4x4

Is the new ML (166) the first 4X4 to be able to parallel park itself (active parking assist)? I know Lexus came out with the tech first, albeit with teething problems and took ages to park but I believe the new ML is the first 4X4 to have it as an option.

Does anyone know how easy it is to fit a second alternator to a Vario (4.2L)? Thanks Ian

Hi, have looked all over but can't seem to cross reference this part number for application. It's 901 280 90 03 . It's a transfer case for a sprinter 4x4 but I need to know the specifiication and what models it fits. I can find different model numbers but not this. There is also number of 750...

Anybody done one? Thinking about getting Mrs Janner a voucher for Christmas.

Right, with the various rumours goign around that we'll experience another winter of snow and ice I don't want to feck up the 19 inch black multispoke wheels on my AMG. So the options are a set of non OEM wheels plus winter tyres for around £1000 or try to find a reliable secondhand 4x4 for the...

i need to buy a 4x4 for practical purposes i dont really have much experience in this market so am looking for advice on my fave motoring forum i guess the Ml will be out of range(more to do with costs rather than purchasing i suspect ) initial thoughts are hyundai santa fe or perhaps an older...

Hi all Anyone got a cheap as chips 4x4 for sale? Need to get around my sites and service my clients, bit sad that I sold the Navara now :wallbash: Really needs to be automatic unless super cheap.

A friend of mine today was at a local sunday market and saw this mercedes. And thought he would share his eye staining horror!! By texting me a photo of what he saw..... Behold the 190e 4x4...................... what more can i say (a picture says a thousand words...?)

Hi, Would welcome the advice of anyone with experience on this. Am interested in acquiring a 4 wheel drive estate car for sure-footed use in the winter snows on the ungritted roads where we live, but don't want an off roader (ML/GL etc) - since the demise of the E class 4-matic W124 estate, is...

Ok, so why are "all wheel drive" cars called 4x4?

I'm thinking about getting a 2007 ML350 - Canadian Spec - and when I popped the VIN of a few cars I was interested in into the Russian MB VIN decoder this appeared and is now confusing me a bit. 840elimination of all-wheel drive 4 x 2 (for cross-country vehicles only) dark tinted glass (с...

I have been looking at buying one as some of my jobs are up in the mountains and the W124 isn't up to it. Only want to spend a couple of grand and the searches keep coming back to Toyota Surfs. Age is pretty much irrelavent. Anyone have experiences of these or should I stay well away?

Hi After our recent accident, I have to face the realistic possibility that my car may still get written off. As i am struggling to find another E500 that has anything near the specification of mine, I am looking at alternatives and I have decided that I quite fancy a 4x4. My ideal...

Can anyone recommend a website that reviews 4x4 tyres? I'm struggling to find something suitable using Google. I'm looking for tyres for my father's Hyundai Tucson. It's a soft-roader that is used on flat muddy fields, steep wet and sometimes icy lanes, but not heavy off-roading. Any tyres...

Came across this video of some big 4x4's in Iceland on the wall street journal online site . http://www.autoblog.nl/archive/2008/05/06/suv-in-ijsland-een-must-geen-mode#post-14544 Well there was a lot of white light and big 4x4s!:rolleyes: It reminded me of the Jeremy Clarkson trip to...

Right, after todays drive to work I have to get this off my chest. If anyone knows Barnet/Cockfosters/Cuffley area you’ll know that the stereotypical 4x4 owner (female, yummy mummy :devil: , rich etc etc) lives here. This morning I was taking my normal route to work which at one point...

Spotted this earlier in the week: I believe M-B have dropped the 4x4 Vito in the UK ... all references to it have been removed from the current range brochure. Not keen on the comedy ride height though: Some folks I knew in the UK had a 4x4 Sprinter (special order) until...
