allow the pads to move around and centre properly, and the sliding...
