211

Hey all... I have a client after some cast alloy wheels for his e320. He is not fussed about forged wheels etc but would like something a little interesting. Most of the stuff we have done before has been custom ordered forged made to measure. Any recommends or phots of cast aftermarket...

My Dad's 2007 E class (200K, in Malaysia) has these warnings: run flat tyre indicator inoperative ESP inoperative local MB garage says it needs a new sensor or chip, and wants £350 just for the sensor/chip unfortunately Dad didn't ask for part number, and STAR diagnostic was done a few weeks...

Last week I had my rear discs and pads replaced (on my 2003 E320 CDi) at a tyre service depot. Since then the pads are permanently rubbing against the discs. The discs are getting hot on any journey over a few miles and the fuel consumption has nose dived - unsurprisingly. When I returned the...

I need a DVD Nav drive asap. Anyone know where I can get one from, other than Ebay ????

Just been to the lads at Star Commercial in Moorends Doncaster who think the reason my Command and Sat Nav issue is down to the Navigation Processor / drive. No specific fault on the STAR but having had some of these fail before, they believe a new one will rectify the Sat nav thinking its in...

hi there i am a taxi driver my previous car was a 210 i connected my meter pulse to a green and black wire in the passenger sill on the new car i am told i cant do that does anyone know where i can take a pulse from on the 08

Today my 211 went in for theObsidianblack paint to be corrected. I bought this car recently from Germany & being black showed light swirl marks all over, more prominent on the bonnet. Probably if it had been silver they may not have been so noticeable but the black shows them. I used a claybar...

Is the area above it (i.e. denoting parking light, Auto, side and main lights) supposed to be illuminated? Thanks.

Had a set fitted the other day to replace the very worn P Zeros I bought 18k or so miles ago. Rears were shot, fronts badly enough worn to tramline annoyingly. The P7's are supposed to be very quiet and I can confirm they are. Barrelling down the M40 yesterday I noticed wind rustle from the...

ECP only list one Sachs front shock for all 211's whilst MB have a specific variant for the sport. Given the current ones are likely very tired at 126k miles so I'm reasoning that anything new must be better, what's the jury's verdict on new OE v the (much cheaper) Sachs aftermarket equivalent?

I have just purchased an 03 plate E-Class and it doesn't appear to have the socket under the armrest for a phone. Although it does have the TEL buttonon the stereo. My previous C Classes had this and I thought it was standard. I used to take the phone cradle out and put a bluetooth module in...

Got a call at 09:30 this morning from my Wife; 'I've been hit'. Our E240 Estate looks rather sick as it was brutally attacked by an Audi A7 whilst my Wife was minding her own business in stationary traffic; clearly the Audi driver was not paying much attention to the road as otherwise he...

I've searched this and didn't find any info so thought i'd start a thread which may be useful to others. I miss driving a 211 because of the 2 part visor which is excellent when your constantly changing angles and in most other cars you only have the one visor to flip back and forth. I...

2004 E500. When switching the headlights on (manually, not auto), I sometimes get a 'dipped headlight failure' message on the dash, when the lights are fine. If this happens at the start of a long journey, I'd have to start over to eliminate the warning. Yesterday, this happened on a short...

I am selling the b MERCEDES-BENZ BLUETOOTH HANDSFREE MOBILE PHONE CRADLE that I have been using in my 2005 and 2007 E class saloons. It fits in to the prewire section in the FCA. It is in perfect working order with no issues or damage. Car is being sold so I will not be needing the module...

I am in the process of buying a 2007 211 from Germany & the car will be transported to Kyrgyzstan by rail, it may take a week or 10days. The car has air suspension. Question is, will the suspension remain “active” during the train journey. I did read somewhere years ago about an S class left...

My 211 has of late become a bit tired feeling with regard to the front suspenion . The car as covered 126000 miles . Theres a slight knocking noise , though its more of a feeling than a noise , when I go over speed bumps or on uneven country roads . also on motor ways it feels a little vauge...

E270 Thinking of adding a seperate gearbox oil cooler, anyone one done one before?????

As it says. I must have changed the fuel filter six times since I got the car. Same procedure every time. Pre-fill new filter. Pull off clips and fit new filter. Never had starting probs before but now it takes a few cranks before it fires. Once it's running you wouldn't know anything was...
