Hello all, Vito 112cdi 2003 vintage with auto box. 120k miles... All drive suddenly gone. No nasty noises or sign of oil leaks. Oil was changed for pukka merc oil three years ago then the van sat used for a year. Driveshafts and lever linkage all seem intact. Any likely causes to...

Well,most people wouldn't attempt this but I'm a pig headed bugger so I attempted to fit the 2013 black artico/alcantara red stitched interior from a saloon into a 2010 estate!! Obviously the fronts were a doddle but converting a saloon split fold into an estate rear fold was an absolute swine...

Hi Folks, My 2002 2.3K has been spluttering first thing in the mornings, but runs just fine after turning the ignition off and back on - local MB dealer has found a MAF fault code so I guess I need to replace the MAF. Below is a photo of the engine - can some kind person please direct me to...

Hello all, I am hoping someone can help me pair my SAP V4 plug-in module with my HTC One X phone. At the moment I have heard the dreaded descending tone, indicating pairing unsuccessful, so many times it is driving me mad! The phone should work, according to the MB web site, and according to...

I'm pretty sure that the gear selector module on my 2003 C class cdi estate is playing up. I have done a code read and cleared what I could using a Bosch generic reader, codes I could not clear include P240C (x2) signal from selector module not plausible. Started by sticking in high gear...

Hello all MB enthusiasts. Hoping someone can shed some light on my problem with my car brakes. 1st of all its a 1996 C180. Last week I changed the front brake pads and discs, as well as this, I replaced both front calipers for peace of mind. Since then it's been a little bit of a...
