Hi
Recently i have been having a lot of condensate on the interior windows,
today on opening the tailgate i noticed water coming out of the right hand side, the light was also condensated inside.
Do you think the light is causing this or it is getting in elsewhere.

Hi Folks.
Well, since buying the Zoe for my commute, my wife has had the Merc and she doesn't like it. It's too, big, too fast, too many gadgets ..........
I'm considering getting rid as I never get to drive it, and probably buying her a wee Dacia! Crazy I know, but there's no point in...
I was originally thinking of getting Kamikaze Overcoat applied with insane water beading and pearl formation

But their sister product Kamikaze Infinity Wax almost has NO beading at all, almost totally water repellent with no need...
Why does the water temp reading (AMG setting) start at 40 degrees upon the first start up of the day?
The oil temp reading is about right with the current external temp so why not the water temp.
Hello everybody,

Hi does anyone know of anything to remove what look like water marks off the gloss black trim at the bottom of the windows on my e320cdi sport. ? I've tried t cut and wd40 and polish and wax but it won't budge.
I have a 92 R129 SL300-24. Water has started appearing in the passengers footwell. My usual mechanic has had a look but can't find where the water is getting in. Has anyone got any suggestions or suggest someone in the Leeds area that can investigate.
I had planned to replace the roof but would...
Hi all,
I promise I've had a good look on the forums first... (and everywhere else)
My blower motor keeps filling up with water and I can't find where it's coming from! I've taken the scuttle vent covers off and there didn't seem to be much of a blockage, but flushed it all through anyway...
Hi, recently had a water leak on my 2001 Vito 112 which I could kind of make out that it was coming for water pump, had no problems just filled up rad with 1 ltr or 1/2 Ltr depending on drive length. Last night was stuck in traffic and then the warning low water light came on temp gauge never...
As the title says.
I'm not a 'Detailer' like some of you guys, but I do like a clean car and the rear window on my W208 convertible has marks from water on the outside.
I've tried giving it a good scrub, to no avail, so I thought I'd ask the experts.
The car is a 2000 model, so the marks have...
So I removed the rear light clusters from the boot lid, to reveal:
The water leaking in through mostly the top screw hole but also the bottom one. I have put a mix of petroleum jelly and WD40 around the screws to prevent the water from getting in.
It was also only leaking in through the O/S...
My 350 convertible has water sloshing around in the sills noticeable when I brake at slowish speed. Has anyone else had this problem?
I located a plastic screw in plug at the rear jacking point, unscrewed that and loads of water came pouring out so at least the sills are empty now.
BUT...
Contemplating selling my 180K and reinstalling the original audio unit before sale, ergo my retrofitted NTG 2.5 Comand would be up for grabs. Wondering what the market would be?, and what would be a fair asking price for a 100% guaranteed unit.
I saw a thread recently regarding water consumption and steam fro exhaust. An engineer friend of mine had a similar problem on a170 hp seat Leon and having done all the usual checks , head gasket etc. narrowed it down to the cooling circuit on the EGR system bleeding water into the engine. I...
