250cdi

Hi, my name's Mark and my car has a drinking problem... It all started in November, when I noticed that she'd started knocking back the juice a bit, well to be honest about a quarter of a litre every 100 miles. After some heated 'discussions' in the garage about what the hell she was doing...

Why can't you map both to the same performance ? There's a good 'un to get you started over the New Year period ......... :thumb:

hi all i wondered if anyone can answer a question for me please ? does the W204 CDI have a cold start system ?

Has anyone experience or comments over which is "better". It is for the wife and manual gearbox is a must. She has already decided that the "sensible" petrol is too slow hence diesel. Appreciate it will need a monthly blast to blow the cobwebs off of the DPF. AMG/Sport/125 will the trim level

Hi all 2011 sport model is stalling from cold every morning as drive is selected. Not rushing the process even let then engine run for a minute but as soon as I select drive you feel the gear taking up, and then revs drop and instant stall. Just does it the once and every morning. Once on...

Got a problem with my 3 year old C250 CDI keeps losing water coolant! I have had it repaired once by MB main dealers but it is still loosing water Is this a common fault? Any help would be great.

Have a chance of changing my c180 Se Exec for either a C Class Elegance 250Cdi or a C class coupe 22CDi just wondering what your thought were on choice. elegance comes with everything as standard whilst the Coupe only has the standard kit. Cars or very similar in price and mileage e.t.c...

Afternoon guys, My car is coming up to it's service date / mileage or 5 yr 66k A2 service... Outside of the standard service cost is the Air Filter (£75) and brake fluid cx (£90), I feel like MB are having my eyes out, especially over the air filter... As a Tech by trade (albeit in a...

Since running this car I have noticed two things with regard to the way the engine behaves. The engine temperature sometimes rises to the normal 90c point then drops again down to ~78c for no apparent reason. The car has been into the dealer who say that is correct. Does anyone else...

Dear All, I am contemplating the CLS Shooting Brake to replace my E-Class estate (model 212). Both cars look very similar from the inside but look quite different from the outside. Not too sure about the road handling of the CLS but I will be test driving one shortly. I have no complain about...

As the rear tyres need replacing on my wife's 2012 SLK we decided to fit winter tyres all round. The rear tyre size seems to be unavailable in the UK in a winter tyre. Apart from a Pirelli, but the price at £350@ ish is a lot more than I would like to pay. Is it possible to fit smaller...

I have fitted osram unlimited headlight bulbs. The original bulbs are poor to say the least! How do I adjust the light alignment?

My 2007 E320 is at the dealership awaiting an oxygen sensor and I have a nice new E250cdi hire/courtesy car until the repair is complete. Interestingly since I do the same 50 mile trip in the 2007 320 often enough I know what kind of fuel consumption the bigger and older car achieves and was...

Hi all. I'd appreciate your thoughts. I have a much-loved 2009 E250 cdi coupe, now 4 years old. I really like it, except for the firm sports suspension. Am thinking about getting a facelift model in SE trim, to experience a more comfortable ride. BUT, the SE is only available with the...

Hello all, Here goes my first post.... I'm hoping for some guidance. I've been scouting around for the best PCP deal on a new 13 plate C250CDI Sport Plus Estate - Auto. The best offer to date is £360 month over 48 months with £3k deposit. This includes the Mercedes Service Care...

Anyone own one? Was offered a lease deal £281 +Vat and was very tempted. Cuprite brown was the colour I wanted but never seen it in the flesh. Any options that are a must? Or is the sport guise sufficient? Any help would be great

I collected my new C250CDI AMG Sport Plus this afternoon. There was an element of surprise in this, the dealer has been fairly consistent in being incompetent! Anyway, they did their job in the end, and the car arrived, exactly as ordered and free of any problems.:thumb: No rattles... Its...

I just bought a new (well, almost new) C250 CDI Coupe. I intend to keep the car for a few years (7+) and I do look after my cars. I am new to Mercedes and my previous car was a BMW 120d Sport. I part exchanged the BMW when I got the Mercedes. The ownership experience with BMW has been very...

Came across this rather nice video of a cutaway 250cdi engine in action. Gives a good idea of the twin turbocharger ad rear mounted timing gear and balancer shafts. I'm a sucker for these technical videos. :o ps turn your speakers balance fully to the right to get the English commentary...
