Hi Guys
I am after some advice here regarding the below.
My dad has a W221 2008 320 CDI SWB with genuine MB 18" wheels (245's at the front and 275's at the rear, if I remember correctly) and due to going abroad, the car will remain in a garage for 5 weeks and will not be started (since I...
Hi, I have an SLK 350 (05 Reg) purchased in July from an independent garage. Noticed early that gear change was lumpy. After having codes checked , then gearbox oil & filter change, the garage used Merc specific analyser to check problem. Pointed to the gearbox ECU. Part ordered form MB (1 week...
Well I have had my ML270 W163 a few weeks now & overall I am over the moon with it, it is everything I hoped it would be. There have been a few hiccups but this was to be expected on a used vehicle. Up to now the following has needed to be sorted:
New front brake pads & discs.
Front wheel...

Tyre pressure warning keeps coming on on 15+ mile journeys and MB are stumped!

Preamble : Got a new E220 CDI Sport Coupe 3 weeks ago as a replacement for my ageing W220 S500.
Now that the snow has appeared and my car is not looking too new and shiny, I thought I should make a post to reflect on my 800 miles spent in my new car.
Where do I start ???
There are so...
Previous two weekends I've been on-call so just sitting around the house but the weather was horrid so I couldn't wash the car and I knew I had to do something this weekend - even if it was just flushing out the arches and underbody...
In the morning I changed the pollen filter as the HVAC...
Very sad to say that my nice new C63 estate which I collected on November 23rd is now languishing at MB Milton Keynes waiting to have its gearbox taken out :(
I'd noticed over the last couple of days some small oil patches on the driveway and after a drive today had to pull over to inspect...
Hi Guys
after only 4 weeks of ownership,the roof pump failed on my 2005 clk,I did buy this car from a dealer (not a main dealer) but a dealer that has been around for a few years! he is saying it his not his responsibility to fix this!(and his attitude is a bit aggressive) it has been into a...
The test of the practicality of the CLS as a family car was always going to be put to the test in our annual summer hols trip into Europe. With roofbox on (necessary evil) we cruised across to France, then Italy and back. It racked up 2,300 miles in 2 weeks and it didn't miss a beat. It happily...
If this is the sign of things to come, this car wont be around for long with me....
I'm really not impressed that a 5 year old car with 23k miles and full Mercedes Service history should need a new rear Air Suspension/shock absorber strut.
So £1600 later and both rear struts replaced (as...

Hi all,
Thought I would give a summary of my car after 9 weeks of ownership.
Spec:
C250CDI Coupe Edition 125
Cavansite Blue
Alpaca Grey Leather
Panoramic Roof
Dynamic Handling Package
Extended Light Package
Engine – given this is a 4 cylinder, the performance is very good. Noise levels rise in...
So after nearly 2 weeks with my C63, how am I getting on?:rolleyes:
I suppose the first thing that really gets to you is the noise.:D Much discussed on this forum, but you really can't get away from the fact that it is fantastic. As the wife says "it sounds like there's a motorbike just...
.........worthy of your hard-earned shekels.
"ClassicCars" issue no 453 (the one with two Sunbeam Tigers on the front cover) has got a few items of Mercedes related interest.
First off is on page 12 relating to a one-off 300SEL 6.3 coupe.
Pages 26 & 114 also dedicated to MB.
Plus of course the...
Hi there, I recently bought a CLS 320 (2 weeks ago) and being my first Mercedes I am very sad to report the following - please help!
I hit a kerb yesterday when parking (as the road is narrow and I needed to mount the kerb), I think I was doing 5-10mph max, as I was slow, and then mounted the...
