speed

Hi guys I have a 12 plate coupe with 30k miles. Above 80mph (obv on a private road) the steering starts to feel quite light like almost like the front end is lifting up and there seems to be quite a bit of play in the steering. Is this normal? Feels a bit unnerving tbh. Thanks

hi i have a mercedes c180k coupe 1.8 petrol manual 2004 the idle speed stays at 1200rpm for long periods of time on idle and the gradually creeps back to normal. i innitially tried unplugging the air mass sensor and this cured the problem but did bring the eml light on, i replaced the airmass...

Would love a large engined model but will consider anything as a stopgap as I have just sold my 4 Speed. Must be in excellent condition.

We drove back from the South of Germany yesterday ... today the temperature has hit 40C, and they have a blanket 80 kph (50 mph) speed restriction in force due to the effect on the road surfaces. A narrow escape!

My car has a vibration through the steering wheel which is only present at around 90-100mph. I've had the wheels balanced but this hasn't helped. C63 coupe. 19" wheels. Any ideas?

I'm hallucinating, surely? :crazy: Source BT Lifestyle. The margin for error for speeding is being tightened up by some police forces so the historical 10%-plus-2mph no longer applies. Is this fair and can it really be enforced? Most drivers stick within the speed limit, while a small...

Has anyone compared the SLK250d/9 speed gearbox to the 250CDi/7 speed. Is the 250d as noisy as the 250CDi? I have a 250CDi/7 speed which I find very noisy and am thinking of changing soon.

I remember when buying my SL a few years ago the dealership advised me to drive at less than 60 km/h for the first 1000 kilometres (this was outside UK) to allow the car to "break in". Can someone advise if a similar advisory still exists or is the car open to floor at motorway speeds...

Hi, mum and dad are looking at a different car and I wondered how reliabled the 2012 and on B class 7 speed DCT gearbox is?. I cant find many reviews and the only one I did find was quite negative about it. There current car has the VW DSG box in it. Any advice will be greatly...

I have recently purchased a 2005 C200 CDI Estate, with 69000 miles on the clock,plus 2 previous owners. It has been kept very well generally. It is a automatic and drives very well after having bmw 300D estate for 15 years from new. The problem is a noise ,which almost sounds like a speedometer...

I was out and about on the M25 last night. There were umpteen roadworks and speed restrictions. I was coming into a section that had the inside lane closed and the speed limit had been 60, 50 & finally 40. I'm sitting at about 45 when I see a whole lot of traffic coming up behind me at...

hi i have a 2005 vito 111cdi its limited to 80 how would this be done also she seems to be fast one minute then sluggish the next often eml light comes on resets when key off on please can some one help me

Anyone had a thump/noise from centre console area on speed bumps? It's not a heavy knock, but noticeable non the less. It's under the car and not interior based. :doh:

Anyone had the above replaced on their 7G box? How much was it?

Hi All, I have a C270 CDI est with 90k. The idle speed tends to hang around at 600rpm is this right?[ATTACH]51125 What should it be? thanks.

I've done loads of top speed events on various bike over the years, the highest speed achieved being 238mph at Woodbridge, but I've never done one in a car. So my question is, what will a standard E63 5.5 TT Estate do without its limiter? What will it achieve with a little exhaust mod...

Maybe a silly question but the C63 is 25mm lower than a standard C class. Obviously take speed bumps slowly but is there going to be a chance of scrapping the car on any speed bumps? I believe UK law says they cannot be any higher than 100mm but councils have been caught out for going higher on...

Hi all, I am experiencing a clicking/clunky sort if sound when turning at low speeds, parking or making u turns. It's not loud, but it's there! Car is 220 cdi w204 Any ideas before i get it booked in.
