Just wanted to drop a quick post to say thanks to Ollie and Jack at Prestige Car Services who sorted out my EClass today. I was really impressed by there proffesional and friendly approach, I would go so far as to say it was the best service I have had from any garage (and I have been to a few...

I brought a set of 19" rims and tyres last year to use as a summer wheel on my W211 E55, and don,t wish to use the OEM in car jack all the time whilst changing the wheels back and fro, and need to buy a trolley jack as good weather may soon be with us, hopefully. Anyone advise to the lifting...

I'm interested to know how many owners got a wheel jack, a space saver wheel & compressor when they bought their SLK32AMG or C32AMG? (Its standard on the non amg cars) Or did people opt, or just get issued with a can of Tyre Foam pucture repair and a compressor to reinflate damaged tyre as...

So went and bought a W211 2008 220 cdi today (pick up next week) and having scoured the forum for info I am still puzzled about whether there is a reasonably priced solution to allow me to actually control the ipod and see tracks etc. through the screen? I am not sure of all the tech jargon...

hi all One of my rubber jack points is missing. I have a W202 C230K - are they easy to replace? ta Andy Mac

My W202 was booked in for an ATF change, and to release a seized bolt on the gearbox pan..both problems fixed easily, and efficiently..... Olly also showed me a CLK with a broken crank shaft pulley, and how to spot one. Which looked just like mine, we noticed....... He managed not only to get...

Hi All, Just wanted to say thanks to Olly and Jack for diagnosing a few faults with the car. "I had this annoying noise that would only manifest itself after 80mph I thought it came from the rear tyres (suspension?) boy was I wrong... Turns out it was part of the trim on the roof...

I'm sorry to have to ask this but i've searched and searched with no luck... Could someone point me in the direction of instructions for the '2 jack' method of removing springs from my W202? I know it's not the safest way but i've done worse before and it's a nightmare getting the correct tool...

Hi Everyone! Like the title says, I'm looking for a set of jack point covers that pop into the rocker panels. please contact me via reply, email at [email protected] or call at 780 819 5657 . Canada Thanks

I bought one of these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Jack-pad-tool-for-Mercedes-W221-W216-W251-W164-X164_W0QQitemZ330240752070QQihZ014QQcategoryZ43998QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem as I change the wheels twice a year, (summer / winter tyres ), using a trolley jack. Makes...

hi all bought myself a small/cheap trolley jack and it does not lift high enough! What do they say - buy cheap buy twice!! so i am after a trolley jack like you see in the tyre change places. lif high enough and have a long handle too. Have seen one in halfords for 90 notes but; given how...

Hi guys, Many of you will be thinking this is a stupid question, but where is the jack point on a Shogun V63000 ? On most cars there is a clearly marked position but on my girlfriends 4x4 there is no indication where to ut the jack. I have a bottle jack with a concaved cup at the top. It...

This is not too technical, just a curiosity really. For doing a front / rear tyre swap on a C class, do you mechanical guys who do this on a regular basis, prefer to use the trolley jack under the diff or rear wishbone ? If so, do you recommend a piece of wood between the jack plate and the...

All, just picked up a c200K coupe 03 plate from an independant dealer a few days ago. When i looked in the spare wheel compartment i noticed that there is no vehicle tool kit, wheel chock, jack etc. When i look at the online MB manual here...

Not sure if any other models use the same but I am looking for £15 delivered. Any takers drop me a PM. If not its in the bin. Alternatively if you are in or around Burton on trent then you may collect and take away for £5 :)

Spent Sunday with the wheels off giving them a good clean and painting the brake calipers (well, only got two done :( ). I realised I should really be using axle stands and not the emergency jack, especially as I needed to rotate the rear wheels. So, where from? I'm not a mechanic and this...

I've found what looks like a mini-headphone jack inside my glovebox. Don't know whether it is some after-market fitment or came with the car. No reference to it anywhere in the owner's manuals. Any ideas? Anyone know what an iPod connection looks like?

Hi, Is it standard practice to use a trolley jack located under the diff to lift both rear wheels simultaneously? If done correctly, I assume this does not damage the diff. Thoughts? DB1

Well I have read through the forums, even searched google, but for the life of me I cannot confirm if the car (Which I have just bought, but not yet got) has the aux jack in the glove box? I had the saleman looking, I had their senior engineer looking, neither can find the jack. Saleman also...
