Hi, having recently bought an SLK, like it but have 3 issues, so thought I would put them in separate threads per section
Just checking today and found the underneath cover (spare wheel etc) to be damp. Therefore a leak somewhere. Has anyone had any experience of this?
I have pushed a cable...
Does anyone have instructions for removing the rear interior door panels on a W169 A-Class (I think these have been emailed to various forum members on request), or alternatively does anyone have experience of the following issue:
I’m having a problem with water getting in on the rear passenger...
My water pump has started to leak, does anyone know what model of pump I need and roughly what a garage should be charging to replace the pump.My Merc is a 98 (r) 250TD estate
Thanks :-)
Recently noticed a water leak dripping from gearbox area in 04 plate E270 CDi. Phoned indie garage who advise that this is normal and is only condensate from the air conditioning (which is constantly set to auto). Is this indeed the norm and nothing to worry about?
After doing a 50 mile round trip today I have noticed water dripping underneath my W204. It appears to be coming from somewhere towards the back of the engine. It isn't gushing out but is dripping fairly constant. Guessing the quantity I'd say its maybe a quarter pint or so. Any ideas?
I noticed after a heavy rain shower last night the carpet in my 2004 SL55 AMG behind the drivers (RHD) seat was wet and water droplets were coming in from the rear quarter panel roof area where the hinge is. All the seals were replaced a couple of years ago so the previous owner told me and...
ML55 AMG sunroof has suddenly started to leak, allowing rainwater into the surrounding well... Tips for this please because this is causing further problems.
The rainwater exits on the nearside of the well through its drain hole, but the drivers side drain sends the water down into the...
Hi I've just bought a "94" 320 R129, not perfect but a nice honest car so I'm working through the odd niggles you always get with old cars.
One thing is I've just found damp in the drivers footwell after heavy rain. It's directly below the door mirror. Could it be this or am I barking up the...

I need to buy a new water pump for my C124 300CE ( Chassis number:
WDB1240502B290228 ).
However, mine seems slightly different to the ones I'm seeing online and also to a spare that I have from a W201 2.6 engine. The one on my 300CE appears to only differ in that the opening/port you see just...
Hi everyone i hope someone can give me some advise,i got a mercedes sprinter 315cdi 2006,ive got a problem with the water temperture light on the dashboard, after starting the van within 1minute the light comes on, I've change the thermostat and the water reservoir coolant sensor but light stays...
Hi Everyone, just doing a bit of maintainence on my car,and noticed on topping up my water bottle, it appears to be running out from under the wheelarch !.
Any idea how to get to it?, assuming it lives behind the wheelarch cover, thanks. ( i was very careful not to spill any, so it,s not that )
Hi guys,
the wife just got back from shopping with wet feet.
She has driven the car in rain before, but not in a torrential downpour.
The footwell carpet is soaked and she said it was dripping on her feet from above the accelerator pedal.
I've had a look and can see streaks of water down the...
When my CLK 350 is parked outside in heavy rain it gets a build-up of, at least, a good tablespoon full of rain water "somewhere" in the front area (bow) of the soft top roof.
This does not drip into the car whilst it is stationery, but shows itself as a good deluge of water onto my passenger's...
As above. Took me a couple of hours and a couple of bolts snapped off but extracted ok. Hardest thing was getting the poly belt routed correctly without a diagram. got there in the end. Cant believe how much play there was on the inside bearing of old pump. Its a wonder the seals didn't go.:eek:. T.
I've been away for 2 months (May-June), parked the car on the curb and when I returned brakes felt like I was driving on eggs. Mechanic told me my brake fluid was water, not brake fluid. He has no idea how did that happen, nor I do.
The car is C200K, 2001 production. I bought it 3 years ago...
Hi chappies. Well I've decided to replace the water pump as a precaution while I'm replacing my viscous fan coupling. I've got some prices from euro car parts, Wunderpartz Mercedes and my local factors but was wondering if there's anywhare else i should try. Cheers chap's, happy polishing.
i have a choice of two different water pumps for my c280 v6. Circoli and KWP from euro car parts. You guys come across these Names. Not getting a Merc part as its £200.00 dearer:eek:
As above. Has any one replaced one of these items ? i'm about to change the viscous fan coupling and have all the right tools and the pulley is a bit wobbly. it feels like it maybe sprung or something. Cheers chappies.:thumb::thumb::thumb:
