Good evening everyone,
This is my first post as I have just bought my first Mercedes! :D
I have got a 1982 W123 200 Petrol model as a project, It doesnt have an engine or gearbox but is otherwise complete and very solid.
I was looking at putting the 6 cylinder engine out of the 280 model in...
Mercedes E280 W124 estate auto 7 seat with long MOT Blue metallic/cream cloth | eBay
Worth £800?
If it was a diesel, certainly yes, but still not a bad thing and worth what these days?
Just brought the 124 back from Italy. Ran perfectly all the way. 1,000 miles with just stops for fuel. However now when hot the idle hunts from about 600-1000rpm but not all the time. Found a previous thread suggesting the egr valve but not sure where to find this or if it has one. In the past 4...
Hi everyone, I have just taken the decision to move from a BMW to my first MB after 31 years of motoring. The car has had 2 owners and has a full MB service history. Firstly, hello. Secondly can anyone give me some background on the model. IE what is MPG like ? Does the sat Nav need any...
Hi All,
I bought a rear screen from a chap a few weeks ago for a 116.
The donor car has to be moved within a couple of weeks or be scrapped. The screen was to be fitted to the donor car, but the owner passed way.
I was in a hurry at the time and not feeling at my best - it was also...
help - my 7 year old 100k miles 280 CDI estate keeps cutting out for no apparent reason. It also has rev surges although the two do not necessarily happen at the same time. Once the car has stopped it restarts immediately.
Hey all, I'm new here so please bear with me. I just got a 2009 CLK 280, which has a built-in phone dialing pad and phone buttons in the audio system panel, as well as in the steering wheel. There is no phone cradle or even a connecting socket for a cradle in the middle armrest compartment or...

Hi All,
I collected a w123 280CE today, it ran very well at up to 85 mph for over an hour down the M6.
As soon as I hit slow progress, the temperature zoomed up towards 120. The cab air blew hot until the temperature rose rapidly when it blew cold, this despite the fan being on full hot...
Guys
I had rust on the arches of my Merc but I gave it to paint shop and they fixed it that was 5 months ago but it's coming back, what should I do?
Cheers

I've owned this car for over a year, and had noticed that the service due/overdue indicator on the dash had been advancing in two day increments instead of one. But I've just noticed, having done a 7 mile journey in 14 minutes, that the car says I've done 14 miles in 28 minutes! Obviously this...

It's also looks like this harness needs to come off
Finally not sure how these glow plug caps come off, do they...
Hi all.
I live in Amsterdam now after many Mercs in the UK (r129's and w123's plus modern ones) so have a car choice some will be unfamiliar with being lucky enough to be out the UK and have the choice of LHD GLK's.
However, engines are the same and both seem to have their issues; I'm torn...
