    Can a retrofitted factory option be linked to the car's VIN?

    I suppose it depends on how old the car is as to whether it makes any difference. In the day I'd have had a MKIII Cortina XL/GT/GXL/2000E ..... ;)

    C238/E400 rear brakes need replacing, which should i get, Mercedes parts or Brembo

    After 2 sets of failed pattern discs (due to discs "warping") many years ago supplied by an 'international brakes' :rolleyes: supplier, who were then not interested because they said I'd not fitted them correctly, I now only buy OE discs (whoever that OE might be) Cheaper & easier in the long run.

    C238/E400 rear brakes need replacing, which should i get, Mercedes parts or Brembo

    I understand that pads are generally harder these days due to the lack of asbestos in them. So the options are .... asbestosis or longer lasting discs. ;)

    Quietest & most comfortable tires for 2015 ML 250 4Matic

    don't try buying tyres from Costco then ;) .... they will have you believe that you do need to replace them all together. They would only sell me 4 on my R Class. MB say you do NOT need to.

    starter motor CL500 M273 also M272 engines

    the last starter I had to replace was that on my Smart Roadster. It was only a couple of bolts that held it in place but ...... it took my about 5 hours to reach thebl00dy things!!!!!!!! I went with a new one form MB despite its cost .... I didn't want to have to repeat the job using a 2nd hand...

    Interesting cars seen on the road.

    I was once lent a standard 827 Rover as a courtesy car. It needed a football field & a bit to do a U turn and talk about understeer! :eek:

    Window tints - retrofit factory glass?

    I'd say it'd depend on who's fitting it. If you're dong it yourself, then it'd be fairly affordable but ..... if you're paying a garage a little less affordable. If paying a dealer ... forget it! ;)
