    2009 S204 (Estate) Offside boost (intercooler) pipe relacement

    Hi, Has anyone done this, and can advise on how easy a job it is or has anyone come across any videos online? I am being quoted £400 for MB to change it (which sounds extortionate). Also, is it just an air pipe or does it contain oil, the technician said mine is leaking oil...? I would be...

    W204 estate roof bars - help!

    Hi I have bought a pair of genuine roof bars but I'm buggered if I can work out how to fit them correctly! They seem too narrow to span the rails without being positioned very close together? Does anyone know how to properly fit/position these, or even better have an electronic copy/scan...

    W204 (S204) Estate Boot Toolkit

    Ah ok, then I think have it (minus the triangle). I've certainly got the spacesaver spare (although the seller had removed it when I went to look at the car!)

    A car for my son

    I believe Admiral also do this. It sounds daft but TPFT isn't always cheaper than fully comp. See here for more tips getting cheaper insurance

    W204 (S204) Estate Boot Toolkit

    Does anyone know where I can get one of these? I just have an empty foam tray under the carpet. I've trawled eBay and contacted a few breakers but no luck. Can anyone actually tell me what tools should be there? Many thanks.

    Integrated child seats

    So i've just put our two ISOFIX child seats in the back of our new C Class estate (2009). Only to find out that the space left between the seats is smaller than in my Golf....! This is quite a bummer... Does anyone know if you can retro fit the Integrated MB child seats, does it involve...

    Private plates - Yes or No?

    KIG 9111, means nothing to me but may be able to flog it to a vain porsche owner in a few years for a few quid?

    Private plates - Yes or No?

    I've always been a no person myself but my new Merc has a really crappy hard to remember registration so I have found myself tempted by a cheap simpler replacement which would also hide the age. I would avoid any names as I've always found myself thinking people with plates like "Tom 9" or...

    Almost new owner C350

    Congratulations, I am a new owner too. I was very tempted by the c350 cdi. The claimed fuel economy is better than a pre-bluefficiency c220 which is amazing for a 3.0 v6. I settled on a c250 (estate) as the perfect balance between power, engine weight, fuel economy etc. Unfortunately they are...

    Meguiars headlight restoration kit

    I used this kit It takes a drill (preferably with speed adjustment) and a bit of patience. I used this kit on my golf. The lenses looked as though they had been sandblasted, but looked like new by the time I had finished. This particular kit also comes with a UV protectant to help prevent them...
