slow

Takes about 15 minutes to get lukewarm and about 30 mins to get hot? So not much use! Any ideas on what is wrong? Thanks in advance.

Just picked up my new C270 CDI on sat and everything is fine with it apart from it feels a bit flat and lifeless.......This could be because i have been driving around a W204 C320 CDI for 3 weeks :rolleyes: however i am pretty sure it is down on power compared to my last C270, it doesnt pull...

I have an 03 model C270CDi Estate Avantgarde with 120K miles on the clock, FSH etc etc I noticed today on pulling out that the Turbo seems to have stopped working. Car drives just fine but if I floor the pedal nothing happens, no kick down, nothing, car just continues to accelerate as if I...

Not sure where to post this as I don't know if it is mechanical or electrical. The wiper action on my 320e (W124) seems very slow on setting 1. If you put it on setting 2 i.e. fast then it seems to operate at the speed you would normally expect on setting 1. I have heard lots of things...

Hi PC Guru's. I've been given the task of speeding up my uncle's 6 year old Sony Vaio running XP Home 2002 servvice pack 3. Pentium 4 2.88Hz. 256mb Ram. It is unbelievably slow. If you click on ANYTHING online or not it can take upwards of 30 seconds to accomplish the task. He can't...

I've recently changed cars from a W211 E240 to a R230 SL500. I've noticed drivers now tailgate me much more often and much closer when I'm in the overtaking lane of a dual carrigeway or motorway. I am not guilty of sitting there when there's room to pull back in safely. I will not be pushed into...

I'm not sure if there is anything wrong here - but I have noticed it recently and it's bugging me. If I accelerate steadily, so the box changes gears between 2000 and 2500rpm, the change from 3rd -> 4th is very slow and seems odd. Initially the revs increase by 200-300rpm then after about 1...

W124 1993 M111 E220 Estate. Grrrrrrrr, lost power to drivers window so pulled up centre console panel to check the switch first, pulled it apart, it looked good all other switches/windows good. Cleaned crud and reclaimed coins ( made 56p:)) from recesses. Dr'window still no go. Next day non...

since i bought my j reg sl300 i have had the sam problem; it won't change up for half a mile. if i floor it there is a 6 second delay before it changes down. i feel like i have half a car and it gets quite exciting when pulling into other traffic! is it the gear box filter that needs changing?

Hi Guys, Have owned my W202 1997 pre facelift C180 since it was a year old and love it - only recently discovered this forum and have found it to be a great source of info! Just recently, immediately after start up, the red light in the base of the rear view mirror has started to slowly...

Very slow sometimes on my home computer, thought it was just my machine but the one at work is the same. Loads the screen fast enough but wont let you scroll up or down for a few seconds, then in fits and starts. Any ideas how to speed it up? Lynall

One of my mirrors takes a lot longer to fold in & out compared to the other side. Not a major problem I know, I just wondered if anyone else has had the same problem and if it was a motor fault or something restricting it.

hi Wheat can be the cause of rattling noise on pressing and realsing accelarator. this rattling is audible on both D (fwd) and R (reverse) only on slow speeds. Location of noise is from underneath the accelarator. Plz help Regards

Still having the problem of my digital clock working slowly? Over 1 week it loses about 10 minutes or so As its digital i wouldnt have thought this possible anybody any ideas as to why this might happen

I seen to have developed a noise at car park speeds, most noticeable at full lock at the bottom of ramps - sounds like outside front tyre is scrubbing - perhaps that all it is, as the car is doing it's best to go straight on even though speed is slow. The sound does give the impression of tread...

Hi Guys, I am concerned about the second hand car I have purchased. Basically, at slow speeds, when I press the break pedal, I feel a tick vibration every 2 seconds. I have driven other cars with ABS and there is no such ticking. It has just been serviced by Mercedes and they said all is fine...
