Hi W140 S500 Recently EC button came on air con as found needed topping up. Sorted that and all full and back to normal but now everytime I start up the EC light is on. Can turn it off before I start the car and everything all ice cold and great but is there a way I can get rid of it still...

Looking to buy a lhd cl55 or similar for france but essential can put bikes on it. Currently have a 1998 CL500 with the roof rails and bike carriers which are great, anybody know if you can get the same for the 2000 and on model of the new CL55 . Don't suppose anyone would want to swop if they...

Just a thanks to those who helped with my suspension problem on an S500. Changed the accumulators as advised and car drives like new. No more sea sickness and space hopper cornering. In end main dealer cost was not too bad. £220 labour and same for parts but well worth it. Thanks again to...

Just wondering if anyone out there (Acid?)has a price for two accumulators for a W140 S500 pref new along with any other bits I might need likes pipes or whatever. Forum has been great in narrowing down these are what I require to help my faulty self levelling suspension system so onto the next...

Paul Not letting me into pm, maybe because I am new here, or too stupid. Not sure which can you help Cheers

Paul ta for that will ask him

Read again your link and it does back your view in that my fluid is now really low so am hopefully on right track, not sure who I know that could deal with the very detailed way of changing them and as i don't know Uri Gellar would struggle with the bendy spanners. Will make some enquiries...

Just my luck to have it ! Only bothered it might be an mot failure as one is due at the end of this month and just trying to plan ahead. That said passed last year and was no different and only done 3000 mile since 2000 to Nice and back. Does seem like an avenue to go down before panicking. Will...

Are these the things at the top of the shock absorbers that look like something the queen holds when she is crowned for wont of a better description. If so assume these can be replaced. phil

Derek Thanks for that, let me know how you get on but have a feeling your skills and knowledge here a tad above mine. As my other merc is a cl500 has a much firmer ride and I supposed am used to that but follow your explanation of how system works and really helpful.Would love to think don't...

Just noticed today( actually just noticed after 3 years ) the hydraulic fluid tank on min so will top up tomorrow but def not empty

Basically seems to be sitting fine just bounces around too much esp when going over a speed bump. I take it to south france every year and think I have maybe overloaded it a bit but always looked fine and level. When I push boot down just not as firm as at front.

Cheers Thanks for that guys will give them a call

I am not the only night owl then

Just a quick intro, got a s500 and a cl500 both w140 and although love them they are not getting any younger and feel some wise advice on occasion may allow me to hang on to them for many more years. Already posted a suspension question in wheels and whatsits as a first shout for help. Phil

Have just joined having looked at one or two clubs and decided this looks like the real thing when it comes to mercs. I have a 1998 cl500 and also a 1998 s500 which I enjoy both equally. The s500 though bounces around at the back a bit now esp over speed bumps. I think partly because I take...
