I recently bought a C250 coupe (May) and have noticed that the boot floor/liner is very flimsy! It bends under the weight of shopping or a suitcase, almost to the extent that its collapsing into the spare wheel well. Is this common? Can it be strengthened? I'm wondering if the previous owner...

Whenever the car (W204) had been turned off, the radio on start up always reverts to a radio station that isn't programmed to a saved station. How do I stop this? 🤔

Hi guys, I've been away from MBs for a while but have recently been looking at getting a W204 coupe. Almost every 204 that I've done an MOT check on has had advisories for front tyre wear. Is there a problem with (uneven) tyre wear on W204s? Or do people who own this model just not bother...

Hi everyone, I last had an MB back in 2012, since then I have had a couple of other cars including my current BMW (I know, I know....) I have the car bug again, and am looking to possibly come back to MB and have been looking at a 2015 C220 Coupe. Can anyone give me some feedback on them...

I'm sure I'm not alone in liking Skyline GTRs (R33,34,35) Ultimately I'd love to own one and have even considered downsizing my everyday car considerably so that I can have a GTR for a toy! I'm not as flush as some on here, so expense is an issue - which pretty much rules out an R34 or R35 and...

On Saturday I was driving through town when I noticed a sudden vibration as I turned at a junction - it felt very much like I was driving over rumble strips. As I accelerated, it stopped, but then appeared again as I let off the accelerator and coasted to a junction. It vibrated while I sat...

Is it an easy job to remove the drivers door window switch cluster? Does it just pry off? There's a rattle in mine and I'd love to get inside and see what it is. I've a feeling it's part of one of the switches that seems a bit loose.

Can anyone recommend a good(ish) cheap(!) bluray player that I can use with a laptop? I just need it to get some music files that I am being sent on disc - I could use my bluray player but apparently it's a little "clunky" for doing this.

I need new discs for my W203. I've had a look on eurocarparts and there's various matches. Eicher Premium Brake Disc (Front) look ok to me. They're drilled and vented which the originals aren't. Can anyone give me any pointers?

I have a bit of a knocking sound coming from the rear of the car - possibly just bushes and not much to worry about so no worry there. When I have the nearside windows down (particularly the rear) there's a very "tinny" rattle that seems to be coming from the rear n/s wheel area. I had new...

Went to bed last night and heard a constant high pitch alarm type noise, looked out but couldn't see anything.. Got up today and heard the same noise, so I went outside and it's my car!!! The indicators aren't flashing and it starts, but there's a horrible wine coming from under the bonnet...

Can anyone let me know how to remove the rear shelf on a W203 Saloon? One of my speaker covers has an annoying buzz with certain base notes so I need to have a look and see if I can secure it.....

Where can I get a data sheet for my car? I believe there's someone on here who can do this? :thumb:

Now that the weather has become a little colder I have noticed that my MPG has dipped. My journey to work usually sees me arriving with around 40mpg showing; now we have the cold snap, this has dipped to around 35mpg! Could this be because the cold air is denser and therefore can absorb more...

I have previously posted (years ago?) about one of my headlights going out whilst driving. The problem appeared to have cleared up, until the cold , damp weather started - I now find that the offside light starts to flicker and goes out! I can bring it back on by turning the lights off then on...

My nearside headlight adjuster doesn't seem to work - it turns, but with no movement to the light. It was a close call on the MOT and the tester tried to adjust it with no luck. The light pattern is now looking too high. The question is: can the adjuster be replaced/fixed? As I don't...

After having my car on STAR, I need a new control unit. The part number is 203 820 64 85 Can anyone help me out with this? - the independent MB garage has quoted me what I think is a BIG price (I'm quite tight!!! )

This morning I had a restraint/visit workshop warning, along with the SRS light staying on. Is this likely to be something simple/easy to rectify? Or could it be a number of things?

The led indicator on my o/s mirror only seems to work when it's in the folded position. Is it likely that it's a case of cleaning some contacts, and if so, how easy are they to get to?

The need to release some cash for an inpending house repair means I will have to part company with the Merc. 86k miles in Silver, Mot until April, good condition. Lovely comfortable car, leather, and usual refinements. Make me a sensible offer! :thumb:
