Hello dear members. I am extremely worried for the following issue. Light white smoke is coming out of my exhaust. I noticed it a couple of days ago. I have also checked cooling fluid, oil filler cap and spark plugs for signs of head gasket failure but seems NOT to be a head gasket (as can be...

Hello, I’m new to car forums. But I thought this would be worth a try before I take a trip to the local Mercedes garage. I recently bought my A250 2015 22.000+ miles on the clock. I had the B5 service done but it seems they never reset it, so wondered if anyone knew a way I’d be able to turn...

Hi all, W212 Facelift 2.0 E250 SE, 2013, 45k For a week I've noticed a strong smell of petrol with a cold-start (first thing in the morning). The smell is coming from the engine bay. If I'm inside the cabin with the heater fan off, I can't smell the petrol, if the heater fan is on, I can...

Hi guys, Just about to buy this car from a dealer. It's done 40k miles and is a 2014. Wondering what any owners on here think of the car and what the fuel consumption is like. I'm coming off a BMW 120d for this as my family has gotten bigger and we all can't fit easily (even though I still...

Hi All. Newbie on here :) I have a 2006 CLK 200 petrol convertible and it's developed a fuel problem. Despite having half a tank of fuel remaining I am "running out of fuel". The gauge is correct - it shows half a tank - and if I fill up it will only take half a tank's worth of fuel...

Just a quick hello. I bought my second ever Merc a month ago and am once again in love. A C200 kompressor estate w203 automatic with 74000 miles. I think I got her for a good price so the few niggles are a small price to pay. And I'm feeling particularly smug at the minute having repaired...
