1996 C180 W202 Classic Estate.
Okay as my car doesn't want to play (see another thread all help gratefully accepted) I decided to have a look at and replace a few of the night time dash lights that have sadly past away.
On my dash to the left of the displays where the Engine temp and Fuel...
Tyre foam and a compressor in the boot of my C32 is a bit of a pain for just rolling the 5 miles down the road to a tyre fitter, so a space save would be good. Anybody got one? Surrey/Hants borders would be hand too!
Also still looking for a replacement bose sub speaker as well. I don't...
Can one get a space saver wheel for an 03 W211 E-Class? There's space for one in the boot, but the car never came with a spare, just the repair kit. With the kind of mileage I do, I don't want to be without a spare.
Any advice will be appreciated. Many thanks.
Hello Merc Men.
I've finally got around to joining up... I've had my first Mercedes since last Summer and have read a lot of interesting stuff from you lot that's helped me bring it back to something near it's best, so hopefully I can contribute something to the forum in return this year...
On the W204 sport should both the front head restraints adjust fully down so they are sitting on the seat back ? On mine the driver one will adjust fully down but the passenger one seems to hit a mechanical stop inside the seat just above the first latching position. Presumably they should...
Was looking at my space saver spare earlier & couldn't help thinking how it could work properly in the event of a flat as i have staggered amg's with 255's on the front/285's on the back,surely the much slimmer/smaller spcace saver spare would unbalance the car if it needs to be used & would the...
I have two hard disks in my PC. Both are 320 GB.
One of them has a C partition on which I install all my applications. This is formatted with NTFS to 25 GB. This partition is almost full and things are starting to complain.
The rest of that hard disk is formatted into four partitions...
I have a 2002 Mercedes E Class model W211. As you will probably know it doesn't come with a spare wheel nor an option from Merc. I have purchased a 16" genuine space saver/lightweight alloy from another model, possibly a C Class. Part number A2084010602. (7JX16H2ET37)
The bolts for this...
So I've owned my MB for all of 7 days now and yesterday i got a puncture! Now that's just bad luck and you've got to just swallow those ones.
When attempting to change over to the space saver though I ran in to problems.
Firstly I've got to say that when pumping up the space saver spare it is...
My R171 2006 SLK caught a puncture last night and when I went to get the spare I realised it was deflated and had a small compressor to pump it up.
I have since read that some spare tyre kits also come with some tyre sealant - but mine only had the pump.
The question is: Can I deflate it...
I was travelling along the M6 toll today closing up on the back end of a volvo saloon at 75mph - honest. As I got within 200 yards I noticed that the offside rear wheel was a space saver. I decided I would rather be in front than behind and overtook.
As far as I am aware a space saver is...
Late last night my mums C180 SC had a blow out which lead to a large split in the side wall of the tire(suspected faulty tyre). Luckily she was only traveling slowly and wasnt far from the house. Due to there being next to no light i decided to change the tire in the morning before taking it to...
Hi,
Has anyone been successful in tracking down a new space saver tyre for a ML (155/90 D18)??
Have drawn a blank from dealers, the internet and even Mercedes themselves.
I guess it's not at the top of a new SLS owners priority list, but the the boot space in the SLS Mercedes I tripped over this weekend was saddly lacking:(
It seemed to have been hijacked by diff coolers and pumps!
We were all in Dubai for the 24 hour race. Mercedes with three SLS racers and...
I am thinking of buying the above car, but how long I keep it for depends on how much space there is in the recess for the rear set of seats. The reason is I am very rarely ever likely to use them, and to justify keeping the car it would have to be run on LPG the spare wheel tanks that would be...
I couldn't work out how a tyre could 'fold' as it were to save space in the SL...Until I found these vids on Youtube-Never seen anything like it.
