Hi there, I have a 58 plate E220 CDi which I have had for 4 months now and I have noticed that first thing in the morning the transmission is 'sloppy' when cold. It feels something like an old elastic band like it is struggling to make a smooth change. When it's warm it is smooth as silk and...

In mornings if i drive really gently on throttle the box feels like it changes in i think 3rd really early & so the revs drop right down. Also feels like the car pulls as it changes up through low gears. It only lasts for about a mile. Any ideas?

Hi All, I collected a w123 280CE today, it ran very well at up to 85 mph for over an hour down the M6. As soon as I hit slow progress, the temperature zoomed up towards 120. The cab air blew hot until the temperature rose rapidly when it blew cold, this despite the fan being on full hot...

Hi all first post so please be gentle, I bought a clk320 cab (w208) in august and everything was running fine, at the beginning of november the car started to feel lumpy. After reading this forum for a few days I decided an odb2 scanner was essential to find out what my problem was, got a...

Had a new MB thermostat fitted by local garage, now having cold start problems. Engine turns over ok but does not fire Can take 10 - 20 turns to eventually get it to fire. Once I get engine started and heated it works fine. Car has never missed a beat until now.

Hi, I have this kind of odd problem with my 1999 E300 DT. It starts fine but runs like you had taken the turbo out. If I drive it until it's warm, then restart, it runs good. In summer I just have to run for a couple of kilometers, at about 10° C for about 15 kilometers and at about freezing...
