My car is giving a harsh and firm ride. Took it to Waynes Gates and he can't find any problems but did advise on changing all four tyres and they're finished. Tyres are on order so will have to wait a few days and see if that resolves the problem.
One thing I have noticed, when I park the car...
Morning All,
I have a 2006 S320 CDI W221 and, from time to time, when at low revs and pulling away, the car will hesitate 3 times before it finally takes off. Its really hard to explain and only happens every few days or so and appears to be worse when in Comfort.
Imagine you put your...
Hi all and thanks in advance for any help given.
Yesterday on the last mile of my journey my 04 320 CDI decided t not want to accelerate thought it may have been due to lots of rain and the fact I had it in sports mode and was using the manual shift around the back lanes.
This morning I...
Evening All,
I have been having a creaking noise from the front of my S Class for a while now and eventually got round to looking at it tonight. It appears it is the lower ball joint which is the culprit (have saw this is a common problem).
I cant seem to find a DIY for it - does anyone...

Hi All,
Just a quick question - I have an Ipod connection in the glovebox of the S320 (nothing else) for the old style connector not the lightling port.
I am looking to get an ipod touch 5th gen (lightening port) to work with this. I just want to make sure if I purchased an adapter...

Hi Guys,
I purchased the following exhaust tips to fit onto my S320 - I have a genuine S63 rear diffusers which will fit right onto my exisiting rear AMG bumper so that is all fine.
I went to a local well known custom exhaust fitter today for them to have a look and quote the work and was...

I order a rear shock (passenger side) but the shock that needs to be replaced is drivers side rear, i bought off a scrap yard and I was told that the rear shocks on the s-class are interchangable.

Hi Guys,
I need to top up power steering fluid and brake fluid. Any recommendations. I went on to EUROCARPARTS but there is such a variety I don't want to use the wrong one or even a poor quality one.
Thanks
Hi Guys,
Just curious to know what PSI people are running on their 20" alloys. I have them as part of the AMG pack on a S320 W221. I believe the rears are 275 35 19 and the fronts are 245 30 19 (unsure of the front)
Anyway The guys on the other side of the water have suggested a lot on their...
Hi,
If anyone is interested in buying my 2001Y S320 CDI (W220) as either a project or for parts, please DM me. The car runs sweet as a nut and all electric/electronic bits (including COMAND) work perfectly. Bodywork makes getting this past its next MOT marginal value for me but maybe not...

Hi All,
My S320 being new to me and having had a limp mode due to a faulty DPF sensor I want to start becoming preventative on issues.
There is a lot of talk about the orange seal for the turbo. I had a look at mine and it looks like I have a few drops of oil below it.
It seems a simple...
