The Bonnet release pull handle had broken on my 300CE.
I bought a new one on EBay - £4.75 - made by Febi in Germany - looked good.
(when I told them about the problem, they gave me an immediate refund)
I replaced the part and the first time that I "pulled it" it snapped
The metal catch on the...
Hi there
I want to repaint my wing mirrors on my w210 e320 cdi 2001 and wondered if the wing mirrors come off easy or is it better to paint em with them left on .Got a few battle scars to get rid of. Do the plastic covers just pull off or do you have to remove the whole mirror assembly ?
Hello again...
Apologies for posting yet another question about changing the coolant on my S320, but I am slightly confused after talking to local independent MB garage. I rang them to talk about servicing etc, but also asked from some advice on how to go about draining, flushing and refilling...

I haven't seen any here in the states yet. Also, do any of the W140's come with a left front power seat WITHOUT memory? I have S280 imported from Germany like that (except of course it's left had drive) and W140's were never sold here without memory and I need a replacement seat switch.
My Bonnet pull-cable has snapped on my 99 e-300 td,so I have nothing to pull to open my Bonnet.I got the passenger side to pop just before the cable broke Any ideas on how I would release the other catch or get access to it?
Thanks - Almidillo
Hi guys, just bought a 98 c250 td. Being silly I got it without ever driving one of these before so I took the guys word for it that the way it drives is how its meant to be. Pulling away with my foot planted to the floor it takes off very slowly and then only from about 3k rpm it starts to...

Hi guys, I am new to this, from South Africa.
I have a 1998 C250TD automatic, about 260000km on the clock. Since I have had it, there seems to be a lag when you try to accellerate, a bit of a hesitation before suddenly roaring into life with all the power in the world, then a lag when it...
Ok where do I start this time, as some of you will know I dropped another engine in the car a couple of months ago. The car was running well, just didn't change gear properly but this was just the cable I hope.
Ok so now all of a sudden the car started running rough and it has just got worse...
Morning chaps,
This is my first proper post here so please excuse any etiquette mishaps!
I’ve got a 2001 CLK 230Kompressor Avantgarde with 17” AMG wheels (225/45 17s on the front and 245/40 17s on the back – both sets will need replacing in about 6000 miles) and there are two niggling...
My MB was bought as a used car. After a few days of ownership, I became aware the steering pulling over to the left (very slightly). I brought this to the attention of the salesman and inquired if the car had been involved in an accident. The reply was 'no'.
He added that all the W203's pulled...
Am I expecting too much from a diesel? When I pull away from a standing start, it seems to take ages to get going. Once it's moving it's great and doesn't stop accelerating, but pulling away from traffic lights can be embarrasing especially if I'm next to a Reliant Robin. It's been in for a...
