manually

My powered boot opening closing has just broken for the second time in a month after someone manually closed without pressing the close button! The boot feels limp like something on hinge or spring has detached. First time I took back to dealer and they took all day to fix telling me how...

A lot of us on here have auto transmission and also can manually change up/down but I rarely find a use for it, or is this just me? Maybe some boy-racers use it to hold on to the lowest gear until the revs reach their limit which could have a use for rapid overtaking maybe.

Hi Guys, I've a problem with my gear shift point. When in auto my transmission shifts fine, but when in manual, driving hard, as the revs approach the limiter it doesn't shift up! Even if you lift off slightly or tap for an up shift early it stays in the same gear if you have your foot...

Hi On a 1997 CLK you can select Park, Reverse, Drive. Car drives fine, gearbox fluid fine and changes are smooth. However the shifter knob cannot be moved across from D into 4. It just wont move Any ideas why this could be? thanks Derek

I have a problem with the boot lock on my 1998 SLK 230 Compressor but this isn't the main problem which is that I can't now open the roof as I can't access the vinyl safety flap located in the boot to pull it out. I can't open the boot with the key or central locking. Pushing the lock button...

Hi Guys, you may have been following my exploits so far with my roof handle and the solution i came up with, however i have been unable to apply it to the roof because as i was using the roof one day it stopped opening and just made noises. When i did finally get the roof in a half open state, i...

Hello MB enthusiasts, I have recently bought a 2001 C220 w203 car. I know that the oil level can be checked on the dash board, but I would like to check it manually as well and I have therefore bought a special oil level indicator tool. Long (1 meter) flexible thing. But where should I insert...

I need to 'synchronise' my hood but don't have the manual...I'm using [R129 SL] Electric Window which is helpful but could someone give me more specific directions to unlock and raise the tonneau cover? A mechanic pal suggested I just unhook the battery for 5 mins but I'm nervous that will...

I have a 2005 W211. According to the owner manual, it said to you can manually lock the boot by turning the blade from 12 o'clock to 3 o'clock. I can managed to turn it to 2 o'clock and cannot remove the blade. The blade can be removed only if I turn it back to 12 o'clock. The mechanical lock...

I have a new model UK spec CLK coupe with the standard air con (not the posh climate control). According to the manual putting it in Auto with Aircon on will automatically distribute the air. Perhaps it does for the first few minutes whilst it blows an initial cold blast in different directions...
