vacuum

Hi, I have a 2001 W203 C200 Kompressor with M111 engine. The rear headrest release and headlight level adjuster are inoperative. Since both systems run on vacuum I think they are the result of a single failure somewhere in the vacuum source. Can someone spend a little bit of time...

Need a handheld vacuum for the car - any recommendations? I know handheld vacuums are not as powerful as as conventional household vacuums but it really irritates me when the car is internally dirty, and its usually only in the footwell that debris is accumulated, so a regular hoover should...

Hi all, Hoping someone car offer some advice or experience on a problem I'm having with the central locking on my SL55. It recently stopped working and upon investigation I found the actual motor inside the vacuum pump was running on continuously to the point it was very hot to touch. Had...

Hi all I have a newly-bought E320 1995. The central locking worked on both doors and boot lid, but not the fuel flap lock. Then the doors/boot locks failed. I suspect the problem is either the fuel flap actuator of perhaps the pump itself. I have located it, but disconnecting the...

Hi I have recently inherited a 1976 450SLC with a 4.5litre engine and LHD Its not run for about 5 years and I am aware that before it was pushed into the garage my father had removed the vacuum hoses with the idea of replacing them. This never happened and as such I am now faced with a car...

Hi Can anyone confirm that a vacuum control valve (EGR or Turbo) requires power to shut off vacuum, and passes vacuum with no power. Just want to make sure that mine are working as they should. Many thanks John 2003 S210 I6 320 CDI

Hi Going to spend tomorrow doing further work on my errant car. Stripping off the inlet tract to sort inlet flaps, and also pull the turbo to check variable vanes and also the condition of the cat matrix. So far I have shifted the limp mode from with a few minutes to quite a drive by fitting...

Hi had a chat with a merc specialist today regarding the on going problems with my car. He suggested that I check out the vacuum control system for the EGR valve and turbo actuator. My car is fine until it operates one of the above, so either the vacuum itself is collapsing when its asked...

I have a Sealey Vacuum Oil & Fluid Extractor. It's a manual operated vacuum extractor with 6.5 litre capacity. It's boxed and as far as I know unused although I bought it from Amazon as an open box item. I don't really have a need for it and it's just sitting here in my office from when it...

Just switching on the ignition and waiting 5 seconds or so makes the vacuum motor in the boot side panel start buzzing. It can do this for 5 seconds or minutes. After starting the car it'll come on when it feels like it and carry on for as long as it likes. Recently the noise has been noticed...
