Does a fuel filter really cost £80 and is it not part of the service? I was quoted £300 for the 'B' service and £80 on top of that for the filter. This was from a main dealer.. Cheers Adam

I've just looked at the tesco website for the "evidence" that their momentum 99 petrol improves fuel efficiency, and it certainly looks attractive. MOMENTUM99 - Tesco.com At worst it seems to improve MPG by 10% (Honda CRV), and at best by 27% (ford focus). Fuel price premium is only about...

Anyone have any idea what I am looking to pay for a set of four discs and pads for the wagon. The pad wear indicator is starting to spradically coming on when driving.....:doh:

Hi Anyone out there can give me idea how much fluid change would be? Sadly, not able bodied enough to do this these days. Had a couple of quotes between £150-£250, yeah right,surely not. Thanks

How much do you think the above will cost on my C250 TD? I've got a sealed tag on the dipstick and I was lead to believe that at some point it would have been changed? The wagon has done 145k miles. TIA!

MB Stockport just quoted me 800 notes to do this. Is this reasonable or for a job like this should I try an Indi? Your quick input would be very much appreciated! Cheers David

What's a good price to pay for a 'B' Service?? I have a 2006 C180...

I need some oil for my S210 320CDI (OM613). I'm sure Costco sell both Mobil 1 0w/40 & Castrol Edge 0W/30 (I used this oil last time). Has anyone been to costco and noticed the prices recently? Out of interest, which oil do you prefer to use? TIA. Paul.

Does anyone know the cost of the above? I've got a hole in mine and was wondering the cost of it from Benz. Or do I go get an aftermarket pattern part from Ebay...? Any advice would be helpful!

Hi All, I'm still considering buying a E55 estate. One I have seen is a pretty nice car but the rear discs looked well worn to me and looking like needing replacement very soon. I know this is meant to be a fairly costly exercise on a W211 E55 but does anyone on here know what I am likely to...

My indie says I need a new (front passenger side) ball joint as there is a bit of play in it and it's an MOT failure. He said the part is £149 plus it will take about an hour to change. Isn't £149 a lot just for a ball joint? Seems expensive to me. When I asked him about his he said it's all...

Hi............ Just connected and activated the BB phone which came with the BT Home Hub. Cost of calls made FROM the BB phone is laid out pretty well. But what about the cost to people who phone you? Is it the same cost as a call to a regular BT phone? Or is it more - or less? It doesn't...
