Hi, Anyone experienced this wear issue?. My vehicle has only 43000km only. Dealership in sri lanka Dimo 800 said this is a wear and tear issue. Anyone experienced this pathetic issue? Repair is I have to replace the crankshaft since this crankshaft pulley connecting nut is worn and have damaged...

Hi, I have a c350e (2017), just out of warranty. The last two days I had suspension failure notifications pop and saying car too low. Yesterday was amber and I stopped and saw the rear end was low but once I got back in the car it then said “suspension rising” and then the notification went. The...

Hi fellow MBOs, I'm a 'newbie' here. Firstly let me say that I love my C250 ... I've done over 70k miles in a 5yo car, driving some long distance routes to Europe. It just eats the miles, made much easier with the Distronic Plus cruise control. Yesterday my Panoramic Sunroof jammed and I have...

Good evening all. I have had a CLK500 for the last year, it was CAT C'd back in 2008 and put straight back on the road with all the correct paperwork. MOT'd & serviced by an Indy Merc garage 3 months ago, currently 86k on the clock. Last week whilst in the outside lane of the M25 the brakes...

I had a recent failure of front seatbelt inertia release - requiring complete replacement (apparently). Naturally this happened just before MOT was due. Has anyone else had a seatbelt failure on a 5 year old, low mileage car? It seems to me to be unusual to happen so early in the life of...

Good evening all! After a recent bout of rain, the W204 has developed a problem with its front parking sensors, I assume one or more has gotten wet. Is this common? Is it usually the sensor(s) or could it be a loom connector fault? Is there anything i can do to the okay ones to seal them...

Hi all I have a 2005 E Class 220 Avantgarde Yesterday the key fob wouldn't talk to the car although the little red light seemed to be working... I tried the mechanical key out of the fob in the drivers side lock and the key turns well both ways but doesn't lock/unlock the vehicle. It...

I have a friend who was in an accident a couple of weeks ago. The engine is a OM612 mated to a 722.6 gearbox, he had a heart attack and drove into a wall. The engine was running, vehicle in Drive, with him incapacitated behind the wheel. We can assume his foot might have been on the...

Hi, I own a B170SE 5-door Auto CVT, Petrol. It recently started playing up when going uphill, like it's struggling to choose the correct gear and after a few hours of driving will report "Transmission failure - visit workshop" on the dashboard. Over time, it's become progressively worse and...

:confused: W124 300CE 1991 M103 I have no illumination behind instrument cluster (Speedo, Rev Counter etc), and all lights behind switches on center console including Heater controls, Dash switches, Gear selector and window controls. Also, the buzzer that reminds you that you left the...

Took my E220 for MoT, passed on everything except rear fog light! Bulb is good, fuse is good, and the indicator light on the switch in the cabin illuminates when switch is pulled out. But there is no current at the wire at the rear panel... (tested with multimeter). I realise there must be a...

For what its worth I spotted a CLS on the hard-shoulder of the M6 today with a n/s front wheel at 30deg (ish) to vertical apparently jammed in the front wing. I think it was a 55 plate reg. It looked like he had managed to get it to the side safely, but it could have been a real nasty one...

Hi. I know there have been other postings but can someone please point me in the right direction. C200 Elegance 1996. Firstly my petrol gauge went 'wonky' up...down...up and so on. I had battery issues (discharging) so had to recharge/ reconnect it a few times. New battery now fitted...

Hello. I have a 220E CDI, first registered in Jan 2003. Recently, I had a flat battery through inadvertently leaving the lights on! Anyway, I tried to use the emergency key to open the boot lock manually, so I could access the battery to take to Mercedes for replacement, only to discover...
