I got a bit carried away the other day and I've removed most of my interior while trying to find the cause of the clicking on start up. I've removed the top of the dash and I can see the motor that is causing the clicking but I can't seem to access it. It's the charcoal flap motor. I was...

as per title, any tips? i know it plugs inside the headlight, and twists off, but how much of a mission is it to get a replacement clipped back in?

After replacing my '02 A160's (auto) starter, all the instrument cluster warning lights are on and there is no signal to starter to start. My starter has been intermittently failing to start over the last year or so until it became unreliable. The last time it failed to start, I was able to...

the chrome coloured trim at the bottom of the windows, i'm guessing it's plastic & not actually metal? it's got sort of watermark stains on it, slightly cloudy looking. not too bad, but i notice it! i've googled it & it seems to be a common problem across various makes with 'car wash detergent'...

Hi guys, I had my lower control arms and a couple of bushes changed last weekend. The car is now pulling to the left quite considerably (as in, if I let go of the steering wheel, I would be up on the kerb within 10 seconds) When the guys fitted the control arms and bushes they told me the...

Just had the front pads replaced on my 57 W211 and all works and stops fine. Thing is when I press the peddle and stop the car if I keep my foot on the brake I can push it all the way to the floor. I can't remember if it done it before replacement. Instinct says it shouldn't do it. Thanks

Everything that I have read says that the alternator comes out from underneath the car but there was no way that on my...

Over the last couple months, I've put in new shocks, new lower ball joints, steering shock, new LCA bushings as part of a suspension overhaul and it has been good so far. The car has been much more stable on smooth roads, but there was still some very prominent shaking in the steering wheel...
