    W168 headlight

    Passenger side, W168. From a 2003 A-Class so it has the clear glass. Also would be a nice upgrade for earlier cars, looks much nicer than the pre-facelift headlight. £25+postage or buyer can collect. (Apologies for the picture quality!)

    W168 - MAF fault code - P0100 - what effect on the car?

    OK, so it looks like I need to get this fixed. But in the meantime, what effect is it having? Im assuming since the airflow is not being measured correctly its having an effect on fuel mixture so affecting performance and mpg? If so how badly - doesnt seem too bad at the moment....

    W168 headlights

    I want to fit the facelift (clear glass) headlights to my pre facelift A160. I know that this is quite a common place mod, but what bothers me is that my current lights have a separate fog lamp bulb. The facelift has a fog/main beam bulb. Are the facelift lights plug and play or do I need to...
