mine and she doesn't know what to do...
WHILE AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, VEHICLE WILL OCCASIONALLY SHUT OFF. IT

Problem:
My S 500  brakes makes a high noise, like womans scream (terrible), but only
when I?m reversing and use the break..when driving ahead and brakes...no
unusual noise. What would that noise be? Anyone?

Can anyone tell me where I could find an adapter to hook up a phone to the
Mercedes internal antenna connector in the console.
I just need to hook up my Nokia phone which has some kind of mini rca type
connector to the mini-uhf connector in the car.

I just bought an 89 MB 560SL. It's in great shape but the engine has a
bit of trouble for about a minute after I start it. It idles a bit
slower than it should, sort of ready to stall. If I touch the gas
pedal, it stalls right away. If I wait about 30 seconds to a minute, I

Apparantly, it has been a record year for ultra-luxury cars, including the
Maybach. They're completely sold out for this year, and already selling into
next year as well.

Can anyone tell me why they have two vaccum tubes going to the ignition
switch on the 207D?
I imagine that a lot of models would also have this idea.........but why?
I've never known vaccum to go to an igntion switch, its new to me!

My C180 97 broke down as running out of fuel. Having refilled the tank, I
could not start the engine. Battery is fully charged, starter motor cranks
but just won't start up.  The car was running quite well before.
Please help to get it starts again.

Hi there everybody,
this 2000 kg beast is a fine car, but it has the problem that every time I
drive at speeds between 120 kph and 140 kph the car starts to rattle and
shake. The shaking is pretty severe, not only in the steering wheel, but you

I purchased a new hood badge for me 1982 380SL.
The problem is I can't figure out how to remove the old one or put on
the new one.
The little space to work in don't give much room at all to work in and

The power steering went out today on my '97 E320.  It's like  driving a
timber wagon!!  There is a flood of fluid on my garage floor.  Can I drive
it seven miles to the repair shop without doing further damage?

Just a general question for the group.....We bought a 2000 E 320 4
matic for my wife to replace a 12 year old Audi 90Q which was a
wonderful car.....My wife was not impressed with the A6....for some
reason...but I didnt argue...its her car.

AVOID HILTON HEAD SC !!!!!! Them klever ole kounty mounties passes out a whole
lot of green stamps (speeding tickets if you prefer to call them that) to dumb
tourists driving over their cross island toll road. The way it is designed is
to entice you to drive at the limit. But then ...

Seems unreal that you can't buy a shop manual for the 98 SLK (among
others).  Is this really true?  Basically forces one to go to MB or a
shop.  Isn't there some kind of a law that a car maker must make
repair info available for sale???

I'd like to buy a new cd/mp3 player to replace my MB (not Bose) radio/tape
player and I can find many nice players BUT no one has wiring harnesses,
connectors, etc for the Mercedes. Circuit City wouldn't even consider an
installation, saying that they have tried but end up causing ...
