Had some issue with a puncture last week. Just been out to get some tyres and the alloy had a huge crack. Not sure if this was the result of me driving 2 miles to get off the motorway or was cracked weeks before as it was constantly losing pressure.
Can the below be repaired?
And i am not...
My C55 exhaust pipe is cracked, concealed beneath the rearmost clamp where the o/s rear box is connected to the central/n/s box. The crack runs around the pipe right where the pipe meets the flare for the joint about half the way round at the mo, so I can imagine a weld then ground down would...

Today I decided to get the wheels off as part of a full detail. I hadn't used the car in a little while so as I hadn't really looked at it, I was surprised to find that the drivers side rear tyre was pretty flat and I'd not noticed before.
I whipped the wheel off, expecting...
We had a crack appear on the inside edge of one the rear wheels which we had welded. All seemed fine for about 4000 miles.
After a new tyre we found it was losing about 10 psi in a day so I popped the wheel off to have a look and there is a new crack about an inch long next to welded repair...
Hi All
I have a 2005 CLS. I had what appeared to be a slow puncture. I took it to a tyre place and they couldn't find a puncture but on taking the wheel off found a 1 inch crack on the inside edge of the rim and they believe air is thus seeping from the tyre. I assume this is wear and tear...

Hi all,
Maybe an isolated case, or not.
Had my van a couple of weeks now, and after 1000+ miles spotted a problem.
So the instrument cluster, shielded with (plastic) glass has a black plastic "trim".
Basically it's a precut sticky silhouette I imagine covers nasty edges. It covers...
I purchased all round discs and pads from MB Birmingham and had them fitted at MSL beginning of February. 10 weeks and 1700 miles later offside rear disc is cracked. It's now almost 7 weeks since it was spotted and found out today that MB Hull (Listers) won't cover the new disc so I have to...

Looking at a set of used alloys however 2 of the wheels have cracks on the inside of the rims.
These would be summer wheels only and need a refurb too.
What would be the cost of a diamond cut refurb x four wheels including a weld on two wheels
More importantly us such a weld recommended
Thanks...

Hi Everyone
I have just finished replacing all of the injector seals and bolts on my ML270 to solve the "black death", and I noticed a crack in one of the injectors, about an inch from the bottom. This was injector number 4, and was the cause of the black death. It needed a slide hammer to...
