Hi Guys,
Does anyone know what the definitive values are supposed to be for the ML270 in terms of wheel alignment (possibly a question for WIM).
At the weekend I had the alignment checked on a Hunters machine at my local branch of North eastern tyres and Exhausts in Knaresborough and got the...

Hi a few weeks after I had my ML270 I noticed that the rear drivers side wheel looked like the top of the wheel was leaning out a positive camber and have now noticed that the outside of the brand new tyre that was on it is starting to wear. I've been quoted about £150 to rectify this and was...

Hi I've got another little problem with my ml270 which is hard to explain. The engine idles rough when in Drive but stopped like waiting at a junction, it's like it needs to get going. When braking it also seems to struggle like it's got warped discs. It brakes like I'm pressing the pedal on...
Hi all can anyone help ?
I have a knackered no2 injector and have never removed one before.
I have noticed that watching videos on you tube that you unscrew the electrical top part then lift out the part underneath with the spinner to access where you would screw in an extractor.

Hi everyone had my 2002 ml270 for a month now and it's needed quite a lot of work so far which I expected for the price I paid for the car. Work I've done so far is new fuel lines, brake servo, and removed the swirl flaps from inlet manifold (what a job!!!) Engine oil and filter, gearbox oil and...

Apart from debating whether to change the motor or...
