marks

The 18" AMG alloys on my new C180 AMG Sport Plus are developing a defect on the rims. This is very disappointing as I love these wheels and was intending on keeping them absolutely pristine, now they are starting to look like the get kerbed every day. I'll be in touch with the dealer about...

Can anybody tell me where the max and min marks are on the 210 coolant bottle? I can't see them anywhere. :o The handbook is no use, either. :(

Hi Guys, With the Games finally here (well almost!), we’ve decided to give out our own kind of medals! – it’s simple – The More You Spend The More You Save :D .... being a forum member the offers that are likely to appeal to you most are the 30% off ‘gold medal’ offer and our on-going ‘30% of...

My recent CLS acquisition is my first time owning a black car and I'm a little disappointed to see lots of tiny but visible swirl marks mainly but not exclusively on the boot and bonnet when the sun comes out (albeit this doesn't happen a great deal round here at the moment!). No doubt due to...

Hi all, 03 vito 112 cdi series1, trying to remove cylinder head and confused by the crank pulley timing marks. Here goes with my problem, hopefully someone can put me on the path to enlightenment. With punch marks on both cams lined up, 2 marks on cam sprockets lined up and scribe line on crank...

Woke up this morning to notice that someone has left a black scuff mark, probably by pulling out behind me, on my rear, right corner bumper. Its a silver W221. Can anyone tell me the most cost effective way of removing it, without leaving too many marks on the bumper. Thanks in advance.

Just looking for some info on the timing marks for a OM605 engine. I have the crank at 0, the two marks on the cams across from each other so the pin fits it. However the engine locks up when trying the turn it by hand? Any help appreciated. Thanks

My car really needs some tlc now, I have today available to go the Halfords and buy some products and have go myself at detailing but I don't have a power tool polisher, can I get the swirls out without one or should I just get it detailed by a professional? Reading other threads this seems...

I have a friend that has just done the head on a W202 C36 AMG and he needs to know which timing marks do you use because Mercedes don't have any information on the matter, only that it's the same as the C280? :confused: Any help would be greatly appreciated :thumb:

Hi, Well, I've used every sane household product that I can think of to shift what remains of a self-adhesive disk (Tom Tom Mount) left by the last owner. Is there a product I can use that is aggressive enough to lift what I presume is the remains of glue without ruining the dash? Ta Gary

Car insurance came up for renewal. Last year M+S was very competitive; at renewal time they were way off - significantly more expensive. It is one of these auto renewal policies - you have to call them NOT to renew. I called them; rep took the security details then said I needed to talk to...

OK decided to attack the grime-black (supposed to be silver :o) alloys on the Audi today. Wonder Wheels has done a pretty good job, but one of them still has a fair bit of baked-on grime that is taking ages to shift. I've done that wheel four or five times so far, scrubbing away for hours...

Guys, can anyone recommend any spray or detergent which will be able to get rid of the marks below. I don't want to use anything too strong as the cloth on the door is very thin. Let me know please. Ta

Hey there all, On my w221 s class, there are a lot of permanent marks on the external pillars (between the windows.) I've attached the picture; it's got a very strange texture to it. Any idea what this is and how to get them off? It's on all 4 panels on both sides of the car. the chrome...

Had my W202 in for a B service at the weekend. Have to say that Paul excelled himself again. Everything was handled with complete ease and he even did a few extras (adjusted parking break, fitted new rear pads and ran a test on STAR) without charging me the earth. Paul's a top bloke and...

Hi all, Well I thought I post some pics of the new car up so..... Spec is 1.6 16V Twin Electric sun roofs Cruise control Privacy glass Aircon CD/MP3 with split front/rear audio system Parrot hands 3100 handsfree Plus all the normal bits and bobs I have shown in the pictures just...

Hi Hope one of you knowledgable Guys or Gals can help. In my SLK I have the 'rough' trim (cant remember what exactly its called - will look in the literature tonight) that is kinda like rough leather. The problem is that it scuff's and show fingerprints really easily and I cant clean...

Greetings! I have been cracking my head on a site I'm working on, then I realised, this entire forumn is written in PHP so someonemight be able to help me. I've been trying to open a file (containing html), output the contents as they would be see (preview style), then output the contents with...

Well, it happened. My car broke down (first MB to ever let me down) and I just wanted to sing the praises of the Mobilo service. The car was towed away within 2 hours of the first call - with failed injectors. A brand new E270 CDI estate is now outside my office, and that has taken 5...
