Hi,

I'm a new member to this forum, so please forgive me if my question sounds really silly.

I have recently bought S-class 320CDI ( Sept 04) plate, although it is a second hand car which had two previous owners before me, it has done about 72K on the clock.

However just recently I had some work done on it:

• Service B
• Change all four Brake Disc, pads,sensor
• Fault appeared known as EPC visit work shop error that appeared on the dsiplay screen

Even though I paid in total 975 pounds for the whole work after driving the car for a weeks the EPC error has appeared again. When it was looked at they could not find any faulty and it was suggested that I might have fuel petrol instead of diesel.....which was nonsense, then they came out with another suggestion to use cetain petrol station, as some station may use diesel that could cause the fault to appear....anyway I wasn't too convince with answer....and I don't want to take my car back to the same mechanic...I fear that he will charge me alot for just looking at it.

The Garage is not a Dealer but specialist in German cars....but I feel that they know that my knowledge on mercedes is very limited and over charge me.....bascially before the major work my right beam bulb had gone....I had to pay 30 pounds to get it replaced and now the left bulb has gone now!!

I live in Ilford East London, UK......please could some one recommend me a good/reliable mechanic that I can have this look at?

Apologise if this is a silly question!!

Your help will be most appreciated!!!

Regards

The dealer is always equipped to diagnose and is sometimes the lesser of evils.

If your indy mech does not have a high end scanner (preferably SDS) there are many codes they will not be able to read.

There is a UK MB forum where you might get responses concerning local mechs.
