Mercedes fixes diesel injector problems

Mercedes say that a new injector system for C Class and E Class diesels with the OM651 engine have now been fixed. So extensive was the problem that many owners were waiting months for their cars to be fixed as Mercedes struggled with a mounting pile of broken cars and injectors that were failing. Mercedes tell us that the problem was fixed with the release of new injectors later in 2010, but Cars UK readers have continued to complain about their cars needing multiple visits to dealers with injectors failing multiple times (that original story garnered more than 500 comments from disgruntled Mercedes owners).

Ford adds new Fiesta Style; drops Fiesta Studio price

Ford Fiesta - seeking buyers further down the range Yesterday we got a new Fiesta limited edition in the Sport Special Edition and today we see Ford tweaking the bottom end of the Fiesta range to get more footfall in its showrooms.

Oh, and 15″ wheels with covers (perhaps that’s not such a big selling point).

Peugeot 308 facelift (2011) first official pictures

It's facelift time for the Peugeot 308.

Although this is a minor facelift, the 308 is easily spotted by its new-era Peugeot look.
