Good morning!
I am hoping I might be able to ask for your expertise! I have a 54 plate Mercedes C270 CDI. I bought a bluetooth cradle (advised off MB of Bolton) off ebay. I’ve got an iPhone and I have paired the phone successfully - it can make and receive calls absolutely fine! However, the...
Hi folks, I carried out alot of work to my c270 there. De-flapped the inlet manifold, with stepper motor delete, EGR cleanout and resistor delete, and 2nd cat removed. I took the car on a test spin after, and all seemed great for about 20 miles. Then no boost from turbo, and an exhaust note...
Hi, i have recently noticed a 'new' noise coming from the engine :) . It sounded like the air filter box or the engine cover beeing loose and vibrating. After i realised that the noise is not related to the plastics, i could see the belt flapping and the tensioner moving. My first instict was...
I might be going mad here, but I've become aware of a very subtle vibration through my car.
First noticed it immediately after service and thought it was maybe that the dealer had dropped the pressures on the All Season tyres and I was picking up their extra "coarseness".
However I then...
As above really, found this in the garage while clearing a few things out. Plugs onto fuel rail - easy to fit and remove. £75. Can be P&P'd for a few extra squids, and it probably fits more than just the 203 C-class too, given the 5-potter was used in lots of models.
Thanks, Geoff
Hi i am new to this community but would like some advice on the above i have changed the torque converter to solve the problem but to no avail the next thing i changed was the gearbox still not working the mb star shows that the solenoid for the torque converter lock is not operating in the...

Hi. I am looking for some help.....
I recently had my engine management light come on and the car went into limp mode. I had the codes read and it turned out to be the MAF sensor. I purchased a Pierburg replacemment after reading here that the cheap ebay...
Hi folks, I have a C270 cdi Eleg 90k estate, it randomly wobbles or shakes from the nsf when doing between 50-70. The front passenger always comments that they have just sat in a massage chair.
I cant see any bulge in the tyres, nor play in front wheel bearing, it will get worse if the nsf...
During the last couple of days my C270 CDI has been playing up!
Firstly, it would accelerate as normal through 1st & 2nd, but as it went into 3rd there was no power, no acceleration, it felt as though the turbo had gone to sleep.
This then progressed to the engine not revving over 2500 in any...

tt's time to sell my cars because I'm leaving the country in the near future. First to go is my trusty C Class Estate. I've owned this for over 7 years and never had any major issues with it.
I've advertised it in the usual places - the pistonheads link for the advert is...

I've noticed that the temp on my new purchase takes about 12 miles to get up to 70 deg and about 25 m to get to 80 deg.
I presume that the thermostat is 'sticky' ??
Is this an easy DIY job? :crazy:
cheers
Just about to take on a nearly new C, and the dealer has offered me £4k for mine. So, if anyone wants a clean tidy C270cdi, then this is the spec: Avantgarde SE, and options include five-speed auto with tipfunction, parktronic front and rear, sports suspension, heated front seats, evo sports...
I noticed a slight chuffing yesterday coming from under the bonnet. A closer look with the engine cover off this afternoon revealed No1 injector was letting combustion gas come by. Has been for a while judging by the carbon gunk around it!
So I pulled the injector and withdrew the copper...
Hi everyone.
Well, it is true... I just screwed the gearbox and I need help:
The case: my gearbox, after get in the right temperature, was getting in limb/safe mode when you press the gas hard... Sometimes even slipping to neutral.
So I checked in a mb scanner and it was a sensor in sensor...
Now beginning to wonder if I have bought a dud car , another problem rears its head .
I started to notice exhaust fumes in the cabin ; with no obvious sound of any leaks in the exhaust .
The car sounded fine when standing next to it at idle , although there was a slight 'tick' under...
Seen one of these on the dealers front at £3995 with 85K
Kinda curious if that is a good price?
What are the classic (see what I did there!! :cool:) problems to look for on this? Engines pretty bulletproof?
