ride

Ladies and Gentlemen, as you can see Im brand new here but very much glad to be part of the community. A few months ago I purchased an old (1992) 300d and enjoy very much pootling around in her. I had noticed the ride height was a little low particularly when driving over sleeping policement...

Took advantage of the weather today and took a long b road detour to work and had a bit of a giggle. During the last mile or so I noticed a change in the handling and when I arrived at work I noticed this on the rear tyre. It looks like the tyre is delaminating. The split is on both sides of...

The front airmatic ride height sensors are very obvious on the 221 S class and can be seen attached to the top wishbone through the gap between the front wheel and the wing. I have taken a rear wheel off and cannot for the life of me see the rear sensors. They are not attached to any of the...

Just put a deposit on a '54 C220 CDI, the only downside...steels wheels! I'm looking for a set of nice alloys, any suggestions? Those wheels and trims just have to go.

The 124 I bought last week has two new (but cheap) front tyres, but I need to change the rears. I'm going to stick with the original 195/65/15 size , on the assumption that Mercedes knew what they were doing when they chose them!. Ive had a look on...

Hey Everyone, I'm looking to get a set of the following wheels for my W208 CLK320 Avantgarde: I currently have the standard 16's on but am not sure whether I should go for 17's or 18's when I change ! The 18's come in a staggered fitment but the 17's are all the same sizes. Will the...

As you can see, I love tweaking my cars. Given that I'll be taking my CLK to the Nurburgring several times this year (I usually go there 4-5 times annually), good brakes and slightly less body roll would be beneficial. So I dropped off my CLK350 with Maybank Motorsport last weekend with the...

Hi Guys, I went to my local Merc Dealer today to get a price on brake pads for the SL and a quote for fitting them. As its the first time I have needed to do this (15,000 miles) I would welcome your thoughts........................ A set of front and rear pads and sensors (?),cost £145 inc...

I have a C180 (54 plate) which has just had its 3rd birthday last month, having covered 30k miles along the way. From new, the car always drifted to the left and suffered from NSF outer tyre wear. Both are common problems for this model. However, recently the ride at the front was very...

Dear Friends, please could someone with an avantgarde W203 sedan (better if a C270 like mine) post here ride height value. Please to specify if the car is equipped with optional sport chassis (mine have the code 486 "sport chassis" :D that if I'm not wrong have lower spring and 225 tyres on...

I know I shouldnt have but 10 months into my "cheap" 12 month SL350 contract I got the urge to change again. It goes back tomorow (I have to pay 95% of the remaining 2 rentals :( ) . The beasty that caught my attention is a 15k miles 3 year old Aston Martin DB7 Vantage Auto . I never really...

Its one helluva machine. That big N/A V8 is pretty awesome :rock: Thanks to the owner - I've arranged to take it off his hands when he next upgrades in 7-8 years time :cool: Obviously this thread is useless without pics, so here's a couple and a short video clip for your viewing...
