The spare tire in my 91 500SL is 23 years old and has never been mounted.
It still looks brand new. I know the shelf life for selling new tires is 6 years.
Should I worry about delaminating or is it still ok to use if necessary? It's a Pirelli P6 if that matters. (I know new Pirelli's in...
Hi all,
Family member is looking at recent but previous stylie A-Class as a runabout, thinking along the lines of around 2009-2010 onwards.
I recall on the original A-class, any auto transmission woes were a major headache and in most cases rendered the car beyond economic repair as you...
Does anyone happen to know what is the safe limit for torque for the autobox in a C207 (E350CDI)?
I am considering a remap and I am told 750Nm is possible, which I do not doubt, but I want to satisfy myself it is well within the transmission's capability. The standard output is 620Nm...

I also note that they have a rubber strap wrench, this looks a bit kinder to the plastic filter canister than a chain wrench, has anyone used one of these?
any thoughts?
Hi I am new to this, and new to Mercedes, I am thinking of buying a E320 CDI 2003 model. I keep reading about a lot of problems with these cars, and am therefore trying to get some straight answers here. So is it safe to buy one of these, the one I am looking at has got 94K miles, full MB...
Hi can anyone kindly suggest safe/secure parking near to the Etihad Stadium for Man Citys game against Chelsea on sunday. Looking forward to the 300 mile journey up and the 300 mile journey back and knowing the car will be there when we return will be a bonus

Hi
Just collected 4 original MB W211 alloys taken off 2005 Elegance 320CDI.
The alloys generally in good condition but on arrival home I noted that two of them have quite a lot (probably up to 1mm) corrosion on the hub facing. The guy is also selling the car from which they came and he said it...
I am concerned that it will drive traffic away from the safer Motorways to the less-safe A and B roads.
I have seen this happen in France and Italy where in some areas the toll roads are virtually empty and the local roads are packed with traffic (and accidents).
What do you think?
Evening chaps-a few of us are about to book a trip to Tunisia for about four nights in mid Feb. Does anyone know what the CURRENT situation is there and will be relatively safe? We will probably be staying in Hammamet, all inclusive. I know things were bad this time last year. Has anyone been...
