Hi, I'm looking for a better ( slightly louder, but more throaty) exhaust note from my SL55. I've read a few threads on here about similar systems on 55s, but I'm unclear on what can be achieved easily, cost effectively and not fall foul of MOT laws on a SL. Can anyone describe what options...

Hi, I've had my w203 for 6months now and am looking to do some minor cosmetic mods like headlights, rear lights, suspension etc. Can you guys recommend any decent websites that offer quality parts. I know there are loads of sellers on eBay but I never know who to trust and what the...

I'm going to my friends workshop to use his ramp tomorrow. The rear silencer is not very good and looks about ready to fall off. I'm planning to chop this out and put in something that will bring out some more of the V8's grumble. I'm thinking I will keep the two u-bends and just lose...

Hi guys. Can you clear a few things up for me? I've a 2003 clk55. I think I only have one exhaust pipe coming down from the front of my car. I no I've Got primary cats and I've deleted my secondary cats and from there I go straight to my back box(muffler). So: What's a resonator delete...

Just bought an E55 1998. Any mods people suggest for the exhaust to liven them up? Or best to leave them? Many thanks in advance

Hi all, I'm just wondering how to modify my car, I've had the catalytic converter and middle box removed (it wasn't planned at all, but the pipe into the car had rusted to a hole and was spitting, so the exhaust guy suggested a cheaper fix of removing them). I quite like the sound, it's quiet...

Hi everyone, Following months of denial and attempted workarounds it is clear that the glycol contamination in my gearbox means it needs a refurbish. I have tried all of the suggested fixes for the transmission jerk including the ttc solenoid and valve body clean but it is still jerking in...

Hi All Now quite a few of us have had varying degrees of mods lately on the Eurocharged dyno days. I'm just interested in what you guys are thinking of next if anything. I have said a few times before on the Eurocharged thread that I was perfectly happy with my car and hadn't considered any...

As title really? Having come from the NA Honda world where extra horses cost an arm and a leg. I'm wondering if there are many gains to be had with a charger? Curiosity more than anything, the 230 is pokey enough for me standard :)

If you've modified, improved your car, which of the following did you do first?

Sorting out my office, which is currently looking more like a Mercedes store room, thought i,d share the picture of some of my mods lined up for the springtime, theres a fuel line and larger injectors, still stuck in the U.S, but this is the main content here;

Hello, I started wondering the other day, i think the CL500 is maybe a little underpowered for the weight and the CL55K maybe a little overpowered - with regards to getting good MPG, from what i've ready, they do similar MPG and the V12's only getting slightly less than the V8's now if i was...

I've had the S210 for a week now, and have now settled in. My first issue that I discovered is the boots too big! I carry a set of collapsible ladders and they were sliding around. Being heavy I was concerned they would damage something. So slots cut into the load liner and everything now...

Hi guys, as a relative new comer to the world of mercs and specifically R230 SL's and interested in hearing, seeing and discussing any mods, upgrades, changes etc that other members have already done and intend to do. therefore I would like to start a thread where members with a R230 can list...

Hi All, I am having a secondary de-cat on my 2004 E55k system (did this also on my CL500 passed MOT July ok no issues)...however i am also considering rear centre silencer removal (i think this is the resonator). Has anyone else performed this mod on a 55k AMG standard set up? if so what was...

Hello everyone! I've wrote a few different threads since having my car and rather than start another one I thought it would be better to have it all on one as I have a few other things I want to do it in the future :) Picked it up in March '12 after my W203 was written off:(
