flat

Hey guys. Another problem on the new wagon. I keep getting flat spots or moments when the power seems to hesitate when I am accelerating. It only lasts a second or two and the seems to be a raspy buzzing noise with it. Almost like a really quiet exhaust blow coming from the engine bay. There are...

W220 S320 cdi 2001(51) My battery seems to drain every 2-3 days, I recently had issues with a faulty passenger door control module causing the electrics not to function on the passenger door which I was advised may be the cause of the problem, but I have fitted a new module and although it...

I have a bedroom bay window with a flat roof and the main roof being tiled flows all the rain water on to this flat roof. It has been re-felted a few years ago and is sound apart from when it rains. The roof appears to be angled away from the house (for obvious reasons) to allow the rain to...

My W203 had been at Manchester Aiport 'meet and greet' for 2 weeks and from landing on Friday evening took me over 90 mins to get it back plus it was absolutely filthy - covered in bird muck, feathers and tree debris. Looked for all the world like it had been parked in a farmyard!! :eek: Going...

Yes! Back from Russia late last night and fully expected no co-operation from CLS this morning (based on the fact my 211 never started after 7 or 8 weeks being left) and.............. no problem! First turn of the key! :bannana: One up for CLS then! :D Going to cane the **** off it later...

Any thoughts, experience of this? The rear suspension on my bus has deflated and won't pump up:-( The red light is on and when I press the button to manually inflate/raise the suspension it flashes quickly but does not inflate, on releasing the button the light goes back to continuous on. I have...

Just gone out to my car to find I have a flat battery - a result of the alarm problems most likely. I have tried to get into the car with the key blade from the drivers door, however it wont unlock and I am at risk of bending the blade. How can I get access? Thanks!

A few weeks ago I was away from home for the weekend and acidentally left the keys in the ignition overnight. When I discovered the keys, the battery was too flat to start the engine (engine would not turn). :doh: It started easily with jumper leads from a much smaller battery, and charged...

As per title... anyone know how it is removed - as mine is completely silver and I wish to fit a replacement.... TIA

eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace I'm after that sleeker look with a flat emblem rather than the star. Is this the one that I want? Is it really as simple as it sounds? (I'll keep the star in case of eventual resale).

My Dad accidently moved his W211 headlights to <-p mode when he switched his headlights off last Wednesday, as a result the battery completely lost its charge. (is this a design fault? as on my W202 there is a longer distance between the 2 positions on the knob, yet the W211 is mm's apart! im...

The batteries keep on getting flat. Bought the vehicle with flat batteries in the remote. Found that batteries keep getting flat every now and then. Used the batteries from an s-class w140 and then found that both LED'S on the rear-view mirror do not flash.These were energiser batteries...

I have a 96 S class S280. When I use the central locking it eats batteries. The battery is currently flat. Have tried charging it through cigarette lighter (unsuccessfully). Worked before, but not this time. Are there any other terminals in the car?

Hi all, I was just about to buy a friends 2002 E270 CDI AVANTGARDE, but I cant get it started. He has emigrated so the car has been stood for 9 months. He put a new battery in 3 months ago and it started up fine, then he said the next day it wouldnt start. I took the battery off and replaced it...

Hi All, As some of you may know I have been umming and arring about a R129 SL 500 for a while. In that time I see that their prices have risen (past 18months) great! One thing that has always held me back from purchasing is the look of the front end. There is just something that I don't...

Hi, So having been sat for a while my car battery is dead. I am an RAC member, but I remember from reading threads a while back that you should be cautious when dealing with dead batteries - jump starts or starting from a jump pack could be damaging. The car is a W208 facelift CLK230 with...
