Last tuesday I took my car in to have the Air-con regassed with the intention of having plenty of dye added so that I stand a chance of finding out where it is loosing the gas (It has taken about 7 weeks to leak out in the past). Prior to taking it in I replaced the receiver / dryer myself, I...

Cant believe it. I have had soft tops for approx 25 years and never had this happen. If I ever lower one in the cold, then I have always religiously made sure the interior is red hot so the windows are nice are bendy. The Roof has been down for months while the car is stored but I had to move...

Hi, my driver's mat has circular female fixings built in to stop it floating around but the male posts in the carpet are not there. Looks to me like they have been snapped off in the past. Anyone know if these can be replaced? Thanks

So, A few weeks ago a driving home late one evening, weather was very bad and to cut a potentially long story short, coming out of a hair pin bend slowly and sensibly (no, really, going very slowly at the time), the back of the car stepped out and starting weaving around madly. Once I got it...

Yesterday my C Class was recovered to my local MB dealer because of a grinding/grating noise emanating from the front off-side. The reason for the noise was the lower spring cup being in contact with the wheel. The photos show one shot of the near side (with separation between the spring cup and...

To cut a long story short some unusual resonances and a gear lever that was moving more than it had previously led me to believe I might had had a damaged engine mount. The local garage stuck in on a ramp and we had a peer and right enough the passenger side mount appeared to have collapsed...

My E55 wagon has a couple of broken handles in the load area, which means I can only get the rear seats up with a screwdriver currently. I've found a part no - A2116801984, it's about 30quid at the dealer. Anyone have any info on how to pull the load area seats apart to get it fitted? The...

Hi This is my first post on here and it is with sadness that I ask for advice. I took delivery of my new SLK 250 CDi AMG sport at the end if July. I love the car and everything was going well. Palladium silver, crystal grey leather, panoramic roof:D. Unfortunately after 8 weeks the bubble...

Hi all, I am new to here. I have just bought a used 2006 year's B200 Tubro, the centre console panel and air vent are broken. From the picture below you can see the centre console panel has serious scratches and the bottom corner of the air vent has a crack. I am thinking to install a new audio...

Hi folks Ive damaged my key fob on my c class 03 plate. It's the three button fob. How do I go about getting a new one. Seen some on eBay but I think I've damaged the chip inside as it won't open cars so don't think a eBay new case will fix my problem. Any advise Cheers

So, I've had the little coil light come on and stay on for longer than normal recently so I thought I should change the glow plugs - they we're due a change anyway. I took the engine cover off, and worked from the back of the engine to front as I remember that plug number 5 (closest to the...

My CLK was in for it's MOT yesterday. I thought it would fail on the obligatory front ball joint (1 is a little loose), but it didn't. The examiner gave me about 3" of rear spring and said that was all that was wrong with it. 2 questions. 1. The MB one lasted 75k so should I just go back to...

Hi folks. Well today, whilst out for a leisurely drive, a stone hit my sunroof glass as it was in the tiled position, and it smashed. Made an almighty bang when it went. I presume I can "just" get the glass replaced? Is this a job for MB (pants down) or any other ideas? Thanks

Hi Folkes, I'm a newbie and would be very grateful for some advice. My parking brake foot pedal on my 2003 clk200 with manual gearbox has gone limp after i pressed the pedal too hard accompanied by a loud thud noise! Now when i depress the foot brake pedal there is no resistance and it...
