    C220 AMG plastic roof peeling

    Lots of this sort of thing happening to all makes. Lacquered plastic panels are a nightmare. It seems ok if they are painted panels such as bumpers etc. where they are primed and painted but these roof panels seem to just have a clearcoat over the base colour plastic and it won't key as well...

    my alarm on my 2002 ML270 goes off at midnight randomly most nights , I am upsetting my neighbours , what can I do ?

    One more, check the time that it goes off. This used to be an old trick that I fell foul of, the alarm goes off every night until you leave it off and then the next day, there is a hole where your window used to be or worse, a gap where your car was. It's amazing how it never goes off during...

    Part number for W202 Phone mount, I want the RHD version of this

    Those would be absolutely perfect and I remember having them back in the day but although I have searched, I can't seem to find anything like them any more. Any web search just returns the rubbish suction cup stuff that you see in all car windscreens now. If you would sell those, I would be...

    Part number for W202 Phone mount, I want the RHD version of this

    Can any of you part number gurus assist me please? I want one of these to mount my car phone to in my C43 S202 for that authentic 90's look. Obviously I'm not going to drill the dash and I can't find anything else that will work properly but I'm open to suggestions. The part number for this...

    Wanted - Car phone or early Nokia handsfree kit

    iPhones! I love them and use Apple stuff for everything outside of work BUT I do keep them for a fair while, this week I replaced my faithful XS Max that I've been using for over 4 years now and you will all be familiar with the story if you use iPhones (and I dare say the same for Android)...

    Wanted - Car phone or early Nokia handsfree kit

    I've started a nostalgia thread here - quite pleased with that! I had the Nokia Orange as my first phone, it was their version of the 2110 (I think it was a 2140 as Orange ran on 1800Mhz whereas all the others were something like 900Mhz. I say all the others, it was Cellnet and Vodafone...

    Wanted - Car phone or early Nokia handsfree kit

    A lot did yes. My car already had a hole put in the roof for a phone antenna at a guess, the aerial was there when I got the car but not connected to anything so I replaced it with a decent DAB one that I already had. I have digital quality adverts if I want them!

    Wanted - Car phone or early Nokia handsfree kit

    If it's there, great, if not, never mind, The phones were analogue and there generally wasn't a SIM as such, it was somehow programmed internally but not something a user could change, I'm certain it can't be anything more than a prop these days.

    Wanted - Car phone or early Nokia handsfree kit

    Mate, that would be awesome, I hope it's still there. The worst part is that for years I moved my dad's really lovely Panasonic EB unit around his garage as he refused to throw it out until I finally got fed up with it and threw it myself. I regret that now! All of the buttons lit up in a...

    Wanted - Car phone or early Nokia handsfree kit

    Have any of you lovely people got a car phone in your garage that you don't want anymore? I quite fancy having one in my C43 as I feel it would complete the yuppie look. In truth, the car is a 1999 so it would've been a bit late to the party for a built in car phone but I figure most people...

    Clay mitt

    Looks amazing but it's rubbed the letters off your front plate! 😃

    Front number holder: flat not curved

    My irrational hatred of 4D plates is the name. They are not four dimensional. I know it was to differentiate from the 3D printed lettering but even so, they could have come up with something more accurate however I doubt it would be as appealing. I've always felt that the numberplate itself...

    W211 E280 Diesel Smell

    Do these have the rubber 'leak off' pipes between the injectors? I've had a couple of old diesel BMWs that have then and as they age, they allow a little diesel to seep through, they're reinforced with a woven fabric outside that soaks up the diesel and it really smells, (as Johnsco suggests...

    How to remove interior ‘crayon’ smell

    I prefer the smell of crayons 😆 It's interesting that something with such a strong scent can absorb other aromas though, no doubt there is a scientific explanation for it if I had the mind to investigate further.

    How to remove interior ‘crayon’ smell

    Very interesting. I recently sold my 2009 CLK but I know the exact smell you are describing, the 2003 one we had wasn't as obvious from memory but that's been gone for years now. I called my wife one day when she was in it and she'd just picked up a friend who said "I really love your car...

    Replacement shocks for S202 C43

    No, they're not adjustable, what would be the point? It's not a track car. I have adjustable shocks on my Mustang (factory fit), they're set half way and I've never touched them! Dust covers, yes, you have to move all of that over, bump stops. covers, the annoying little spring washer etc...

    Wiper intermittent not working W123 1985

    I'd check that the relay is getting power when you switch the wipers to intermittent and that you have a good earth at that point also. From there I'd easy enough to test a relay with a 12v supply. If you have a multimeter that's cheaper than throwing parts at it and it will help you to know...
