w205

Has anybody else had issues with the new C220d when braking at 45mph plus ? The car judders as if it has excessive run out on the discs but this has been checked and they are within tolerance. Car has been back to the MB dealer twice but they have no idea what is causing the judder it has now...

Can anyone tell me if I need shorter wheel bolts when fitting the correct steel spacesaver wheel to my W205 Sport 220 Bluetech.

Hello it seems I have LED bulbs fitted puddle light under the door mirrors on my c220 W205. Do these have to activated or sit her on as I cannot get them to illuminate?

Hi Quick question for you knowledgeable people. Are the standard 17" alloys on the latest W205 dimond cut? I've had conflicting answers. They just look like a very highly polished finish to me. I can see no evidence of any the usual fine cutting marks. There are also a lot of radiused curves...

Hi Looking for some advice over what might appear to be a minor matter with my brand new W205 C Class, but which is aggravating me. I’m having a great deal of difficulty in closing the bonnet – as a result the bonnet open alarm is constantly going off. It seems not to close properly 4...

Hi all, Does anyone know how to safely remove the chrome strip on the boot on a W205 - i want to either coat it in gloss black or hydro dip it carbon to match my upper and lower heckspoiler (boot lid spolier and lower diffuser/tail pipe surrounds on C63S) Steve

So after 14 months, 35,000 miles and 800+ hours of being sat in the driving seat I thought I'd pass on a few thoughts. I have a W205 C250 Bluetec in the sports version and it has been a damn fine motor so far. Have it for a company car so the 109 CO2 things help with the BiK taxation...

Hi all, Am trying to remove the liner on the boot panel on my W205 and the plastic clips are doing my head in. They arent the ones that push in the centre or pop out. They are kind of flat with 3 slits in them. Any idea how to remove them? Or is it just a case of a little brute force? Steve

Hi All, I'm hoping you will share your views/opinions on the c205/w205 Burmester system. Whilst the quality is amazing I am a little surprised at the lack of bass and overall volume. I'm having to up the bass to +6 to get it anywhere near comparable to my 2011 1 series HK system. Is it...

Hi, My 15 month old W205 has developed a clonking/knocking noise from the nearside rear of the car. It only occurs for the first 10-15 minutes of a journey and then disappears completely until the car has cooled down. I had a local garage inspect the rear suspension, suspecting it was a...

Finally got round to recording the cold start on my W205 with the iPhone. I did the same with my old 507 - that had secondary cats removed at the time - interesting to compare with the W205, which has the AMG Performance exhaust. W205 C63S - sports exhaust ON: W204 C63 507 - no secondary...

My W205 when the 'Max' demist button is pressed and fan on full whack, this appears to drive vibration through the steering wheel which I can feel similar to like when you run your tyres over subtle lane vibrations. Initially I thought it was the lane assistance warning me to get into...

Hi all Before I potentially make a fool of myself can someone with a W205 C Class confirm that a fault I think I have is actually a fault? The passenger side light behind the visor only comes on when the mirror cover is opened which seems normal to me. The drivers side comes on as soon you...

If i set the climate control to around 22c or higher i find the dash creaks like mad and drives me crazy :wallbash: at lower temperatures it seems to be fine with either no or the odd squeak. Seems to be something to do with plastic contracting when it warms up. Also find the same from cold when...

Happy New Year everyone wish you a great 2016. Sooo here she is.. finally with us at home.. picked up new years eve 2015 very happy and would highly recommend Mercedes-Benz Slough

Tomorrow I have a appointment to view a w205 coupe at my local dealer. I have a few of questions that I hope you guys can help me with. 1, with it being a brand new model is there any chance of a discount? I have to admit I'm not expecting any . 2, if there's a waiting list of a few months how...

I read that it is set by MB that you need to have 18 inch rims if you get panorama or tow bar. What about winter tires then? Few people would want to have 18 inch on their winter tires. Is it illegal to use like 16 or 17 inch rims? Anyone knows anything about this?

Just fitted the W205 C63 AMG / AMG GT steering. Nice feel to it with extra thickness all round. Was eyeing the alcantara one with red strip '12 o'clock' but as i will be keeping the C63 for more than 5 years... had to settle for perforated leather instead. Bought this from Germany. A bit...

Does the W205 electric seats have an exit position, where the seat goes back when the door is opened, to facilitate exit from the vehicle. Then the reverse when getting into the car, when door is closed it resumes the memorised driving position? Seem to remember some W205 owners saying...
