I was sitting in a long queue of traffic recently on a dual carriageway leading to a roundabout. I was in lane one and still some way short of the roundabout when a motorcycle passed on my offside riding right along the broken white line that separates the two lanes. After he had passed me, a...

Had my 2010 c350 serviced at an indy today. They rang an hour after i dropped it offand said they had done a health check on the car before the service and spotted a common fault in the c class. The rear wiring loom starts to melt on either side apparently. They quoted 102 per side to fix it Is...

Hi all, my Merc e320cdi w211 is now in limp mode! I noticed a few months ago that if I accelerated hard then the car would go into limp mode! This wouldn't always happen but may 3-4 times out of 10! If I turned the engine off then it would all resume back to normal with no issues.Anyway this has...

My 2007 E320CDI has covered 118,000 miles so some wear is expected. I've had the car nearly 2 years and a problem of intermittent jerky power delivery has got progressively worse. It clears and works fine for months then for no reason on a warm engine accelerating from 2-3000 rpm the engine...

Hi all, I've got a puzzling one. MY 1997 SL280 has a habit of closing its passenger window, even when the ignition is off and the keys are out. This seems to be leading to the battery draining (unless there is another fault, but this would seem to be the prime suspect and I'm not aware of...

Im having bother with my 2008 Vito 639 for months, it is randomly and often activating the emergency lighting showing on the highline dash (am i right in thinking it switches to fog lamps?) after switching on the headlights. What i normally notice is i switch the headlights on, nothing happens...

I hope this will be help to anyone and save you a bit of money This fault code PO183 Fuel temperature sensor I have had a problem with for a while. I managed to get from Mercedes which senor it was but they would not give me the product code. I have tried for a while. I eventually purchased...

My CLK 2004 aircon stopped working (no cold air) about the same time the intercooler hose split which I have now replaced, but aircon still not working. An independent garage I took the car to said that there are no leaks and it should work but it doesn't. They also mentioned their tools could...

Evening all Just want to confirm as i think alternator.... Cruising at 70...and red battery flashes and visit workshop, says all complimentary electrics switched off to save power. About 2 mins later flashes switched back to normal power. Is this the alternator on its way? Thanks in advance.

Insurance seems to think so. (taken from video, not my words). r33xIN2VQZw Also the Merc failed it's MOT the day before. I don't know what happened, but the Merc driver didn't seem to brake if at all. This happened a few days ago.

Hi, I have bought a damaged W212 E220 AMG Estate Night Edition, I have now got the engine running and the suspension pumping up my next task is the electric power steering which is not working. On the (not STAR) tester I'm getting "communication with control unit 'power steering' has a...

Hi, wonder if anybody has had this problem before. My 2002 W220 S430 had an ABS warning indication on the dash, didn't worry to much about it and started by taking the wheels off to check integrity of sensors etc and give it a good clean. The ABS warning disappeared but when taking off from...

I get the feeling this one is a spurious code as i have seen it come and go in the past. I also used to get spurious codes on my A45 as some of the requested sensor data wasn't supported by the car. I probably scan my car every week or so and since Christmas, when I bought the car I've seen...
