Spent a bit of time under my w221 S320 for the first time yesterday with the under-trays removed. Was replacing a split intercooler hose and I am very unimpressed but the layout of the various rubber hoses and pipes. There are a few air-con hoses with rubber 'spacer sleeves' deliberately fitted...

As referred in this fascinating thread: http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/engine/137448-7g-tronic-tiptronic-user-notes.html as well as the User Guide, the expected behaviour of the gearbox in Comfort mode is that it'll pull away in second gear rather than first. This doesn't happen on my car and...

We are now on to our third brake vacuum pump on a car with this engine and they are failing quickly, which may suggest that the oil is not feeding to the vacuum pump. I understand, however, that it is impossible go investigate this properly without removing the left cylinder head to check the...

I have tried to Google the part number for the 'Y' pipe (air inlet) that is fitted to the OM 642 V6 diesel engine in my car. (and turned-up a blank) It has been over-tightened by someone in the past,and the plastic has cracked, and therefore oil can leak from it directly onto the inlet port...
