Hi all,

Hi all

I'm guessing this is a linkage issue but would appreciate the reassurance...
My 1990 W124 200E accelerates more rapidly with the pedal pressed to approx 3\4 maximum. Pressing the pedal fully down reduces the acceleration by a noticeable, but not massive degree.
All is running well, good...
Hi folks,
At 60mph my gal is doing around 3400rpm and would love another gear. I don't think there is another in the transmission but wanted to post in case I'm missing a trick?
Many thanks.
Cleggy.
Help ! My car seems to be bunny hoping and I can't work out why, it's as though it can't find a gear sometimes. I have changed the spark plugs ht leads and ignition coil, the gear box fluid seems to be a correct level. Really need some help or a brilliant mechanic in Manchester area before the...
Apologies, I guess this is primary school stuff but brakes are not really my thing.
Braking at slow speeds, for example when manouevering, causes quite a squeal from my brakes. Can't tell which wheel, it may be one or all of them.
How do I sort this out please, with common DIY tools if...

Is this a simple job for someone with reasonable tools/knowledge? As I recall it wasn't so simple on my...
Hello guys,
I have come to a "conclusion" to that problem.
My old W124, now a very good friend of mine has it, will not start in cold weather.
As mentioned to an old post on here thought it was the HT leads or Distributor cap... etc?
A reminder of the problem is that it will turn but not fire...
