Tier 1 Warranty Decision

I have MB Tier 1 Extended Warranty on my five year old W169 A Class.It's due for possible renewal in a couple of weeks and I am going through the usual maybe/maybe not agonies of decision.

I understand most of the what's included/what's not included stuff - except 'clutch facings', which are not included. What does this mean? If I need a new clutch do I get one - or at least part of one?

Any views from the more technically knowledgeable among you gratefully received.

CETANE AND 2 T OIL.

Hi Everyone, Not been on the club site for a while but thought i would put some info on about my fuel additive.
I mix 160 ml of pure cetane, (which i paid £50 for 5 litres), with 65 ml of std mineral 2 t oil.

Why ? Engine runs smoother, have carried out before and after tests etc.
MPG up 70 more miles on a 18 gallon tank.
Fuel pump, injectors and valves etc good lubrication, pump diesel has nothing in it, a family friend works at the shell delivery station in Essex and he says it is a bit hit and miss, depends how buisy they are and some times nothing goes in, how would you know. lol.

So i buy ASDA diesel, cheapest around and add my own magic liquid, i know it works and i know it is in there.
What do you think ? Herbiemercman.

Are there straight swop quad pipe rear boxes available for W211 eclass?
I've got a sport with the twin outlets, but considering a different rear box for maybe a little more sporty sound, and/or quad pipes?

s211 e320 cdi 2003 P0256

I've been out in the car today and she ONLY appears to Misfire at 3,800rpm and in COMFORT mode with WOT foot to the floor??

I had a previous Fault code of P0256, but only after changing the fuel filter as i suspected the issue may have been dirty fuel. After i cleared the code and gave the car a run this code has not reapeared so i put that down to a air lock in the filter.

She's perfect in Sports mode, when the misfire accours the engine definitely stops accelerating then she pick up and runs fine. Really confusing??

Its only ever at WOT and in Comfort mode at 3,800rpm

This makes me think its ever Fuel starvation or Boost cut or even electric plate in the box? No fault codes despite it doing it several times or limp mode.

She's going into my local indie tomorrow so hopefully will have some answears, just wondering if anyone here as any ideas as to what the issue maybe:confused:

Good evening one and all, just joined the forum and thought best to say hi first.
I have recently bought a C180 saloon on an 07 plate, so will be looking for guidance, help and advice going forward given this is my first dalliance into the world of MB after 30 years of motoring.
Is there any decent indies in the west Lothian area?
And where do the meets happen up in Scotland anyone know?
Cheers!

Engine cover removal CLS 55?

How simple/difficult is it to remove the engine cover and air boxes from a CLS 55? Also the two bits that have AMG machined into them wither side of the SC? (I think they are the valve covers :dk:)

Reason being I was thinking of giving them a makeover, possibly hydrodipping the plastic covers (carbon, black or lambo orange) and spraying what I think are the valve covers black.

Instructions??

[Spares] C180 Estate 1998 LPG kit

I have a full LPG kit ,recently removed from 1998 C180 estate ,no paperwork but photos taken at every stage of removal . The lpg running was perfect before the timing chain snapped :mad: .

every part has been removed so would fit straight back into an estate with nothing to purchase apart from a pipe coupling ! .

A full tank returned 230 miles at an average refill cost of £21 ,starting directly on LPG the car never faulted once .

The tank still has @1/3rd left in so this will need to be a collection only from the Merseyside area .
£240 OVNO.

Has anyone installed led fog light bulbs?

If so, do yours like mine sometimes go out for a few seconds and then come back on along with the 'bulb out' warning on the dash?

I have tried 50w6rj resistors but they didn't help. I exchanged the bulbs as I thought the problem was with them but the problem continues.

Thanks

Anyone tried taxing a car recently

Its now a nightmare and in my case not possible due to new "Beta" software.
It used to be so easy as well.
Basically if you don't receive a reminder letter with the 16 digit code you are stuffed do not pass go do not collect £200.
Used to be an option to enter reg and V5C Doc Ref No but that is no longer available.
Tried lying and said that I had just bought the car but that did not work either.
Sent feedback to DVLA but not sure that will do anything.
Try using this as an excuse to police when pulled over for not having valid tax
