    Can indies preserve FSMBH?

    I'm on a PCP with my C Class and was told at purchase when asked ... It has to be serviced at a MB dealer as part of the contract ! Bummer I was all up for my local indie doing the yearly services. I guess if you own your car outright, it's your choice. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

    All there made out to be?

    Don't buy a Jaguar then ... couldn't wait to get rid of mine, spent more time at the useless dealers than on my driveway ! My 2017 C220d 4matic is sublime right now, looks great, super comfy, very happy. It does depend on how good your dealer is, I don't mind the odd niggle as long as it gets...

    Disconnecting car battery W205 C Class ?

    I don't have the WIS, I've only been using the PDF found on a post from a previous member who fitted the new grille. I assumed it was a WIS as it has some photos with a few notes but no more than just "remove this and remove that" I'll call the dealer tomorrow and see what the process is for...

    Disconnecting car battery W205 C Class ?

    The WIS for removing the front bumper says to disconnect the battery ... I'm assuming this is to protect from accidental triggering of the pedestrian protection sensor. It might all be complete nonsense, and I can remove the bumper and disconnect the parking sensor and pedestrian protection...

    Disconnecting car battery W205 C Class ?

    Checked the handbook many times now and no mention of disconnecting the battery unfortunately. With the Bank holiday I've got 4 days of nervously considering having a go I'll call the dealer tomorrow and ask if someone in service can confirm what happens with the battery off. Until then I...

    C Class Front Grill

    I brought an aftermarket diamond C43 style grill on eBay ... not sure if that was what you were asking after. The quality looks good, unfortunately my local Mercedes dealer refuses to fit it ....apparently they are not allowed [emoji36] Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

    W205 Black Gloss Centre Console

    I had gloss black on a previous car and it scratches so easily. I used a good quality micro fibre cloth and only ever gave it a light dust over. Any stubborn marks just use a damp tissue and then dry lightly with the micro fibre cloth. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

    New Mercedes member

    Endless problems from the day of purchase unfortunately. Large scratches on collection and water filled brake lights. Then the entire electrical system developed Gremlins, with the Sat Nav not starting when needed, the parking sensors would come on and beep continuously during driving on open...
