Hi Mark thanks for the prompt reply. I have now been under the car some more and have removed the metal plate thingy fro under the steering rack. I have had a poke around checking that the pipes are still intact, and all looks ok. now, I did notice a glistening around the big joints on the...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- hi, me again. more problems. ok, My wife has a c class 270CDI, w203, 52 plate. recently she said it sounded funny when turning the steering, and this got worse over a few days, and also had the pulsing left...

Hi All I bought a C Class 2.7 CDI 10 months ago. initially it was an old dog, but with a new boost sensor and a replaced injector, it is now wonderful!! getting 54MPG on long runs. But some eejit pulled across in front of me last week, and in avoiding him, I ran the car over a log someone...

Hi Y'all further to a few posts about rubbish and lumpy engine, I just took it to an Indy and got Star codes. first showed hundreds of stored codes (as I have been replacing some bits and repairing stuff) anyway, he got me a few issues after a reset: P0105-128: B28 pressure sensor...

grumpy, unfortunately, they don't match. mine are 0445 110 121 and the scrappy ones are 0445 110 177 so seems no way around it......................... I have seen some good words about diesel bob. seems cheap compared to some. anyone used him, and what do you think? I'm expecting an...

Hi E270 please elaborate on how etc? and where do I find the engine number?

cheers for that. seems like I will be putting the others up on ebay then. does seems strange that the 2 engines would have different injectors. both 270CDI, same BHP, CC etc damn shame as the injectors look hardly used.

the codes ok, so I have looked on the injectors for a common codes that could be the part number. on my car, the common codes seams to be A 613 070 06 87. does this seems like the right code? problam is that the others I have have a slightly different code: A 648 070 06 87 am I looking...

Hi ALL after many happy hours of just generally reading stuff on here, I have a question that I have yet to fiond the answer for. I have a C270 CDI, 52 plate, which is running like a washing machine. uneven tickover, limp home mode etc etc. as suggested, It is booked in for a STAR read...

:confused: Hi All strange problem with the speakers. have read threads on here that deal with some issues and solutions, but not the exact problem speakers on passenger side are crap, very low volume, muffled and crackly. this is everything passenger side, all drivers side are OK. stuck...

quick one. I have a parrot ck3000 kit to go in my 52 plate class. Ebay is selling this one though Mercedes C Class Parrot Steering Interface Kit CTPPAR004 for CK3000 | eBay which apparently allows the parrot to integrate with the merc controls. anyone done it? any good?

ok, moving the car around the other day (C270 CDI) (still not driving properly due to engine issues) and I realised I have no idea where the back end is!! I have changed from always driving estates, easy enough as the car stops where the back window is. VERY different on the saloon so, I have...

Hi All ----this is going to be a long one from my other threads, you may know that my engine is a dog. just bought the car, so trying to fix things. I have done a lot of the cosmetic stuff (mirrors, big clean, polish, new mats etc) just to make me a little happier about how bad the engine...

found the issue a few years in the reply (AHEM) sold the car and the new owner let me know the issue, apparently there was a water plug in the engine that was leaking, and allowing water in around the distributor just in case it helps anyone else!!!

Hi All just bought a 270 CDi at a good price, knowing that there were some engine issues. just had a local garage look at the fault codes, and he has pulled that 3 of the injectors are not working, and low fuel pressure at the rail. he also checked the boost pipes, and said that there was...

oh, and he is currently getting 24MPG according to the trip computer!

Oh, and forgot to say, very lumpy on tickover. I am near the car all day, so if there are any quick and easy tests I can do, let me know, and I will have a look during the day

Ok, do its a good price, this is a good start! Dieselman, all the bits you mentioned, would they all reset turning the car off and on again? And will all the faults throw up error codes? How accurate are the errors on a merc, pretty direct, or 'could be this this or this'? And thanks for the...

well, he's looking for £500 for the car. it has 170K on the clock, but this still seems a reasonable price? or can anyone recommend a fault reader from ebay that will actually read the codes? most seem to be diesel from 2004 onwards :(

Hi All ok, I am not a mercedes owner just yet, but there is a possibility that I could be, if it does not cost too much. Guy at work is selling his '02 clk 270 CDi (I think this is correct?) anyhow, there are some issues, which after having a read around on here, seem all too common! loss...
