I've been a member of this site for a while although not been "around" for a while. I currently drive an ML420 on an 08 plate, but I have the "mid-life bug" to get a sports car. I don't think the SLK will be big enough (although I haven't tried one yet) so I'm trawling the ads for an SL. I have...

Hello, as the title says, I know it's not easy to value a car in a forum - but ball park figure ? There aren't many about at the moment that I can compare her with :( W140 S320 Azurite Blue, tan leather. Wooden steering wheel. Electric, heated front seats. Parktronic. Registered 1998 I'm the...

Hello, I am looking to purchase the above car and would like help with ipod and phone connectivity. The car has command with DVD sat nav, and phone pre wire [there is a connector in the centre arm rest] I think that blu-tooth connectivity for the phone would be my best option, as my partner...

2008 :( guess I'm scuppered then- thanks for trying :) Netrix

Hi there - bit of a serial lurker here ... I know this is an old post, and that my current car is an S320 [W140] - but I have the chance to buy an ML420 and wondered if anyone can help me with finding out exactly what is has and doesn't have via the VIN ? Details: WDC1641282A324735 Many thanks...

Hi Dec - thanks for your assistance - I think you may have something there !! Just locked myself in the car (for the record, I only have one fob, the alarm and doors work of the Mercedes key fob) When armed the led blinks every 3 seconds. I started to move and the motion sensors on the A pillar...

It's looking that way - I posted in another Benz forum and that is what they have said :( Looks like I'll have to find an alarm specialist. I thought it was factory fit because I have two little "dongles" that fit in a tiny socket in the driver's footwell. I'm told plugging in either the...

Hello - I have a 1998 S320 with what I believe is a factory fitted alarm. Recently the lamp on the dash that tells me the alarm is armed has started to illuminate whilst driving. sometimes it stays on for two or three minutes, other times it just flashes on and off again. The alarm still...

:D That just about sums it up !! I'll have a better look tomorrow - Can anyone confirm that I should be able to remove the front bumber on my own ? I've read somewhere it's just 4 bolts and Bobs your uncle.... I doubt it will be that easy :confused:.

Had a look but still confused ? It's the offside horn that is working but as mentioned before it's very dull sounding. After do a little online research I expected to find the nearside horn in the area below the headlamp, behind the bumper - but I can't see it :( I've had a good look, the...

Hi all - this should be an easy one for you ;) Last night whilst driving home I had the urge to let another road user know how I felt, with a long press on my horn - oo er !! (for "road user" read inconsiderate, dangerous plank") It was a bit of an anti climax as I only got about a second of a...

There is a forum on the web where experts in decriminalised parking regularly help those that feel that they have been treated unfairly. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post the link directly but I can PM it to anyone who is interested. There are all sorts of reasons as to why the PCN may be...

Yep, done that and he says they are all universal fit. Off to try Euro Parts............... Edit: Looks like I'll have to fork out for the MB ones - Euro Car Parts are out of stock (they didn't mention that they were Bosch anyway) and I've had no luck Googling for new wiper blades...

Oh Dear ! Thanks for all the advice but I still have problems !! I have taken delivery of the retro fit Aero blades as mentioned earlier on in this thread, but the clip on the new wiper is too narrow for the arm of the S Class :mad: Are there any W140 owners that have replaced their wiper...

Sure did :) I'm not a lover of Ebay but as SilverSaloon has used this one I've taken a punt !

Thanks for the help fellas - I found a parked up S-Class and measured the wipers, you were correct ! 24" & 28" Aerotwins winding their way to me as we "speak" :)

I've searched for W140 but alas no joy. I would order the 24" and 28" but to quote below: It's the "believe" bit I'm worried about - can anybody confirm these sizes :confused: I would measure them myself bus as previously mentioned, I'm away on a training course - no car :mad:. Thanks...

Just had a look - they do not cater for the W140 S Class :mad: I will try the MB link - thanks for the info.

Hi all - serial lurker here, only one previous thread, but I have a flick through the forums almost daily, very informative to say the least ! On to my problem - I urgently need some new wiper blades for the car [1998 W140 S320 :rock: ] but due to work commitments I'm unable to visit any...
