The car for you! Mercedes-Benz 500 SE FULLY ARMOURED AND BOMBPROOF 5.0 1985 Bulletproof and bombproof. If only i had room for one!

God I had a good look at my c230 kompressor coupe today a saw the paint bubbling on every arch and corner of arch near light. I looks **** on a great car so now its time to do a bit of sanding and painting but the paint is code 685 sunburst yellow? but its also coming up with yellow stone? Going...

Could do with little advice if anybody could spare some... Have test driven and fallen in love with an '04 C180K, looks very clean and has clearly been well loved throughout its 73k miles including a full house of Merc stamps in the service book. Is there anything i should know?... like don't...

Has anyone had problems with the 250 cdi auto . I feel it is very flat pulling away and needs high revs to go . Are they all the same or have i got a problem?:dk:

After getting my brake pads changed and poly V belt replaced by Alf203 yesterday the car was struggling to start today. I plugged in the OBD and low and behold the glowplug controller module seems to have gone. If its not covered by MB warranty Terry here I come.

One of the replacement options for our E240 is an E280 petrol with the 7g gearbox that I've read so much about. Surely they can't all be lemons as Merc use this box across pretty much the entire range, so who can tell me the good points about (and their wonderful experiences with) this...

I have now clocked up just over 5000 miles in the 2 months since getting my new SLK and the fuel Economy is really surprising me. This morning after a fill up I reset the computer and managed to get this on the way to work: That's a mix of nice steady 65-70 Motorway and then half...

I'm was looking to update my trusty V plate W210 3.0TD. by about 5-6 years. The mechanic who has looked after my Mercs for years tells me the 211 is very unreliable, and that lots of 320 diesels came in for injectors after 70k and they have all sorts of expensive and irritating problems. He...

So the clk (CLK200, facelift 2000 reg), has started making a strange noise, it sounds like its coming from the belt area... Anyone got any idea what it could be? Mercedes clk 200 engine rattle - YouTube

Hi Folks, I just joined this forum as it has some great info !!!! I have had an E270 CDi estate 54 plate for a couple of weeks now, all was fine till Thursday when there was a bang ( sounded like a petrol engine backfire ), I rang a merc indy about ten miles away and he said sounds like a hose...

eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace They don't look too bad in the snaps.

:crazy: I would like to warn anyone on this forum about ebay seller Prayers8 I arranged to buy 'cash on collection' a set of Brabus wheels from him, when I asked for his address he told me that he had sold the wheels to someone else. I have since found out that he has done this to another forum...

Hi Guys, I have a 53 plate C180K estate and the rear tyres are both worn right down on the inside. The rest of the tread is OK, its almost like it is only rolling on 10% of the tyre. I would say they have not done much more than 10K. I have a number of bushes replaced last year. As you look...

Hey guys, when I bought my car it was probably sitting on a farm for a little while. I've gotten my suspension checked out and everything seems in check and replaced a few parts. I've still got a harsh ride, and recently done a wheel alignment. About 60g and 50g were put on the rear tyres...

i know this is a bit of an obscure question, humour me if at all possible please. :) if the police received a report of bad driving, but not dangerous/life threatening nor high speed, would they act on it? no CCTV in the area where it occurred but possibly more than 1 witness to the event. it...

Hi guy, I hope somebody can help, I have installed a pioneer D/din sat nab system and the radio reception is terrible FM and AM. I have tried all types of aerial adaptors but none seem to help. I did remove the interior light and noticed a black box bolted in the metal above the windscreen with...

Hi, my brothers 51 plate c180 advantguard 2.0 manual isnt running very well, sometimes revs fluctuate at idle and he says its stalled twice on full steering lock, got 3 codes on a cheap reader, p010x, p011x and p030x i think 1 is maf, which he unplugged to check last week, another a miss...
