I run an A207 E350. I was after some advice on brake pads. I'm looking for more bite and a slightly better pedal. Has anyone switched from oem pads and noticed an improvement. The car stops no question but sometimes I find myself having to rethink the amount of pressure I'm putting on the brake...

Ok so hopefully not too much ridicule. I am looking for some constructive advice on my next vehicle. I currently have an A207 350cdi. Great to look at but dull as dishwater to drive. It did what it was bought to do and got the family down to the south of France and was fun whilst there. Mrs has...

I'm looking for advice. On the test drive of my E350 cab I obviously wanted to test the hood functioned as it should so operated said hood and all the windows. I was unaware that the car had been sat a little while and what must have been grit or sand or something similar had built up on the...

I have dropped my E350 cab with HR springs. Stance is great car looks cool and generally drives well. However if I hit a dip/yump in the road the car will almost take off. I'm assuming I could do with a slightly firmer shock to go with the springs. I don't want the car to knock all my fillings...

Is anyone arranging meets on route yet. I'm coming along the south coast. Anyone coming my way?

I have an E350 cab and need to create a little more luggage space for the summer trip with the family. Has anyone on here had any experience with the boot bags that strap to your boot lid? Alternatively has anyone fitted a boot rack to an E350 cab? The boot bag seems the most flexible option...

Has anyone had any issues with arch clearance after fitting H&R springs? I did a bit of research prior to ordering said springs and the general thread seemed the that they provided quite a gentle drop of say 1". So I ordered them along with some after market alloys as my originals had been...

Can anyone recommend a good wheel refurbishment company. I am based in East Sussex. I am looking to have one wheel straightened and the full set painted and laser cut. All suggestions welcome.

Can anyone on here point me in the right direction for a company that can provide a tailored luggage set for an E350 Cab. I believe CKS sold something for a little while but they are now sold out.

I have recently purchased an E350 cab in white with 19" wheels. The previous owner appears to have a coming together with some pot holes so I have inherited two slightly buckled wheels. All repairable I'm pleased to say. But I have been asked what colour I would like my wheels after the repair...

Ok so I've upgraded the old silver w203 320cdi to a white e350 cab 265bhp. Love the car but it feels a little sluggish compared to the c class. I had the previous car mapped by Celtic tuning via Olly at PCS. I'm now looking for the same for the "E". So my question is who has had theirs done and...

:wallbash::confused:I have posted numerous items regarding my on going engine management light issues. I have to re-cap so far changed the following: Glow plug control relay Glow plug number six New rubber seal to turbo intake Boost pressure switch All of which Merc have identified with STAR...

I have been informed that I can have the auto box on my c320 cdi remapped to improve shift speeds etc. Does anyone have any experience of this any thoughts/advise appreciated.

:(Here we go again. So I have had a variety of codes. So far indie has replaced the glow plug control unit. Merc have replaced the two orange seals on the intake pipe to turbo. Now I have this code "P0238". Im seriously thinking of selling and going back to BMW which is a shame because I love...

Well I thought I'd cracked the 2553 error code but its back. Mercedes have had the car three times now and cant tell me what it is. Each time it goes in it shows a generic historic code and they cant find a fault. Any help would be great as Im getting fed up on diving into merc every time the...

I have a w203 320 cdi. It has been mapped. I am experiencing a throttle delay when trying to pull away quickly. It also jerks at low speed when in traffic intermitantly. If I drop the throttle and the car needs to change down nothing happens for a few seconds. Then a cloud of smoke that I can...

Error message p2553 Throttle/fuel inhibit circuit range/performance. Can anyone shed any light on what this might be?

I recently took my w203 c320 cdi down to cornwall with the Mrs and kids. During which every time we did a long run then a brief stop and restart the engine management light would come on when we restarted. The car seemed to drive ok but smoke more under acceleration. If we stopped left the car...
