Gents,
Whilst replacing the rear shocks on my c class (202) CDI220 this weekend I noticed oil around the rear differential. Sods law is that the end plate from where it seems to be coming is half obscured by a cross member or something like that, does anybody know how easy it would be to...

My diff has been leaking and as I am moving house with a longer commute I think its time to get it fixed.
I phoned a couple of garages today. One estimated the job at 3 hours and the other at 4 hours. These are both Mercedes Indis.
I was supprised at such a big difference in the estimated...
:cool: I recently took my year 2000 E320CDI (71000 miles) for A service and the report came back there was 'slight weep from PAS Pump' & 'slight leak from Diff'. The customer services chap adviced me that it would be over £1000 to repair the diff (what's this?) but there was no need to repair...

After searching around I'd like to know if someone have ever installed a mechanical "limited slip differential" in a W202.
It should be really nice and useful.
Questions are: how it work with ASR (I'm wondering that with ASR off it should work well)? where to find (...dealer!? I don't...
Last thing I need to get sorted on my car is the differential.
Symptoms -
When accelerating hard and taking foot off accel., I get a 'bang' from the rear diff. I'm guessing its sick and needs replacing or repairing.
Does anyone know of a mech who can repair diffs? or has any idea of...
Can anyone help me out with this please. Also, how would you know if your differential is slipping.
On a side note, does anyone know at what RPM a kompreossor in a '02 C200 kicks in? and how the variable valve timing unit of a car effects engine sound?
Thanks in advance for any replies
I went to Steve (R2D2's mate) to sort out a rattle (this has been bugging me for about 2.5 years!!!) tonight. No one else has managed to fix it. Not George Fraser, not Lucky Motors, not Prestige Car Specialists. Steve did it in an hour. It was a marvel watching him diagnose the fault (traced to...
Handed in the C43 for an oilservice and asked the dealer to investigate the apparent oil leak from the differential.
Got a call back a few hours later, confirming that the oil leak is such that it should be fixed, involving three washers and 4-5 hours of work to the tune of €€€€€.

Hi All,
My diff has had a lot of play in it for a while now, and as its a manual, its really noticeable as it gives a knock when pulling away. Its not that bad, and at the moment my cure is to turn the radio up..
But does anyone know the best solution, can a diff be refurbished?
I...
