    Mercedes Windscreen chip

    Insist on genuine mercedes Glass, as the car is under 3 years old they will do this at no extra cost. I have mine booked in next week for a genuine windscreen, but as mine is 4 years old its costing me £480 for a genuine screen.

    12v Auxiliary Socket permanently live?

    Ive been looking into ignition controlled power sources (opp of what you are on abt), the cigarette socket is indeed something that switches off after a short time, else you have the risk of running the battery down.

    Locking wheel nut removal

    Had a puncture so had a tyre changed at F1, chain a bit like kwikfit, had no choice. anyhow they must have held a air gun to tighten the hell out of it, when my local refurb place tried to break the locking nut loose, same thing happened, innards shredded, he did want me there was a chance of it...

    AMG pedal covers part no. Help

    pedal fit is same on auto's, some of the accellerator pedals were different on the SL's but that's it. Manuals will have a different set. a lot of the aftermarket ones are cheap for a set and similar quality and exact look, under a tenner, dealers used to be same until they got greedy!

    Broken lock nut key

    F1 autos massively overtightened mine and it snapped, had to get a specialist to weld and remove damaging cosmetically one of the wheels... wasn't happy! MB will have a master set and the parts dept can order a new key for £10 if they aren't hammered on tight
