temp

Hi all, I'm new to mercedes cars and this forum. I'm after a bit of advice from other owners. I've just got a brand new e class 350 CDI Blue effic model and the car seems to run slightly warm on the temp indicator. Most cars I've ever owned always run just below halfway on the temp indicator...

Hi Guys Got a weird problem with my 2004 c220 cdi. The car operates at 60 degrees most of the time which i put down to a faulty thermostat but never got round to changing. Since the car had a service A occasionaly the temp will rise to 80 ish but here is the weird part...... i lose 8-10 mpg...

Apparently it's 58 deg C outside! how, what, where to fix? please!

I haven't had much of a play with my S211 E500 since I bought it about a month ago, although I have done a 1500 mile round trip over the last ten days or so. I reckon 22 mpg at best! I keep meaning to read the handbook, which is in the car, which is elsewhere at the moment. The display for...

Hello and help ! I recently sold my bmw 530d 2006 and bought a c220cdi 4dr 2008 i am finding the engine temp running just over the halfway mark prob approx 90 c or so ( not really sure ) and the temperature on the internal heater is very very warm my eyeballs are bubbling in the heat ...

Does any know if there is there more to fitting an OTG to a car without it, than fitting the thermocouple on the front bumper and the LCD display to the instrument cluster? Is the wiring loom different, or does the thermocouple actually wire directly into the back of the dash? Thanks a lot

I have had a problem recently whereby when the car has been driven for around 20 mins the temp gauge goes up towards the red and gets pretty damn close. At this point I usually blast the heater on hot and it falls back pretty quickly. To try and solve the problem I recently flushed the cooling...

Since buying my w124, the OTG has always had a blank display. It has the OTG option, and as the front sensor in the bumper had been mangled by the previous owner, I assumed a new sensor would fix it. A new sensor was ordered from Mercedes and fitted this morning, but still the display is...

Hello to you all, Problem: Coolant temperature rises too slow (20 km trip, 70km/h, coolant temp under 70 degrees Celsius, ext temp cca 7 deg C, town rides means cca 75 deg C after 10-15km at ext temp cca 10-12 deg C). Checked: 1. thermostat out for inspection, closed when cold, fully open when...

Hi all, I'm new here. I bought a new C250 CDI Sport 125Edition - factory order. I got Auto Box 7G Plus, HK, DAB, Split Seats, Command Online (it was part of the 125 package), Pan roof, Iridium Silver, Heated Screen Wash, Factory Collect. Love the car. Just one thing on it - the...

I have a 1997 C200 and I would like to have the display for the outside temp working.It is blank at present and has never worked.What is involved?..Thanks.

The status line on my B class has the speed in KMH displayed above the auto gear section part - it says in my book that this is not changeable in the uk but other countries can have the outside temp displayed there - can this be changed or is it locked down - seems a bit odd to me . Thanks:dk:

Few things ive noticed on my e320. Firstly, When you open the car door the fan kicks in for a few seconds and when you turn the car of and remove the key the fan kicks in again, is this normal? also what should the temp guage sit at? mine varies sometimes at 70-80-95 Thanks

I had my E200 k hooked up to my friends snap-on dignostics last week and I noticed that the air intake temp was reading over 60 degrees celseus . I reckon this is very high as the car was not runnig very long and the outside temp was less than 10 degrees . Would this be pointing to some problem...

Hi there, today in the heat about 26c. My car started to make a horrible vibration/squeeling noise on full lock... literally just started, so I'd assume the Aux belt at the front of the car is starting to slip. It'll be easy enough to change I assume, crack a nut, push over a tensioner, new...

hi guys prob a stupid question but here goes anyway ive got a 1997 c200 and normal driving the temp sits just above 80 when im in traffic it rises slightly to about 90/95 does this seem right if not what temp should it run at

Hello all, this is my first post. Yesterday whilst driving, neither my speedo, nor temp, nor fuel gauge was working. After about five miles and a moment of heavy braking, the fuel gauge came on (I knew it was full and it showed full). About a mile later, the temp gauge came on and gave a...

Info please, as placed a wanted add for my W210 E320cdi avantgarde 2000 V plate estate, temperature sensor. Been told its the one which fits into the block. Problem Engine cranks for an age before firing up (only in morning and worse in cold mornings) rest of time starts on button. New...

Hi all, My E320 W210 normally idles around the 80 degree mark, but during recent bout of warm weather crept up over 90 degrees on occasion - particualrly when not moving much in traffic !!! What is the optimum temperature for this car please and what are acceptable tolerance levels before i...

Sorry in advance for the long post. 95 SL500, twin cam engine (119?) with twin distibutors. Ever since I've had this car the temp varies between 90 degrees and close to a 100 degrees. So far I've flushed the rad (twice) re-filled with Bluecol antifreeze in a strong mix, replaced the thermostat...
