    Black Ash or Dark Ash W205

    Looking to order a W205 Sport and considering whether to get black ash or dark ash. Seen several cars with black ash, and like the matt finish, but personally prefer natural wood colour (i.e. brown). Is the dark ash interior matt or gloss? If it is gloss, does it show fingerprints and...

    Loving my non-crabbing (Yet!) C43 Convertible with Premium Plus but there is one niggle after a few days of ownership I have always upgraded the sound system in any car I buy and have enjoyed 400W to 665W systems from Meridien to Bose and was really looking forward to the Burmester "high end"...

    C Class (W205) Cabriolet and Bike

    Any owners out there managed to successfully load a bike into the boot of a C Class Cabriolet with the rear seats folded down - without having to load through an opened roof? Is it a 'both wheels off' job?

    C200 sport W205 steering noise

    I'm new to the forum but I thought it worth mentioning that my C200 sport W205 developed a grinding noise when turning the steering wheel. I took it to Mercedes who told me that it is "very unusual" but took it in to look at. They returned it to me with a new steering column, saying that it is...

    W205 spoiler and night edition lights?

    So far enjoying my C200 SE Exec petrol. However I feel that night edition front and rear lights and possibly a subtle spoiler might look rather nice. Are they available for this model and if yes, any suggestions where might be the best place to buy them from?

    Manual W205 - is it that bad

    I wanted to get some advice on the manual C-class, ideally from someone who has owned one or driven one for a decent period. Let me explain why. The lease on my current Skoda Octavia Scout runs out in June and my company is 'encouraging' me to take a company car instead of a car allowance...

    W205 C300h Tyre Wear Issues

    Hi everyone, Sorry if this is a known issue but my Googling hasn't proved succesful... My dad owns a W205 C300h and the tyre wear has been horrific. Now he normally gets 25k min from his tyres and on the C300h it has chewed them down to 2.5mm in 8k miles. He's complained but it's...

    W205 Audio 20 hangs

    My C220's Audio 20 system hung yesterday, about 20 minutes into a journey. The display screen on the centre console was frozen, nothing changed (time/radio information/heater information, etc.).

    Hi Guys, On my C63s Saloon, I can select Drive or Neutral no problem. On press of the gear shifter and its there. With reverse how ever, seems to be very hit or miss? If in drive, I press once, Neutral, again, still neutral! Can be two or three more presses until reverse is selected. Anyone...

    C63s W205 Cluncky Manual Gears

    When it's cold and in manual gears either in comfort or sports+ the gear changes are smooth. After a while when the engine warms up the third to forth gear is really clunky. Feels like it's being slammed in and the car jolts forward slightly. Switch back to auto and it's smoothly through all the...

    Residual Heat function in GLC X253 / C W205

    Mercedes used to always have a residual heat function where the coolant could keep being pumped through the heater matrix when the car was off. This meant you could run the heating in the car for a long time with the engine off, great when waiting for someone (like the kids). They they then...
