repaired

Hello I am trying to repair my '73 450SL but it is getting the better if me. If anyone has repaired the firewall rust, please let me know how you did it. I have repairable rust in the plenum chamber and I don't need the bulkhead kit. I do have rust in the 2 layers of metal in front of it...

Hi all First post as newbie, but thought I'd share. Recently purchased a C220 Sport with dark leather interior. Had a scuff about size of your thumb. After failing to locate a professional locally, ordered some leather repair off ebay. My expectations weren't high but the results were fab -...

As some may know, i recently purchased a clk320 cdi, got it very cheap but it had a few problems, the main one being the inlet shut off motor. i have removed the inlet flaps and the motor all together and the car is now back on the road. i have attached some images of the car as it stands...

Right - just recieved my fully refurbed cluster, it needed refurb as it was draining the battery and the rpms were flickering. Plugged it in - it flicks on and off, few lights missing ie no engine management light and MPH needle no longer works! and fuel reads always full. rpm works fine...

I looked at a 2004 M Class today that was in pretty good nick. However, the chrome/paint on two of the wheels is flaking off in patches. Can this be treated, and if so, by who, and how much? Cheers.

Hi, I just thought I'd share my experience of repairing my folding mirror. I clipped another mirror in a narrow street. Really not very hard but enough to break the motor/gearbox part, meaning the mirror just flapped about. The only other damage was a small crack in the indicator lens. I...

As title. Curious to know as I learned most places do the cold vulcanising method, which limits the options for repairing punctures away from the centre tread. But fitters send discarded tyres away to a place or two where hot vulcanising is used to fully repair and bake the tyre so that it's...

As the title really... Mine does not work. I read somewhere that the chances are that it's an easy-ish repair (simple resistor swap or something along those lines?). Has anyone done it? How do i take it out? Front or rear? All help and advice MOST appreciated. Thanks in advance :)

Our MB got lost over the weekend. After a trip to the garage for wheel bearings it never returned - at least in part as the wrong bearings were supplied initially. Chased it down today, to find that the mechanic had discovered yesterday that one of the injectors was blown with a fair amount...
