Grrr.
If diesel with FAP system (fnarr) then it'll need the additive topping up. ...an engine management light and the message "depollution system faulty."
Grrr.
My theory, as a not even remotely competent spannerer of automobiles is that it's burning a bit of oil, and it's f
ked the cat.I'll be calling the vendor in a few moments, expecting nothing but a cold shoulder, but hoping for the best.

Help!
I want to get hold of this small trim piece (the black plastic on the left), but for the passenger side (and any fitting) for the 190.
I have tried searching, but have no idea what it is called or part numbers. So annoying!
I’m sure R129 will be along in a moment with the exact details, but in the meantime, the equivalent part on SL1 answers to ‘Pasquale’.I want to get hold of this small trim piece (the black plastic on the left), but for the passenger side (and any fitting) for the 190.

More seriously though, I’d buy an ice hockey puck, and with Saw/Sandpaper & a bit of UHU glue, you could knock up a convincing enough example (unless you’re of the CdG school of hammer mastery) for a couple of quid and a half hour of your time. (Of course, MB being what they are, it’s probably in a bin in Germany somewhere & can get to your local dealer by Wednesday week, all for the grand sum of £3.72+vat).

kered bottom end (Knocked like a tt) with some junkyard reject that used 1 litre of oil every 500 miles - totally stuffed both the cats up and it failed the MOT on emissionsIssue resolved by reoming cats - preparing a bucket of hot water and persil washing powder - cats went in that for about 30 mins removed - rinsed allowed to dry before refitting
MOT pass
I broke the car up for parts the following year but that wasn't because it failed the emissions again it was rotten!!!

Literally just above your post Unfortunately we don't have M-ways and planning permission is required to build them (apparently they are quite expensive and our club subscriptions are very low to encourage younger members to join)
We also don't have many decent tunnels either - best we have a short underpasses mostly for foot traffic, horses or deer and they aren't much good for driving thro
However we do have some lovely B roads that are lots of fun and rarely monitored
