I've been bleating on for a while now about how I'd love a twin turbo 3.0L diesel for E Class - the low down shove from the twin turbo 4 pots is great.
How about this M550d from BMW (non UK spec) - and despite the 550 nomenclature, it's "only" a 3.0L, but with triple turbos - four wheel drive...
My A160 tailgate has suffered from sundry rattles that I have been sorting.
All that remains is the adjustment of the catch.
According to WIS the dimension "A" should be 24-26mm.
My car's catch does not look like the WIS image and the equivalent dimension is 40mm.
Would someone please supply me...
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 - anyone know where I can get one of these? I am guessing MB will be expensive ....
Mine is sticking either in the locked position so cannot get boot open or in the open position so cannot shut boot :devil: Have taken it all apart this evening (after 45 mins trying to open it!!) and...
My E320 wagon rear seatback has jammed up - and will not unlatch with lever. (Probable lack of use/seized up.) Finally freed up through top - (destroying seat top plastic trim!) Anyone ever taken seat apart to fix problem? Other side fine.

Hi all!

Hi all,
I have a 2003 C-Class 180K Estate, have noticed a noise as if the boot is not shut when going over gentle bumps.
Is there anyway of tightening the clasp on the catch or is it time for a new catch. If so, where to get the original part, or part number would be great!
Thanks
Justin
My 2007 R230 is booked into dealer tomorrow for replacement of the fuel filler flap catch.
The "push push" catch is faulty and will no longer hold the eyelet on the flap and it springs open every time the car is unlocked. The car is low mileage (under 5k) so its not been subject to too much...

Thinking of installing an oil catch tank instead of getting the fumes burnt in the inlet and filling all the pipes with gunk. Something like this: Oil-Catch-Tank Mercedes C 36 43 C43 C55 C63 CE200 AMG - eBay.ch (endet 03.04.11 20:43:01 MESZ)
What do you think? Good or bad?

Good to see in these austere times that our guardians have so much time and spare resource on their hands.
I could think of many other H&S Regulations that would save more lives and injuries if properly enforced with such vigour.

I ordered a new E350 CDI estate on the 21st of September and made it clear to the MB dealership that I wished to have the car registered on Jan 1 2011 and wished to pay in full before Jan 4 when the Vat increases.
This was not a problem so we speced the car and went ahead with the order on the...
Does anyone here have any experience with Medion PCs or a shop called Aldi? Is Medion their own brand?
Reason for asking is that I saw an advert this week for a 21" touch-screen PC with Intel T4500 processor, 4GB SDRAM, 1TB HD and bulit-in TV/DVD/webcam, etc... for £600. With a 3-year...

The nearside catch engages but the offside one seems to have a disinclination to follow suit.
I assume this is because the cable run is longer to that side, but how do I put it right???
Thanks everyone..................................mw
I have a bit of a problem with my 1997 Avantgarde e-class estate. I can't fold the back seats down due to a broken seat back catch on the passenger side. The red pop up part of the catch has broken off. It looks as if the previous owner has had a go at a repair by ripping the seat material away...
Came home from the pub last night, after driving my mates home (no I did not drink, was the driver). Car was fine. About 4 when I leave the house to go shopping I noticed a scratch (keyed from the left front indicator all the way to the passenger door).
I just do not know why on earth people...
