switching

Hi all. If anyone can help with this I'd be grateful... I have an ATI 5870 card which feeds audio and video via HDMI into a home cinema amp. The issue I have is that some games stop outputting audio. As an example, Dangerous Waters (recently bought over Steam) has audio in the menus but...

Hi all, Have w210 01 estate. the heated driver seat wasnt working so i wiggled some wires as suggested and it now works, but coincidentally around the same time, the stereo (Audio 10 CD head) decided to a) stop switching off when the ignition was swicthed off and b) stopped allowing the...

Hi All. Is there a way to switch the headlights for driving in France & Spain on my 2002 W220 S320cdi, other than using the Halfords type of beam deflector, as these look dodgy to fit with the sloped light covers, ie, how would you fit them?

Very odd this - W202 1998 - when I switch the lights on, the instrument panel and gear shift panel lights come on immediately, the lights in the fan/heater control panel (wheel and dial type) come on about 1-2 seconds later. When I switch off - there is the same delay. From this I guess there...

If I turn the air-con off, or re-start the car (several hours) after a run with the air-con on, the screen mists up. I understand that the evaporator is likely to be covered in condensation, but is this behaviour normal. I'm wondering if the evaporator drains are blocked so the condensation...

I have noticed that after switching the engine off, but still being in the car, that the ventilation comes on for short bursts of time. It is not the rest ventilation that can be activated to keep the car cool, but it seems to be doing it by itself. Is this correct, or might I have a...

Is it possible to permanently disbale/mute the voice that gives directions on the Nav system? At the moment, I have to push the mute button each time I enter a destination. Thanks v much

I have a E320 CDI with 130,000 km on the clock. Recently and unpredictably it has started to switch to emergency run mode: no kick down, does not go over 3000 rpm, lots of black smoke. Then when I stop and switch off the engine and restart the problem has gone away. I recently had a service and...

I picked up a new SLK 350 from the dealers a couple of weeks ago and will be taking it to the continent sometime during the summer. When I asked about converting the headlights for driving in France they said to bring it in and they would do it. I am told there is a switch somewhere behind the...

Hi, I have fitted a Becker Cascade 7944 to the W208. Basically I have this bizarre problem of the headunit switching off automatically after an hour of being on. It makes the shutdown soft Beep and then if you press the power button quickly, it comes back on, or else it shuts down and you...

Hi there all, simple question, does anybody know if anybody has managed to fit a 'switch' to enable the traction control off and on, it would be nice to have a little control in the matter :) and if one wanted to derestrict ones C36 how'd one do it, or is there a 'guy' that does? :)

Greetings! I understand that these can be "switched" for driving on the right. Anybody know how to do this? Have been through the manual and can't find any reference. Help would be very much appreciated Steve

Guys I have a COMAND in my (dad's) 220E 04 plate Elegance. However I don't seem to be able to stop the MP3 (or Audio CD) playback without turning off the entire COMAND unit. Obviously when you power off COMAND this disables the phone, the NAV and everything else too which isn't ideal. In other...

Have had my 250TD for 6 months and am generally pleased with it, its a fairly high milage car with 170,000 on it,but recently have started to geta few problems: When travelling up an incline at about 85mph, namely the M6 from the end of the M6 toll road uphill towards Corley sevices, the...

Hello everyone, Silly question but cant find an answer in the handbooks. When I switch off and remove the key I get a BING,BONG,BING,BONG like sound. I have never bothered about it as I assumed it was just an overly stupid way to say that I can get out of the car now. Last week a friend...

...instead of the usual 30mins. is this because of the filter becoming clogged and require replacing or is it a bigger fault. Hopefully it's the former.
