I repaired a broken hanger on a rear silencer today for a local Indie. Thought it worth sharing as this looks as if it will occur more frequently so worth an inspection. As you can see from the photos the rear hanger has failed around the edge of the weld ( heat affected zone) and torn a piece...

Hi I have the squealing coming from the centre air vent implying low gas, I had the car re-gassed with uv dye nearly a year ago but the noise came back after a couple of weeks. I've tried using a uv torch to find the leak but in all honesty I'm not sure where to look, certainly nothing obvious...

I've been searching up and found a slight back whereby you can link the 12v switched to the perm live that the seat control module needs thus the module only comes on when the key is on and thus stops the drain on the battery overnight Brilliant - although my car only has two wires BROWN and...

Hi Guys, I have the " common " tank baffle rattle problem, and have read here that many have fixed this issue in various ways ( without having to shell out for the tank replacement ). I wonder if any member have had this " fix " done by a third party ?, and if they could provide me with...

Was going to put this under 'what you did to your Mercedes today' and if it's already been covered forgive me. When I bought my car almost 2 years ago the switchgear was loose and the indicator stalk would not detent any more ( probably from heavy handed frustration by the previous owner). The...

hi my door panel is slightly loose and it has now caused the top part of the door panel to be damaged and it no longer stays stuck behind the metal clips along the top side (towards the front of the door) and the triangle panel keeps being knocked off when i close the door (door panel comes...

Another problem with my E Class :doh: after reading the cdi lack of power sticky I started checking all vac pipes, boost pipes etc because it felt like it was NA a lot of the time, changed a few Vac pipes cleaned up and checked actuator and vanes, after that the actuator had full movement when...

Hi there guys, I've recently purchase a E350 and for some reason I'm having trouble with the air distribution. The car only gives me two options either aim the cold / warm air to my feet or only to the dash vents to face. I can vaguely remember that when I purchased the car it had an...

I know absolutely nothing about this type of roof as my last soft-top was a Jeep Wrangler and it roof was just a thin bit of fabric/plastic!! Now my problem is I've no idea where the rain/water goes it soaks into the roof but the...

I had noticed that the left speaker sounded like the fabric cone had a tear in it when i removed the speaker from the door it was actually better (and worse) as the paper had only detached it self from the rubber surrounding it was worse as the speaker seems to have rust in it!! I...
