After becoming concerned that my beloved facelift W211 had a rather worn poly belt (thanks to some forum chat) after 8 years and 82,000 miles, combined with the generally held belief that an auto box oil and filter change was due (last time it was done was at 38,000), I texted a photo of the...

I wonder how many of these De Loreans there are on the road.....I thought they had all fallen to pieces!

Just got the usual call from the main dealer after the service(covered by service plan), stating that one of the tyres was down to 3mm on the inner edge and would I like to replace it for £186.50? I explained to the ever enthusiastic service care manager (love the title), that 1.6mm was the...

Hi Guys, wondering if anyone can advise a cause/solution. I have a first floor (top floor)flat rented out and for the last 3 years I have had tenants complain of damp and mould appearing in the top corners of various room's walls and ceilings, but only on outside walls. This started the winter...

Just had this light up on my W211 E220cdi facelift so not SBC. Assuming pads front and/or rear, have you guys got an idea of cost fitted?

Took the W211 over to WIM at Chesham and had Tony himself fine tune the tracking. In fairness I thought the car was reasonably well aligned but as I had recently had new tyres put on I thought it would be a good idea. Wow.....now even crisper, not a hint of pull and a beautifully centred...

Had my auto transmission including torque converter oil flushed and filter changed at last service(service plan came with car)at 38,000miles. The question is; does this need doing every 35-40k miles or is it a one off? I am getting differing opinions. Thank you

Let the battle commence..........prices are crazy and the tax keeps getting increased. Something has to be done.

Not sure if this has been discussed before? Recently read a magazine which touced upon it. I have to confess to lining up the cigarette lighters so the smoke goes straight up(so to speak) and trying to avoid the cats eyes when over taking............sad but true :wallbash:

Very disappointed to find that inspite of a comprehensive B Service/Inspection including gearbox oil and filter change and a new ball joint all were covered under the Service Plan and Tier 1 Warranty thankfully. The dealer that did all this work less than a week ago also failed it on the coil...

Hi guys/girls, I took out a S.C.P when I purchased my used W211 E220 CDi in April this year. I have payed in £31.00 a month since so was interested to see what exactly the dealer would do regarding the service when I booked it in. The fateful day came and I chose not to mention in advance that...

Hello to one and all......I am back in the fold. I have just aquired an 07 Model W211 E220 cdi Avantgarde. Purchased from an official stealer.(That's a story in itself). Previously had a 320 CLK Convertible and The Tank...a 'T' reg E class 300 TD. Got tired of iffy reliability and dire dealers...
