hi all

we have all the bolts and fixings out and they are loose, but seen impossibly...
I have a 1997 E200 that developed an exhoust rattle. New front section including cat fitted by local (Oswestry) independant garage, 4 weeks later the same rattle returned. My local man fitted another section under warranty and had the emisions re checked and found to be OK. He commented that...
Wondering if it's worth uprating them to 100 cell race cats - will be worth it if they are 200 cell or more, but nobody seems to know!
Surely somebody here will? :)
New genuine MB Cats for a CLK320 W208 (model with no front pre-cats, presumably pre-facelift).
I bought these with the intention of modifying them to use on my CLK (mine is the post face lift model with front pre-cats), but changed my plans.
These are frighteningly expensive from MB (in...
I recently fitted a new Bosal cat to a friends W202 C200.This cat also fits W210 four cylinders.

£79 plus vat !
Now,the OE...
I thought this may be of interest to someone. My CLK320 has four cats; two 'pre-cats' just after the manifolds, two further cats roughly half way along the car. A while ago, the rear cats started to rattle, indicating they had broken up (a common problem). I'd read on here and elsewhere that you...
Hi, A newbie here,I've got a great 2000 x reg 240 estate, I covered over 30K trouble free miles in the last year, its the first merc I've owned and I doubt i'll ever drive anything else. I was spoilt long before buying it after having use of more exotic mercs when I was working with a well known...
If you could have seen me five minutes ago, I was lying under the back of my E class, trying to entice our female British Shorthair out (little escape artist she is) with her favourite snack - ready salted crisps.
The sight of me, lying in the street, making kissy noises to the back of a car...

I was interested in this myself, unfortunately it's only suitable if you car doesn't have the front pre-cats, which mine does. :(
If it's suitable for your car, it's an...
Uh Oh! The dreaded rattle has appeared :( and confirmed by dealer during service.
I'm after a replacement cats for '97 C36 and will be looking at performance ones (not going to pay price stealers asking for OEM replacement!).
Can anyone recommend a supplier in UK South? I've enquired about...
Had to pop out to do some errands this afternoon, It was nice and sunny here so I popped the roof down and went for a blast :D However I started to notice a rattling sound up the front of the car while it was sitting at the lights... I have a feeling that this is the end of my cats :( Oh well...
The car had a bit of a rattle fron underneath - so I popped into George Fraser to see what it was - thinking it was a loose ally heat shield or similar.
Nope - its the Cat. Both of them.

Sold my last ride with a new MoT and 92,500 on the clock, all mine.
The fast idle test gave CO 0.30% vol - right on the limit. Lamda was toward the upper end at 1.015 and HC mid-range at 99 ppm vol. Natural idle values were comfortably in the middle.
The service people said 120 -130K...
