wrong

A few recent threads in here have talked about people not getting everything as specified on their new cars. I had no idea before that this would happen (how naive!) so it made me start to think about a comment someone made when I first posted pics of my new toy. They said that these aren't...

On a cold startup, I was hearing what sounded like a hole in a joint in the exhaust or a gap in the manifold and it would go away after about a minute or so which I put down to the the joint heating up, and closing. I took it to an exhaust centre and when they examined the car, they said the...

So heavy snow fall today meant I got caught in difficult conditions just a mile from home. On an incline, white roads kerb to kerb. The car infront stopped so I had no option to also stop and then could not get going again, back end sliding to the nearside. Two guys pushed me up the hill until...

Some of you will have seen my previous thread in relation to MPG, well i fitted a thermostat and that is fine now but the MPG is still low. I know since the stat the outside temp has dropped the last couple of days, last night going to work it was 2 degrees. Normal journey is 14 miles, few...

The problem I'm about to describe is intermittent and even then, random... When i start the car after long periods of standing (say three to four weeks of being parked)... Under any kind of acceleration, it's like it is misfiring. The harder you press the throttle, the worse it is, almost...

Mercedes Benz 220 SE cabriolet QLD REGO & RWC | eBay

Leaving aside judgements on style and the desirability of having non OE wheels, what are the problems with AMG copies? I'm thinking more about the manufacturing side. I've been told that the wheels are similar in terms of the metal, but that the paint finishes are lower quality. Can anyone...

I'm a new member and have just purchased a 2003 C-270 CDI Estate. It looks like one of the previous owners tried to convert this to a boy racer sports car instead of a standard estate. The standard 16-inch wheels have been change for MB 17-inch alloys with low profile and wider sports tyres...

Hi guys, just want people's opinion, I had ordered a new e220 cdi sport estate, the car was specked with 19" alloys, full leather, the new Becker sat nav, privacy glass, debadged and panoramic roof. After initially agreeing a price and shaking hands, the sales guy put the order through, and had...

Some advice please.... I've ordered a C63 and have received an email telling me my car has arrived. Great I thought. Being the weekend they said I can pick it up Monday. Feeling quite excited I thought I'd drive past and see if I can catch a glimpse. I did, and saw it in all its beauty...

Hi guys, New to the MB fraternity, just bought a 2012 C220 AMG Sport Plus. I bought the Becker Map Pilot, but for some reason whenever i try to enter any postcode in the UK as soon as I get past 3 digits a list of suggestions appear and i have to choose from one of them, is there no way I...

Where to start? I have owned my W202 220Cdi for 10 happy years, but as I was considering enforced early retirement I thought that something more economical might be a good idea for the future. So I decided on an Audi A1 1.6 Diesel Sport and bought a new one. Well, 2000 miles later and I just...

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...

My Blaupunkt Paris RCM 127 displays "WRONG KC" when I insert the Key Card after I collected it from a bodyshop where it had gone for repairs. The vehicle was in the bodyshop for a month. Mercedes wants to charge one hour labour to recode the card. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Chaos As Pensioner Drives Wrong Way On Motorway

Folks When I go into Google on Mozilla Firefox and try to go to MBclub on my laptop I am getting re-directed to random sites (not naughty) predominantly ebay. The same is true for other searches. Any clues what I need to do? MS Security Essentials says no issues found.

Possibly my eyesight or knowledge base is deficient but if not there is definately something wrong with this picture.
