Hi, would be great if anyone could provide any advice with this one: I Purchased a 2008 E280 CDI with 67k on the clock in January 2013 from Mercedes Bolton (so far done 7k miles year to date on top of this) They sell the car to me with a one year Mercedes Warranty and said "don't worry...

So my dealer 'owes' me 6 months extra warranty (part of a sales agreement, wanted the 6 months remainder of the manufacturers warranty + 1 year), which they've failed to do. So I called Merc UK who in turn chased it up, they have contacted me, and said the dealer will be contacting me to resolve...

Hey folks, So I took the car to Islay and Jura at the weekend and after a particularly long, heavily patched road Im hearing a noise when going over any bumps. Kind of like a brick bouncing about in a plastic box...:dk: I am guessing this might be a broken spring but not sure and no idea...

Hi guys. I've always fancied one since I worked selling mercs in Leeds back on 2004. I really want a cherished one, from an enthusiast with full mbsh. Ideally that has been under teir 1 so all fixes have been carried out. My plan is to get it covered by warranty directs top policy to...

My car is three years old tomorrow and today the rear parking sensor has failed again. I phoned the dealer and she said if I take it in tomorrow and they find it is an issue then it will be under warranty. Still concerned though as they won't be fixing it tomorrow, do you think I will be OK on...

hi. ive acquired a 78k w220 s430 with a full merc service history. one owner. the guy even had his tires and mot done at mercedes :eek: anyway, being out of this 8 year 'goodwill' period, do you think they'd fix a couple of rust spots, or is it a definite 'on your bike son'?

Our MB a 2007 SLK200 was purchased from a MB dealer June 2012 with 40,000 miles clocked up. A service light ('A' service) appeared mid March 2013 with 45,000 miles now recorded and was carried out at a local indi garage that specialise in MB. They carried out the service and reported some...

Hey guys Your thoughts please Bought 12 month full warranty from WD for my 2003 E320 cdi with 137k Price to pay £135 per year or 4 quarterly payments of £33.75. I opted for 4 quarterly payments to start with, and got 14 days to cancel if i change my mind. I asked them just to confirm if...

Please excuse the possibly daft question as I haven't owned a Mercedes since my 1986 230 estate which did get a bit of corrosion under the bonnet. I thought I saw somewhere that newer cars have galvanised panels and an incredible length of warranty. Can anyone elaborate on this and tell me...

Hi guys 1st post for me I'm in the process of buying my 1st c63 and I have around 28-30k to spend. My question is if I buy a non approved used car can I buy a tier 1 or 2 warranty from MB? Thanks in advance Geoff

Hi once again but a quick question and what are your thoughts:- My car is now out of warranty and have looked at the above two and just wonder what your thoughts are. Warranty Direct comes out at £650 for the first year and the Mercedes one would be £545 for a year with £250 excess Thanks...

Hi, e350 CDI Bluefficiency. Just coming up to the end of year 3 with 35k on the clock. Final service is happening soon at the same time as the warranty is about to lapse. Anything I should think of getting the dealership to check out? Tia

Hi all, I bought my 2001 SLK 230 from and am considering buying a warranty - I've been reading a little about them but wanted to hear from my new MB friends whether they think its a good idea? Thanks in advance (",)

Would like some advice please, I am now on my second set of Pagid brake pads. When I bought the car the front pads had been replaced recently along with the discs, after a while they began to squeak and creak, I stripped them down and cleaned them. ( Previous grease-monkey had used copper grease...

Hi, I have just purchased a 2nd hand E350 CDI, Dec 2009. The car has 21,000 miles on the clock. The car has been given a one year warranty but for £1000 I can purchase a further 3 year warranty from the garage taking me to 4 years. Is this worth doing? Many thanks

Thought this article from a recent AutoExpress may be of interest to those who are fighting Mercedes for warranty claims on corroding diamond cut wheels. Issue 1251, February 2013: It's not too clear, but it is the usual corrosion around the centre cap area. Hope it may help...

Hi my cars out of warranty 2009 4 years old and I have some corrosion on my alloy wheels around the centre caps on 3 wheels. New wheels cost around £580.00 each inc vat! Mercedes have offered to replace the 3 wheels for brand new ones and want me to contribute 25% towards both rear wheels...
