courtesy

When I pulled up in my 210 last night, I opened the door, and was surprised to find the courtesy light did not come on. Opening the back door, I found the light in the back did not come on either. The lights under the doors did not come on either. This is the first time I have used it in the...

I've just had a friend turn up with a grin on his face. He's taken his car into Merc-care in Leeds this morning for some work doing and came away with a courtesy car until his is ready on Tuesday. No comment on the garage as I've never used them but... He took in a W210 E200 and came away with...

Hi Everyone, I recently did a boo boo and slammed the rear passenger door behind the drivers seat with the seat belt buckle sticking out which damaged the plastic switchgear that tells if the door is open or closed. Does anyone know the part number for this switch or could advise where I...

Got my car back today and shes driving smooth as cream, didnt realise how much i missed it until i started driving it again. god i love my car. i have a query... You know when you unlock the car or take the key out of the ignition the interior lights illuminate...well in a matter of words...

I've got my motor booked in to MB Manchester for a service, I've been told that a courtesy car is available, but I either have to use my own insurance or pay MB £13 to use theirs. I've owned a few cars (VW, Audi, BMW) and I've never had to insure the loan car myself before. What's more...

Front interior light cluster works ok when front doors open. Don't work when either back door is opened, and rear loadspace lights don't come on at any time - whether for open doors or tailgate. Bulbs are okay. Is there an in-line fuse somewhere? Any other ideas.

Hi i have a slight problem where the courtesy light does not go on when the passenger door is opened on my year 2000 SLK230. There is 12 volts at switch harness and the switch is ok as i swopped it with the drivers side door, anyone out there know what it could be or where could i get a wiring...

Why do dealers provide new cars as courtesy vehicles, which according to my brother-in-law who works for a BMW dealership they 'get the nuts thrashed off them' by both customers and staff alike and then when they are sold on as 'approved used cars' are described by the dealer as 'demonstrators'...

Took my E320Cdi to MB for an E service today, very helpfull and a pleasant experience so far. (Makes a change from people slagging them off!) Anyway, I got a nearly new C180K Sport saloon as a courtesy car, Hmmm, not very impressed with it. Don't get me wrong, it's better than the usual Corsa...

I have just been reading on the bodywork section how some members have to PAY for the use of a courtesy car?? I am surprised to read this and it has got me wondering what other dealerships do. Hopefully this naming of dealerships is in order?? It might be beneficial if there are two...

A flat battery this morning saw a brand new C200 cdi on the driveway courtesy of Mobilo. Black, and very very new....3000 miles. Have you ever been in a shoe shop, tried on a new pair, and then decided that the ones you wore into the shop look tatty? Well, my E270 is lovely, but it is...

HI I have a new Vito and was just wondering if any one can help with fitting a exterior led lighting kit similar to the one that BRABUS make http://www.brabus.de/news/news39e.htm my problem is I have no idea about the canbus system or the best way to wire these lights in I would like the...

Have got the A4 Cab in for a quick warranty job at the local Audi dealer (who in all honesty have been great so far :) ). When car originally went in for 'diagnosis' they supplied a perfectly nice '05' A6 Saloon for the duration (PM night before - PM the next day, suits my needs.) This time...

After my wife’s bump have been given an S320CDI as a courtesy car, due to the not at fault MB acident service :) . This car is not bad at all. I was astonished at the combination of performance and economy, got 35mpg over mixed driving into Manchester (non rush hour), even having a bit of...

I am mainly interested in asking people who live in London. Thanks in advance guys Zishan

Just thought I would post these couple of piccys for any W124 owner who might be thinking of different wheels for thier car.These aren't for sale or anything I have been using this car all day today whilst mine had the gear box oil changed and I quite liked this style on this car,Thought I'd...

Hi all, i'm 21 and gave my car to mercedes a few weeks back and they said that they no longer give courtesy cars to under 25's. I asked since when this rule had been put in place and he said that its been there since the beginning of 2004. What I find odd and made aware to him was that they...

Hello everyone... Today I noticed something strange with the courtesy light in the car. When I arm the alarm ( Mercedes/scorpion original fitment ) the courtesy light comes on for a few seconds and then goes off ?? Why, I dont know ? When I disarm the alarm there is no courtesy...

Well, my c180k is booked in for a rattle. They are giving be a ml270 for 3 days ( 04 reg ) so this should be fun.. They tell me its worth £34k - so a bit more than i paid for my car ... Should be fun - i've heard good and bad things about the ml's ... Nice to have a 'free' test...

Hi all, My ML is in for a minor warranty repair and I have been loaned a 270CDi E-class saloon (Dartford Mercedes) for a couple of days. Whooah... I must admit I was quite surprised how 'nippy' it was and the dashboard etc. makes my ML's look well outdated. It holds the road really well...
