Hi all, hopefully someone might be able to help with the following problems I'm having with my 1986 300SL: 1. Driving at speeds above 40 miles per hour the car starts to resist further acceleration - it almost feels like the brakes are pulsing on and off, and the car feels quite heavy...

Hi guys any ideas for a good mechanic i manchester for year 2000 S 320. Air con not cooling at all was working well last year. Any suggestions

I've never really noticed this before but driving around today I noticed a weird noise from the headlight switch area. It's like a gas discharge noise. Hard to explain. It might be normal but I've never heard it before. And what puzzled me more was if I accelerate then it disappears. And as soon...

Seems like the gas struts on my C-class estate (203) are due for change as I have to help them to lift the tailgate. And I know I'm going to bang my head on it soon, as it won't lift to full height without a shove! Are there any uprated ones available, or have the standard ones been...

I have an S211 without the magic powered opening tailgate. Can anyone confirm for me that the tailgate should lift itself up once I've opened it a bit? Mine will hold itself up but needs pushing right from opening to full height. I suspect the gas struts are getting a bit tired. I have the WIS...

I have this very irritating problem. Whenever I go to the gas station for refueling gas. The gas pump keeps stop pumping fuel like it sense that the fuel in the tank is full which is not full! What is causing this?

Hi All, About to attempt this job so was hoping if anyone here has actually done it on a 211. I see there are a few posts on how to do it on previous versions of the E Class Estate, but can't find any guides for the 211. If anyone that has done it would be kind enough to offer some words of...

Hi I have recently got my first car, A140 (2000) petrol. I was wondering if it's possible to adjust the gas pedal so that what it accelerates now when pushing it down 10 inches, will do the same performance with say 5-7 inches down. So the movement of the pedal is decreased. Apologies if I...

Does anyone know whether I should be able to get a four gas analysis diagnostic report done at any mot centre, or do I need to go to mercedes specialist/dealer?? I have a CLK 230K and need the report to try and cover warranty on failed cat converter. Help please, starting to pull my hair out...

Hi, My first posting, so be gentle! I have a 1992 300TE 24V with Diavia air conditioning system fitted through Mercedes some time after the car was new (not sure when). I would like to get the system regassed, but after an engine steam clean about 4 years ago the green Diavia label in the...

My 220ce needs re gassing (I think). Anyone know how I find out what kind of gas is in it?? It's a 1994 220ce Thanks

It would appear that older air-con systems have a now banned type of gas in them, anyone know when the cut-off date was as far as Mercedes cars are concerned ? :dk:
