    CD changer (2005 C180K Coupe)

    Gentlemen, Apologies if this has been covered before, however I couldn't find any specifics on a search. As above, I have a 2005 C180K Coupe with the Audio 20 head unit. Being of a certain age, I'm past modding cars and fitting massive stereos. I've had this vehicle for a few months now after...

    Another Fifer!

    Thanks all for your welcome. Re, the engine, I'm aware that about 3 or 4 years (and only 3000 miles ago), it had major top end surgery to replace the sprockets on the camshaft (?) with "upgraded", toughened steel ones at a ridiculous cost. That should, hopefully help avoid issues going...

He does about 1k miles per year and is close to retirement, so made sense to change my Audi for the MB. Decided to put it in for an early MOT to make...

    W204 2008 rear subframe failure!

    New member and first time MB owner. Recently purchased a 2005 C180K coupe from a friend, no reason to believe there would be any issues. Put it in for an early mot to make sure all was well - rear subframe rotten next to the petrol tank. Bizarrely, the rest of the underside is great, it's...
