    Brake master cylinder?

    Hi all, changed the brake fluid in my w210 recently, the fluid that came out of the front nipples was dirty, the rears came out clear. Would this be a sign that the seals are starting to go in the master cylinder? The pedal feel was slightly spongy before, feels quite a bit better now.

    1.) Hi, I need to know what the torque specifications are on a 2000 model ML 270 CDI. 2.) Do I need to torque them only once, or again after +/- 1000Km driving as is the case with certain other vehicles? 3.) Can I use the same head bolts or should they be replaced with new head bolts?

    Took my 320CDi into the dealers today to have 4 of the injector seals replaced. Got a phone call saying that there has been a previous bodge repair next to No 1 injector - the side wall next to the injector has had a small plate stuck in place (probably to cover a crack/hole) and therefore...

    P0301 cylinder 1 misfire detected

    I've got this fault code on my C180 (1998 model). My first guess would be the coil-pack, but if this was failing wouldn't it cause a misfire on two cylinders as they share a coil? What else could cause this fault? Also, which is cylinder no1? Many thanks
