Well its that time again. Hunt the locking wheel nut. I spent an hour searching for this elusive item this afternoon. Only to find it hidden under the carpet :crazy:. I asked the owner beforehand where it was, to be told, "in the car". I should have asked "where in the s0dding car". Please...

Hey all. I'm in West Sussex, and have just installed my new (W203 Coupe) Facelift Comand APS. I have also installed the MB iPod kit for it. Is there anyone local who has the Star Diagnostic who can help me out updating the software, for little or no fee? Don't really wanna spent the money at...

I received a warning letter from the local police yesterday saying that a community partnership volunteer clocked my speed on chobham road as over 30mph and that I wouldnt be prosecuted this time! Now, I remember seeing an elderly man lurking in the bushes on the day in question. He pointed...

Car is a w203 just over 12 months old and with 30k on the clock, the Pad warning light came on yesterday (although it has not been on today...) so looks like I need some pads changing. 1) Do I HAVE to have this done by MB dealer to keep my warranty intact ? 2) If I have a local do it (the...

Just had a B Service done by the local garage I got the Merc from - would normally do myself but car has 12 months warranty, should be taken back to them for any warranty work (they deal with the warranty co etc) and I need a "official" service for the warranty. Worked out quite well - got...

My c220 cdi will not start. Can some one advice me to find a local MB garrage. I dont want to go to the MB Showroom. heard it is expensive.

I've bought quite a few sets of tyres over the years. Is it me or has the gap between online and local outfits widened? I only ask this as I've never bought tyres off the 'net before (in this case, mytyres.co.uk) Normally with a bit of ringing round the local outifts I've managed to...
