w211

I've just replaced the front discs on my S211 with Pagid ones from ECP (great price & service btw, thanks!). One of the discs came off with no problem, but the other was firmly stuck to the hub. Most of the internet seemed to be advocating the use of successively larger hammers to remove it...

I have an S211 with phone pre-wiring, and use a Viseeo MB-2 Bluetooth unit in the UHI connector in the top of the centre console. As the MB-2 very rarely needs any form of human interaction, this seems like a waste of premium storage space in the console. It seems like a good idea to remove...

Hi all Attached is a photo of the Nokia fitting which came with my Dec 05 E280 CDI Avantgarde. I'd like to adapt it to work with my iPhone 4 via bluetooth but I don't think the fitting is the UHI one, for which the Viseeo MB-2 would be the adaptor. Have tried searching but can't find the...

hi all, I have the dreaded message! I have had the front discs and pads done ( needed changing anyway) rears are fine, fluid also fine. Think it might be the SBC unit as it no longer primes when I open the door only when I touch the brake pedal. Read some threads on brake switch behind...

Folks, firstly, apologies for probably repeating something that has been asked before! My E320 CDI (W211) is telling me Im just a few hundred miles from a Service C. So I've been ringing round different local MB dealers to get a price. So far I've yet to get a definitive list of whats...
