    'Summer' tyre thread

    I know a number of people think that in the UK, as we don't have a proper summer, there's no point of fitting 'Summer' tyres, but living in the south, where we get more sunlight, I think I'll be changing out my 'Winters' soon for some 'Summers' as the temps start increasing. What are...

    Postcode and street number issue

    I have had this happen a number of times now, so it's not a freak occurrence and seems to be an issue with Command Sat Nav. So I put in a UK postcode and then go to put street no. in, but it's not one of the drop down options and the number entry is greyed out for manual entry. So you have no...

    TPMS sensors 2014 eClass estate w212

    hello all I have the full TPMS fitted to my estate (built June 2014), even though I didn't order it, and need to order a set of sensors for the winter set. Unfortunately, I didn't realise I had it until after I had the tyres fitted to the alloys, so that was £50 wasted. :doh: So before I spend...

    TPMS now standard fit?

    It appears from my own experience on my eclass estate, that MB are fitting the full TPMS as standard, even though it is an optional extra. Maybe this is old news, but if so, you do wonder why MB still have it as an option. It's a bit of a pain for me, as I've just realised and a couple of...

    Outside temp display on UK cars

    After a quick google it seems that UK cars have the option of displaying outside temp disabled to show kph permanently. Is there any way to override this with Star and enable the option again? If yes, can anyone recommend where to get this done? It's not essential, but I'm used to having...

    18" Winter Alloys arrived today...

    I understand that I need at least 17" wheels to clear the calipers on my E220 estate, so I decided to order some winter alloys that matched exactly the size of my front wheels... These are 8.5x18 et48 and the tyres are 245/40 18's. So I found online that Rial do a set of 5 spoke alloys...

    DI Vessel longevity??

    I have a 11.7l vessel bought in early June. I only use it for final rinse, and until now I have left the cars to dry naturally. However, on last wash I noticed a couple of small water marks. Nothing serious and easily removed. So I checked with meter and it's reading 46ppm now. Looking up...

    Remapping e-class 220 vs 250 Q?

    As far a I can tell the 250 appears to be the same engine as 220 in a different state of tune. Assuming this is correct why do you get different figures for remapping the 220 vs the 250? Surely the end result would be the same. No doubt there's a good reason for this, and I can only conclude...
