temperature

Hi We have a need for thermocouples at work at the mo and have been doing a bit of experimenting on my 80 mile trek to work. Today it was turbo temperature. I jammed a thermocouple into the big circular clamp that clamps the down pipe to the turbo. Results cruising at 70 mph temperatures...

Hi all, Im new to the world of Mercedes so I apologise in advance if i'm asking a stupid question! .......... Does anyone know if it is possible to replace the External Termperature LCD in the dash on a 2001 W210 E320CDi and how much it will cost? I have recently bought my first Merc and...

My 300CE seems to operate "warmed up" at around 50 degrees and hardly ever gets up to 80. Is this normal? It seems a bit cold to me. Any advice on what I should be looking at? Could the thermostat be stuck and if so would this be making my cold starts difficult? Adam

Hi I brought my first merc ever (E270 CDI Avantgarde). I brought it from Merc Direct so it has a full year warranty with it. I want to find out as to what the average engine temperature should be. When the car is in motion, the temperature stays below 80 degrees because of cold air blowing on...

Climate is too cold today, even on 23. Is there a sensor, can I clean the dust out? W210, 2000.

Ok ok, I guess I'm going mad with mods and so, anyone (Shude?) got part numbers for the temperature gauge that sits in the dash for a W202?

Hi there all I've had continued heater problem with my W210 - I've replaced most things that I can think of, and can't see where to go with it next.... In short, my car "used" to have problems with the fan speed, insofar that the fan would not be properly controlled by the settings on the...

Here's a bizarre one... on my W210 E-class I have air-con (not climate control). Quite regularly, when the car is quiet enough for me to listen (i.e. stationary) I can hear a regular ticking or clicking noise that appears to come from the area of the glovebox. At first I thought it was the...

My 1997 202 with air conditioner and a electric cooling fan had engine over heating problem recently. The water pump was replaced with a new one last week. Now with the air conditioner off and idling starting from a cold engine, the electric fan does not cut in until the temperature meter...

Hi guys, is there a how to guide detailing the procedure to remove the OTG? many thanks! Zak

Just wondered is it normal for my car to run at slightly higher temprature driving at 90mph on the motorway and also to run slightly higher in this hot whether, car usually runs at slightly over 80 now in this whether and motorway runs at around 90 is that right?

The outside temperature gauge on my 1989 SL has never worked since I bought the car. I take it there is the gauge and a sender unit fitted somewhere, but where is the sender unit? And when I do locate it what is the best way to check the sender unit and the gauge to see which item is...

Hi There I have a 95 W124 220CE. Last week the digital temerature gage on the dash board started flashing for about 1 hour. After that it is showing the wrong outside temperature reading. It is always in the negative range and this morning it was -15 degrees centrigrade :cool: . Has anyone...

Anybody know if there is a way to get the Temperature displayed instead of the Speed in Km/Hr. I know I can get the temperature if I scan through the menu, but in these cold climes of North Scotland it should be in constant view for safety's sake!

Hi All, On the W211 when the outside temperature gets down to 3degrees or below... does the electronics warn you to this drop in temp....or does it just ignore the freezing conditions..... Regards Paul

How weird is this. Last Tuesday car went into body shop for 5 days for major repairs (wings, doors, tailgate, front panels, bumpers, usual E class malarkey) and when it came out today the temperature gauge to the L of the odometer was reading -38C, yes, minus thirty-eight degrees centigrade and...

My CLK 55's (W208) water temperature is usually about 85C. In heavy traffic however, it goes to more than 104C. I know that 104C is still not in the 'danger' zone, but don't understand why in the C240 (W202) I had, it never went above 90C, regardless of how bad the traffic was. The coolant is...

Autoglass replaced my windscreen recently and since then I have had a catalogue of woe with the heating system culminating with me replacing my duovalve. Which route does the wire from the internal cabin air temperature sensor take? I don't want to cast aspersions but when the Autoglass guy...

Help !!! I have a E320 Coupe 1995 model. On the LCD dash display below the speedo the gauge is suggesting it is 58 deg C. Is this a simple case of faulty external temp sensor ?? where is this unit is it easy to replace ?? and any idea on price part no etc ?? Any ideas much appreciated.

Would anyone know: is it possible to override the rear temperature controls from the front, with luxury climate on a W211? Would be a bit of a pain to have the kids fiddling around turning them up to 11, etc :)
