Does the tailgate of an S202 fit into an S202? I am hoping to buy one that is a little less biodegraded and want to bring it back to base!

I see some dash cams have a capacitor while others don't. What are the advantages or disadventages of a capacitor?

Hi there, The other day the interior blower would not shut off, did a search on the forum to see what the problem might be. Checked for water in the footwell and sure enough, it was soaked.:crazy: Now this surprised me, because I have read about this problem previously and before the...

Hi all I have an E280 CDI Sport Estate 2009 Currently has 18" wheels, with 245 on the front and 265 on the rear. We spend quite a bit of time in the alps over winter and proper winter tyres are a must. So, should I just get the same size tyres, but winter ones, or should I get a...

Hi all, Not sure if anyone will be interested but on 1st/2nd May it's the Lydden Hill BHP Performance show. I was wondering if anyone is thinking of going and if so.... Wouldn't a convoy of V8 AMG's look good! Steve Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Soooo.... Today my car (s320 CDI 2003)randomly conked out and wouldn't start. It came up with an EPC error when it happened. I managed to pull over and called the AA out. So the AA man came and scanned it, it said low fuel pressure in the fuel rail, we assumed the high pressure pump was...

Hi All, I recently had the common boot problem that was fixed by me playing around with the pin switch and now everything works as it should (from the key, the fob and the console) but I now have the console switch light permanently illuminated red. I presume that this means there is some sort...

Funny how far eastern car design is so ugly. I don't think the R230 has anything to worrry about.

On Sunday I decided to take a run upto Pitlochary to see my friend Greig (who the Scots forum members have met) for some lunch and a day out. He was coming down from the Highlands so it was a convenient place to meet. Needless to say I could have gone up the boring way by the A9, but I...

i'm getting prices for brakes & pads & have been asked for my car VIN no. from one garage - is this usual? i've never been asked for it before. i'm probably being overly cautious, but thought i'd better ask! ;) thanks

Hi all, So I've got the common battery drain problem. Had a read of all the posts related to this issue and decided to find out where mine is coming from. Connected the car up to a multimeter and had a 1amp drain. Disconnected fuses one by one and found that: Disconnected fuse 64 and current...

Hello. My much-beloved C270 CDI (S203, estate, 2002 plate) has yet again lost power - classic limp symptoms: won't rev over 2000ish, gets to 80 on the motorway but very slowly, goes up hills slower than a 40 ton truck, etc. This sometimes happens on start, sometimes after anything between 5 and...

my car is really breaking my heart im starting to hate it my problem is sometimes while driving the car would lose power and the needle on the rev counter would bounce all over the place and the car would feel like its going to stall and when i pull over on the side of the road and turn ignition...

Have been going through the intermittent brake light routine recently, muffin boy replaces pedal switch no difference, lock to lock tried quick scan around car over few weeks was off for a plug into star £57 at Mercedes Agent, ferreting around under bonnet pulled fuse out and replaced not lit...

Hello Lads, It was just yesterday after a bright sunny morning, I thought of giving the car a nice inn and out clean process. I started off with the engine bay, checked all the fuses, got rid of the dried - stacked up leaves on the fuse boxes and just wipped down the engine plastic cover and...

Hi, When I bought the 1999 CLK430 a few months ago, the car had bubbling rust at the back of the rear arches and minor rust at the front arches. I paid £350 to get all 4 panels sorted (was mates rate) and the car looked immaculate when I got it back. At the time I was advised that the R/H rear...

I have just had a proper drive of our 55 C 220 CDi Avantgarde that has done 23k miles and it steers to the left quite drastically, I have tried it out on a few different roads and if I take my hands off the steering wheel it will veer into the kerb within 40 yards @ 50mph. This is a car that...

Further to my post under 'W202 C220 CDI preglow light oddity' I'm pleased to say the dealer I bought the car from fixed the problem under a six month warranty. They did so promptly and without question, and provided courtesy cars although these were a G reg BMW 316 with a knackered diff and then...

Hello all, one of my French mate has been contacted to buy his car and as usual the buyer wants to give more money etc...We have an e-mail address and mobile number (it rings). Does anybody know what else we can ask of the buyer that will help identifying him before reporting him to the police ?
