trip

As above detailed the s211 ready for our road trip to Austria friday

Hi all, 7 weeks of summer jobbing at DAIMLER have come to an end and it's now time to sort out the final bits before our second UK road trip starts. Some of you might remember that we did the same thing two years ago. My mate Felix, me and the old red(ish) Benz, from Stuttgart up to Inverness...

Only a small thing I know but on the Odometer there is, what I assume, a trip meter above the car's mileage. Can I reset this, if so how. I have managed to reset the 'After Start' and 'Since Reset' but not the figure that shows on the default screen. Ian

Well, after owning my CL for 9 months I thought it was high time that I should use it the way it was intended and take it on a long journey. I had tried last October but an EIS failure meant that a jaunt up to Scotland had to be done in my Phaeton instead... This time, though, nothing would...

I had spoken to Olly on the forum and had got my self booked in to have the gearbox oil and brake fluid changed on the E55k. The day came and i was running late. Eventually at around 10:30 i contacted the reception and told the lady that i was running late and that i should be with them in...

Hi, I have already run this through a few people I know here, but just throwing this out there for interest. There are now 8 people, 5 from this forum going out on Sunday September the 13th, via the tunnel and a long leisurely cruise down to an English owned hotel on the borders of Bordeaux...

Hi everyone, My 2000 SLK320 R170 has recently had a new alarm siren fitted at an indi. However, upon trying to reset the double wrench service - I noticed that the trip mileage is not displayed at all. I have tried to reset the service indicator with no results. Help please, anyone. Thanks...

I'm just finalising details for our summer holiday - it started by booking a short cruise from Southampton, but it has grown and grown into a road trip to and from Southampton. I'm hoping that club members can help with suggestions for more things to see/do en route… here's the route so far...

Well also Utah and Arizona but a highly edited version which has a mainly motoring related theme. Took up on a long standing offer to visit friends in Colorado and built a trip around that and of course the mountain of frequent flyer miles built up over the years. Now one of these are...

We are off to the US for three weeks, quite a few friends in Colorado but also spending some time in Utah. Flying in & out via Denver and the plan is essentially a long loop very roughly as follows: Denver Gunnison Telluride Silverton Durango Moab Grand Junction New...

On the way to Scotland again. Stunning mpg from a 3.5 :)

Long time lurker on here. Trip to MSL today with a problem which turned out to be cracked manifold. Now booked in for Kleeman Headers, 77 mm pulley , remap and split cooling. As usual service superb. ChisA was there with his Monster CLS, and being the Gent he is he took me for a...

Better stop for Petrol soon! 37 mpg from a 3.5 petrol :)

Forgot to post this up - went to MSL again as my car is smelling a bit rich. Turns out the IC pump is knackered - no nonsense getting to the cause. Had rear shockers fitted promptly as well as chicken burgers this time! Cheers Acid / Sarim.

Went over to Stuttgart to look at cars! Somehow got clearance for this and even accompanied by Mrs Cris! Went on the Porsche Factory tour then to the Porsche Museum and the following day off to the Mercedes Museum ...and some shopping in Konigstrasse. If you find yourself there the...

Hi folks, So booked my skiing trip to the French Alps. Decided to take my C63 estate and now need to think about what to take for the car. I already decided against winter tyres as I live in London and normally drive short distances around town. Just can't justify spending that much for 2-3...

Hello. I am new this froum and came across it while trying to google my problem. Hopefully someone can assist me. A few days ago I traded in my 2010 e220 coupe for a 2012 cls 350. I took the car for a long drive yesterday and noticed that the mpg was not updateing to the point after...

I'd been toying with the idea of getting the c63 mapped for a while and was going to wait till next year when weather had picked up abit and would be driving it a bit more. Then a couple of weeks ago a lovely Black Friday deal popped up on here for a handheld and tune. So I thought at that...
