    2000x CLK320 elegance tip auto vgc fsh

    Forgot to say, it has the usual clk/ e class problem that some segments of the clock and temp gauge come and go. It can be fixed without spending anything but it`s a fiddly job. The big centre OBC display works perfectly.

    Catalytic Convertor / MOT Dilemma - E300TD

    I have used aftermarket cats on many vehicles without a problem, maybe the problem that damaged your first 2 cats also took out your aftermarket one. Cats are simple devices, as long as they are not subjected to physical damage or overheated due to unburnt fuel down the exhaust or clogged up...

    Not Merc but great MPG

    yep, I realise that, I`m a member of the IAM, what I meant was speaking from experience a normally aspirated diesel can be frustratingly sluggish.

    E class estate

    window tints are normally a film applied to the inside of the windows and it isnt as scratch resistant as glass, dogs paws tear it very easily. of course this doesn`t apply if the glass is being replaced with tinted glass.
