I know that my E350 has a broken/cracked reluctor ring, which means the ABS, cruise control and traction control are not working; but neither is the power steering. Is this a consequence of the same fault - ie: connected?
The tailgate on my E350 has started not to latch nor lift/lower the load cover correctly. The 'lower' button on the base of the tailgate is inoperative until the car has been driven some distance - even with the battery on overnight charge. When lifting the tailgate with the remote control, the...
Firstly, please excuse my ignorance. The E350 has both the offside dip and main beam lights out. Seems a bit odd that both should fail. Can anyone tell me where to start looking? Are they both the one bulb?
Some time ago I reported that my windscreen wipers had defaulted to intermittant when set to 'automatic' and similarly, the headlights had defaulted to on when also set to automatic. The windscreen sensor and ribbon cable were replaced, to no effect. Now, things have gone a stage further: the...
Does anyone have (or know where to find) clear instructions for how to remove the windscreen sensor cover, rear view mirror and overhead control panel on a W211? I have the Ha*nes manual but it's short and not at all clear.
Strange things happening to the tailgate on my E350 estate.

This is a problem I reported a while ago and I thought had been resolved.
Since then, the windscreen was replaced by Autoglass last October, after which strange things started to happen again. Firstly, after a couple of months the wipers defaulted to plain intermittant operation when set to...
In looking at the under-bonnet pollen filter on my S211, I notice that the cover above it doesn't fit properly (clips in the wrong place, etc.) and I think it may be from a different variant. Is anyone able to offer a part number for the correct component?
When the weather's cold, my E350 shows the large red battery light on start-up. I use a smart trickle charger but that seems to make no difference. The car starts and runs OK although when this happens some things (seat heaters, rear screen heater, tailgate motor, etc.) don't work for the first...
