On a motorway run the other day I noticed the fuel gauge was low down in the R territory (reserve), so I took it nice and easy whilst looking out for a petrol station. Amazingly, I noticed the car stated it was getting 51.2 mpg at a speed of about 55mph, which I thought was pretty good!
After...
Dear members,
I am Tomba and new here. I need someone opinion about a car that is in our workshop which we can not solve the problem from.
I is a S class from 2006/04 with 260.000km/163.000 miles.
Histroy:

I have a 2002 s320cdi, which I've owned for 11 years from new - lovely car. Today it let me down for the very first time - the temperature gauge went up near the red, and the heater blew cold air. I drove home very slowly. The fan belt is not broken, and the water header tank appears to be full...
On long motorway drives I usually use cruise control, and I've been wondering what the magic speed is that gives the highest MPG.
I'm especially interested in replies from people with the W220 model of this car, which uses the straight six engine, iirc.
Try not to bring special premium-priced...
Hi, I'm new here and was wondering if anyone could help me with selecting new tyres for my S320CDI ? (2005 W220)
The size is 245/45/R18.
My main criteria are for low noise tyres.
If possible they should also have a good rating for wet grip (A or B EU rating), and be good on fuel efficiency...
I know this has been covered many times but I need help!
I have a warning message come up on the dash that says"airmatic visit workshop". A friend on mine plugged his computer into the car and it tells him that the o/s suspension valve is out of range. What does this mean?
The airmatic works...
Hello everyone.I have a 51 plate s320cdi and the throttle response is ridiculously slow.If i pull off and dump the throttle there is a 2-3 second pause then the car takes off leaving a large cloud of black smoke in its trail.There are no engine management lights,no limp mode or gearbox...
Apart from E320CDI Estate for my parents that I am actively looking for now I will need to start looking for a newer car for myself to replace by E300TD 1998.
I noticed that there is not much difference between E320CDI Saloon vs S320CDI wen they are about 8-12 years of age and low mileage...
Wow,
Manage to do 54mpg, never done before by me ;)
Steady 70mph with cruise control, didn't go below 52mpg
Well impressed, sorry for quality of the pic
W220 S320 cdi 2001(51)
My battery seems to drain every 2-3 days, I recently had issues with a faulty passenger door control module causing the electrics not to function on the passenger door which I was advised may be the cause of the problem, but I have fitted a new module and although it...

Good morning everyone,
Can I start with mentioning I am not a mechanic, I'm just really interested in cars but I do know my limitations. I have looked several times but can't find a specific link here to the rear discs which is where I'm stuck but I have other questions to.
I don't do a...
I have a 52 reg S320CDI with Comand. Today the radio made a loud crackling noise for a few seconds and then all the speakers stopped working completely. The radio still appears to tune in to stations. The navigation also works, but with no sound. The CD function says that no CD changer is...

Hi MBClub Members

Current Mileage – 33,00 Miles 52,800 Kilometres
I have been asking/requesting MBUK for written info & confirmation for several weeks but nothing has materialised.
I ordered a factory built S320 CDI-W221 in July 2007 with...
Looking at an S320cdi, what would you advise, my budget is up to £4k. Looking around on the web this enables me a newer 04 plate with 200k miles on or and older W/51 plate with 100k on the clock. I think the 04 plate is the slight facelift as it as the clear head lights and command system...
