Hi, guys. I just bought a 2009 Mercedes A160 CDI, diesel. According to its service history, the mileage is 105K, and it never gets the timing belt changed. Should I change it immediately? Also I cannot even find the timing belt in the bonnet, where is it?
Hi, has anyone else had a problem with their audio changing when they change from drive to reverse on an automatic and sometimes visa versa. The car has been back to Mercedes several times now and they cannot replicate the fault to see what happens and I obviously cannot record it as I am...
The other day, when I'd been travelling some distance, on pulling off from a standstill the 'box stayed in low gear until about 3500 revs, despite relatively modest boot applied - sounded like it was in first (switch was in S mode at the time, so it would've used 1st). Checked the fluid level...
After searching around for centre caps I've come across quite a few I've liked ;) so bought them all :rolleyes:

Think my favourite are the mostly black caps:dk:

I've got the dreaded itch. Don't know much about the Nissan scene apart from they're fast and I like the look of them. Some of you guys must of thought about swapping out your c63 for one of these. Would't be able to stretch budget to a late one so would be around 35k budget. Wouldn't be used as...

Hi
I have bought an new dash cluster as my old one had many faults with dud pixels etc and the mileage obviously is not correct now and says I have done over 12k more than the car has. Is it possibly to change the mileage so it reads correct for the car via a piece of software or sending it off...
Hi,
Need massive help from you guys if possible please?
I have W210 320cdi. High pressure fuel pump started leaking. So I changed all the seals and it's fixed now. HOWEVER!! since then it's causing blue (ish) smoke. Before sorting the high pressure fuel pump it had no smoke issue at all. My...
After fitting the Pioneer app radio in place of my COMAND the time no longer automatically changes in the cluster to accommodate for the daylight saving etc
It says on the CONNECTS2 interface that the time changing etc would be preserved but seemingly this is not the case although steering...
I have usually changed the air filter annually, around every 20k, on my previous cars as they were easy and relatively cheap.
The schedule for my OM642 is 4 years or approx every 46k, and was last done during the service before last.
The mileage currently is 78k, with the next service due @...
First, am I right in thinking that when I press lock/unlock on the key fob, if a little red light flashes it means that the batteries are running low?
Second, when looking up how to change the batteries, I've seen some pretty uncomfortable stories about keys suddenly not working when old...
When I switch to DAB, the radio is always tuned to talkSport instead of the last station I was listening to or one from my presets. How can I change the default radio station?
