Ok, no laughing at me!
The car has gone off for an MOT etc today so it's not here for me to look at. However when I was cleaning it the other day I found the retracteable load cover (The one that fastens to the rear of the back seats) However the only place to hook it onto (When extended) was...

Theres plenty of power when the turbo cuts in, when the engine is standstill and i rev it up i dont get any black smoke, ive was told by the last...
I'm selling my 124 230TE so I took it for an early MOT today and it failed on the load sensing valve which was leaking. I didn't get under the car so haven't seen this but I need a new or used part to pass the MOT.
Does anyone have a spare one hanging around?
Also, does anyone know the part...
Anyone got a load liner for my 2004 S211 Avantgarde kicking about that they want to sell?
Would really like the original high sided one.
Happy to pay reasonable price and postage if required.:D
On the W204 sport should both the front head restraints adjust fully down so they are sitting on the seat back ? On mine the driver one will adjust fully down but the passenger one seems to hit a mechanical stop inside the seat just above the first latching position. Presumably they should...

Hi all,
A quick question to those who know these things: I loaded a commercial CD into the NTG 2.5 (6-DVD changer in the head unit) today, first time in a while.
It did not recognize the CD, but shows slot 1 occupied. Try and eject it, it does not come out but then shows slot 1 as empty.
Does...

When going up hill or accelerating from a standstill (so putting a bit of load on the car) I can hear a distinctive whine. It sounds a bit like belt whine. It will only do it under load. As soon as I lift of the pedal the noise stops dead.
It does sound sort of...

Hi,
I've noticed this weekend that if a pull away briskly in my E430, the gear lever moves quite a bit.
My thoughts are that its worn engine mounts (Currently on around 145k) does this sound right, or could it be something else?
Gearbos was removed for a rear main seal replacement about 4k...
This week's W211 problem as follows:
Retractable load cover has decided to ignore all pleadings to retract when the tailgate is raised.
I have searched on here and the collective wisdom falls into two camps. 1. The motor has failed (big job); or 2. the sensor which detect the load cover is...
Reading the MO or not to MO thread got me thinking about something I don't understand in my car's handbook.
E320CDI estate, 2005 vintage. The book states that normal summer tyres are 225/55R16 95W.
However.
The same handbook states for the E320CDI saloon - 225/55/R16 95V.
This puzzles me...
Any tips for removing the half moon plate that sits under the rear wiper arm?
Also, when replacing the rod that runs through the load cover, do I simply take apart the handle and it will slide out of either end?
I've taken photos but it won't let me upload them through the iPhone app.
I had a suspicion that my 6yr old W211 E240 engine speed was fluctuating very slightly from time to time. I could hear a very slight change in engine note.
On a long gentle 40mph incline yterday I spotted it happening on the rev counter - the needle gently fluctuated (wobble?) a couple of times...

Here's one for the panel.
Intermittent rattle from the back of the rear seat, most likely something to do with the retractable load cover. It seems to be somewhere on the n/s, and behind the headrests.
Is there anything in that area which is known to cause rattles/work loose? Or is it more...
You are driving down the M1 (at 67.5 mph) and move to the middle lane to over take two trucks on the inside lane.. Its heavy traffic with vehicles in all lanes but reasonably spaced. Visibility and weather is good.
Suddenly what look like several large roofing tiles sail off the back of the...
