    Park Assists Disabled on all new Mercedes help!

    Spoke to my dealer today while picking mine up after a service. This is causing havoc, and the staff are getting abuse. I can (unfortunately) confirm though that park assist and lane assist is the be removed from all vehicles of any make over the next couple of years. It’s up to the manufacturer...

    Park Assists Disabled on all new Mercedes help!

    Tested mine and it still works. 2020 C300DE, Registered July, delivered August. Not that I use it, as posted above, played with it for a bit and realised by the time its finished, I could have gone into Asda, done a big shop, had a coffee in the cafe, and loaded the car.... LOL.

    MB E Class 220d as towcar.

    Cannot agree with this any more strongly. Please do not assume it is homologated for towing just because another car in the line up is. It doesn’t work that way. You must check. Go to one of the main towbar sites like Witter and check. If you got one fitted on a non approved configuration you...

    IPhone Turning volume down automatically

    Doesn’t help. This new feature affects all outputs. I listen to the radio via wired speakers in my home office and this keeps dropping the volume every few minutes. I can only see this going one way, Apple will be made to find a method to make this optional while complying with regulations. As...

    Adaptive high beam assist query

    I don’t use this anymore. It’s better than the first versions of this type of function, but still not good enough IMO to be relied on. I was getting numerous flashing from oncoming cars and especially trucks. That said, I have never noticed anyone coming at me with very obviously full beams on...

    2016 S205 C250d - issue syncing iPhone X contacts with COMAND

    This is an issue with some phones. I’ve had the same, and every time I add a new contact to my business phone I go round the same dance. It doesn’t update the car. You need to go into your contacts settings on the phone and make sure only 1 group is selected. Usually, ‘All contacts’ works for...

    Sat Nav Speed cameras

    Pocket GPS World has what’s widely regarded as the best camera database in the world. They supply many sat nav map makers. 20 quid a year for weekly updates, and if you report a camera and are the first to do so, you get a year free. I’m still in my 7 free years having reported many of the new...

    Any other.......

    C300DE owners about? Just wondering if to get a thread going. I know there is the 350e thread, and I’ve got lots of useful info from it; but there are quite a few differences between the 2. Or, just have a combined thread maybe. ?

    Is this message normal

    The classic being: “Start engine. See owners manual” 😂 Never did get any explanation for this, even from Daimler tech support in Germany.

    Steering wheel not straight

    Delivery miles. (Although these are higher for fleet cars) It arrived on a mini 2 car flat bed style transporter, so it maybe got bumped up the ramp. The other thing I wasn’t happy with was the car on top (brand new A Class) has dropped oil on the bonnet! I got the car valeted immediately and...

    Steering wheel not straight

    The steering wheel on my brand new 300de is off :-( Points to 1 o'clock when driving straight. It’s very off putting. Will get it in at some point.

    E class towing

    This was an issue when I ordered mine. I wanted a C300DE Estate AMG Line Premium Plus. Can’t, and it isn’t plated to tow. Had to take a C300DE Estate AMG Line Premium, which is. The weight of the batteries and the sunroof means the plus can’t tow. The rear axle weight limit is insufficient...

    Need help, central locking, tailgate inoperative, won't start after towbar fit.

    Hi. Was this fitted professionally or did you DIY? Did you use a model specific wiring kit and code the car? Any of that may or may not be a factor, just trying to get the baseline info. :-)

    Dashcam Installation

    I wired my dash cam in my c class to a live in the gubbins above the rear view mirror. However, as stated above, they are very sensitive to battery level, so I just pulled the plug out from the camera every night. :)

    Any idea what this is?

    As above, looks like a telematics box to me. Is it an ex company car?
