hot

Hello, having driven in traffic in the centre of Norwich on Friday, noticed the front wings of my 2000 W220 320 Petrol were very hot. The bonnet was cool as was all other panels, just the front wings, can anyone explain why please? The temp gauge showed normal. Thanks Carl

My sport line estate c220d smells hot after driving, dealer suggested it might be the particulate filter as these get up to 600 degrees c Got to take it in next week to get checked, just wondered if any one else had noticed theirs smelling hot?

Strange experience today, did my normal commute to work - 55 miles of dual carraigeway / A roads / Villages. Got parked up and notice a rubber burning smell, popped the bonnet and there was a lot of hot air coming off the engine. Went back two hours later and it was still very hot. Engine...

I Know there are several reports of many models having seen this fault over the years, where the drivers side blows hot or warm air and doesn't cool down. I have now had two duovalves replaced under warranty, the second as the first was replaced under warranty and now the warranty has expired...

Hi All, Having recently bought a nice old bus I was expecting to find a few things wrong that would need fixing, took about a week to emerge from its hiding place but an embarrassing 10 mins at the local garden centre saw nothing at all happen:( I had been inside for about 15 mins, came out...

Thought the whole point of having a convertible is enjoying the roof down in fine weather. But in this heat found it more comfortable in having the roof up with the air con on full. All the other convertibles I have seen around in the last day or so have the roof down, or is it those cars just...

R107 300sl going up to 95 degrees after idling for 25 mins, maybe normal! However, coolant is bubbling out over the extension tank and causing the coolant to obviously leak & go down (unless there's another leak!). Am hoping just to replace the tank and cap as where the brass meets the plastic...

Today has been very hot and in traffic the engine radiator temp has been one bar above 80 which i think is 90 and seems normal to me. However when I plugged in the Torque Andriod app it reported the temp around 95 C in traffic. I checked the electric fan in the engine bar and that was...

W215 Cl600 Hi, It gets very hot out here and, when returning to the car after e.g lunch, the aircon doesn't come on for between 5-10 minutes ....... just when you need it! It's fine when starting first thing, in the garage, which is open-fronted but covered from the sun. Does this...

Guys, My C250 cdi centre console gets really hot when driving, to the point where it feels very uncomfortable when your leg rests against it. The car does have the rear digital climate control feature? It's only hot on the drivers side of console.:confused: I have not had chance to pull it...

Hi there Peeps, Any top mechanic or a person who had the similar issue as my car!, its frustrating as i got a new engine put it. one of the mercedes specialist has check it and said it the fuel distributor but that costs a bomb. other forums say its a FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR. FYI i...

Hi, My right wing mirror gets nice and hot, to the point it dries out and stays dry in heavy rain. My left one, while it does warm up, so clears condensation, water droplets stay on it. Coupled with the fact it's further from me, I'm pretty bothered by it as my view is often obstructed by rain...

Hi, I have a 2004 c180 coupe. The problem I have is the air con will only blow hot (28oC) regardless. It has the non digital dual zone via 2 temp dials. I took it to a garage and the re gassed it. They said the system was empty, they checked it for leaks and said there were none. But this...

Hi Guys new to this site so only just finding my feet - i have 57 vito 111cdi with hot start problems - i researched this site and replaced the Cam position sensor but i still have the problem - their is no evidence of leaking injectors so not sure what to do other than replace the crank...

Hi guys my 2001 c270 cdi starts first time and runs perfect but after the engine warms up 10-15mins it will just cut out and i try to restart it and it just keeps cranking but not starting untill the the engines cool again.. can a crankshaft/camshaft sensor cause this? any help much appreciated :)

Hi, My 2003 Vito is making a sparking sound that appears to be just inside the offside wheel arch (at least, that's where it's loudest) when the engine is hot, and the radiator fan never spins anymore. Are these two things related? Anyone know where the fuse is for the radiator fan, as I can't...

I can't figure this one out. Car has done 110k. Cold starts in the morning are no problem. Drive the car up to temperature. Do a short stop off, such as a shopping trip - about 20-30 minutes, car will start, but almost fails to 'catch' and splutters on startup. Drive is perfect. Drive the...
