    Bad gearbox mount???

    Hey guys, Last year when I first got my CLK, I had to have both of the engine mounts replaced, however, the gearbox mount was not. What would the symptoms be if my gearbox mount was shot? Also, is it normal for the front of the car to twitch slightly when the engine is fired up? Thanks, G

    Bad day on the road

    Spent best part of seven hours behind the wheel of the Merc yesterday - four motorways, the A34 and a few B roads. God, UK roads are appalling, even without the potholes, and the Merc being a Sport shuddered my body at every bump, drain, undulation, ridge etc etc. Felt like I'd been in a tumble...

    MBSCA-Shopen BAD SC buying experience.

    I don't normally do this, but I hate being lied to and ignored. Before Xmas I was shopping round for the 3.2 AMG side badges in the same style as the C63. I tried all the usual places ebay, mercparts etc, but couldn't find any. However then another forum member pointed out that MBSCA-Shopen a...

    Bad weather and no lighting

    Hello all. Not sure about you guys, but I really hate the misuse of lights. My gripes are as follows. 1. Rain / snow + silver (or similar colour car) and no lights, so not visible, and I cannot judge their speed. 2. Fog lights when it's not foggy, and sometimes NO CLUE that the fog lights...

    How Bad are W220 S-Class halogen headlights?

    Dear Sirs, I wonder if some fellow S-Class owners could comment on headlight performance.

Its not that they arent very good, they are shocking!!:eek: I've been fiddling and cant...

    ML63 - How bad is not getting it serviced past the service reminder

    Hi, How bad is it for an ML63 not to be serviced 150 days past when its saying it should be serviced? I am assuming "Service E" stands for emergency :). I could really do with chancing it to about 200 days. But if that is a really bad idea please let me know :doh:. Thanks.
