Hiya,
What type of brake fluid is required for a Mercedes A150 (2005) W169?
I heard apparently you need to do a brake bleeding every 2 years and this car has had none in 7 years ... is that a really a requirement?
Im not sure whether i should use DOT4 or DOT4+?
Thanks in advance
Having concluded my life is worth more than £160 (after members discount on ECP) for new Pagid brake discs, pads and sensors I thought i may aswell go the extra mile and bleed all the brakes after installation. :bannana:
I have a few questions which I would appreciate if anyone could help me...
My s210 320 cdi's windscreen washer bottle is emptying itself. Fill it up with screen wash and a couple of days later it is bone dry. A bit of a pain.
Any thing obvious to check?
Cheers JK
Hi all, had my CLK 320cdi (2005) for about 2 years now. Drove my car to work this morning, no problems. On returning to the car after work it would not open on key fob, I the used key to open the car and the alarm started sounding and the dash displayed SRS, Display malfunction & brake fluid...
I'm planning on taking my C63 around Silverstone next month. Just wondered if folks who'd tracked their C63s had experienced any issues with brake fluid boiling and would therefore recommend using uprated fluid.
TBH I haven't looked in any detail but my car will have whatever spec fluid...
A quick question, well two actually -
1. Price of a C service - quoted by dealer at £800 in Hamilton and same dealer in Ayr at £500? Does this seem correct as it seems a lot for an A service plus a v-belt change?
2. Been told I need to have the fluid changed n the box, a 7G with 26k on the...
Would anyone be able to tell me where the power steering fluid reserve is located in the E220 CDI engine? I did have a poke around, but couldn't see anything obvious, though I didn't take off the plastic cover which maybe I need to do?
Bit of noise and juddering this morning at full lock, so...
Can anyone advise please. I have a 2002 E320cdi. The EC light has come on again - I believe indicating the level/pressure of the air con fluid is low. My indie topped it up for me about a year ago and all was fine. However, when the indie was changing my brake pipes about a week later the EC...
Just topped up my Reservoir, probably added about 200ml, and drove the shops only to find upon my return a massive pool of fluid and my reservoir about 3/4 empty.
I've had it with this system.
I know upon reading over, and over, and over till I'm sick of it that a working SLS system is...
Hi guys
I wonder if anyone can help?
I am looking to replace ATF in a 2007 E220 CDI, after doing some research on this site I am led to believe Fuchs Titan 3353 is the correct oil, could anyone confirm this is the case?
Also I have contacted a local indy garage and asked for a quote on atf...
Hi can any one tell me how many litres of ATF I need to replace the fluid in a s320cdi on a 05 carnt find it in the manual anywhere oh and is there any ATF recommended for this box
Hello,
I (more or less) followed these wonderful directions about how to change the ATF fluid on my 1997 E420.
I bought 9 quarts of ATF fluid, and while the oil was draining out of the left cooler pipe (after removing the banjo bolt) I was adding oil to the tranny pan so that oil would come of...
Hey guys,
The supplier only sent me 3 quarts of Fuchs transmission fluid by accident, I wanted to change my fluid in the next couple days and decided to go buy an extra 2 quarts from the dealership so I didn't have to wait.
Can i mix Fuchs and Mercedes trans fluid together? They are both...
Sorry for all the transmission questions...I drove my car around today and then got under it to do some preliminary research on the ATF change.
I then i noticed this strange clear yellowish fluid leaking onto the floor, from the front of the transmission (is that the torque converter)? It was...
Hello everyone,
I'm going to bite the bullet and attempt to do a "drain and fill" on my w202 c230k's auto box sans TC fluid change. Even with Olly's instructions, that part just looks too confusing with the banjo bolt etc. Already purchased dipstick, filter, gasket, drain plug o-ring...
I have renewed the brakes front an rear (discs + pads + flex hoses + 2 front brake lines as I b**gered the threads). Everything back on he car and replaced brake fluid with ATE Super Blue and bled the brakes. The ESP and ABS light remains on when the engine is turned on. The car is still on axle...
Hello all. I have a friend who has a 53 plate C Class Kompressor who's wipers and washer fluid are not working. He checked the fuses and all seems ok. Can anyone please advise why this could be, faulty stalk, relays?!?
