    W211 AirCon only working on Passenger Side

    I had the same on my 57 plate S211. Cool on the passenger side and warm on the drivers side. The air con specialist said it could be the blender unit or low gas. The car was re gassed and the car was perfect, cold both sides, turned out when it was re gassed a couple of years earlier, they did...

    I had the same problem on my E320 Cdi. I put some WD40 on the actuator rod and do it every 6 months or so and the problem has not re occurred. Worth a try.

    Newly Purchased Facelift S211 E320CDI enters Limp Mode / judders

    I had the same problem with my e320 Cdi v6. I was told it was the turbo electronic control box on the turbo and I will need a new turbo. Decided to put up with it and about 18 months later, just by chance I was chatting with a colleague who used to work as a mechanic in formula 1, he said it...

    Try carparts4less, same as Euro Car Parts but much cheaper. I source my own parts and have a mobile mechanic to fit them. Big service due this summer, expecting total cost to be around £200.

    E320cdi S211 Smoking

    Olly, I assume it smoke, it seems too much to be vapour. There is no real smell to it, does not smell of fuel or oil. Even though we are experiencing cold weather this week, last week was much warmer and the smoke was still evident. For the last few months I have been adding millers diesel...

    E320cdi S211 Smoking

    Don't think there is a boost leak unless there is a special test. A mechanic friend had a listen under the bonnet and did not notice any thing unusual. Just curious to a possible turbo failure, I have no loss of acceleration and engine sounds normal, it still sprints to 60mph in just over 7 secs.
