I have a 2005 SLK 350, Try to avoid the service from them & look elsewhere
for a new one. They are horrible since they changed from Glauser to
Sarasota. Mine has been in the shop over 35+ days for numerous problems,
each time they say it is fixed it is not & there are more ...

I have a 1969 250C destined for the scrap yard... it would be a shame as
there are great (and hard to find?) parts on it.  I live in the Vancouver BC
Canada area, if anyone would like to purchase as is.  Body has a lot of
rust, and is not in driving condition...

When I took my car to the dealer for the "faulty" Service A reminder, they
mentioned that my 2005MY S430 also needed to updates--for the comand module
and an audio gateway update.  What are these updates for?
Thanks in advance.

I found a good used differential (low miles) from a C230 same year and
same gear ratio ie. 3.27. Only problem is it's from a 230C K
model(1998) (not Kompressor per se). It is from a 180hp and mine is

I have a 1985 Mercedes 300Turbo Diesel. I love this car. It only has

I have a 2001 S430 and MB does not have the map cd for my city (Puerto

I've just received eBay and PayPal "spoofs;" apparently my name was
culled from this NG.
Both look quite authentic but are not; I know that because I don't have
an account at either place.

Do you know if is possible to put a TV tuner in the COMAND APS with DVD
navigator in the new SLK 200 ?

I just purchased a 1996 E320 but it doesn't have a CD player.  I am interested in determining exactly what options are available and recommended in terms of adding a CD player, ideally a 6 CD changer in the trunk or something like that.
I'm new to the Mercedes world so I have no ...

Firstly, I know next to nothing about mobile phones, and even less about
Mercedes!
I just bought an E200 Classic "W"  2000 Reg, fitted with a Nokia Cark91 kit.

Has anyone ever converted a 190TD Auto to a 5-speed,
and if so, can the parts be had in the US?
My Auto Transmission is starting to fail and I would
love a 5-speed.

I have a 1985 Mercedes 300Turbo Diesel and I am having issues with the
blinker. The hazards work. However, the blinkers do not. They quit all at
the same time. Not the fuse (the ones in the fuse box). I dont know if
there is another fuse? I have heard something about the blinker ...
