w211

Hi everyone, I'm Jonas and driving an S211 E220 CDI (2006) and just read my Fault Codes. I got 4 stored in the ECM. Since they are all historic can I just delete them and check if they come back? I recently replaced my V-ribbed belt because it was cracked - could that be where the errors are...

Hi guys. I have a 2004 E320 (W211) with 151,000 miles on the clock. When I start off from cold there is a vibration through the floor of the car. It goes away somewhat when the car warms up but not totally. I suspected that the engine mounts need replacing but my mechanic says there is no...

Hi Folks, I've got a new diesel filter to go on my E270 - is it essential that I prime it with fuel before starting the car? Thanks in advance!

Hey. I got a W211 OM642 engine. I changed turbo once because it was dragging oil into exhaust, brand new turbo. After change i have to fill oil every 5-6 days. I have changed the crank ventilation, and this cover behind, and still no changes. It Smokes much. Looks like i create a fog behind me...

Hi guys. I know, you´ve seen this kind of posts a million times, but this is not the usual EGR / injectors / swirl flaps case. Please, if you know a bit about these engines, read through. I did a fair bit of google research, searched through this and other forums, but I haven´t found anyone...

Hi Folks, The last few days I’ve been getting the red workshop battery warning on my dash. Some Googling suggests it could be the Aux battery. The car is a 2005 E270. I understand that the main battery should be disconnected before the Aux. Can anyone confirm this? Also, where do I find the...

Hi I’m wondering if anyone can help me in the way of a brabus tuning box for a w211 e320cdi sport and if it’s worth getting I just want a decent bit of power to have some fun, I’m from Southampton but can travel

Have a 2006 W211 saloon car, brake lights on both side as at the rear are not working - the backup lights are coming on instead, I've replaced both bulb holder units and bulbs for new and still no change... The High level boot light works ok.... At one point the drivers side brake light was...

Please can other owners advise... My 15-year-old W211 estate is showing it's age in body and, more importantly and potentially costly, in the rear air-suspension department... My mechanic in Macclesfield (Cheshire) advises me that the so-called 'air bag' units that are used instead of...

I've seen a few posts on the difficulty of securing the disk to unscrew the top mount and referring to a special MB tool. I've just done this using 2 hose clips to clamp the disk. In this instance I prevented it rotating with a small socket strategically placed

Anyone got any tips for this? 1. Removing the cover beneath the instrument panel. Besides removing three screws, is there anything else holding it in place? Is it just brute force needed to get it out from the heater assembly? 2. The manual says to remove heat shield and cross member under the...

2007 E320CDI v6 sport 124000 miles. Hello all, First I must thank this forum and all users for helping and sharing your knowledge, I have gained lots of knowledge here during the past years. Now my car drives fine except randomly loses power and gain power again without any input from me (no...

As above; the parking brake pedal won't stay in place and the release cable is loose. I've had a look and can see half of the pawl is still attached to the pedal and the rest is presumably behind the dashboard still attached to the cable. I've ordered a second hand pedal assembly but would...

Hi All My E class 2005 W211 is showing an ABS and ESP malfunction. It's been plugged in for diagnostics to no avail. I've tried changing the brake light switch (youtube recommend that can apparently fix it sometimes - it didn't). Needs an MOT soon so am anxious to be able to resolve the...

I have a 2004 car with 177k which exhibits what Kent of Mercedessource describes as 'Dead body in the trunk syndrome,' as well as occasionally hearing a wheel bounce a couple of times on lumpy bits of road. Thinking rear shocks would be a good idea but the car doesn't justify spending a...

Good Evening My car is a 2006 E280 (pre-facelift) The air conditioning was not cooling the car but there were no errors reported. The B12/2 pressure was 3 bar with the engine off and rose to 5 bars with the engine running at idle. I contacted the local Mercedes dealer who recharged the air...

Hi All, I bought an used W211 220d 2003 model recently. When i checked the fuse box in the trunk, the fuse 13 is broken and no fuses in ports 11 and 12. What would be the implications. When i googled, i found that 11 - Rear end control unit ( found that fuse no 7 is also Rear end control...

Have had the water in boot after heavy rain for a while now - as I had the day off today so had a look. The rubber along the 'weather trim' on both sides was perished with cracks in it and coming away on one side. there was a considerable amount of gunk under each side and moisture so suspect...

Hi Folks, Im looking to fit new rear discs and pads on my 2005 E270. I assume I can disable the brake assist thing by simply disconnecting the battery? Otherwise it all looks quite straightforward. Sorry for such a basic question! Thanks, Nik

Hey there fellow drivers, so recently I have ran to this issue. To explain it as clear as possible, problem is that when car is standby (idling, not driving), heater blows cold air no matter what position it is in. When driving the car, all heater functions work as expected, hot air blows, but...
