    W212 E350 Sport Turbo Woes

    I've had my E350 for a few years now and have rattled off a good 40k miles. Although it was on 95k when I bought it, it was perfectly serviced as it was the MD's car of a Mercedes main dealers. Driving back from the east coast on Friday when it started making a whistling noise, my first...

    E350 Boot Randomly Opening

    Thanks for the replies peeps. Just did the same and went out in the rain to go have a look for the keyhole, before I read Red's post lol. Yeah no keyhole. Tony, Yes only one location, on my drive. I was thinking along the lines of maybe a stray signal. Was 100% sure the boot was closed as my...

    E350 Boot Randomly Opening

    I did check them and nothing looks wrong, split or otherwise. Definitely no lock, besides there's no key to go it lol I may have a run down to MB in town see if they suggest anything.

    E350 Boot Randomly Opening

    Slight problem with that idea. The W212's don't have a key for the boot, or a keyhole to lock it with lol

    E350 Boot Randomly Opening

    I've had my E350 Sport Estate (W212) since the start of year. Three times now I've woken up in the morning to find my boot open. My keys are hung on a peg every night and can't understand how the button could have been pressed by accident, it is quite a purposeful action with the press and hold...

    W212 Passenger Head Rest

    Ive just bought a 2010 E320 Estate Sport and I'm very happy with it too. But, it's a pet peev of mine having all the head rests down so you can't see the extension bars. The drivers seat goes down no problem, but the passenger side seems to stop short by a couple of inches. Is this...

    Identifying Engine Spec E350's

    Ok thank you. With the limited budget and very specific engine size the pickings are very slim. Will not having 265bhp bother me so much, probably not, having as many bells and whistles bother me more, probably. Meh.

    Identifying Engine Spec E350's

    Oh Steve, on the question of pano, I've seen a couple of videos with an electric screen going over both sections? Is that correct or are they just an American spec spec.

    Identifying Engine Spec E350's

    They are both on a par with each on on balance, although the white one is a little higher milage, but lower in price. oh I don't know, this is doing my swede in lol. I'll think about it further over a drink lol

    Identifying Engine Spec E350's

    Oh don't say that as I'm now in a dilemma. Two cars each with the different engines, but the lower sized engine is higher spec and pano. But it's white which is putting me off big time, wife loves it. I prefer a silver one which is 265 no pano. I think we have some driving to do tomorrow...

    Identifying Engine Spec E350's

    I'm on the market for a E350 Estate W212 and I'm aware that the larger 265bhp was introduced after Q2 2011. Looking around various adds there's a lot of variation on the BHP quoted with some 2010 cars saying 265BHP, which of course is probably wrong. Could some of you wise sages out there help...

    Tyre Dylema W208

    I've currently run Goodyear Asymetrics on the front of my w208 320 Coupe. After a few months I started to get the known problem on the fronts tyres scuffing in tight turns. After doing lots of research, changing the stearing rack, bottom ball joints and finally having the whole geometry done...
