Had my w204 c220 in for b5 service at staithes garage today they replaced the rear pads and I was advised that my front disks and pads would need replacing in the early part of next year. I'm just going to get it done now rather than wait for the warning light Do I stick with mercedes for £175...

I use a reliable family garage for servicing my C180. On recent services and MoTs no reference was made to the offside brake pipes. However on its MoT last month it failed because of "excessive corrosion" to these pipes. I had them replaced, however I became more uncertain about it. It...

Can anyone suggest a fix for this problem?

Yesterday, I started the car after a local journey, pulled out of a side street into crawling traffic and realised the SBC/Brake Hold function had engaged itself, something I rarely use, unless I had inadvertently done so on this occasion. The brakes were only applied lightly, bringing the car...

I need help. My W211 manufactured 1-2003. Brake pedal going down and dash is red (with beep). Star gives SBC low voltage error and no brak pressuse. Both AGM batterys are new and also alternator is new. We also tested the new SBC units, same problem earlier this summer (I don't remember...

Not using the 116 for a while and already the nearly new discs are rusting. New discs come painted so I would like to repaint them while it is off road. What is the paint or is there anything that will do the job?

CLS 63 C218 (NON PP) Hello, My front brake pads squeak on my CLS 63 and it's beginning to get annoying now so I'm deciding whether to get them replaced, they are not worn but the dealer I purchased the car from put PAGID front pads on the car so not genuine mercedes ones. They tend to squeak...

MB VITO 2006 With Tailgate Anybody taken one of theirs apart?? What makes them blow and create many faults .. I took mine off today as I kept getting the warning bulb on the dash and... my wiring was all coiled up inside the top of the door, this alone will create resistance.. but I just...

I have not driven the MB a great deal in the last few weeks but had noticed a creaking type of noise when applying the brake pedal gently at low speed and again on releasing it and this is now getting louder. It is a very noticeable sound in the cabin but nothing can be heard outside with the...

I'm getting a spurious brake light bulb out warning and a switch over to secondary brake lights. On checking bulbs both fine. Sometimes switching off ignition and switching back on will fix it but only for a short time. The car is a 2007 R 320cdti 4matic. Has anyone any ideas as it is driving me...

Please can a MB Star Benz guru talk me through the correct procedure for bleeding my car? (Navigation of menus and actual procedure) I will be taking all the safety precautions relating to the SBC unit. I am hoping to borrow the MB Star system from a mechanic soon. Thanks in advance Mahussain

So, I have a CLK350 with the sport AMG pack with the AMG 4 pot front calipers and standard rear discs. For a car the weight of a CLK, although an improvement over the standard they still aren't great. I managed to bag a complete set of front and rear SLK55 AMG calipers and discs 6pot front...

Hi I was wondering about the best way of identifying which type of front brake calipers are on my vehicle as I require a couple of dust seals for pistons. I know its a 4 piston caliper and the piston dia. is 44mm but actually finding out the make and part number is proving very elusive. I have...

Hi Guys, I will need to replace discs soon on my CLS 63 AMG but i'm finding it difficult to find decent ones at a good price, Mercedes wants £1117 for a set of 2 discs :wallbash: I found rear discs on Eurocarparts for less than £110 (Pagid) and pads no more than £90 for the front and £66...

Hi All Picked up my first AMG a month ago...went with a polar white saloon with performance pack, amg exhaust, and the 19" multi black alloys. Have had a slight squeal in the brakes since pick up, thought it would settle but hasnt. Gave it back last week to the dealer to have a look...

My car has covered just 25500 miles from new. The front discs have developed furrows all across each disc approx 4 m/m wide. Note these are not lines they are furrows you can see and feel the ripple on the disc surface. As a result the braking efficiency has deteriorated. Mercedes have...

Hi can anyone prove a brake lines schematic for the E270 T model 2003? Brake fluid is leaking from the n/s front just in front of the front door area. Also any advice on the repair, will copper pipe suffice? Any help is greatly appreciated. Mahussain.
