Sorry if this has been covered before on here. I have a 2012 C-class coupe and the rattles are driving me mad :mad: There is a rattle coming from the bad seat area, I have heard it could be the parcel shelf or something to do with the rear lights?? Also the drivers & passenger seats creak...

Hello, after a while I've decided to do something to the car that was around me head. Heated seats mercedes got scrapped, to take advantage of it are a seat for the PS3. But first I remove fabric to put heating heated rear seats. As sportcoupe is a 2 +2 seater, eh also built a center console...

Umbrellas instead of a sunroof and a memory foam 'airbag': Strange DIY car fixes that owners have come up with to save a few pounds | Mail Online Lol!

As a DIY'er, If I were looking for a good, used (older) MB, should I go for a manual or auto in terms of ease of maintenance. I've had autos in the past that have been a nightmare when they went wrong. Mike

Great forum!...this is my first post and I know there’s plenty of talk about rust, but I’m trying to make my mind up which way I should go with it… I am now the (third in line) owner of a 2006 A200 Turbo and have just noticed that she has some minor rust outbreak in a couple of places – on the...

Looking to buy a Merc, most likely between a R129 500SL or a W208 CLK55. I currently own an MGF which i do the majority of servicing on myself. I'm looking at what servicing would cost on a Merc and can't say i'm suprised at the prices, but wonder if it is necessary to have it carried out by a...

I found a DIY video of a complete "metal sunroof" removal for a w202, but I couldn't find one for a glass sunroof. Are they the same? Mine is having a very hard time retracting. I'm sure it needs to be cleaned and the rails re-greased. The last time I had it open, it was filthy in there...

Hi all I'm just wondering if anyone has imported a rairly recent LHD Merc into the UK in recent times? I work for much of the time in Germany although I still officially live in the UK. Most of my business mileage is overseas so it makes sense to buy a left-hooker for business use (I just...

My air con is not working and was told that the condenser has a hole, so allowing gas to excape (was told this last time it was in at indie for something else) - haven't changed until now as not been necessary - but am off to France on a long drive and would prefer to stay cool on the journey...

A very interesting thread, making it look so easy (which I'm sure its not). How to wrap your F800GS in Carbon Fiber...... - ADVrider

Was quoted over £500 to wrap my scratched up silver bits. Got some 3M carbon wrap for £30, and with a hairdryer and a scalpel and a bit of time, this is the result so far. For a first attempt I'm very happy with the look. Top section to follow, and door trims.

I reckon this guy deserves a medal for his videos on how to repair and maintain your old mercedes. While the site tends to deal W123 and 190 its an excellent video introduction for " noobies" wanting to get their hands dirty with a bit of DIY on any age of Merc. it also covers many of the...

Just got my 2004 320cdi last week and the right xenon bulb is not working.(warning on dash) Local specialist wants £30 for diagnostics before even changing the bulb. Is changing the bulb easy? Where can I order the bulbs from? Any help would be appreciated!:)
