My mirror indicator strip was cracked under the care of the first owner and now has unpleasant green growths within the lens.
I have spent about 2 hours trolling through youtube and this site trying to find out how to disassemble the plastic outer housing to allow the replacement of the...
Afternoon all
Im looking for a replacement for my current 9-5 Aero and looking at the W210 or W211 in estate form. Now I only do around 6 or 7,000mls per year so naturally I am looking at petrols but they are so thin on the ground compared to diesels I wondered if I could consider one but my...
I hope this isn't a stupid question, but which engine version of the V6 CDI (320 or 280) would produce better performance results after remapping? Am I right in thinking that the engines are the same, and the 320 is a remapped version? If so, have I nearly answered my own question in that it...
Afternoon all. So I am in the process of sorting out a couple of Raspberry PIs to act as 1) Bluetooth audio receiver (my car doesn't have Bluetooth audio fitted) and 2) An in-car media centre - wifi based so the kids can stream movies from the PI to their iPads on long journeys.
I have a...
Anyone able to advise the best place to get a sensibly priced replacement? Unfortunately, I had some bad news at hospital today and then managed to reverse on to the end of a fence and smash the lense on my saloon's off-side rear. :(
Is the facelift compatible with pre-facelift clusters? Are...

Wanted the little air tanks that attach to the rear suspension airbag units,
I managed to repair the n/s but the o/s is badly corroded .
Any condition will do
Thanks in advance

I know this might sound a bit weird, but I've noticed that the paintwork finish on the wings of my 211 feels different to the rest of the car.
It looks them same as the rest of the vehicle, but just doesn't feel as smooth, even when coated in several layers of wax. Might this indicate that...
Thanks to Ollie and the crew at PCS - "Eddie" went in for some TLC last week, including an ATF change and Celtic Remap.
I don't have the certificate yet, so I don't know precisely what gains I have on the car, but it feels absolutely mega. The guidance I got was to expect around 290bhp (from...
Im thinking about E class w211 estate. Which engine would you recommend?
I got BMW 330Ci and love the sound and the power it has. My wife has C180 coupe which if I would know it will be so boring I would get C with bigger engine. The diesel engines are good but never was fan of those...
Oh holiday at the moment and my little girl has just managed to drop the one remaining key for the 211 into the swimming pool....... Groan.
It was in for 5-10 mins (not exactly sure exactly how long). I have now retrieved it and dismantled it in an effort to let it dry out.
I don't need...
Hello to all.
I have just purchased my first sprinter, seemed like a great deal. One owner and just 40,000 miles on a 2000 211CDI. Looks and mostly drives fantastic.
Has an odd and annoyingly intermittent fault. On a seemingly entirely random basis, it looses power and will not rev past...
Just wanted to share something with the forum that happened in our workshop today.
Whilst carrying out the brake bleeding procedure on a W211 saloon ( after SBC pump replacement ), a brake line blew out !!!!!
Rusty brake lines are well known/ documented issue on 211's but this was a first for...
Hi, been looking into my options for refreshing the dampers on my 211 and wondered if someone can confirm that the rear dampers are definitely conventional, non-electric ones.
When I bought I read all about the air suspension and variable damping but having dug a bit more it might be that the...
Guys
I have just got a 211 sport estate. The chrome exhaust tips are pitted and horrible. I found a bolt under the exhaust and removed it but the tip didnt seem to want to budge.
Is there a way to remove the tips so i can clean them in the warm?
Thanks
