I am asking for my friend - who has a 2001 model Merc C220
The 4xCD player in the glove compartment is broken and he has been told
that the laser is unobtainable to repair it.
he has also been told that a replacement will be more than 400 euros

I need to replace the assisted door locking pump.  I know it is in the trunk
(left side).  But don't know how to get there, or what to do when replacing
it.  Any advice?   Thank you

Hi, I'm told that I can stop this if I look under the floorboard on
the passenger side and unplug the alarm from the amplifier.
I took up the rug, and I see a piece of plastic screwed on, and also a
long thin panel on the right.

YES, another servo problem.  I've got the servo nailed as being the
culprit.  My VOM reads 3 ohms in "park", 3 in hot, and 1485 in cold.
The motor will move (takes 5-10 secs for full travel) but heat/cold
control is erratic.  Now, George Murphy at Performance Analysis Co.

I'm based in the UK and currently looking at replacing my E320cdi(last
model) with either a new model E320cdi or possibly a second hand S320cdi.
I replaced my factory fit radio and CD juke box on the current car with
an Alpine head unit and juke box which are giving superb results ...

I replaced the (blown) head gasket and now the engine runs OK but smokes
like a Russian Army tank.
It was running perfectly before the gasket blew when I attempted to start
it. I would suspect a broken ring except the compression in the cylinder

I am hoping someone can answer a little question for me.
I have a w116 chassis 300sd, the tach worked very rarely, so
I found the little round screw-off thingy in the engine compartment
and un plugged the top portion, cleaned off the pins with 1500 grit

The beading on thetop of the  armrest of my 92 300E has split in severa
lplaces. One place in particular catches on my shirt & is starting to pull away
from the stitching.  Any recommendations for a suitable glue or other way to
fix this?

My 380 SL has an intermitent starter problem. Every second or third
morning it turns over very slowly as if the battery is low on charge,
once the engine starts and shuts down everything works fine. The car
has 170,000 miles, battery is new and the connections at the battery

anyone who knows how many horsepowers the 2.3 16v has

My '82 300SD has a newer radio but the antenna doesn't work. I'm
wondering if someone tried to rewire the antenna motor control to the
radio and maybe this doesn't work. Does the antenna motor have to
remain controlled by its original control switch to go up and down

Regarding different kinds of oil as fuel and as engine oil; no harm it seems
and surely other types of oils can also be used in the engine as lubricant.

Anyone has experience on coverting R-12 to R-134 on 300E?
Can I just buy conversion kit from Schucks and do it by my self?
I think all of my R-12 already gone.

I have an '82 300SD and my seat switch for the driver's seat back is
not working. I only need to set its position once and want to try just
manually putting the power across the connector contacts to set it
where I like it but I don't know what contact positions on the
