Hi All
Bit of a nightmare, just had to abandon car & get a taxi home after a dental appointment (talk about adding insult to injury!)
It's an S reg C200.
I walked up to it, the door unlocked on the remote. Put the key in the ignition, it only made a half hearted unlocking sound and wouldn't...
I had the misfortune to have to drive home from Manchester airport at 16:30 yesterday, my journey home means I have to go from the south of Manchester to the north, oh the joys of the M60 at rush hour. As it happens, there was fog over most of Manchester. If we were driving on country roads...
Hello everyone,

Hi,
I've been getting this rather drastic warning, seemingly randomly, and I'd appreciate hints as to what it might be before I approach a mechanic. (Googling for this problem has been unfruitful.)
The full warning is "Oil Level. Stop car, turn eng. off", in red on the dash, accompanied by...
Getting this on dash, all lamps working, changed bulbs as precaution.
Lamps flash at correct rate, but arrow on dash flashing faster as if bulb blown.
Any ideas?

My 2000, W202 CDI auto won't turn over when I turn the key, intermittently, mostly when it has been left for overnight. It just clicks like the battery is flat. The battery is in good condition. All lights on the dash correct: glow plug lamp on for a few seconds, etc.
If I move the gear...
The r/h door mirror turn indicator lights have stopped working with a fault prompt in the panel cluster along with the green turn arrow flashing quicker than normal.
They also do'nt flash (r/h side) when locking & unlocking.
For some weeks prior to this I would just get the panel warning, along...
Hi distinguished members of the Mercedes Benz Club,
Last week I made the best purchase of my life so far- a Mercedes CLK 270 CDI (YESSSS!).
The car has been driving like a dream, however yesterday I encountered something that may be a problem. A friend wanted to take it for a spin, I sat with...
I keep getting a dash warning saying the side mirror turn indicator not working. But it is working. It then clears itself after some use, but then comes back next time I use the car. Any ideas.
Guys
Will be taking the R-Class to Le mans this friday, Ferry companies want us to lock the car without the alarm activated to avoid unnecessary noise. Do I I just need to switch off the interior sensor or is there another way around this?
thanks
Paul
