odd

I have an a-class 150 2006. I got it in june and it's been into the garage constantly for a grinding noise when steering. I've had bearings tightened, a new rod and a steering column and it's still there. It's booked in again for 16th but just wondered if anyone else had experienced a similar...

This is on the converted diesel 107 SL. Once in the dim past (last month) when I tried to start the car in the garage the battery was completely flat. Charged it up and everything fine until... On Sunday last at the 124Day at Windermere the car started fine first thing and drove to the...

So recently the passenger mirror has stopped dipping when the car is in reverse. Tried switching sides on the mirror selector switch but no joy. Also I now cant close or open the windows using the key fob. Any ideas as to what's going on? Car is 2008 E320 CDI W211

Here's what I would consider an odd Kompressor fault on my W202 C230K. It's losing power suddenly at approx 4500RPM, loss of pressure from the compressor, back off and the car drives like an N/A. Stop, switch the ignition off & restart all is perfect until similar high rev's. Now, I know full...

If I use the key in any of the door locks, everything works OK - all doors and boot lid lock/unlock. If I use the key in the boot lid, only the boot is unlocked/locked. Seems to be a recent occurrence, but I have some vague feeling that it is possible to do this deliberately, but I have no idea...

Mercedes-Benz SL 500 Roadster, "Affalterbach" AMG Conversion | eBay Doesn't float my boat. Spent £30,000+ on converting it to look like an R230 '63 apparently. Could have bought a very nice SL55 or even a '65 for that! :wallbash:

Can't find the original thread, so the latest after a day at the dealers is. Fault was the same as last time - so the split vacum hoses might well have helped trigger it but something else did this time. Fault still points towards the EGR valve as being the issue, however it passes it's self...

OK, after the £640 lifted from me for vacum hoses, and a new set of glow plugs - it's back doing the same thing again. No Check Engine light on, but in limp mode. When it's not in limp mode it runs fine, but when it's warmed up and stationary in Park - the idle is like it's hunting - very...

Hi guys, got a strange one (well i think so)....the rear nearside tyre has worn considerably quicker than the offside. Virtually to the wear indicator (evenly across the whole tyre) whereas the offside has a good 4mm left across the whole tyre...! Is this bad rear geometry....or is the rear...

Hello, I turn off the cabin light facility while the doors open as I don't use it and like to save the battery for the cold start, but once in awhile, when I go into the car, the light is switch on again? I turn it off with the light console above and its fine again for few days, then again...

Yesterday a few of the instruments readings on my W124 stopped working. Fuel, oil pressure, temperature - all kaput :mad: But, the speedo still works, as does the odometer.:) The rev counter is also bust:(, but the clock is still keeping excellent time:cool:.....Any ideas on cause and fix?

Noticed over the weekend that a new noise has appeared whilst the roof is in transit... either up or down... no change in movement / speed / operation in any way... so is this something that needs lubrication or am i about to discover the pain of failure?

On S211. Dash started to say "convenience functions disabled" etc during 10ml run yesterday. Hard wired Fluke meter into battery to monitor and this is happening: After static charge from mains, voltage reads 12.5 steady. It will hold this overnight. Start car and reading is 13.99 max...

My W212 is in for its first service today and I'd reported one issue with it that I wanted looked at: In cold conditions (i.e. <5c) the front window lifts are extremely slow and, if you open either of the windows partially then pull the switch to raise it, the window will sometimes start to lift...

Hi All, Last week I bought a 123 300d. Reasonable miles at 233k – you could say around twenty per day! The car drove fine the 220 miles home, (70/80), used no oil – a little noisy on start-up, valves to adjust and a purge due, etc. Oil pressure quickly up to max, only dropped to just below two...

I have a knocking the from the front left when going over bumps but it isnt consistent. One day it will be very obvious the next it wont be present at all. One time I thought the wheel was about to fall off, the noise was so awful but then got better. There doesnt seem to be any pattern with...

Hi All, As some of you may know I have been umming and arring about a R129 SL 500 for a while. In that time I see that their prices have risen (past 18months) great! One thing that has always held me back from purchasing is the look of the front end. There is just something that I don't...
