Recently bought an e55. Few small problems I intend to work through to get her completely perfect again.
Arimatic symptoms:
Rear or front of the car won't raise.
Rear is lower than the front.
Dash says "car raising" then the visit work shop
Relay replaced as old one was dead...
My SL has the optional power boot opener/closer. Sometimes the feature doesn't work - pull the boot handle & it unlocks but doesn't lift. Other times it won't close when I press the button to close but I do hear a clunk (like a heavy relay) from the area of the roof pump / PSE.
No major prob...
Had the car for a little over a week and 800 miles now and I've pinned the clonking at the front to a lower ball joint, the front one of the 2, on the end of an alloy arm. This one. Can someone tell me what this is called so I can order one, and is it a DIY job? Thank you in advance.
Hi all,
Can I get some advice on changing the brake fluid on my 2007 CLK280 sport.
I saw on a w208 topic that the sequence of bleeding those models is:
Rear right
Rear left
Front right
Front left
I don't know if this is the same for our 209's and also whether this sequence is only correct for...
A new car will be on the horizon in July. One of the options I am considering is the E63 for circa £15k..
What running costs can I expect? Obviously MPG is rubbish. How about brakes and pads all round, tyres, suspension bits?
How much does the servicing cost? What things go wrong on these...
Does anyone have any good recommendations for a car audio installer that has installed reversing cameras into a Mercedes?
Areas considered; Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh,
Glasgow or anywhere in between.
Thanks.
Hi Mercedes Brothers & Sisters!
I have a W202 Mercedes, 1997 C200 Classic / Elegance.
It's covered 200,000 miles but overall is fairly trusty.
Recently the car battery light has started coming on - intermittently.
Definitely more likely to happen upon "cold" - first usage of the day.

Hi anyone in the Coventry area got a fault code reader as may have a transmission fault. Would like to see codes before just getting fluid replaced. Thanks in advance.
Hi all,
Last week my 2008 320 decided it didn't want to start, i would turn the key but nothing happened, no ignition lights.
My local garage came out and diagnosed this as ESL failure.

Hi everyone,
Need a small favour if any of you regularly travel from Manchester to London/Hampshire area, either way.
Looking for someone to help me transport a Steering wheel with airbag, seeing that all delivery companies have airbags on their restricted list.
Beer monies paid.

Ok, so I'm considering some new wheels for my E320 (W211) just to freshen it up.
The thing is I don't want anything fussy or that needs the car to be an inch off the ground for them to look good. I'd been looking at some OEM style wheels as I don't want to spend fortunes either.
I'm sure...
Hi, I have a 1999 CLK 320 and for the past few months I've been chasing a problem with the car but so far to no avail. Starting to lose my marbles now so I'm really hoping someone can help.
On startup the car is fine, however occasionally when exceeding around 4000rpm the car suddenly loses...
Hi all,
I would appreciate it if anyone can recommend where to get a replacement Comand Unit for a 209 CLK in London.
Mine was tested by a specialist repairer and deemed beyond repair as the MOST output is not working.
I have the Logic 7 HK system (Amp and many speakers).
Required Part...
I ordered a new Mercedes C200 Premium Sports @36k in Oct 2016 and was told the delivery is expected on 13 Feb 2017.
Now I was just told the car could only finish manufacturing by end of March and the delivery to me will take even longer.
Sales is just informing on this without offering...
