    URGENT HELP PLEASE - pints of water in passenger well 211 E270 Estate

    Is that invisible and only detectable with a uv torch? If so that's an excellent idea.

    URGENT HELP PLEASE - pints of water in passenger well 211 E270 Estate

    That's awful, I feel for you. If the screen is a bonded one water ingress occurs when the resin breaks down. Would it be worth buying some Dow785 clear sanitary silicone sealant and running a light bead around the screen externally? If you do and this stops the water, you then know you need to...

    Engine oil

    I've replaced the engine oil, and the front and rear differential oils, and the transmission oil on my '63 with less than 2000 miles on the car and it all came out nasty-looking. Quite expensive at around £400 in fluids, but it keeps my mind at ease. You can't do any harm whatsover by keeping...

    Motorway lower speed limit trial

    All the Green Deal provided was long-term debt for home-owners and difficulty selling their homes with a secured debt on the property. It did generate lots of taxable income for the government though............... I thought the Nazis lost the war? Sorry, I read the gov.uk report referenced...

    Urgent ideas please

    Wow, what a heap of **** that was. Glad it’s sorted. Probably ‘been overtightened by a gorilla who used his leg on a wheel brace and then they’d rusted in situ. Good to see your wheels survived with minor injuries.

    Electric cars

    Great info regarding the pittance it actually costs to run, against the panic of range remaining and not so available suitable charge points. I’m currently looking for a hybrid myself as a commuter option as I don’t currently have the confidence to jump in to full electric as of yet. Thanks for...

    Instaramic Ceramic spray

    Sorry I don’t have a YouTube account. Other than this forum I’m a bit of a mystery. No fb, no tweeter, no instant gram etc. I tend to avoid anything google really. Too many targeted ads and site recommendations whilst browsing. The constant security verification with as much personal info and...

    Instaramic Ceramic spray

    That’s exactly what I thought but shelled out a whopping £20 for some rated very highly on amazon and I’m very impressed. Is there a way to upload a vid of me not washing the car but only rinsing it with a jet washer for a spotless shine? (I live rural so it’s constantly getting covered in straw...

    AMG MCT Paddles in Comfort Mode

    In s+ the traction control remains functional. In the individual settings you can turn the ESP off and enjoy more wheel spinning freedom.

    Instaramic Ceramic spray

    Ceramic coatings are mint. I prepared my own car with bleeding iron, Polar blast, Polar wash, clay bar, and then I applied the 9H ceramic coating. It took two full days and heaps of rigorous but kind wrist action :p Well worth the prep, the shine is unreal and the dirt really does just rinse off.

    Individual setting for me, esp off, engine/shockers/transmission in brutal setting :D As jack black would say “it’s the only hway”

    Wow service quote!

    ;) I wouldn’t say I was privileged in any sense. I grew up in social housing/council estates and have never received any inheritance. I’m far too proud to accept a hand-out but yes I’m self-employed (since I was 26) and to say ‘I put the hours in’ would be an understatement. It’s normal for me...

    Wow service quote!

    I am still thirties yeah, 10 bikes too I just love cars I guess, all different kinds of all ages. I’m still not bored of constantly losing money to someone else’s benefit:geek: Whilst they keep making them I’ll keep buying them! Wife blames my adhd and bipolar and says I should stay of the...

    Wow service quote!

    Of course not in all cases as some garages must be good to be so successful, and yeah there will be far better cars than mine out there for a joy ride. One bitten twice shy though. My 350Z had over 9miles put on it by the time I went to collect, this was before the days of readily available...

    ML Tailgate problems : it keeps opening :-(

    Does anyone have a suggestion to a tailgate issue please? When closing the boot (using any method), the lid lowers and before closing completely and engaging the lock, it comes back up a little as though it has hit a bump-stop/obstruction, and then stops in that mid-way position. This happens...

    E63 Bi Turbo Service plan

    Decent price. I'd struggle to trust others with my pride and joy though. Also, the thought of someone else washing my car and out of sight makes me feel sick. I always speak to the manager and get reassurance my car won't be touched. Sounds precious, but one silly little ****** washed my alloy...
