Ok, so I checked out some of the earlier posts on here and it seems that the viscous coupling could be a culprit or it sounds like it could be the impellar in the water pump. however, not being an expert I thought it best to double check. Drove the car into work this morning and having hit the...

Right, first hiccup on reassembling the interior. The climate control unit has been out for some time, on reattaching the unit all the buttons work ok but I have no control over temperature. Is there some sort of reset procedure? I did have to pop the cover off the unit to rescue the remnants...

Hi folks, i have a 1995 SL500 with 100,000 on the clock. In the 2 years ive owned the car, it is sometimes reluctant to start when warm. The engine turns but doesnt fire although if i switch off and try a second time it always starts then. A mechanic i spoke to at a show said it sounds like its...

As title. Curious to know as I learned most places do the cold vulcanising method, which limits the options for repairing punctures away from the centre tread. But fitters send discarded tyres away to a place or two where hot vulcanising is used to fully repair and bake the tyre so that it's...

Hello all, First day of ownership and unfortunately a problem has arisen already! After picking the car up all was looking good until I stopped to put petrol in after driving for about 10 minutes and it wouldn't start. I tried it maybe four times and it was turning with a pop coming from the...

Hi there, today in the heat about 26c. My car started to make a horrible vibration/squeeling noise on full lock... literally just started, so I'd assume the Aux belt at the front of the car is starting to slip. It'll be easy enough to change I assume, crack a nut, push over a tensioner, new...

Yet another IT question from me, sorry. My laptop gets quite warm when it's crunching its numbers. The software says CPU temp ~80C. When it gets to 80C the fans go very fast, making quite a noise, but reducing the temperature to 70C. The fan then slows down and seconds later the temperature...
