frustration

This bloody car is doing my nut! 2009 CLS 320cdi. Bought with 44k on the clock. Handling is dreadful. Car rolls around on poor and uneven surfaces like it's on four spacehoppers. It's had four new springs fitted by MB and has four new Pirelli P7's too. MB have done full tracking and alignment -...

So in my second month of ownership of the AMG and loving it, except for the issues I have encountered. As Eurocharged is round the corner from me I took it to the knowledgeable guys down there to cast their eyes over it. During the inspection they started the car and found that it makes a...

Having always had an empty ASD reservoir on my 124 300CE ever since I got the car I decided, in my wisdom, that as the last job in a very long renovation I would fill the reservoir and see what happens. Firstly and predictably there's a leak! It's from one of the rigid pipes that goes into...

Never before have I found it so difficult to give someone my money :wallbash: Over the past few weeks I've been looking at the A45 with the hope of placing an order. Called several dealers all across the country to see what the best deal they could do on my spec. Someone I know bought one from...

How mad is this. Left UK to live in Turkey 16 years ago with a full UK License. It expired a few years back (3 or 4) and needed a new picture to renew so in essence being in Turkey just used the old as it's no big deal with their police ;) Now returned to UK with a temporary "one use"...

Well, some degree of success. Injectors, great news. Battery drain, more clues but no progress. I have a current drain through fuse 9 - fuse 9 only - all others removed individually with no change. About 400 mA. I've traced it down to the comfort module but not beyond that. Why? Because I've...

Living in France, I need a SatNav to get around to places that I am not familiar with. Yesterday I trusted the Comand in my W203 to get me to a village, (not too far from where I live) and find an actual street. Before too long I was tearing my hair out in frustration. I was directed to turn...

It was dawn and I was just enjoying a nice purple sunset, cruising along at 70 mph in my 99 C230k sport. I was driving down a rather empty 4 lane highway and come up behind this old and tattered albeit lowered and square exhaust adorned e36 M3. It looked beat up, wheels were dirty, wasn't...

No not with the car, my new CLS is sitting on my drive and I can't drive it until the lease company come and pick the old one up, which will be "somewhere between 9.00am and 5.00pm'. Aaaaargh :crazy: Consoling myself with reading the manual and running out and pressing buttons every time I...

I have a P Reg Mercedes C250 Turbo Diesel Estate, the central locking is not working properly. I have 2 keys, one is broken and the other one I think is going to brake (not the actual metal key but the plastic button unit). I will now try and explain what is wrong with my central locking: When...

So my new iPhone 4 finally arrived... It's been a frustrating few hours installing iTunes, trying to remember my account there, resetting it, etc... Now I have an issue, I'm trying to order my free bumper/case, and have downloaded the app (I already miss the back button from the Desire...

Hi, I have a c270 cdi about 4 months old, a few weeks ago (when it got cold) it started for 2 seconds then stopped, and wouldn't start. being under warranty from the dealer I got it towed and my local garage replaced the fuel pump, mostly covered by warranty but still cost me £110, i was happy...

Virgin blog here... Just acquired a 06 C class **********e estate with DVD Comand system, yet can't seem to be able to enter a full postcode. From checking a few blogs its seems to be a failing on Merc's part, am I correct ? can this be sorted ? So far the Sat Nav's not a match for the tom...
