Sorry I've just read you had replaced the battery. Still might be worth getting it tested I'm in the trade and I've seen faulty new/not very old batteries.

Have a test carried out on your battery, could be when your alternator was killing your battery that damaged one/some of the cells and now the temp is dropping which is what normally finishes off failing batteries it's now had it.

No problem, This is the one I bought and it worked perfectly: BRAND NEW Mercedes Ball Joint Installer Remover W220/W211/W230 UK tool kit | eBay

Where are you? If your local I could lend mine out

It is simple to do but as I said start off course (600grit) and finish off fine (2000grit or higher) and a few grades in between (1000 and 1500 is what I use) the higher you finish the less work the compound has to do and if you do not own a machine polisher you can buy a mini head which can be...

If you'd like to make them look brand new you could try what I did and that was to attack them with wet and dry sand paper I use a fairy liquid and water mix to keep the paper lubed and I start with 600 grit followed by 1000 grit then 1500 grit and finally 2000 before using a machine polisher...

New supercharger idler fitted today I wanted to swap out the bearing but I was able to pick up a Febi which is the make of the genuine Mercedes one I removed for just £20 so wasn't worth messing around with: Check out this video I made of the old idler. Caught it just in time I'm...

Final bits finished this evening with the 3 seals in the oil filter housing swapped out and a fresh oil and filter and finally the new IBF 65 mm pulley fitted: On the way home I had the Torque app running on the phone to just see if there was a difference so I accelerated not to...

Well my 65mm pulley I ordered from IBF in Poland left Poland last Thursday via GLS post and it's now sat at my local Parcel Force depot ready for delivery tomorrow (not bad going IMO), I've also booked with Eurocharged for the end of the week, can't wait...... In preparation for it's power...

Well I pulled the trigger and it cost me just £230 delivered for a steel 65mm pulley with a NSK bearing I could have also had a duralu one for the same price but I have read some bad things about them not ones from this chap but in general so I opted for the steel one should be with me in 5 days...

Well my new LED HB4's and resistors finally turned up and after work I popped the car up on the ramp and swapped them out and they look great. At lunch time today I set about hooking up the wiring to run the fog lights as DRL's it is simple and most of the work has to be done inside the...

After talking with Eurocharged last week I wanted to go and collect a pulley and map but they don't carry the pulley's in stock so you have to wait 2 weeks for it to come from the states. Well I'm not that patient and I really want to carry out this power upgrade asap, why they don't keep in...

Here's a couple of pictures with the light smoke film I fitted last night over my factory Xenon lights and I like the look, I've used this light smoke film before and it makes no noticeable difference to the light output especially when used with Xenon lights. I also fitted my new metal...

Thanks for the heads up In fact I've just been into work and applied a light smoke film to the fronts, it was too dark get any pictures but I'll get some tomorrow, I'm now much happier with the look of them. Thanks. Don't mind at all I mix it 10/1 so 10 parts clear lacquer and 1 part...

Thanks, I love the brakes too, the gloss neon green really pop against the satin black. With the lights I was looking at swapping them out for a set of after market projectors and fitting a HID kit but I have the factory fitted Xenon's and I'm unsure and cant find the answer to if I'm...

Thanks

Well I originally checked it with my garages Bosch KTS 570 diagnostic machine but after I had installed the new pump I just checked it out on my code reader/live data app Torque on my Android phone which connects by Bluetooth or WiFi to a little device called a ELM27 that you plug into the...

Surely someone has carried out this modification????

Thanks, I am going to paint the stock grill gloss black probably this weekend and see how it looks back on
