Hi-my driver's side window (power) will not move. Luckily it's in the up position, but whenever I hit the switch to go down or up, I can quietly hear a motor type sound in the door, but nothing happens. I figure the fuse is ok otherwise I wouldn't hear anything. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Danny

Hello everyone! Recently I have been feeling a vibration right under the armrest in my 77 300D. It only happens on initial acceleration from a stop and no other time. I remember reading something when i was looking to buy about a driveshaft support or something? If this is the problem is it expensive to fix? should i stop driving the car until it is?

Thank you for your help.

i have the 2008 ml 320 cdi towed my trailer from Canada to Santa Barbara, on my way home coming through Petaluma my trailer acted strange after checking found the welds had broken, these are not the welds mentioned in the recall but the welds that attach the bar to the round tube, it could have been a bad scene. took it to MB in Santa Rosa they said that the warranty in Canada and the one in USA don't speak to each other so i may have to pay.they sent me to the welding shop they use to be checked by certified welder he said bad welds, and bad design but told that me he could not make it safe as MB would void the warranty,this was verified by dealer. so now i am waiting for the new hitch comes today Monday they hope. when it comes and an inspection shows that nothing as been changed what then should i do?? if i go with safety and have it welded and reinforced it will void my warranty, if i install the new hitch an accident could happen, this is just a heads up- SAFETY FIRST
Thanks for reading,

I recently purchased an 06 C230 and was searching for some info on using the integrated phone system. I was told that I needed a phone cradle or a "puck" in the center console which it does not have to gain access to the onboard phone system via a bluetooth adapter. Any help on what exactly I need and how much this costs?

They'll ride best and handle safer if you replace the old clapped out Bilstiens with new Bilstein HD shocks ~ these cars weight *so* much they need really heavy duty shocks .

The IP has a governor so you cannot overspeed the engine and kill it .

Believe me, I envy you. i wish i could run mine flat out. that was what poped into my head when i read your post. Today was the first day I actualy had possesion of my 77 300D and i took it up on the highway....just what I expected! The car just floats, im in love! Although, at around 75 it seemed like it needed to up shift but maybe its just me being new to diesels.

Wouldnt mind a C36 AMG but a nice 190e 2.3-2.5 would be cool also
but I usually go back to BMWs because they have a sportier design and offer more models with manual transmissions

smell? I never noticed that. I had a Z-3 and it was loads of fun for 1.5 people...lol and don't laugh have you seen the Kompressor??!! Personally I loved the Z-3, it was a well made although cheap interior car. I never got any smell out of it as it was mostly leather interior, with flimsy plastic in out of sight locations. It was expensive in regards to maintenance, but it outperformed a merc or most other cars
