Hi Gang,
Having a clear out last weekend I found a few new spares that I'd forgotten about that I bought for my 300TE which I sold last year.
1x set of new genuine MB front anti roll bar bushes - inner and outer.
Part numbers:
A124 323 45 85 x2
A124 323 50 85 x2
A common wear...
Hmm.
Ever since I've had my W203 estate, one by one, each junction in the rear washer system has spat its hose off at some stage. Initially it was at the bulkhead, behind the battery. Then at the joinder behind the cubby hole in the boot. Then at the wiper motor. Earlier in the week, the...
Hi all.
I am now an agent for BMC air filters and Goodridge stainless steel brake hoses.
I was approached by them and after seeing and trying both of their products I am happy to say the quality is excellent.

On my previous cars.
The heater hoses have ran through the bulkhead from the thermostat, then exited in the same place from a pipe underneath.
I've tee'd into both the feed and return and never had any issues with overheating or the vapouriser not getting enough heating etc.
The Mercedes...
I've just picked up an E320 (200k miles) and want to do a once round of the age related things.
Most of them I'm ok with (fluids, front wheel bearings, bushes etc) but I also want to change all the coolant hoses as they look and feel a bit sad. I've looked at all the part suppliers I can find...
Hi guys,
The car has ran over 600miles at weekend alone and done great, but my abs light came on (another post....dealing with it) but the car clunks when going from park into drive when on my sloped drive way, never on flat ground. So I thought id investigate and the pipes from the auto box...
:doh:
Hmm, what a mission today.
It seems that my CDI just loves to fall apart, I noticed a boost leak, well heard it actually, by the time I got home, got it on the ramps & then dropped the undertray, the boost hose from the Turbo to the IC has a 3" split just on the elbow.
Merc love...
Hello all,
Ive noticed a smell of diesel recently when driving my car, which i thought could have been where i spilt some when i replaced the filters the other week, but a couple of days ago i stopped at some traffic lights at night and i could see clouds of smoke coming through the grill...
Hi, MOT time and glad to say a pass but advisory was rear brake hoses perishing, i am in the process of ordering them and wanted info about upgrading my brake fluid to silicone 5.5 brake fluid will it do any harm to abs system ?????:dk:
Popped the C43 down to Olly at the weekend for a checkup and a couple of bits,
a) Really good to see his C43, I think that was something like 1% of RHD saloons together in one place :D Always good to see one in better nick than your own, provides both motivation and ideas..
b) When I...
:wallbash:
I have been advised that the random misfire and hunting is due to worn breather hoses on my C180K. Dealers want a small fortune to replace both hoses which only cost £16(parts only). I know these hoses are situated under air box, however after taking the six screws off air box cover...
I want to change the air intake hoses in the engine bay.
The original ones are made of a degradable material and as such are wasting away.
The ones used on the R129 SL however were plastic, and also the 5.0 M119 engine was used in the 500.
Will the 129 hoses fit on my car?
124 Part No. -...
I've seen the various boy-racer cars with the fancy blue silicon hoses for their intercoolers and turbos.
What I want to know is whether I'd see any improvement in my 2002 SLK230K by fitting them. The existing pipe are a little tatty and will probably benefit from a good cleanout inside, but I...
I have just had made, some braided brake hoses for my 202. They are made by Goodridge and of the highest quality.
They used to do them for the 202 but there was some problem with them so they stopped production.
I can now offer them via PCS either supplied or supplied and fitted. The kit is...
as per title, mine is a 03 car and as read sometimes on this forum it's quite common a bad tightness of the diesel hoses in way of the diesel filter and/or HP pump in front of the common rail, just over the service belts.
said that, I've noted an oily dirt in way of the HP pump and hoses, in...
Can any one advise me where the engine breather hoses are, (or better still attach a diagram) on a 1990 190e 2.5 16v.At the minute the engine has a bit back pressure, compression readings are 3 x 200psi & 1 @ 190psi and uses about 1 litre of oil per 3000 mile so engine wear doesn't seem to be...
Does anybody know which coolant hoses would be best to tee in a heat exchanger for heating veg oil.
I'm probably looking at getting the hottest water so maybe the ones to the heater matrix would be best.
Am i right in thinking the pipes leading to the solenoid valves are the ones to go for?
