    Weird Tail light problem - a complete mystery

    I'm hoping for a miracle. My 2007 CLK Cabrio has a tail light problem. The lights all work, but they dance. For 10 seconds they are normal, then they flick to the backup mode, all bulbs replaced with Bosch bulbs. Inside, the error message has always been the same, even when the lights were fine...

    Tailgate on W211, 2007, E Class estate

    The powered locking mechanism of the tailgate sometimes fails, leaving it closed but unlocked. The red warning notice then appears on the dash. Opening the tailgate to the full extent and lowering it by hand sometimes clears the fault. Help please. Leon

    MB Service History

    Just said goodbye to my 2003 C220 CDI Coupe. Lovely car but a real rot-box. The good news is I traded it in for a 2007 C180 Kompressor Petrol version. This car only has 20,000 miles on it, looks and drives like it's brand new and has a full MB service history. I think the stealership...
