    Checking oil level CLK 320 CDI Sport

    Hi all, Probably a dumb question but I'm struggling with finding oil level check on speedo cluster. I don't have the handbook to check the "how to". It's easy on my 270 CLK as it's a simple option from steering wheel controls, not so it seems on my 320 CDI Sport! I have tried putting the...

    Checking Clutch Fluid

    Hi Chaps, I have a 2007 w204 6 speed manual and was wondering where the clutch fluid reservoir is, that's assuming that it is hydraulic and not cable. My previous car was a Rover 75 and the clutch fluid reservoir was on top of the clutch pedal and a real pig to get at. Many thanks Paul

    It's always worth checking

    My wife's renewal invitation for her A class arrived in the post today. It was only a few pounds more than last year so she was happy to let it renew. I had some spare time, so I thought I would just run a quote through Compare the Market. Guess what, same company popped up 15% cheaper...

    Checking a VIN

    I recall there was once a link to a web site that would give the build spec against a VIN. Does anyone still have the link please? Thanks

    Checking transmission oil level on C55

    Hi. Anybody know if it is possible to check the transmission oil level from within the engine bay? Hoping it has a dipstick hidden under there somewhere to save getting it checked by a dealer on a car lift. Cheers. Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

    DVLA are checking.

    Spotted for the first time (for me) a small hatchback parked ahead on the grass verge of a 50mph carriageway just outside Bournemouth today. On drawing closer I saw a camera set up on a tripod and thought "Ah, speed camera". No. As I passed I saw the lettering on the car "DVLA Road Tax check"...

    Checking MAF help - C180 w203

    Hi, Engine light came on last Friday, I checked fault codes using OBD reader and P0101 came up. Looked on here and discovered it was most likely the MAF sensor causing the problem. I removed the sensor block and cleaned it using isopropyl contact spray and gave the connection a quick squirt...

    Checking power steering level

    Before an expedition south next week I have changed all the fluids in the car. Actually, I am in the throes of changing the PSF by the "dilution method." The tiny dipstick inside the cap has two bands which are 'Max' and "Min' at both 20 C and 80 C. So far so good. But I am now wondering if...

    SLS owner checking in

    Afternoon all! Now the proud owner of a 2011 SLS. Impressed how easy it is to drive in London traffic and it doesn't seem too terrible on fuel on a run. Main reason for buying is all our other cars have little or no luggage space and pulling up outside a nice hotel handing over carrier bags...

    Checking tyre pressure via the cluster

    After following the manual I can't access the tyre pressures. After selecting the TYRE PRESSURE menu on the cluster all it asks is to reset RUN FLAT INDICATOR and doesn't show the pressures as the manual states. Am I missing something?
