Had an incident with Bambi who shredded by grill and managed to puncture my aircon condenser. Lots of aftermarket version available but how easy are they to swap? Happy to spend a day doing it but how tricky is it? Do I need any special tools? All help gratefully received. Thanks k

We're looking for a new family car, missed out on two that were advertised so I thought I'd try a different tack. Ideal spec. - Not black or light silver exterior - Must have light coloured interior - Has to have 7 seats - memory seats a big plus - we'd love HK audio, but not essential

Hello all I need to replace the passenger side rear seatbelt (not in boot) from my S211 E220. I have managed to release one side (front) of the c-pillar trim but cannot figure how to release the rear side. It butts right up to the glass. Any help gratefully received. Thanks k

I've driven the car for the first time in the dark. 2 things seemed odd: the interior lights don't go off completely but stay very dim. I assume this is adjustable? The headlight switch doesn't illuminate the settings around the dial, just the dial. Is this normal? Not sure the car is sitting...

As above, i would like to replace the big thick weather strip that sits around the osf drivers door as its perishing but i cant see how it attaches to the door itself? Any ideas?:dk:

Guys My battery is going to need replacing soon, its a little sluggish some mornings and when I checked it with a battery tester the other day it was showing its age. The question is do I need to get anything special? the current one fitted is a moura 019int (900CCA) and I'm guessing this...

Following on from my Mb project, i've just got my front bumper back from a good friend of mine in Basildon. He done a awesome job as always and by god the car looks good. The bumper was badly stone chiped and had a bad spray before i got it and it had been buggin me since i got the car lol

I've noticed tonight my normal headlights are shining barely 6 ft in front of my car. They light up nothing of the road in front. In fact the fog lights shine further? ?? No malfunction message. I'm guessing a level sensor has failed somewhere? ?? Thought that would bring up a message tho as...

Im freshning up the front of my s211, i bought a new nsf Headlamp. After i swapped the bulbs over i noticed that the nsf xenon bulb didnt look like it lights the whole of the Lense up like the osf does. But when you crouch down and look at it it seems to illuminate the lens out properly. So at...

Had this appear a couple of times after not using car for a few days. Car starts fine - main battery showing 12.4V. If I try to apply SBC it says "not available" as I expected. If I switch off and re-start after driving 5-6 miles the "1 malfunction" message clears. Just checked front aux battery...

A good friend of mine is seeking an E55 Kompressor estate. These are becoming few and far between in the secondhand market it seems, and the chances of getting a good'un even scarcer I suspect. If anyone is thinking of selling up, his budget is around £15k for the right car. Please get in...

I'm not having any joy sourcing one of these - everyone keeps trying to sell me a bonnet badge. My amg engine cover has a hole where the star badge should be and that won't do. I imagine Mercedes would sell me one but are there any alternative sources?

I've read the manual, pressed the appropriate buttons and confirmed COMAND says TA off yet still I get irrelevant traffic announcements. How do I switch it off once and for all. Please!

I really like the look of these wheels for my silver e55 They are listed as 27024502 10Jx19h2 E30 27021503 8.5Jx19H2 E35 Does anyone know if they will fit or if they need to be 8.5J and 9.5J? Thanks

I am having a lot of problems removing pad retaining pins from my front calipers had not originally ordered replacement pins so decided to order some before I finish the job I spent over half an hour and only managed to remove one by hitting with punch on end with large hammer but could not...

On another vehicle I have with air suspension I have to lock the suspension when the car is jacked up to prevent the suspension getting confused and trying to find the floor. Is this the same for the e class and if so how do I do it? Thanks

Just home from a hideous crawl out of London with newly acquired s211. Its a London car so first job is to get rid of the London look. So trim shop to tidy the interior recolour bolsters etc, body shop for the few door dings and full wheel refurb. Everything works except the drivers mirror...
