Hi, My car has suddenly started to make this very strange, and quite loud whining/air leak sound when accelerating hard. Does anyone have any idea what it could be? My mechanic test drove it for just 1 minute and said my turbo is beginning to fail even though earlier, he said it was just a...

So. Got the offside door mirror assembly off to service the noisy power folding motor. Cannot remove the glass to get to the internal gubbins. Everything on YouTube and internet discussions I can find shows how to remove the pre-facelift glass with the metal clip running along one edge. Pics of...

What do you call this part and is it easy to get hold of (see picture)? The picture shows the one on the rear brake, but I need a replacement for the offside on the front brake. The part on my car has lost its springiness, so it doesn't do what it is supposed to do. As a result, the front pad...

Hi, I picked up a used 2013 E class E300DE 1 week ago about 100 miles away from my home. When I Test drove it and the hybrid side of things felt fine, the battery on the dashboard is charging it would cut to electric at 0-20MPG, or when I stop at traffic lights it would change and pull to...

Hi all, E class is in the Mercedes dealer on Wednesday after a trip to Birmingham (2 hours) for the first time in 15 months! Car was awful to drive, whole car vibrated quite harsh at 70mph +. Seems to do it at 40 mph and close to double that speed if you know what I mean. But it doesn't seem...

Afternoon all, Thought id' sign up again after some time away, (not in prison) to tell of my 2001, W210, rust adventure. I bought the car in 2018 with 54500 miles, looking as new, having been garaged and with minimal rust. By Jan this year the rust was spreading despite being treated with rust...

Hi all, Hope everyones doing well. I am planning on purchasing a Mercedes E Class 2016 Saloon SE. The SE that I have found is a really nice spec with Pan roof and the single 12.3 inch screen for a reasonable price. However, the only thing that is concerning me is the fact that the exterior...

Hi all In a previous thread; I hit a pothole 4 weeks back and a second garage has confirmed that there is a crack in my NSR alloy. Situation is that I would most like have to replace both alloy and tyre (garage saying this if impact has caused alloy to crack, can’t see damage easily within...

Hi all, Drove to Bristol today ( 380 mile round trip ) and I've noticed a severe judder of the steering wheel under braking. Googling the problem has opened my eyes. I've seen that a large majority of W213 owners are suffering from this problem. Car is just 4 months out-of-warranty. Only 34k...

Hi all, Picked up a second hand E class estate couple of months back (W213, estate, 220D, Reg: Sep 16) and have noticed that the passenger puddle light isn’t working. All lights on the door are still working ie bottom of door, ambient lighting, indicator light etc. Drivers side puddle light...

Hi everybody! Hopefully somebody can give me some good ideas what to do here; I'm purchasing a car and parented by a mechanic a Mercedes is the only option. Things narrowed to a diesel E class 2009. to 2014. I have literally seen every single one of the E classes in a 0 to 6500 pounds price...

I have an E220 amg sport (c207) I was putting my roof bars on today and accidentally caught one of the covers that cover up the mounting points, snapping the corner. Is it possible to get replacement covers? If so, does anyone know how much they would be, and how easy/hard are they to fit? Ian

The Garmin sat nav in my E220D works well for me overall however I’ve noticed a glitch. When it is navigating and you’ve just completed a manoeuvre, eg turning or leaving a junction, it then says continue for 3 miles irrespective of how far to the next turn/junction. It’s always 3 miles...

Having recently had a slow leak necessitating the replacement of a rear air spring on my car (and finding it an incredibly easy job, it's described elsewhere but with two people you don't even need to remove the shock top mount making it a 15 minute job) I found some springs at just over £60...
