    How can I see a speed limit from GPS maps on S-Class

    I've recently bought a 2007 S Class (W221 I think). I was disappointed to find that I do not seem to be able to display the speed limit for where I am on the Navigation system. Does anyone know if that is possible? If not, I have a Mio M616LM Sat Nav that I used to use on my previous...

    Dilemma! Still pondering a purchase of an Cdi220 S204 sport, just how much better or not is the 7G box compared to the older 5speed auto. :confused: Which should I choose?

    Wanted: Mint condition 5 speed gearknob for a W245 B Class (or one off a W169)

    As titled, looking for a mint condition gearknob for my wife's W245 B150 (5 speed manual). Her's has become chipped. If it comes with a gaiter, all the better for fitting easily. I believe a W169 A Class gearknob will be exactly the same. Thanks!

    Variable Speed Gantry Cameras - some info

    I was at Autosport International last weekend, chatting to a couple of West Midlands police officers on their stand. I asked about the functionality of said cameras when the gantry speed limit signs appeared to be switched off, i.e, without a nominated maximum speed showing. They...

    Speed limiter

    I'm not after going faster than the 155mph my car is supposed to be limited to, more trying to understand a possible fault. How does the speed limiter work on a C43 AMG, what tells the ECU to stop whatever would make the car exceed 155mph? Giving it some beans the other day, in the safest of...

    E350. Blue efficiency engine idle speed

    When I move off from standing start the engine hesitates a little before accelerating? My engine idle speed is a 500rpm. I am wondering if it is to low and that is why the engine sounds like it is going to stall when I press the pedal

    Is there a speed dial option in w204 command?

    Morning all, I've just had my dr520 delivered yesterday, and one thing I've found really useful on bmw's is the buttons which you can assign to speed dial contacts from your phone with one touch. Is there a similar system in COMMAND? I've had a read of the manual but it's not exactly clear to...

    6 speed box in a W202 /W208?

    Guys, any info on fitting a 6 speed box from a W203/W210 into a W202/W208? Wondering what's involved. I'm imaging the props are different lengths, possibly the linkage is different too. No idea about clutch actuation ie, pedal, master & slave cylinders etc. Any advice, comments greatly received.

    Why does this black series hit a speed wall (not the limiter)?

    Hi, Just saw this YT video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l900pOvnCuo The car accelerates strongly up to 307km/h (190mph) then stops. It's not ran out of revs, and looking at how it climbs in speed, it's not ran out of power either. Why does it stop accelerating so abruptly at...

    Engine Idle Speed.

    What is the 'official' idle speed for E350 CDI W212 please, and what if anything would cause it to drop? My motor seems suddenly to be a bit jerky in slow traffic, the braking effect of taking my foot off the accelerator being quite harsh. The rpm on idle is a cat's hair above 1000 rpm, but...
