    E280 CDI Sport (Celtic Tuning Map) Dissapointing RR result

    E280 CDI Hissing and nasty smell

    With no prior warning, at the end of a 400 mile journey my E280 CDI was hissing loudly from the rear and smelling of cabbages. The hissing (and smell) persisted for some minutes after switching the engine off. Is this the catalytic converter? Or something else? Thanks for any thoughts.

    E280 Sport Brake overhaul.

    Inspired by Harry82 I decided to give my brakes a make over. I wanted something subtle yet still sporty. So decided to go with gunmetal grey with silver AMG logo. Now I now they are not AMG brake callipers; but the standard MB decal looks boring. I followed Harry82's guide using high build...
