W169 A Class – Halogen Projectors
We’re off to France for a week and I’ve been looking into sorting the headlights before I go. Our car has the halogen projector type lights so it appears that those sticky headlamp reflectors things aren’t appropriate to us – the user manual recommends taking...
I had my first late night drive last night, back from Wakefield to the East Coast.
My first thought was wow these Xenons are amazing, if not set a little high on the near side.......after several flashes from incoming traffic it was obvious they were set too high.
I spent 10 minutes this...
I only need the button in the middle, mine is fully functional except the adjustment switch is missing :(
Buying a whole switch for this piece seems silly. If anybody has a faulty one and wants to sell me just the adjustment button :)
Know this has been asked before as I've seen many posts on the topic, but I still not sure what I'm looking for in the light assembly.
We're taking the ML to Monaco in 3 weeks and need to adjust the projector lamps for European driving. Checking the manual it refers to the lever to switch the...
Hi,
Since I bought my E280 sport (58) the position of the pedals have irritated me. The issueI have is that the brake pedal sits about an inch higher than the accelerator pedal.
Does anybody know if it is possible to adjust the position of the pedals?
Cheers

I've done a search on the forum and the internet and I can find many articles describing adjusting the windows for the closed position. My problem is one of my windows won't open fully.
The left hand door window (passenger side RHD) stops about 25mm above the door top. Where is...
I have W204 C220Cdi 2012, facelift and it appears according to the manual there is no need to alter headlights (halogen) as they are compliant with EU even though dipped to the left. There is no option on the Lighting menu to alter them (as there would be for Xenon).
However, there was a sneaky...
Hi,
Couple weeks ago I bought used 2005 E320 CDi. There were couple problems, but I thought I'll fix it. Dash were showing that left-side mirror turning light is not working. I bought new lense but when I plugged in still not working. I also noticed that the mirror is not adjusting...
My headlamp adjuster on 2005 CLS doesn't appear to make any difference to the beam. Is there any maintenance that needs doing and where is it based? Thanks
Hi Everyone,
Whilst working on the CLK to replace the stepper motor (and therefore centre and drivers side all removed), the steering adjustment for moving the steering columb up or down seems to have stopped working.
I can move the adjustment back and forth but up and down seems to have...
I have put new wheels on my 95 w124 e220 coupe,8x17 225x45 on the front, 9x17 225x45 rear..the front drivers side wheel is rubbing on the cladding,but the passenger side has plenty of room not touching at all..any ideas why? Could it need caster adjustment..also the car has been lowered 40mm all...
Hi all. My W123 is running really rich - spark plugs getting a coal like covering, strong smell of unburnt fuel etc.
I was told the adjustment screw for the fuel was within the circled area highlighted below which would appear to make sense because of the RICH marking, but there is not one in...
Hello all. I have a 1999 SL280 and the trunk lid does not sit correctly. I have to slam it harder in order to close it. It is sitting a little high at the back where it meets the bottom of the roof. Water gets in also when I open the lid especially on the nearside. What is the way to adjust it...
I've got some new headlights a few days ago and it does not seem to have a vertical adjustment screw/knob. The seller says it has a built in leveling motor and it should do it automatically. One of the headlights is pointing really low though and I cant find a way to adjust it. Anyone has any...
a few days ago I replaced my control arms and after went to get a proper alignment... but now I feel my car pulling right... I believe I placed the camber adjustment bolts the wrong way and now camber is not properly set...
should I give any special recomendation to the alignment shop? I...

Hello All,
I get a erratic idle when the car is stationary and sometimes the engine stalls. Today, I had the EML come on and I have had the code read as:
P0745 - Pressure Control Solenoid “A”
P0749 - Pressure Control Solenoid “A” Intermittent
Having done a bit of reading, I see that M272...

Thanks
Hi All
I have an SLK R171 05 plate and the rear quarter window on the passenger side does not meet with the front window when raised..resulting in water coming through the gap.especially when you wash it.
I have tried normalising the windows but the problem persists.
Has anyone...
