My W211 (2002) E270 CDi (92k) has developed an occasional hot starting problem. If engine is fully warmed up and I stop it for a few minutes sometimes it won't start again. Starter motor turns over very quickly but engine doesn't catch. If I leave it for a while then it starts again no problem...

Guy's, Noticed tonight and come to think of it over the past month or so the temp never gets up to the 80 mark when the car is being driven, in fact tonight it was around the 60 mark most of the time. It only reached the 80 mark climbing up hill. Is this a sign that the thermostat is on its way...

Hi all, My 1990 W124 has been blowing only hot air from the heater for the last couple of months. I recently bought a secondhand Duovalve from a Merc parts specialist on Ebay, which was said to be working. I changed the valve today and its still only blowing hot air. Hot water is going past...
