Hello all our year 2000 W210 E240 (2.6 petrol V6) estate has what I can only describe as a lazy brake servo. When the car is first started in the morning the engine automatically spins about 1200rpm for a minute or so - which it always has so I guess is normal - then drops to 6 or 7 hundred...

Hi There. Having finally got my 124 estate back on the road I've discovered a fault with the wiper switch. I think it's the relay - the wiper is wiping at random intervals sometimes on full, sometimes on intermittant even when the switch is set to off. Which relay should I look at...

Hi One of the front indicator bulbs failed on my W211 E-class last week, so I got a new bulb from MB and changed it, however it still does not work. The new bulb looks ok, do the bulb holders go faulty easily as well? Secondly, are the front left and right interchangeable, if so then I...

Evenin' All. I had a new windscreen on my W210 last week installed by Autoglass. The screen was not a genuine MB screen but (I'm assured) was manufactured at the same plant as the MB units. I would have liked the OEM screen but this would have cost me another £150.00 and my insurance...
