Hi, just bought an E320 (bit of an impulse buy but its a lovely car) but the key is a bit stiff/finicky to remove from the barrel I had a right nightmare with the key on my 190 a few years back so I'm a bit paranoid! Should I just oil it and forget or get it changed? The car has one of...

My C36 journey continues... We've got the engine back together, it turns over but won't spark and we've got it down to the wiring loom for the ignition coil packs. Is there a repair kit for this and if there is, where are they sold? Aren't these the same wiring looms as the W124?

Hi there, I've got a clicking sounds coming from the rear right hand side of the car when I turn on the ignition. Lasts for about ten seconds. Garage says it's likely to be the power supply control unit, which determines which battery to charge. Problem is - it's 557 plus VAT to replace...

Hi All, I've got quite a loud clicking sound coming from the off-side rear of a 2002 R230 SL55 when I start the car. Only lasts about 10 seconds. I've been told it's probably a Power Control Unit, which will be 557 plus VAT to replace (!). Any ideas before biting the bullet?

I got out at a Petrol station and my Remote Fob key refused to lock my Drver's door, tried starting the car and steering wheel locked and no ignition no matter how hard I tried. AA man said car battery and fuses OK and after an hour admitted defeat and said Remte key probably de-programmed. Car...

> I've been trying to remove this lock, as I have a new one that doesn't get stuck everytime the missus goes to Tescos. But this is as far as I've got, And i can't get any further. I sort of know about the grooves and trying to force some springs in the back, but I can't get em to release...

In this hot weather my 230 TE is misfiring, only intermittent, but not sure what's causing it, any ideas?

Just noticed this the other day; the car cannot tell you the time unless you put the ignition on, is that right? Sure, you can switch on the audio without the key in but unless you put it in and turn it to the Acc position it actively refuses to show the time on the main display. Even a 1978...

Drove car for approx. 90 minutes this morning and noticed the ignition key was v. warm when I took it out. Felt the barrel where the key goes in and it was the same. Is this normal? Couldn't find my keys this morning so used a single spare key where I'd usually have a couple of keys and a...

This is my car.......and i love her. Look at how happy she looks sat by the side of the road waiting to be driven. Look at how original she is, at the natural gloss of her beautiful paint work. And she's not just a pretty face. Despite her 18 years and 186k miles she is a hard worker. Who...

When starting the car yesterday (it had been running for about 10 minutes prior to this but I had pulled into a layby to sort out a 'phone problem)I found that the starter did not engage. The fuel guage needle rose and the normal dashboard lights were illuminated except for the gear position...

Hi First time poster! My lovely 1998 Merc E250 Diesel was broken into yesterday, the idiots broke both door locks and the ignition barrel in their attempts to steal what is to anyone but me, a worthless old car. Does anyone out there fit replacement locks/ignition barrels and how quickly...
