Hi,
Just bought a lovely 2003 (53 plate) w211 Avantgarde E320cdi estate. Really pleased with it- such a step forward from the w210 I had before.
It drives well with no issues really apart from needing a new thermostat.
However!
There is an intermittent clonk coming from the steering somewhere. I've had the car laser 4 wheel aligned and alls fine. The bushes seem fine and there are no noises other than when you turn from lock to lock. Anyone had any experience if this or got any suggestions?
I've done a lot of reading on here but my harmon kardon system won't go into the hidden engineering mode to make it play dvd's on the move....
The TV tuner won't find any stations at all. Is it analogue only or am I missing something?
Been looking for the 3.5mm jack in the glovebox but no success. I'm assuming that's in the roof of the glovebox or am I wrong?
My car seems to have a reversing camera fitted but no output on the screen. I'd dig out a blank yellow phono wire next to the sat nav in the boot. Any suggestions?
The footwell puddle lights aren't working anyone know the bulb spec? (My car didn't come with a handbook sorry!)
One last thing- my car is missing its engine under tray and also one half of its cover. Where would I get one from?
I guess in the long run I'll be after a tuning box or remap but the indicated 46 mpg over 300 miles on the run home seems good to me.
Cheers
Jon
