Hi folks, I hope someone can help. 1998 W202 C200 Saloon Petrol 81,000 miles. Engine runs beautifully apart from a very annoying Flat Spot at the bottom of the rev range, i.e. when you put the car into D and press the accelerator, nothing happens for a second, resulting in a slightly lumpy...

I have a 1972 Mercedes sl350 r107 which runs well and ticks over nicely but has a strong petrol smell, particularly when first running. Just wondered if you guys could point me in the right direction. A couple of guys said could be injectors need replacing but runs really well so a bit stumped...

I'm due to take delivery of mine next month. Still not had a chance to test drive one and other than the old What Car review there doesn't seem to be many reviews. However, speaking to a few dealers back in May/June it appears at one point this engine was getting ordered more than the...

I purchased a 2002 CLK320 Petrol (71K miles) (VIN=WDB2093652F034126) in May this year and have noticed an increasingly annoying loud buzzing/hum coming from the petrol tank that can only be stopped by turning the engine off. Whilst on holiday last week, I stopped at the Harrogate MB dealer and...

Hi, Ordered one of these last week. Initially ordered the diesel E350 based on the performance stats. However, as I do under 5,000 miles per year and can do stop-start journeys for a few weeks at a time before a longer run I decided petrol would be a wiser options than the more powerful...

I'm thinking about replacing the trusty S210 and fancy a rare petrol V6, either in late facelift S211 or early very rare S212 E350 guise. Is there anything to be concerned about with the engines in these models? Would a very late S211 be a better bet than an early S212? Would be glad to hear...

Hi. I'm new to the club and this is my first post. I'm after some information/advice on my supercharger. I don't think it is not doing its job, but it is awfully noisy with a sort of whining/whistling sound. I know it's the supercharger because I had my local garage disconnect the drive...

Hoping to solicit the advice of anyone of the great folks on here to an unpleasant collision on a station forecourt earlier today near Oxford. It was in my 05 C270. Short story is that I was driving through the forecourt (well, along the outside edge) when a chap in a Nissan Navara flung his...
