    W124 coupe underbonnet insulation

    Hi. Does anybody know if you can still buy the under bonnet insulation for the above? Just taken the car cover off, opened the bonnet and the insulation looks like it's decayed above the fuse box area, either that or the mice have got in. The rest of it looks fine.

    Weird under-bonnet noise - 2005 E320CDI

    Can anyone help out on this please? On startup, and sometimes in level flight, I can hear a 3 or 4 second long deep burping (or farting) noise from under the bonnet somewhere. I can also feel it through the brake pedal - it vibrates very slightly. I am guessing therefore that it could be ABS...
