c250d

Hi Everyone, I am new here and have really enjoyed reading your forums. Now that I need some advice from you I have decided to join. I am trying to make a decision between these cars and perhaps you can steer me in the right direction. The first car which I guess appeals to me the most is the...

Hi A friend had brake failure on his C250 (think it is the 202 model) turns out the rear brake pipe has fractured near the centre at the rear axle, under a mounting clip (looks like it has been kinked at some point) The pipe then leads over the plastic saddle fuel tank and forward. Looks like a...

Hi there all, I replaced my middle and centre silencers with a s/steel catback system from powerflow. I got a straight through I.e. it has no centre silencer but am now regretting it as it is too damn loud. I did this as the centre silencer was too hard to hold of a replacement centre...

Car started making a horrible scraping noise a few weeks ago and traced it to the front drivers side wheel The disc was really hot that side, so I thought must be brakes. Removed the caliper and it was pretty much seized, so I replaced it with a new one about 10 days ago Yesterday it started...

I just got a new caliper for the front drivers side on my C250 The problem I have is the bolt for the wear sensor is in completely the wrong place The auto factors where I got it from say that the only other caliper listed for my car is a different type entirely I have added some photos to...

My car has been having problems starting lately I took the car to my brothers house the other night and it was parked facing downhill and it started first time Had loads of trouble starting it again today on my drive which is level, but then drove into town and parked it facing uphill, and...

Does anyone know how to check the fault codes on a C250D W202 1995 model. My autodata CD seems to imply you can do it with a switch and a LED connected across some of the DLC pins, but this method seems not to work :( I am in High Wycombe, is anyone nearby who can read the fault codes...

When you start it from cold it is fine, then at 60 degrees C suddenly there is a clonk from the injection pump and it suddenly runs real rough and smokey. Gets a bit better as it warms up. But really knocks over 3000rpm I can only assume something is throwing the timing out. I can't really see...

Hi all. My beloved C250D 1995, which has done 92k miles has always run a little rough between 2 and 300rpm. It has recently got much worse and barely runs at those revs. It misfires irregularly very badly and poors smoke out. At idle and other revs and even on full accelaration, it behaves...

Hello I have recently aquired a 1996 c250d. Saloon I thought I should give it a service so bought set of filters. I am slightly confused by the fuel filter which a plastic gauze tower about 2.5 inches high and 1/2 an inch in diameter. Where does this fit? Is there another more traditional fuel...

Hello My c250d looks to have the original cassette / radio. What is the procedure for removal. There are no holes on the front for removal keys so I am a bit stumped. Do I have to remove the heater fascia/controls? Many thanks.

Hi all, C250D is finally (almost:rolleyes:) back on the road - {History: refurb head, injectors, new glow plugs, de-glazed bores, new piston rings, fuel timing re-set to 12 degrees ATDC, factory setting 14 degrees ATDC} Engine is all back together and running sweet, re-timed fuel injection...

Ive had my C250D for 2 years and its been great up until last month. Its a '98 non turbo, 5 cylinder diesel. I began to have trouble with air in the fuel. After the car sat overnight I had to crank the starter continuously to purge the air out of the system before it would start. I changed...

C250D - 1994 patchy rust Hi all, Most of the internals are now done in terms of having a reliable dual fuel car which can function without issue 365 days of the year. This now leaves the ageing bodywork to be tackled which as the following pics show is in poor shape. My intention was to...

Mercedes C250D Elegence 1994 , given me 2 years of excellent service. Suddenly one morning it wont start and only starts when battery is nearly flat, needs good cranking for 5-10 mins, the engine tries to kick-in but fails to start (sounds like its not getting enough fuel). Sometimes the engine...
