Hello everybody, I would like to ask the owners of MB cars equipped with the piezoelectric injectors about the real fuel consumption in and out the city. I personally owe a CLS with the 3.5 V6 CGI engine ,that runs about 15-20 mpg urban and about 25 extra urban. It wouldn't surprising if...

Inspired by a thread on Pistonheads where the owner of a T124 reveals the true cost of running one, I thought i'd share some of my experience of living with a W220 and what it really costs. Buying First off, let it be known that i'm in the motor trade and generations before me have also...

Hi folks, Rite so just bought my first mercedes it's a w210 E320 cdi. I bought it with what I could only describe as a fan belt squeal but now the car idles bad every now an again. Fan belt squeal at idle but a slight rev an the noise disappears Drops rev at idle in gear or out of gear, if...

I'm considering coming back to an MB after a not too marvellous experience with a B Class back in 2010. That said, the new C Class has really caught my eye, in particualr the c250 in the Sport trim. I'm wondering what it's really like to live with, what MPG is reasonably expected on longer...

I have never been so indecisive over choosing a car before, I have promised myself a C63 for years but that was before the arrival of 3 young kids under 5, After a number of test drives and researching the sizes of estates saloons etc I have decided that the way to go is E63, I have been for a...

Hi guys, My Dad is looking to buy a new (pre-owned) saloon car and is considering: C63 AMG Saloon (2012+), 2015 BMW M3 Saloon and a 2013 Lexus IS-F. In our opinion, the C63 is amazing (he's driven one) and we love it but the only problems are Fuel Consumption + Reliability. If you own a...

Hi, Sorry I would guess this has been asked many times :doh: but a friend of mine is looking to purchase an A45 and would like to know what he is letting himself in for. He know's it has to be super unleaded. Thanks in advance

Thinking long and hard about Paul's quilfe LSD offer that's on ATM and want to know the real benefits of it talking real world here I'll never use it on a track but am doing a European rally in June with lots of mountain passes. Thank you in advance for any feedback

Hi all, Currently have an 11 plate C220 CDI saloon,but have decided that I now need an estate car. I am test driving the new C Class Estate tomorrow, so that may be an option. However I have always lusted over the CLS Shooting Brake! Do any of you have any comments, good or bad regarding the...

Has anyone got a way of uninstalling this please? The usual "uninstall" in control panel won't do it. Keep get an error message about uninstall shell has stopped working. Others, like CC cleaner also generate the same error Any ideas please? Thanks

Do you feel the engine is adequate? Do you regret not getting E250? Keen for some opinions from genuine users. Ta in advance

I'm looking to change my other car. I've been looking at E46 M3 and the equivalent Alpina B3S. I've also been considering the CLK55 for some V8 goodness. I'm targetting W209, 2004- cars. What have been your experiences ? Are there any weak points on these cars ? Any that I should avoid ...

Hi, as poster previously I am seriously considering trading my BMW 320d (2012 F30) for a 63 plate C220 AMG Sport. I am currently getting 45.5mpg in the BMW that is averaged over the last 5k miles and is mainly short runs and chasing about. On a long run I can get 60mpg easy, my question is what...

Hi, so do you know if the door side armrest is real leather or not on the r230? thanks

I am thinking of buying the S/C pulley from CKS. However, i have read (well respected members and even a sponsor) saying that there have been a few problems with these (belts coming off etc) and causing damage. Obviously that's the last thing i want, this was back in 2011 that i read these...
