Hi, What's the fuel sender like to get at on a W126 SE300? Just bought the car and in fairness to the trader he told me about it Gauge is sticking just above quarter full. Anyone know about this particular fault? Cheers LamboV8S

I have had the parking brake cables adjusted and I have also had the clicker re-installed and I have lubricated the pedal mechanism but the brake is still intermittantly not fully releasing. Any tips or ideas? Is it best to remove, clean and lubricate the assembly or get a new one?Thanks.

Finally picking up the C55 tomorrow (yay!) and have one minor technical question already! The electric front headrests stick, though they will move with a little firm "help" from your hand. I imagine it's probably not something that's moved very often in its life and is possibly just a bit in...

HI, I have a 2005 (55) E220 CDI Avantgarde, I've had it a couple of years and can only sing it's praises, But have an issue now. whilst driving the car it will randomly give a judder from the gearbox and then gets stuck in the gear it's in and the tiptronic will not allow manual change. also...

I sometimes get more resistance from the selector lever when moving throughout P R N D when manouvering. The other day it momentarily would not move out of D. Its going in for an MOT and will raise this then, but is this a common issue on 7g cars. I know on 220 S classes this happens but not...

I was due to pick up my C200 Komp on wed,after the initial test drive struggled to get the key out (checked it was in P etc) the young lad who brought the car round for me also struggled with it,as did the mrs ( we have a similar key in the c240) The salesman did however manage it ok and it was...

After parking up my W208 for 3 months I took it out yesterday and the brakes were fine. Then after about ten minutes I noticed the brake pedal wasnt coming all the way back up and the pads were squealing as I drove. It got progressively worse over the next ten minutes and the brake pedal wasnt...

Hi everyone this is my first thread, I have got a 53 plate ML270 cdi and when you drive at night the lights flicker between dipped and full beam and completely off! I had the lighting stork replaced and the problem persists, it seems to only do it when you drive so could it be a loose connection?

Can any one help. I have a ML 320 cdi 4Matic with 7 speed gearbox that occasionally locks in 2nd or third gear. My local garage identified that there was no signal from the turbine speed sensor. The fault appears to correct itself when I remove the key from the ignition and start again. I...

I noticed a previous post regarding alloy wheels sticking on the hubs and becoming difficult to remove on the roadside if you get a puncture. I thought it worth adding my views on why using copper ease or copper grease is worthwhile. The reason the wheels corrode and stick to the hub is...

New on here but I've been collecting buying tips for a while on the above model. I have found one that needs minor tidying quite near me for a good price, but there is an issue with the sunroof. It slides open with no issues, but when trying to close it you need to tap the button repeatedly and...

Gearbox (auto) appears to be sticking in 2nd - what can I do/ try? It will still go and will de select and can move into reverse but once d engaged seems to stay in 2nd. even manual selection doesn't over ride :dk:

Slight sticking especially when hot, identified as spindle bearings in rheostat at end of cable, temporary fix silicone spray. Reason poor spring geometry, spindle carries force of pedal return spring as well as its own return spring. Solution, after a lot of thought, shift return spring to a...

I have had my W208 CLK sitting for a while since it was sorn and now and then I start the engine to keep it from causing any long term issues. I have recently noticed the ignition barrel has become sticky! When I put the key in it locks fine but as I turn it it does not click into the 1 and 2...
