Got into the CLS after work today (3:50pm) and tried to start it up. The starter went mental and just kept going but the engine wouldn't take. I had to switch it off using the key. Tried to start it again, this time it caught and started but the display flashed up ESP Error, ABS Error, Tyre...

I decided to test drive a c-class today. Went to MB at Cribbs Causeway, Bristol, where they had a number in stock, and asked if I could try a c-class sport. Salesman took all my details, then asked when I would be looking to change cars. I answered any time in the next 6 months, at which point...

Read all the posts on here and realised Ian is about 4 miles from my house! Had my E55 AMG in for a B service and air con sorting. Could not meet a nicer more helpful guy than Ian, after dealing with so many BMW/Merc main agents it was an eye opener. Like so many others I highly recommend...

Thought i would post this as might be useful for some to read.....I bought an APS Comand unit off ebay for £450 from a Lithuanian seller navi55 or similar.... Unit turned up yesterday so using some instructions from mercupgrades.com i fitted it last night. It took about 1 hour - 1 hour and half...

Took my car in to MB Bedford on Monday to sort out rust on rear wheel arches. Got an email this morning to say the car was ready for collection on time. When I got there they explained what work had been carried out. Helpful and pleasant staff. Also provided a courtesy car. I know a lot of...

Just had a list of niggles and an MOT completed on my '04 W211 and I've got to say the whole experience was painless and pleasant thanks to Hughes and Service Plus. I'm loving MB! New brake pads AND discs all round, two new rear coils, new wing mirror housing/wiring to fix intermittent...

A surprising title! I remember a post that rolled around to complaints about firmware/software imposed on phone buyers by respective service providers. Just bought a phone at Carphone and the Manager informed me that phones bought with sims, not contract and not exactly PAYG, are as the...

I just thought I'd share my experience with Nikon this week. Basically my 5 year old Nikon coolpix 5700 died on me this week. I picked it up to use it and the CCD had died, with weird psychadelic images on the screen. I rang Nikon and they said that it was a known issue and despite the...

..well, won't start :( and stuck in my garage .. which doesn't help matters ! Very disappointing .. never had this on any of my 3 mercs ! Was hoping not to have to put Mobilo to the test, but this will be my first experience with them ! They were called 15 mins ago ... lets see how quickly...

Right then. Long story so I shall keep to the main points! Tuesday Night - went to MB Sheffield to price and spec up a new C220cdi Sport - total spec (inc Comand which I added when I got home) costs about £35k for December delivery. I told my salesman, John, that I would think about the...

Well, as those of you who've read my previous air con threads know, it's been playing up lots recently. Well, the codes (after much work) showed "coolant level low", so I brought the guy from ac4cars.co.uk over again (I'd been to him before but he didn't know how to clear the error codes, and...
