Hi Long term Mercedes owner but not very techncial so a lot of the posts on here are way over my head. Have visited here a few times over the years, mostly when I change cars, which is where I am right now. It is always an enjoyable experience but also quite fraught! Moving from two year old E...

Hi Well I've been away from the forums for a while (busy working) and I sold my C270 about a year ago, but int he meantime I did pick up a lovely SLK350 for my good lady and a Lexus GS450h for myself.. Right now I am in the process of purchasing an 03 SL500 as a weekend toy to replace my...

My SL500 is having a new custom exhaust fitted today and the battery has been disconnected due to welding required on the new exhaust to get the fit exactly right. Is there anything I need to do to reprogram windows, roof, etc upon reconnection of battery? Thanks Russ

Hi All, You may remember my Smart Brabus Roadster enthusiasm from such threads as this. Anyway, its now 2007 and time to start the process of buying a Brabus Roadster. I've got the financial elements of it covered, but was wondering if anyone has any pointers of common things to check for on...
