After my last stint at goodwood, noticed that one of the bleed nipples was seeping a little, is this just a case of tightening a little more or can i just unscrew and screw a new one on?? its not leaking from the thread, but from the bleeding end.
Brakes is one thing i tend not to tinker with...
I have heard there are a few different methods to fix a leaking roof on a R230 SL500. Mine isn't leaking (touch wood) there is the odd drip near the top corner but that's it. Just curious more than anything, hopefully I won't ever need to try a fix but just in case?
I had a warning flash up asking me to check the window washer fluid level. i topped it up and all was well for a couple of days..... Then the warning popped up again!
It looks like I may have a split in the bottle somewhere. Does anyone know how easy they are to replace?. Looks like a...
Sorry for all the transmission questions...I drove my car around today and then got under it to do some preliminary research on the ATF change.
I then i noticed this strange clear yellowish fluid leaking onto the floor, from the front of the transmission (is that the torque converter)? It was...
Hi all, hope everything is good with you all!?
My wagon has developed a leak around the fuel pump at the front of the engine.
I have changed the three clear fuel pipes for new ones from MB yesterday but the leak is still there:(
It now looks like the leak is coming from the pump itself...
Hi, I am uneducated diesel head. Need help with my 2000 ml270 cdi. Was working on the engine today cleaning and servicing. Put all back together, apart from engine cover and started it. Then I heard a pop noise from the top of the engine. When I went to investigate, there was tiny bursts of air...

The car: 1998 w202 c180 Esprit, 180k miles.
The problem: I have a water leak... Having to fill the coolant reservoir every week... I have checked for cross contamination of water and oil, but both are clean, ie no water in the oils, and no oil in the water...
Hi all,
It was going to happen some day.
I was checking the engine bay over and I think I can see oil running down the side of the engine block?
More so, I think I can see it flows back towards the back of the engine. (A bit difficult to pick up on a camera)
The car is currently driving...
Opened the tailgate last week to find mold on the carpet, i cleanned it all off and dryed out the boot area as it was soaking. Week later its wet again. Could this be leaking through seals whilst standing still or maybe underneath whilst driving? Any1 know of common faults? Thanks
Recently fitted seals to repair front shocks that were leaking - now followed by rear leaking -- I fear there is no similar kit to repair these? - please can you confirm/ deny this and lead me to salvation -- is there a diy fix --- at 250,000 miles getting a bit long in the tooth for expensive...
Dear All,
Gona try again to sell my 1997 SL320 with summer fast approaching. Took the hard top off to test the roof and to my dismay it started leaking oil from the top of the windscreen, just behind the sun visors to be exact, when the roof was operated.
Does anyone have any ideas...
if anyone could help would be great :dk:
i got home and was hearing this loud pisss pisss pisss noise when ticking over . i took the engine cover off and started it up again ,it was loud, i could feel the air coming from the back injector the car has covered over 180.000 miles and was wondering...
Just as I was going out about 20 minutes ago I started the CLK up and sat in it for a few minutes waiting for it to warm up whilst on my phone.
I did the usual which is to put the heated seats on, rear window demist and the hot air. After about 5 minutes I went back into the house to get...

I heard that MB sells paste that stop this leak but very expensive...is this true...
Thought I would post this as I have found it to cure 99% of water ingress via the tailgate or boot. Looking at the seal it looks almost impossible for water to get past it as it stands well proud of where the water would flow. If the outside of the seal is dry,but the inside it dirty and wet I...
