My C Class has failed on emissions. My mechanic has changed a few of the sensors which helped a bit but it still hasn't passed. The next step is to replace the cat which I don't have the funds to do when it might not even fix the issue. Does anyone know a good MOT test centre in Essex?

Hi, Unfortunately my keyfob for my 2004 W203 C200 Kompressor has stopped working. I have changed the battery and the red light shows on the fob when you press either the lock, unlock or boot open but none of them work and the fob will not start the car. I assume this means the keyfob needs...

Hi, I have recently bought a W203 C Class 200 SE Kompressor Auto. It's a great car but I have had a reoccurring issue with a loss of power. The issue means that from a start even if I put the excelerator to the floor the car only creeps forward and then picks up. This has proved quite...

Hi, I need a new w124 ignition barrel. Are the £10 ones on EBay ok or are there better ones around? cheers

Hi, I'm on holiday in Cornwall (Bude) in my w124 230TE and somehow the near side indicator unit, bulb and bulb holder has been pulled out. I assume I have gone down to many tight leafy lanes and it's come loose. Does anyone know anywhere in this area I can get the parts I need? Thanks

Hi, Does anyone know where I can get a cheap W124 NSR Window Regulator (230te) cheers Matt

Hi, I've seen an N reg w124 estate for sale but the owner says that it needs the rear suspension subframe mounts replaced to pass the MOT. Is this a big/expensive job? cheers

Hi, I have a little bit of rust on the front wheel arch of my W124 Estate that is getting progressively worse. If the car keeps going I may get a replacement panel next year but in the meantime I'm looking for a quick and cheap fix to tidy it up and make it last a little longer. I was...

Hi, Kwik Fit tried to adjust my front tracking rods but were unable to due to them being seized. Is it a big/expensive job to fix? The car does pull a little to the right which isn't ideal but is it dangerous? cheers

Hi, My W124 230TE has developed a squeaking/screeching sound when I go around corners. Any ideas what the issue maybe? cheers

Hi, My 1991 230TE has just started misfiring. It shakes and judders and loses power. This only seems to happen when the engine warms up though. I took it to a local garage and they changed the spark plugs which did improve it slightly but the problem still persists. Has anyone got any...

Hi, My brake warning light has just started coming on. It does go off if I brake to a stop but then goes on again. I have read up that this is due to low brake fluid. Is it usual to have to top up brake fluid or does this mean that there is a leak? cheers Matt

Hi, My reverse lights have stopped working on my 1991 230te. The bulbs are good and it looks as if the fuses are also ok (I think I have checked the right one ut its quite unclear which fuse serves the reverse lights). Has anyone got any ideas? cheers Matt

Hi, I am trying to get hold of some clear indicators for my 230TE. I have found some in a classified ad but they are for an M reg w124 200e. Will these fit and if not does anyone have any clear indicator units (two for the front and two for the sides) that they want to sell? cheers
