Gave the C250 a service... - Palmer - 01-07-2012

Gave it a full service + all new brakes today. Its not like its been 21k miles since the last one LOL. All my work was carried out at my mates garage.

New front discs and pads
New rear discs and pads
Oil filter + change
Fuel filter + system prime
Cabin filter
Air filter
General fluid checks / tyre pressures etc

Turns out the brake fluids boiling temp was 152 degrees celcuis LOL. Quite low so it had to be syphoned off and new shizz put in.

State of the brakes:

Also found out what was causing my exhaust rattle, a rotten mount that has been cable tied. Getting the mounts next week so just cracked on a few more cable ties inbetween Smile

Also got to catch a glimpse at his new work vehicle. Land rover defender of course. Used to have a peugeot parnter but they are going into recovery as well now so need something that can tow a large weight.
