It's washed the car at home where we have pretty hard water with lots of deposits and now what should be a lovely clean car is covered in water spots all over, thousands of them. Is white vinegar still the cheapest and easiest way to remove these as they seem pretty stubborn to move.? Will...

Apparently my S204 (white) had StarGard applied at the time of 2nd sale (approx. 1year ago) - I can't say I notice a positive difference in terms of lustre etc and in some light, when wet, the surface doesn't appear uniform (which I can only imagine is the StarGard?).
With the better weather...
I am having trouble with the folding mirrors and suspect the switch pack is faulty. I have one arriving tomorrow but I am struggling to remove the faulty one. Can't see any screw under the park brake release,just the two spring clips on the back of the switch. Has anyone actually had one out and...
As I'm still looking for car I come across S212. It's all ok but it is 7 seater. How difficult is to remove the folding seat and convert it so it looks like in 5 seat version? Price roughly how much could this cost me?

Hi,
I took my W220 to my specialist of choice as the driver's seat had stopped moving forward & back.

Hi,
The car is a 2002 C220 CDi Sports Coupe which has been well used and given me good service over the years and now the Panoramic Sunroof is stuck in tilt mode. I believe that there's something jammed in the mechanism of the left motor and I need to access it.
Can anyone tell me if I need...

Has anyone had any experience with mapping out cold starts? I've read up a small amount and it seems like the main reason it's there is for emissions - warming up cats etc. which mine doesn't have!
