rain

Hi all, Does anyone know how to get the rain sensor to work? I have read the manual and the wipers just keep going across the screen every 10 seconds. I did notice a small bubble or area where it looks like the rain sensor is not in contact with the screen. If so, what is the solution a new...

Apart from rain causing rust, the car has had an on-going issue, that when it rains it starts to splutter and has a couple of times stalled/cut out whilst driving. This got better when I cleaned the fuel pump relay connectors last year, is now starting to get worse and only in the wet/rain...

There are loads of previous threads on this but I cannot find the specific answer I want. :dk: Can a rain sensor be fitted to a facelift R171 (surprised it's not standard! :( ) ? If so, then what is it going to cost, approximately, to have it supplied and fitted by an Indie?

Hi all When I bought my 320CDI I knew I had to have some rust and paint work done, not much but some. The worst was an area the size of a fist just above the windscreen in the middle. I got a new windscreen seal for the top and one of my friends got me a good deal for having the work done at...

Hi everyone, My windscreen has developed a crack which is getting larger by the day, I will need to get it replaced asap so I might aswell get the replacement with the OEM Rain sensor hole cut out. Please could someone with this factory fitted PM me as I will require the VIN number when...

God I'm glad to be back at work :)

I take nearly everyone uses Rain X, it's great stuff. I first saw it in action on my Uncles Cessna pilot trainer when I was 16 in Miami. Been using it for the last 22 years and I'm surprised hardly anyone I speak to has heard of it.

Chaps i've need the inside black cover to protect the wiring from rain missing on my w210 folding drivers mirror. Hoping someone has one i can buy off then or a broken mirror they may have? Many thanks Cabw :D

I'm finding rain water on the forward engine underbody tray, after rain. But not on every occasion. That it rains. Do any of the drain tubes, discharge onto the tray. If not. Where is this water comeing from. This water sits across, the full width of the tray. The car is a w211 E320 (03)

Can someone please explain why my partners c270 seems to be missing and losing power when it rains. Its only when it rains, the engine stutters and the car slows down. This problem has only been happening since we had a new inlet manifold put on earlier in the year. Also sometimes when it's...

Hi, i just bought a 2006 c180 k classic Se from the MB dealer. I was told that it had rain sensing wipers. But it does not seem to. any ideas on weather this was a standard option ? Also any clues on how to check ? i have the wiper setting on intermittance and no change in the wiping speed in...

I've just had the windscreen replaced on my 2001 CLK 430 convertible, and the fitter managed to break the connector in half on the cable. I've got the replacement connector, and just want to check the wiring for the connector, i.e. which colour wire connects to what crimp socket?

Waxed last night using Q Polish No8 again. Pleased with the ongoing results.

Hi, had my windscreen replaced by autoglass, on position 1 the wipers are in continuous mode. Wipes screen even when dry, ag say they have replaced many mercs without issues. Their technician is coming out to check tomorrow, advised them it may need coding/calibrating to the new screen as per...

Looks like a bad design area to me. The boot gulleys are covered with a plastic cover which is getting filled with crud, any idea on how to clean these out, dont fancy blasting with pressure washer

Possible question for Alfie or Richard this one. whilst i was looking around for a C350 Coupe, i was wanting one with a panoramic roof... and seem to remember something about an option to close the roof automatically if it started raining. Now as it turns out, i got one without the...
