I have a w210 e320 cdi on a 51 plate . what mode are you supposed to drive in ? I was told to keep it in w mode as s mode uses more fuel ? So what is it ? W or S ? Also how long do the timing chains last as i do about 1000 miles a week commute . Also how long do the headlamps last as mine has the funny xenon ones and they dont seem to be as bright as they once was . The inner smaller headlamps look a different colour as well more yellowy where the large headlamps are more clear and sparkly .Why is this anyone ?

W or S , winter makes the gearbox move off in 2nd gear to help traction , i rarely if ever select W on my car i really cant see it helping economy very much

Timing chains go at least 150k miles

As for your smaller inner lamps, they are probably Halogens which look yellow compared to Xenons which are clear and sparkly.

Chains last 150k? do they give warning when they need replacing or do they just snap? I dont fancy having a engine explodenating on the M1 one morning
