Hello everyone. I have a 1998 A160 W168 with an automatic transmission (722.7). Ever since I bought it a year or so ago it has had a problem with the reverse gear. When selected, it will engage fine when the engine is cold, but then it only engages after a delay when the engine is running hot...

W215 Cl600 Hi, It gets very hot out here and, when returning to the car after e.g lunch, the aircon doesn't come on for between 5-10 minutes ....... just when you need it! It's fine when starting first thing, in the garage, which is open-fronted but covered from the sun. Does this...

Hi, I've recently experienced a problem with the throttle response on my 2001. I've owned the car a couple of months, it's a low mileage (25k) FSH model, and the other day an hour or so into a drive I noticed a delay when pressing the accelerator. It lasted a second or so before there was any...

Hello – can anyone help me with a problem on my newly acquired 1994 W124 300E diesel? The problem is that the glow plug light on the dash does not come on until 30 seconds or so after the ignition has been switched on (and at the same time you hear the “clunk” as the relay kicks in). The car had...

Hi On my W204, the internal light/boot light don't stay on very long. Once the boot is open, the boot light only stays on for 30 sec before turning off. Before this use to stay on unil it was closed. The internal light are doing the same, once I have the door open - after 30 sec the lights...

OK,I am sure this will have been covered before, but I havn't been able to find a thread. My CLS has the 7 G-tronic, there is a delay from depressing the throttle, at say coming up to a roundabout or junction, or when starting to overtake. my question is therefore.. why, and has anyone...

I have got aW212 E250 CDI Sport. This is my first ever diesel and first ever automatic. When I accelerate hard, there seems to be a 1-2 second delay before it decides to go. Is this normal? I though it had 2 turbos to eliminate this kind of thing?

So, My CLK flashed up "30 days to Service B". Having just recently accepted a pay cut, this was not music to my ears! I've read that the most likely reason is that it's been 2 years since the last service, that could be true, I need to check the books. Just making sure it's not something...

Friend has a 320CDi 2009 7speed tip. Going from drive to reverse there is a very noticable delay. Easily two seconds before drive takes up. Normal going from reverse to fwd. My 5speed is almost instantaneous. Is the delay normal or any ideas please? (before he complains)

I thought forum members would like to see photos of a crack in one of my alloy wheels. I originally posted on the wheels and suspension thread in the technical forum but this seems of much wider interest and safety implication that I thought others would like to see it. The first picture is of...

Hi all, Thought I'd bring a problem to the panel: Intermittently, I have noticed that kick-down is not working correctly. Instead of dropping down a few gears and galloping away, I hear the engine doing this but do not feel anything happen! Its almost like there's a limiter on - checked...

I've just bought a year 2000 W220, love it to bits already. :bannana: There's been one problem that's developed as soon as I got the car. The car was on 0 litres in the tank when I got it, but managed to drive 1.2 miles to the nearest petrol station, Texaco, filled up with a full tank, 81...
