E class coupe 350 Bluetec c207

Genuine MB wheels ( I am fortunate to have both 19” & 18” sets and the issue is same with either). I fitted both arms with the car on ramps and jacked the hub in question up until the car just lifted to ‘pre-load’ as you describe. Test drove the car again today only @50+mph when the wheel is...

Hi all, With an imminent MOT looming and knowing that one of the ball joints was damaged on drivers side, I bought a replacement control arm (upper) and replaced said arm. Tapping noises and clunky steering much better. However, at approx 45-55mph on a sweeping long left bend the car develops a...

You the anti rattle clip on one of my front callipers was broken and the subsequent ticking and clunking noise drove me to despair! I’ve recently fixed it and to be honest, I don’t recall if the push in plate was actually relevant to the calliper’s function other than cosmetic finish? I painted...

I’m lounging around with Covid (no symptoms), so I thought I’d investigate the drivers side, front rattling, definitely only drivers side and a gentle touch on the brake stops it, whilst the pedal is depressed (like the owner!). Expected a track rod end or drop link etc, but nothing obvious...

‘Not enough wind this year’ speak for yourself

Actually I’m a builder!

I was a brain surgeon and research scientist and just before I retired, I found a simple method of reversing the ageing process, returning vitality and vigour to men and women alike, strangely though, whilst I now have the energy and looks I had in my thirties, I can’t be ars*d to share it...

350 MBCONNECT - ECALL EUROPE EMERG. CALL SYS. GEN. 2 (high end toy ?) Whilst I can’t make any useful comment on your original enquiry regarding the nav system, I can assure you that this little detail is far from a ‘high end toy’ from personal experience. It is a simple concept but has huge...

Gripes, I’m embarrassed for a builder I don’t know… Has there been a tsunami?

True Sterling, true…

Don’t cut yourself and could you share your lotto no’s please….?

Snap! Lock-down special price £65 each. Pleased with overall appearance lift.

About 4-5 years ago I had to research kit/suppliers/installers etc for a large insurance groups repair facilities (mostly large modern industrial units). At the time the average cost,if the charge point was reasonably close to the building, was around £10k installed. The limited incoming main...

This town ain’t big enough….

(Smart Arse!)

Hmmm, I drive a E350d coupe (‘64 plate), the 9G auto is surprisingly frugal, but equally lots of fun when opportunities present... Blobcat is right though, Diesel engines are not the future! Just wish I’d seen an E400 when I was looking! Approx £18k for 30-40k miles euro6 old shape is my current...

Started the search for summer tyres, I’m lucky enough to have separate 19” rims for the warmer weather, 18’s for winter... Confusing how different online sites suggest different ‘standard’ widths!

What??? You got the wrong number?!;)

Wighty, mate, Santa is not wearing that on his head - trust me...
