I recently noticed a very faint hot metal smell at speed, say over 90mph - on private roads, naturally ... :crazy:
Is it ball bearings? - I had OSF replaced a few month ago.
I also think it is when the S mode is selected, although I haven't driven in C mode for a while, other than in town...
I've had my 2012 E350 Coupe about three or four weeks. I have a sound coming from the rear passenger side wheel. I generally can only hear it when driving at fairly low speeds. At first I though a rogue bit of bodywork was loose and rubbing against the wheel. I've had a look and can't see...

Folks
If anybody is breaking a 124 Wagon or knows of a set of metal 124 door sill entry plates? Please give me shout. I have the plastic mushroom ones which look okay, but I think that some nice polished metal ones would be better.
Thank you.

Hi
The tips on my exhaust look horrible, last owner must have never touched them so I was wondering what is best to get the black baked on stuff that's on the edges off. I've bought some Autosol but thought I would ask to see if there's anything better so I'm not doing it twice... Anything that...

Having owned my XF-R for just shy of a month now, I thought it'd be worth putting my experience thus far into black and white.

Hi All, I am replacing my upstream O2 sensors on my CLK55, I have the Bosch sensors I bought from my local Merc dealer but I am having trouble trying to find a part number for a metal sensor lead guide that clips onto the sensor.

My genuine centre caps like other I see are starting to corrode.:mad:
I'm looking at replacing them with a new set of genuine one but just came across this site, they appear to be plastic so in theory won't suffer the same fate, has anyone else used these or similar and had good results? or...

Hi guys,
I apologise for asking a question straight off :confused:
Wonder if anyone is able to advise. I have a C320 CDI 2008 (W204) with a 7-speed gearbox which has done 42,000 miles. I was about to have the gearbox oil and filter change, but mechanic then showed me the inside of the rubber...
Hey everyone.
Strange question this but I intend on changing my ARB bushes but have read horror stories regarding bolts shearing off etc.
what kind of item could I use to heat up the metal sufficiently to reduce the risk of shearing the bolts. Would a torch a plumber used to solder be ok to...
Hi Guys,
Different day, different question!
The metal window trim around the rear quarter window is coming off, it's still attached around the bottom but as it goes up and around the window it's come off. I've tried to clip it back in but it doesn't stay, does any one know if they used some...
Hi to the group.
My local mechanic was going to replace the rubber brake lines on my daughters A140 following finding that it had a split in it. The problem is that corrosion has got hold of the associate nut on the metal pipe and even mole grips can't get it off. This mean brute force is...
