leaking

As the title says I have just replaced and repaired my leaking front struts on my W220 S500 but now there still seems to be problems. I always thought that the pump came on to often (not that I know how much times it should come on). The problems are (i) the pump still comes on every time I...

I have a 1987 300D which is auto and has the OM603 engine. The rear crank seal is starting to go as I have noticed a few drops of oil on the garage floor and it is engine oil coming from between the engine and gearbox. How long should I leave this as there is not a lot of oil, but it can only...

As if I have not got enough problems with my engine misfiring at tickover, (still being looked at) now the rear window washers have packed up! the pump is working, as is the front pump, the front washers are working ok, but as soon as I top the washer container up, its running away, and...

Is this normal at 167K? Whilst changing the oil at the weekend, there was a drip of oil coming from the front drivers side corner of the intercooler. Is this always the case with high mileages or is the intercooler split?. She does smoke a bit when its booted, but I put this down to both cats...

I have noticed a small leak from the front of the car.... it appears to be coming from the part that turns the fan..... is this the water pump????

Hi all, I have a 2000 CLK W208 (63K on the clock) and last night I was heading out and turned the Air con on and all of a sudden water (ice cold fluid) started flowing into the passenger footwell. This eventually stopped but am none the wiser as to why or what this could be?!?!? But when I...

Hi, wasn't too sure where to post this thread but here goes! I'm new to the world of this great small car! I purchased it from a dealer many miles away from where i live and have just found that the car appears to be getting wet inside the passenger footwell:confused: . It seems to be dripping...

Hi Today my 190 sprung a leak! After some investigation I discovered that this creamy coloured plastic bit is the culprit. I assume it is part of the heating plumbing, as it is high up above the engine just behind the engine bay bulkhead. Could someone tell me what it is as I imagine I will...

Soft tops on, car was parked overnight on a slight slope ie the drivers door is higher than the passenger door - it did rain heavily BUT whats weird is the only part that is sodden is the yellow circled part the door card is dry as is the inside of the window and the seat. Could it be a...

Hi All, Well, after a year of relatively trouble free motoring I guess I was due a fault. Car is a W124 E300 Diesel Estate Auto. Bit of a tricky one for me as well, I've sprung a leak from what I believe is an Auto Transmission Cooling pipe (since my transmission fluid levels have...

Hello again. I just thought I would start a thread about a recent repair on a forum members CLK500. Thanks to Greg for letting me put this up. The gearbox was leaking from the torque converter seal area and was diagnosed at a dealer. It is quite an unusual place for a leak to occur but not...

I had my Air Con recharged about 2 weeks ago and it has got warmer again. I originally took it to Kwik Fit and there print out said "No Leaks Detected" So i went back today. A different guy looked at it this time and said my Low Pressure Valve Cap is missing and could have dirt in the valve. He...

Can anyone help with this? A Mum on our school run has an X plate W210 estate which has been crippled (she says) because water leaked through the roof bar fittings into the ATF? Is this possible and if so how? We've recommended they consult Olly, of course and I do know that their car...

When I wash the car and then open boot lid water flows out of the rear of the fog lights or boot lock and into the boot. Any idea where this could be getting in. I have removed the inside trim and used a torch to see if I could see gaps but nothing obvious. It is like it is trapped in there...
