behaviour

Hi everyone, So I'm having an issue with my W204 C220 CDI (2011). A few months ago, the engine started to behave strangely. It would hang on to gears way too long and cruise around the 2000 RPM level when doing 30 mph. Usually, turning the engine off and on would fix this and it would be back...

Lovely day in Sunny Harwich, So i took Brutus into work to catch some Ray's, Blooming Paps get everywhere, Got caught in the act ffs:D

Not too sure what happened here but had my 2009 CLS 320 into Mercedes to have the command firmware updating so i can use the latest maps, all good no problems , latest maps installed and working fine, this was around a month ago, stick key in today command turns on gives screen message "SW...

Background: My E63 has hands-free access to the boot, which is achieved by making a kicking motion under the rear of the car and as long as the key is on your person the boot lid will either open or close. I park my car on my drive overnight (garage full of motorcycle, workbench etc.) with...

Hi, ok so on my CL500 The rear drivers corner sinks approx 1 inch when parked on my driveway, my driveway is on a slope and I reverse the car up it when I park. When on level ground it's fine and sits the same as the other three corners so this consistently happens every time it's on my...

Hello to everybody! I’m contacting for a question about my MERCEDES CLK 200 Kompressor Serie W 208 (345) July 1999 (with ca. 186000 km.) Since a couple of months I’ve noted a strange behaviour/ of the Compressor side when the engine of my CLK is warm and reaches the 3500 Rpm When the...

Just an observation really, from my car but, does anyone find that on occasion that their throttle blips are inconsistent? Without fail I get the most insane blip and snap from the exhaust when down changing (MCT) to 4th, 2nd and 1st but, it doesn't always do this in third. I also notice...

Doubly posted. Ready to delete.

Just read a thread in general that made me think. I had the c63 serviced at Bishops stortford a while back now. Just a basic oil, filter, diff fluid change. Me being me I reset the mileage as I pulled up. I was told it would take an hour and a half. I sat in there for close to 3 hours...

Hi all I recently bought a 2009 S211 with 80k on the clock full MBSH and ATF done at 37k. It has the 5 speed auto, which leads me onto my question. When at low speeds, i.e. < 15mph, when taking your foot off the accelerator, should the revs drop back to almost idle (<1k)? Equivalent...

1st post on this forum. 1st Auto car, 1st Merc! (BMW 330 D M Sport remapped before this car) I have comfort and sport mode as standard in these Grand Editions. If i bury my foot, will it change up at the same revs whether its in comfort or sport? I ask as Ive had a remap (above the Brabus box...

Hi all I have recently collected my 2014 c63 estate and my last car was also a c63 estate 2014. My new car will not shift up on the paddles unless I have less than a 1/4 throttle this only happens when the gearbox setting is in C mode S and S+. I swear my last c63 would shift up through the...

Ever since I bought my C200 it has displayed the following odd behaviour. Every so often: - The temperature gauge drops to zero - The engine fan comes on - The heater comes on. If I pull over and switch off the ignition and then switch on again everything returns to normal. This used to...

Hi I am looking for some guidance on a strange air con / heating issue. I have w203 270cdi on a 03 plate. It has the air con with the dual control dials. I recently had a leak repaired and tested and the system worked great ice cold. A couple of weeks ago the fan/blower was making a bit of...

odd... don't think it used to do this... left and right manual climate control doesn't seem to work, left side seems to be some sort of master ? any ideas ? 2009 r171

My 2001 Mercedes C320 Avantgarde 's engine light came on today along with an intermittent problem with the gearbox not changing up on it's own and the throttle hesitating at low rpm. Anyone got any ideas? Regards, Chalpkin.

Hello, I turn off the cabin light facility while the doors open as I don't use it and like to save the battery for the cold start, but once in awhile, when I go into the car, the light is switch on again? I turn it off with the light console above and its fine again for few days, then again...
