    W124 Remote locking key fob

    The remote-locking key fob for my W124 (E280 estate, 1995) has stopped working. I tried replacing the batteries but to no avail. Do I need to get a new key from Mercedes? = or are there other possible - and cheaper - remedies?

    Changes to fuel / E10

    Changing from W124 K-reg estate to C-class

    My 1993 K-reg W124 220TE estate now has 204k miles on the clock, authentic rust bubble on the front wing and a collection of minor scratches and small car-park dents on the bodywork. Oh, and the automatic gear box is starting to be a bit awkward (takes a long time to change up to 4th; and change...
