fail

I was not provided with the Advisory when I bought my car, just a green certificate. Just checked details at motinfo.direct.gov.uk and it shows that my vehicle failed and then passed at the same MoT centre, for the same issues, on the same day, at the same mileage!! The issues my car...

Hi, I recently bought a 2008 m 4matic 320cdi with the 7G. It has just started sending slight vibrations through the steering wheel and floor plate in each gear, I can also hear a igjt humming when this happens. It is still under mb warranty and the dealer has acknowledged that some noise is...

I've got gas in the system along with the UV dye to check for a leak. But when I turn the engine on and set all the temp control wheels to cold the AC compressor fails to initialise. There is the correct amount of coolant in the system but still nothing happens. The fuses are all intact as...

If you want to drive upside down/on its side get a SLS :D This Audi A1 flipped over while climbing a halfpipe during a public marketing stunt at Cinqunantenaire Park in Brussels last week. Audi attempted to suppress photos of the incident, but here's the hilarious aftermath. Audi's...

The factory cd changer in our 2002 ML270 cdi is saying there is no cartridge even when there is and all the discs are the right way round etc and i've had a little clean too... any ideas?

I only ever use one car kay. The other (my spare) is tucked up safely in my safe. However, I have read that MB keys can stopp working if not used for a while. Is this true? And if so after how long roughly? Because if it is then I will rotate the key that I use.

It looks like I'll be keeping the C Class for the foreseeable and might be joining the high mileage club that some of you enjoy! My car has done 75,000 miles with no issues and is properly serviced outside of dealership network. So the question is what will fail, what causes breakdowns (I've...

hi a few months back, it appeared that one or more of my glowplugs were faulty, ie the light failed to come on with the ignition but then came on about a minute after starting for about 30 seconds..... it did this for about 2 months. i decided to leave it until i had time to fix, but...

I had a look behind my dashboard and saw the bulb tell you there is a light problem was blown. I replaced it and it comes on every time i switch the lights on (main light or side light setting) after a couple of seconds. After searching here i found that it is normally rear number plate bulbs...

Well, my mission of mercy, involving taking a good friend to LGW this morning so she could get to her grandad's funeral in Banjul turned into a mission of despair. Got there, no problem, but on way back just past the M4 the "Electrical consumers switched off" message appeared - we stopped...

Morning all, I took my W208 in for its MOT this morning and before I dropped it off I had to fit a new sidelight bulb as mine had popped a few days earlier but after fitting and checking its still not working :-( Next thing to check, fuses, cables? umm bit stumped now tbh :confused:

Just a heads up - took my car in for a MoT this morning (wish me luck) and the tester advised me to remove my mount while he tested, as otherwise it's a fail. There's a bit of a grey area in the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations about obstructing the driver's vision in that...

Wonder if anyone can help. I have a 1995 w124 e220 auto. I put it in for its MOT test today, and it failed only on the emissions, specifically the CO reading. The garage told me that the lambda is "switching" properly so it's probably the cat, but it's worth adding some cataclean to the fuel...
