Hi, due to the cooler pipes rusting thru I think I lost most of the ATF in the gearbox (98 C280 722.6). I drove about 60 miles experiencing the usual symptoms, losing drive, flaring, not selecting any gear etc. I topped up the levels but noticed a burnt smell coming from the filler pipe. Have I...

Hi All I have had some major issues with my C32 and will take you through them and what was done to rectify them. Before talking the car to George Fraser I changed the intercooler pump to a Johnson type as mine failed and it felt like I was running on 155BHP :) Back in Nov 2010 I had a major...

Just had a major service with new pollen filter and diesel filter fitted. What exactly is the difference between a major and a minor service apart from the bloody cost. £389 for service, £98 pollen filter ( £75 just to fit it,wtf ) and £50 derv filter. Seems to me they both have oil and filter...

When going along I get a "WALALALALALLA" noise. It doesn't change in volume much but the pitch changes. It's as loud as the diesel engine! It's from the rear, so that's bearings, diff or prop shaft? Today I jacked up both wheels and had my mam rev the engine while I went under with the...

It appears I am not the only one that's noticed the shortage of new cars on sale in showrooms round the country. :eek: OK if you buy the only one sitting in the showroom in a colour you don't like, overspecced with unnecessary gismos putting thousands on the list price, and not a V6 petrol in...
