    What is this? Screen in rear view mirror?

    ok I’ve googled myself to death on this one. So now I’m coming to you guys. What the hell is this little screen in my rear view mirror. It’s a standard bit of kit. I pulled the interior light out to see the wiring but it’s all standard merc stuff. Part numbers on the mirror are 010485 A046274...

    W203 rear upper front arm replacement.

    My w203 just failed the MOT on a few things so I’ve been working through the list myself but I’m now really stuck. The rear upper front suspension arm is proving to be a bit difficult. I believe it’s called the upper torque control arm. I’ve been googling for hours and I can’t seem to find a...

    So many issues I'm not sure where to start and whats related

    Ok so I recently decided to take my dash out to replace a faulty cog on the charcoal filter flap motor. Bit of a PITA to be honest and really was not worth the hassle. Anyway I noticed today that my passenger door seems to be completely dead. No power to windows, seats, mirror, not even the...

    anyone replaced a charcoal flap motor?

    I got a bit carried away the other day and I've removed most of my interior while trying to find the cause of the clicking on start up. I've removed the top of the dash and I can see the motor that is causing the clicking but I can't seem to access it. It's the charcoal flap motor. I was...

    Does anyone else have an issue with their washer fluid going bad really quickly. I've been draining and changing mine every few days and topping up with different makes of fluid but it still ends up smelling like it's contaminated with some type of fluid. Like a transmission fluid smell. It's...

    Sprinter fuel issues P2007

    Afternoon all, I'm having issues with my 2004 sprinter 208 cdi. Whenever I rev about 3k it drops and gives me the edc and fuel light on the dash. So when I'm driving it restricts the fuel and then it comes back. It's not a full limp mode but it's like I'm letting off the accelerator completely...

    metal bonding glue

    Does anyone know of a decent metal glue, preferably one that is a conductor when dry. I'm trying to bodge a wire onto a starter motor on a laguna but it's in such an awkward place that I can't solder it. I've tried evo-stick rapid metal and an araldite one but they don't conduct lol Any...

    New diff needed on the C32, standard or Quaife?

    Well the poorly C32 has sat long enough and I'm looking at replacing the differential at last. I've been browsing eBay for them and just as I went to purchase a whole unit last night, including casing, I suddenly thought what about upgrading while it's out. I wouldn't say I'm obsessed with...
