bonnet

As above when closed the end of the bonnet on driver's side by the lights sits up a fraction. I can push it down but it spring s back up. Before messing it up I thought I would ask for any pointers please. Thanks

As above. I need a new pad fitting in my 129. Question is, who's best to do this. I'm not sure how it's done. Eg, is the bonnet taken off to do the job or is it done in situ. Depending how the job should be done, I'm wondering if it would be better (and maybe cheaper?) getting a detailer...

Evening All So I've had my first Merc a week and I've done little bits here and there. Moving on to the next steps I want to change the bonnet badge, centre caps and maybe an Amg badge on the boot but I want to know if anyone has any thoughts ideas of where to get them apart from the oblivious...

W204 Saloon. When I pull the red bonnet release lever the bonnet lifts slightly. It doesn't raise the full way, but you can squeeze your hand in and reach the latch under the bonnet but when you pull it and try to lift the bonnet it seems stuck on the passengers side somewhere. I wasn't...

ok guys so I'm being a bit picky here. The front slam panel on my W203 coupe was replaced at some time in the past & was a little scruffy, so after looking on fleabay decided it was easier & cheaper to remove & respray. My slam panel is & was just in black colour yet I notice that some on E...

Hi, I need certainly two of the above, I could probably get away without the tailgate. Cheers, Paul

Just wondered if there are variants of the bonnet star apart from pre-facelift ones with a plain base & the later ones with the blue laurel wreath. I need one for my W210 and was trawling the 'bay, not really sure which one to get. I'm resisting buying a genuine one as it will probably get...

Hi all I'm looking to replace the stonechipped bonnet on my ML270. Does anyone know if the bonnet that was used on the AMG and special edition versions fits? It had two ridges running up it but the front end looks the same, shape wise, as the standard bonnet. If I can track one down in silver...

Hello... I have a 2003 vaneo and I'm having difficulty opening the bonnet. The release catch seems to have resistance when I pull it.. But previously it has taken me a good 20 mins to get it released now it's not happening at all. Any ideas. Much appreciated Janine

Hello, This is the third star emblem I have had ripped off my car and I can't catch the fecker. Can anyone suggest how to get a flat blue silver badge. My mercedes dealer says there is not one listed for the car. I have looked on flee bay but they are all black and silver or amg. As...

Simples - just have both: Should be in Bodywork - my bad.

Ordered a new under-bonnet insulation sheet from wunderpartz. Do I need a special adhesive for this or is there something I can buy off the shelf from somewhere like Wickes or Halfords to do the job? Cheers!

Evening all, not been on for a while - mostly cos my car's been laid up for a year while I've been using my van. And now I think I'm going to be paying the price - can't open the bonnet, broke the cable pull under the dash and even then pulling with mole grips isn't working. Any advice as to...

Pull the red handle and nothing. I can sort of reach under and feel cable still attached but its not tight by any means. Assuming its either snapped or come loose at the far end? Any ideas for:- 1. Getting bonnet open temporarily. 2. Fixing this.

Hi all When cleaning my car I caught the plastic handle you pull to enable you to open the bonnet (not the bonnet release inside car). It snapped the plastic so wondering if there is a replacement for the plastic pull handle or I need to replace the whole unit. Anyone know part number...

Hi I am possibly looking for a W209 bonnet in Tellurite silver Thanx Dex De

Popped the bonnet today to change my badge and couldn't get the bonnet warning light to go off. Took about 10 good slams to get rid of the warning. Is this a common fault or do I just need some more weetabix. Bonnet was securely shut and the light was on. Still under warranty so not a problem...

Hi everyone,new to this forum. I have a small problem in that the "bonnet open indicator" on the dashboard is more or less permanently on. Had a quick look under the bonnet for a micro switch to adjust but nothing obvious. Any ideas? Tom

Just after a front bumper, bonnet and grill for my 2005 CLK In Silver!
