I've just got my car back from the stealership. 30K B Service and it needed 2 new front tyres and a new nearside front wheel. The wheel has a 1" crack across the inside. The garage reckon I hit something. I don't remember it, as something that has damaged a wheel would have been...

When car was in for its gearbox oil change last week - the complimentary "visual health Check" noted cracked suspension bushes.... Any idea if this will involve new bottom arms etc., or can a bush kit be purchased seperately - and cheaper? Thanks Mark

Seems like an issue with the manifold on my 230k. Sounds like a tractor when started from cold. As its a common issue with the CLK, i'm assuming the manifold is cracked. Now just want to know if anyone has had a cracked manifold welded or if i can purchase one if anyone is selling on the off...

Sigh....it had to happen, I christened the wing mirror on my W163 ML. Fortunately, it was just a clip to a tough transit mirror casing (with no damage at all :eek: ). However, my electrics are fine, just the mirror glass cracked. How much for one of those then?

Approx 10 months ago i had both my front wishbone bushes changed on my W202 C250. The car had its MOT done yesterday and it appears that my 2 front wishbone bushes are both cracked again.:crazy: They're isn't any excessive play in them and it passed its MOT but the chap did tell me about it...

Hi guys, My rear screen on my 190E 2.5-16 is cracked. I can get this replaced under my insurance policy by a company called national windscreens. ok, i have heard horror stories about these companies and to be honest i do not trust them with doing the job. I called their local branch...

Hi, I managed to crack my sump today, oil is leakinging out continously, so its not just a hairline crack, its actually slightly dented. Anyone have any experience of fixing such a problem. Is is possible to patch up the crack or possibly weld something over it, or does it need replacing...

Can anyone tell me how I can change my cracked dial switch knob for the AC temp. please? Do I have to take the whole switch out?? Thks!

I have a W211 E class and I recently noticed that the housing for the steering wheel air bag is cracked, next to where the horn gets depressed. The hairline crack is about 3/4 inch and follows the contour of the plastic cover. The break goes all the way through as you can push the plastic on...
