The speedohmeter works however the mileage is not moving. It was because
where I purchased I saw where he had the car inspected 1 week earlier and
there was less miles on the car and there was a problem with the alternator
the dealer told me and he replaced. Can someone help me wiyh ...

I do need an alternator, (thanks for the diagnosis Tiger).  Anything
special about changing one out?  Is the whole job done from the top? (1996)

can anyone tell me how to gain access to the bulb that lights the
selector panel below the auto select lever - it has never worked since
I bought the car secondhand, but I cannot see any obvious way of
getting to it, and don't want to force any panels until I know which

I am considering buying a used MB, with less than 50K miles on it.
My budget: under $25,000, ideally a 4 door sedan.
Right now I am considering a 2004 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C230
Kompressor with 45,000 miles on it.

I'm seriously considering purchasing a 1988 190E (the early design) with
auto transmission. It doesn't have switchable modes i.e. sport/economy. What
change up points does this earlier model have? Are they the same as the

I have lost the only key I have to my 1984 500SEL Grey Market.

La macchina ha solo 3 anni.

I have a '99 E320 4matic Sta Wag with about 90,000 miles.  I am
thinking it is about time to have the exhaust system worked on.  Is
there a better setup than the 2 catalytic converters on each side that
goes into  one muffler and one resonator?  It seems this would have to

The AC in my 1982 300 TDT has a fairly fast leak.  If I get it filled
it will leak out in a few days, which is too big a leak to seal with
refrigerant additives.  I have had about 3 charges leak out and they
all had dye in them.  I have a small UV light and the yellow goggles,

Whats the proper way to bleed the coolant lines for an 84 300SD. I have
just acquired an 84 300 SD and have put in a new thermostat. I turn the
car off when the temperature gauge is just shy of the mark between the
80C and 120C (I assume this is 100C). There is also no heat out ...

I would like to know your two cents worth as to the best year/version

home.  Thanks!

I'm currently on a road trip with my '82 300CD-T, and I'm having
problems with it running hot. It's not overheating, but only because
