2006 R320 94,000 miles. Black. Covered in seagull crap. Wifey driving down the motorway at a steady 70, dash lights up with ESP/ABS/SRS deactivated then the seat tensioners pulled in tight and frightened the life out of her. Pulled over at the services, restarted and it was ok then later in the...

Hi all. I need a good bow roof limit switch for the wife's 2002 W208. I believe the part number is 2088202310. Any offers before I call Mercede$ ?

Happy Sunday everyone. My W203 woes continue. Has anyone ever heard of a module in the car going nuts and flooding the CAN network? My PITA 1999 C240 has gone from brake lights stuck on to engine running without the key and now the alarm goes off and the radiator fan starts as soon as I...

Hi Anyone know where the engine and transmission grounds leads are on 2000 C Class (W203)? I have the underside covers off and can't find them to check them. Thanks.

Hi all. I'm battling various electronic gremlins. Would a broken (and damaged) ambient temp sensor that's reading 100c make the Front SAM go nuts? I can't turn the key, brake lights on all the time key in or out. Many bananas things wrong with this thing. :bannana:

Hi. Would anyone know if I replace the front SAM for the exact same part number on my 2000 C240 would it need recoding by a dealer? Cheers.

Hi all. Yet Another brake lights on post but... About to throw this PITA W203 C 240 away. I will pass a MOT but has a problem with the brake lights stuck on even with the brake light switch removed. I had this question in the /brakes forum but thought I'd try my luck here. I've replaced...

Hi all. Yet another brake lights on post but... About to throw this PITA W203 C 240 away. I will pass a MOT but has a problem with the brake lights stuck on even with the brake light switch removed. I had this question in the /brakes forum but thought I'd try my luck here. I've replaced...

Hi. C240 2001. Is it normal to have a 2mm hole in the NSR wheel arch?? Is it ok to just Rust Remedy it and fill the hole? Cheers.

Evening all. My PITA W203 C 240 has a problem with the brake lights stuck on even with fuse 62 taken out. I've recently replaced the BAS/ABS module to sort out a BAS/ABS error which seems fine now. Doing that job I disconnected the battery and it's since then the brake lights are stuck on...

Evening all. Today I was about to send my W203 C Class 240 in for MOT and noticed the brake lights are on all the time that the ignition is on. I've got a good scanner and getting B1048/Stored & Current. "Circuit 54 has Short circuit to positive". Can't see any damp around the rear SAM...

Hi all. C 240 2003. My 4 screw A2035451632 BAS/ABS module is fubar according to BBA-Reman and they want £ 440 for a replacement. If I fit a 3 screw module with pump will it work ok? Cheers.

Hi all. This is a completely revised post to one posted earlier as things have changed and the old post is no longer relevant. 2001 W203 240 with the common EAS, ABS, limp home problem. All signs point to the brake light switch which I changed for a new Lucas unit straight away. With either...

Sorry folks yet another ESP, ABS, no speedo, limp home thread but with a twist. Just picked up a lovely (and cheap) C240 2001. This is my 3rd Merc in recent years and I'm fine with reading codes and replacing sensors but this one is giving me a bit of a headache. I have an excellent...

Hi all. My wife's W208 2003 CLK 230 without climate control's blower stopped working. I'd already replaced the regulator so knew where to go... I've confirmed the fan is fine, the regulator is fine. If I inject 12v on to the centre pin of the regulator the fan goes full speed. Looking at...

Evening all. My daughter's SLK 230 R170's driver's side window stops too high. I've taken off the door card and can see a couple of stops but the inboard one seems to do nothing at all. There's no microswitches in there at all. This car has been fiddled and poked with a lot so no telling...

Hi all. Recently bought a '98 SLK 230 and the engine oil dipstick is just a 2":eek: stump . I'm changing the oil right now and can't tell if I've put in enough or not. I have a clean auto trans dipstick handy, could someone tell me measurement from the dipstick tube neck to the minimum mark...

Evening all. Just bought an old R170 SLK 1998. The drivers window sits outside the rubber and it makes a lot wind noise. The passenger side is fine. Looks like the glass is misaligned in the door; is this common? I've had a search around and not got far. Cheers. Paul.

Evening all. Got the common problem of the parktronic showing two red bars and a long beep. I don't trust MB to give an honest diagnosis so thinking a MB independant might be able to tell me which sensor is down. A few other things to fix on the car (BAS light comes on every now and then)...

Hi all. Had a good look round and couldn't find anything related to my '02 CLK 230K's roof's particular problem. Basically the roof's body cover does not lift out of the way. The bow part of the roof lifts but the body cover stays put. The pump runs and runs waiting for the cover. I've not...
