Foot brake gave up the ghost on e320cdi, ho hum garage, big bill, nuisance, all went through my head so had little to do Sunday morning, got 6 year old son to undo cover under steering wheel, (my head doesn't like upside down) gave him torch pointed in direction of footbrake he comes back with broken spring off pawl, couldn't get him too put one back, so used mirror pointy pliers blimey it works! had too give him chocolate muffin for his labours and yes he put the cover back, he has also helped with changing wheel after puncture question is,is he any better or worse than local dealers, he has the edge on price I think on the muffin scale he is at 1 and they are at about 230 mind you his overheads are lower should I carry on with expensive school or advertise as Mercedes specialist.
