For anyone who has a late nineties car that is prone to automatic transmission oil finding it's way up the wires to the TCU and the footwell, this is the best explanation of how to fix it by changing the connector on the gearbox. I have now done this and it was quite easy.
Note however; if...
Hi All
I've got a 08 W211 and find the ambient lighting very subtle, while driving can't really tell its on unless I actually look at the lights directly, I have it on the max setting too.
I was considering replacing the footwell bulb with a brighter one, I've seen on eBay a seller which...
Hoping that someone has seen this before. Went to look at a R107 SL recently.
Without putting it up on a ramp, I did as detailed an inspection as I could. When I pulled up the drivers side floor carpets I saw some rust around what I can only call a sensor positioned in the body behind the...
Hi Guys,
Has anyone a wiring diagram showing how the footwell lights on a 2013 W204 are connected up etc. My C63 hasnt got them and I would like to retro fit them.
Hi All
I am in the process of trying to access my broken footwell flap and I've gotten stuck - can anyone give me any pointers, help or tips to get to the flap form this point please? I've attached pictures of the point I've reached.
I've been reading this guide but I'm kind of snookered...
Hello everyone,
I have been trawling through all the threads and have come across all the relevant threads about water leaking. I have cleared the drain and made sure the water is clearly flowing through the drain pipes.
The problem I have is when it rains I get water dripping from the...
Hi Everyone, I'm not sure whether this should be under electronics or interior, so apologies if its in the wrong place.
My 2003 CLK seems to have a slightly odd issue. When the air is directed to the footwell on the drivers side, there isn't much air coming through, even with the blower turned...
Hi , I've got a problem with my 2002 Clk 200k, the doors don't open with fob, when manually open the alarm wont shut down and I can't turn the key in ignition to start it.
ive had a key made and its been to the dealers for three weeks but no luck.
Dealers want me to keep changing parts...
My car doesn't start either and alarm keeps going off which drains ths battery. Someone told me its your wiring under the passenger side footwell which gets wet and croded.
Please let me know how you got on and some advice please.
Has any one experienced a vibration from footwell and wheel..even when stationery?
The car drives and sounds mint but it recently started this
Ive even had wheels balanced too.
Oil levals are good...
Is it normal for the engine to vibrate? As this must be a factor
Jumped in motor today and discovered water under the driver's rubber mat, carpet soaked.
We had heavy rain last couple of days but this never happened before. Any ideas for why this could have happened? No windows or sunroof had been left open.
Just brought the car for a wash. One of those ones that sprays water and wax and a huge hair-dryer when it's all done.
Anyway, sparkly car at the end of it but there must have been a few litres of water in the footwell on the passenger side when it was done. I could see it dripping down from...
hello my car is a 2005 c270 cdi elegance.
i have some water leaking into driver footwell, i have had a look at drains (including under fuse box) and they are fine. The grommet for the bonnet release cable looks a bit cracky but i am wondering if my problem is the missing piece of rubber...
Hi all,
For the last few weeks everytime I accelerate or brake I can hear a lot of water sloshing up and down the passenger side sill - has anyone else experienced this and if so how have you solved the problem?
Can't see how that amount of water would of got in there and why it doesn't...
Have just fitted some new bulbs to my footwell in my 2007 C Class W204.
They flash on and off when I get in the car and stay illuminated whilst driving..
Anyone got any ideas on what's going on?
The new bulbs are white LED style bulbs.
Hi
Before I attack the car with a blunt instrument - any pointers to accessing the wiring duct in the passenger foot well - I want to get at the intermediate connector to install aux audio
Thanks in advance

hello guys, just need a little bit of advice what the next step to take as am really stuck. so I do get water in front pass. footwell and there is a list what has been done to investigate:
1. removed front carpet with foam underneath to dry (soaked)
2. removed front seat
3. removed rear bench...
The carpet in the rear drivers side footwell is soaked. I quite certain that it isn't coming in through the roof or door seal as this is the only area that is wet. The car is normally parked on slight slope and when I moved it this morning and parked it on level ground, I noticed that there was...
Hi I am new to this forum as I have just purchased a 2010 C180 Kompressor. I am after fitting footwell lighting as my model does not have them, I have discovered that the panels in the footwell's have holes for which I presume will house the lighting but was just wondering if anyone knows if the...
