Hi Guys, I have a 2005/55 CLK 270CDi (W209) and the wheels are in need of some desperate attention. I bought the car just over a year ago with the "Sport" 5 soft spoke staggered 17in wheels (see pic below). When I bought the car they were completely curbed, one is also buckled according to...

There are often no manufacturer-issued CO2 figures for pre-2001 cars so finding a figure is problematic. Fortunately the Irish Government, ever-efficient in raising import tax revenue, has a CO2 database with figures for older cars https://www.ros.ie/VRTEnquiryServlet/showVRT You'll have to...

Is there a convenient place in the boot that i can use as a power source for a dvd player, preferably that would switch off when the ignition is not in use?

For the second time we have a group of people suggesting the use of Open Souce Software. My initial reaction is sceptical. This would be for an extremely large development. My own view is based on my experience two years ago when I found; 1. The tools seemed crude and from a previous...

After picking my car up from Ian's garage (124works in Kirkham) I was chatting to him about further mods and we discussed engine transplants. Where is the easiest place to pick up a 230 Kompressor engine?

If anyone is interested I just bought a new maf sensor and housing (0280217515) from SC motor factors for £140 including VAT. It is exactly the same as the original only it doesn't have the mercedes part number stamped on it. Cheers Adam

Hi, My slowly-deteriorating 1990 500SE (W126) really needs a new exhaust. In fact it definitely needs one, as it won't pass the MoT with the collection of old rusty bits it has at present - it's the ORIGINAL system on there which is pretty good after 16 years! I'm sure a genuine Mercedes...

Recently broken the shackles of working for a large organisation, and working for something much smaller now - me!! Decided it would be a good time to look at the viability of using Open Source software, to help ease the expense of setting up. I'm absolutely stunned with OpenOffice 2. Only...

Any ideas where I can get one of these tools to remove the oil filter on my C220 D , I believe its a 36mm Oil Filter socket tool I tried without it but the cap is a pig to get off so I stopped before damaging it. :mad:

I want to buy a AMG body kit for a 1993 SL R129 Shape. Does anyone know where to source one from? I don't fancy one directly from merc as its £2000+ for the parts! Any help will be appreciated.
