Hello all, first post and “OH” need advice. Bought a 03 C180 with 71.000 on the clock no initial bad sounds, faults,drives well and has the MERCEDES renowned badge on the bonnet, and got it for a good price, what more could you want.
1000 miles later a misfire, checked it all found nothing...
Well I never thought I would see the day, but the new Mercedes A Class fitted with the smallest 1.5 diesel has a cam belt rather than a chain:mad:
Reason for this.....the 1.5 diesel is supplied by Renault!
Whilst I don't like many things Renault....apart from RenaultSport products, their...

What not to do when there is a police car directly behind you plus the truck drivers commentary will ensure this will go down in Youtube history.

Hi All,
Trying to help a mates son out and he has just bought an SLK 200k with a fairly bad leak from the front Cam Magnet. I was wondering if anyone had part no's for these two parts? I need the blocker too which I understand is called the Starter Line.
My plan was to clean as much oil...
Hi just about to replace my timing chain and both the cam sprockets,as the teeth have virtually gone of the inlet cam does anyone know if the sprockets are keyed as I can't seem to find this information. It's on a 2005 clk 1.8k m271 thanks
:ban: Cam belts, I hate them and allways avoid cars with engines that have what I think is a design fault.
A friend of mine had a Alpha 156 and paid around £900 to change one of these horrid things, I don`t know if he was just massively over charged but it seems a lot.
Anyone with a story...
Grateful for some advice if someone can help. I have a S203 with the M271 engine in 180K guise on a 53 plate. It's covered a reasonably trouble-free 120K mostly motorway miles and up until now has been MB dealer serviced, but home fixed if anything has failed. I'm ex-motor trade, but these days...
My cam cover is showing signs of bubbling andd flaking paint on the underside of the cover. I am concerned that bits of flaking paint will end up in the engine if I don't clear and repaint the cover.
Can anyone suggest the best way to deal with this, can I just buy heat and oil resistant paint...
I am trying to remove the exhaust cam sproket in order to release the chain but before I do any damage, I want to know if the trox bolts holding the Exhaust cam sproket are left or right threaded.
I have already broken one trox bit in the process, then realised I was using the wrong type.
Hi, I have an oil leak on the right cam box cover of my c280, are there any hidden problems to replacing it as the garage said it was a 2 hour job, just cant see it

Im gonna have to bite the bullet on this one i think and take it to MB also i have quite a lot of water vapour coming out of the exhaust !!!!! Hope they can sort it and i might be able to enjoy my first Mb
Also if my camshaft timing was out would it not store a fault code ??:confused:
Checked...
hi i have a camcorder 8mm for sale , bought just before xmas to transfer some items model vp-w60 pal, liverpool area , all the bits with it , can text pics to you regards
Hi ,
My Cam Magnet Sensors have started to leak :eek:
Does anyone have a How-to on replacing them or is it something best left for a dealer/indie to do.
My engines M271 on a C180K 2003 with 92k on the clock.
Thanks guys.
Does anyone know if the cam chain on the W211 E55 is for life? I had a W124 500E before and was told that that was for life. I'm sure it has not changed but thought I would ask.
