stay

My CLK cab headlamps will not turn off whatever I do. The rotary switch works for front and rear fog lights and the parking light function works at it should. Even with the switch in the off position, dipped headlamps shine brightly, even in full sunshine. Any ideas, guys, please?

does anyone out there know why the bonnet of my w124 1995 e220 will not stay up I have checked for springs shocks etc but do not seem to be able to locate any Thank for any help

Might be a silly question, I have a R172 SLK - should the rear windows be up when the roof is down?

Doesn't matter what I do they stay on. Dash switch no effect in any position (used to turn them on/off) I've taken the 4 lights out - 2x rear pillar - 2x c pillar. Perhaps the door or tailgate don't believe they are closed? Fuse C seems to be providing the interior light power quite happily...

Hi folks, I have a need for some advice relating to a question of keeping hold of my car I have a 95 R129 SL 320. Right up front lets get a feel for the car. 81k genuine miles, Full history MB up to 75k in Azurite Blue with Mushroom. I've done 271 miles in the last 3 years, it's flown...

Hi newbie here and new to Merc as it goes. Car is CLK W209 with the command thingymabob but the radio wont come on without the ignition being on. Is this correct or do I have a fault. Surely I must be able to sit in the car and listen to the radio without having everything on. I know in Audi's...

Hi, I have a 2008 - W204 C Class 220cdi. The air conditioning has been working fine for the last couple of years. It was recently recharged about 2 months ago. Now when you press the AirCon button it flashes a couple of times and turns off. Can anyone advise how I can reset the AC or why...

removed instrument cluster to try fix problem where it works sometimes and not others. I put it back in and problem still persists. More urgently after putting it back in some warning lights are staying on and not going out after ignition e.g brake pad wear, ABS, coolant and oil warning...

After replacing my '02 A160's (auto) starter, all the instrument cluster warning lights are on and there is no signal to starter to start. My starter has been intermittently failing to start over the last year or so until it became unreliable. The last time it failed to start, I was able to...

Prior to have some work done on my wife's year- old A180, this feature worked. I mean the external lights staying on for a short while after the car is locked - a feature my wife likes. The garage had the car in to service it and had the battery disconnected for some time so it took a while to...

Wife was driving home from work and I got a phone call to say the car (2001 S203 220CDI) was going crazy giving out fault codes and flashing lights like they were going out of fashion. After having a look around on here I worked out that the bulkhead drains were blocked (we had biblical rain the...

All, A bit of background first to my saga with this body shop. I called Andy the proprietor at Andy's Auto Barn just before Christmas regarding the painting of my body kit on my 190E. The body kit would include the front and rear bumpers including inserts, side sill panels and all the sacco...

Next Wednesday I have a client who is going for a meeting at the Millennium Madejski hotel in Reading. I am taking them down at 17-00 and staying overnight until Thursday where I will pick them up at 19-45 and return them back to Burnley. What I would like to know is where can I stay where the...

My ABS and brake warning lighs are constantly on, and also the parking brake light does not illuminate when the parking brake is applied. Reading through the various threads where similar issues have been discussed the problem could be either the parking brake switch, brake pedal switch, OVP...

This spoiler was already fitted to the car when I bought it and I had every intention of removing it, but it's kind of grown on me. Having said that, I still favour reverting to normal *I think*... So.... What are people's thoughts? Should it stay or should it be removed?

I've (a) never had a Merc before and (b) never had an auto before so my expectations may be unreasonable but ........ If my car stays in 5th for more than a nanosecond I would be shocked. Even going down hill if I put a gram more pressure on the throttle it shifts down to 4th and then will only...

Has anyone any dealings with Unipart oil. Seems a good deal at £22.61 for 5 litres of 5W-40 synthetic, MB229.3, price includes VAT and delivery. Is it worth a go or should I stay well clear.

Like the title says, the dash lights stay on overnight and kill the battery. Took bleedin' ages to find out what was killing the battery so fast. My wife spotted the lights still on one morning. It is just the lights round the rim of the cluster, not the needles or digits. Phoned MB and...

sometimes when turning right the indicator won't stay on , i have the steering column fully extended towards me and have noticed there is quite a lot of movement in it . you can twist it and that temporarily cures the problem , is there a way to secure it so it doesn't move ? thanks mike .
