Video tutorial

To replace the headlight bulb on a Mercedes-Benz C-Class, open the hood of the vehicle and locate the back of the corresponding headlight. Remove the plastic protective cover located behind the light assembly to access the bulb.

Then disconnect the electrical connector attached to the bulb and unclip the metal clip that holds it in place. Carefully extract the burned-out bulb without damaging the housing.

Insert the new bulb in the same orientation, reattach the retaining clip, and reconnect the electrical connector. Replace the protective cover on the back of the headlight and close the hood.

Turn on the headlights to verify that the new bulb is working correctly.

AdBlue Tank Fault on Peugeot 2008

If the instrument cluster of your Peugeot 2008 sends an alarming signal as seen in the video, despite having just filled the AdBlue tank, the problem is not that the tank needs replacing - as authorised workshops simplistically suggest - at a cost of around £1,000. The first thing to do is to remember not to wait for the system to remind you that you are low on AdBlue, but to refill it every 5,000 to 6,000 miles, as the fault lies in the measurement of the tank level. Another good practice is to add an additive (yes, an additive in the additive) such as Tunap 988 (£23.99 on Amazon, with free delivery) which will prevent the AdBlue from crystallising.
