Hi. My workshop can't seem to help on this problem despite changing my booster. My '01 C270 CDI front brakes become wooden with no feel after 2-3 taps (which i normally do to wash off speed before coming to a complete stop and so I don't lock the brakes (a habit from my pre-ABS driving days)...
Started on the road to searching for a decent diesel Mercedes and having never driven one before, and thinking the E would be a wallowing barge but refined and upmarket with it, decided to test one out and see what they are like and then test a C to compare and narrow down my search by...
Hi,
Looking forward to helpful discussions ... IF I buy the C270 CDI I fancy.
Trouble is, I'm getting cold feet!
Are these cars in any way reliable or am I just frightening myself to death reading about all the technical problems I can find?

Hi All,
A newie to your forums.
The battery on my C270 cdi is draining at 1.6 amps and dropping to 800 ma after command fuse is removed. I suspect the car is not going into 'sleep' mode.
Can anybody help me with some pointers to confim this or will I need STAR?
Seat adjustment fuses also...
Noticed I'm getting poor tyre wear on the outer and inner shoulders on both front tyres (Contis on my '05, C270CDi A/Garde estate). Classic symptoms tell me its under-inflation, but checking and double checking my pressures tells me I'm at manufacturers recommendations :confused: Anyone had...
Hi folks.. first post, but have "lurked" on learned a lot!
Have a w203 C270CDI first reg 03/03. Starting from cold ok, but when hot wont start, turns over ok, but will not even try.
Main dealer diagnostics say injector down and losing pressure when stood.
Being a simple soul, I thought...
I have a C270cdi Auto which I would like to use for the occasional short tow of a trailer about 1400kgs total laden weight. I know that the braked towing limit is 1500kgs and I know all about the 85% rule. I doubt if I will tow further than 10 miles on fairly flat roads at any one time...
I know its a long shot but thought I should try...
Or if anyone knows a decent source I'd be grateful...
Injector for 2002 W203 C270CDi Part No A6130700687
Hello all
The car (W203 C270 CDI) has let me down twice in the last fortnight when it has failed to start after stopping for fuel on a long journey. It will turn over but not fire. It has restarted both times after cooling. The last time it took an hour though, so I need to get it sorted. The...
Hi all,
Brain picking time again.
Does anyone know the part # of glow plugs for my 02 C270CDi (W203).
Also what ohms readings should I see from a good plug with a meter ?
cheers in avance ( not let me down yet)
as per title, mine is a 03 car and as read sometimes on this forum it's quite common a bad tightness of the diesel hoses in way of the diesel filter and/or HP pump in front of the common rail, just over the service belts.
said that, I've noted an oily dirt in way of the HP pump and hoses, in...
Hiya, i am new to this site as i have only recently purchased my merc, i was driving it last night when the battery/altenator light come on and it was saying "visit workshop".

Any idea for...
The radio in my 2002 C270CDi avantgarde has stopped functioning, the benz dealer has checked (free of charge)the main fuse & now thinks it may be the fuse behind the head unit. However he estimates a charge of £150 just to remove the unit & check the fuse.
The CD changer still has power to it...
