Hello all. My ML has plastic covers on the back seats which pop out to reveal the 'hook in' device for the ISOFIX car seat mechanism, but my E Class does not. Am I missing something? Does this mean that the E isn't usable for the ISOFIX system? I will be gutted if it isn't compatible...

All, the speed needle on my E270 has always stopped at 25mph and on some occasions not moved at all! All that is now sorted thanks to a bit of super glue! Not sure whether you know, but the speed needle is actually controlled by gears behind the elegant housing and in my case, the large...

Hi and happy New Year to all users, this is my first post so hopefully there is not already an answer posted that I have missed. PROBLEM: Sat Nav displaying a 'reading error' and invites me to insert another DX disk. I have used a CD cleaner in the hope that the lazer was dirty but no joy...

Out of no where my CLK displayed ESP/ABS/BAS errors and the engine management light is also on, as well as the fact the speedo didnt work. All these faults are intermittant and on/off about 50% of the time... exept for the engine management light which is constantly on. After a bit of googling...

...had some free time over the weekend! As you probably know, most of the W208 CLKs and the W210 models experience issues with the temp. and clock displays. I believe other models have the same problem. There is a simple reason for this. VDO are jerks and used cheap solution for the transfer...

When a fix turns into a modification! Can anyone guess what the modification is? how well do you know your W202's ? Once the correct answer is given the thread will be moved into the relevant section.

Three of the wheels on my 1989 W107 still look good, but one looks like it has been cleaned with wire-wool (photo below). Anyone know how I can fix it? Is it a DIY job or is there a good recommended company near Kingston upon Thames?

I have a '94 124 200 auto (5 seater) in pretty good condition inside and out. The head gasket has gone, and the head is proving difficult to remove (see my other post re damaged bolts). I wondered what other members thought about the pros and cons of selling it as it stands (it starts and runs...

Hi, When lowering my drivers window in particular there is a rather embarrasing squeak! It's a CLK, so it's a frameless window. I also want to avoid getting grease marks over the window. Any tips? Thanks

I have recently aquired a set of 17" AMG replica monoblock alloys, however, the current alloy wheels bolts I have are too short? I reckon I need ones with a 60mm shank. Is there a specific name for these or a specific car they came on? And does anyone have any available? Thanks Ed

Hi. One of my disks emits a really irritating 'whistle'. It doesn't get any louder or quieter it just makes the same tone at the same volume every-single-time-I-brake!!! MB service tech said to stick with what's on the car, if I can live with it, as the pads still have around 80% wear left...

My 55 W203 comand screen is horribly scuffed as though the last owner cleaned it with something he should not have. is there any way to get it back to a decent state? I have an avantgarde an the interior is lovely but this ruins it for me.
