I dropped my car off at an auto body shop for a minor repair.
When I picked up the car I noticed the knob that adjusts the clock was mysteriously broken off. I found the knob, but it does not look like it can be glued back on.
Do I have to replace the entire cluster? Can the knob be replaced from behind the cluster?

Hello,
I'm getting a clunking noise in the front end when I go over bumps. I poked around underneath and couldn't find any play or wear anywhere, so I took it to a local shop. The mech said I've got a bad sway bar bushing, and it's "impossible" to get at. He also said it's not worth fixing since it's not dangerous as is. Is he right? Anyone else have a similar problem with this bushing? I'm considering going to another shop for a second opinion, since this could be a safety issue.
Thanks!
I removed my voltage regulator and when I took it out it looked like the attached image. Basically one brush at an angle and touching the other brush. I just put the new one it but after screwing the new one in I'm a bit confused as to how the old one got the one bent brush. Any ideas? Was it just a cheap part? There was no brand on it at all.
I guess this might get removed but images make it so much easier to show what is going on.

n/a All wipers have quite working. New wiper motor on rear hatch, new relay, and horn does not work. Horn is on the same circuit and fuses were good but I replaced the wiper/horn fuse any way. Rear wiper quite working first, then windshield wipers began failing intermittently and now are completely non functional. Ground issue?
After replacing wiper relay and wiper /horn fuse and checking for operation system did not function, then after setting overnight and starting in the morning wipers and horn worked, and have worked ever since. Is there a reset function happening here?
MY 1983 Mercedes 300CD TurboDiesel AC produces no air flow at the vent. I have rebuilt the motor, new brushes and it works beautifully. I tried reversing the wiring at the plug under the dash and that produced less pressure. I measured the flow by taking the motor fan out of its housing and turning in on and it is still fine and produces a good
fan noise when in the housing.
Next I checked all the vents and only the center vent needed a connection. Now they all work and work correctly according to the the CC control sequence. All tested well.
Still no flow at the vent only a whisper of air.

I'm having difficult removing cracked footrest. Footrest is connected to plastic kickplate with 2 plastic rivets. Kickplate seems attached to car body with a clip on the inside. I cannot remove kickplate no matter which way I pull it. Also, do I destructively remove the 2 plastic rivets holding the footrest? Do you sell new rivets? Thanks for your help.
Found a disconnected blue wire near my battery. Can't figure out what it goes to. The previous owners installed an aftermarket radio so I'm wondering if it is from that or if this wire was disconnected from somewhere else. I'm having difficulty tracing it to figure where it is going. Any help is much appreciated. The wire comes through the firewall into the area near the battery and is blue.
