    Has anyone heard of Mercland?

    Yes. Ive bought many a car from dealers, unseen. You are protected under the consumer rights laws that if when it arrives, and you havnt seen it previously, and you are not happy with it, you get a full refund when the car is returned. If you are really worried though just pay for an RAC...

    Reliable free online VIN decoder!

    The only reliable VIN decoder is the Mercedes one. I've seen wrong cars, wrong options etc on all those pirated sites. I've given out loads of printouts to customers and forum members.......

    Retrofit IWC clock & carbon console

    Its the database entry Mercedes hold showing the options on the car. It is referred to when the car is coded. Also I wouldnt use T-taps. Very much a bodge in my experience. Best off to plug the loom correctly into the Lin bus so its as per factory.

    E212 Harmon K system

    I believe we may have communicated via email already. The HK amp is the 'gateway' for the sound. Unlike earlier E classes though its not an AGW as such. It doesn't house the tuner for instance. If you are getting no sound at all but the screen is functioning then you have a problem with the...

    Autowatch Ghost II or Pandora or ...................

    Autowatch ghost is excellent for preventing your car from being driven even with the keys! I have them fitted to all my vehicles. Mercedes Me shows me where the vehicles are too.

    Device Unavailable

    This is almost certainly the common Tuner/amp failure on these cars. Its located in the boot on the left.

    Audio upgrade reasonably happy

    We have upgraded a number of W/s 205's with and without Burmester. Speaker selection is key. Blam are excellent as are Morel. Focal too.

    COMAND not taking the fastest route

    I can confirm that simply picking your phone up off the floor and placing it on the passenger seat constitutes 'using it' and subject to the 6 points if caught.

    W212 Command Issues

    75, 85, 95 mph motorway miles per kwh ?

    I have an AMG line C220 estate. Whilst its got loads of torque its no where near a proper AMG sadly. Motorbike - gone. I need to update my signature. I ceerainly dont do anywhere near 95mph. Last time I hit 85 was on a french autoroute (136kph). I do not ever knowingly speed. If I see my...

    COMAND not taking the fastest route

    Agreed. I would ask the dealer to update the firmware to the latest version. The route guidance on my NTG 5*2 and NTG 5*1 systems sometimes leaves me thinking 'Is this really the best route?'. I have both set to calculate route choices and all three can be questionable at times.

    75, 85, 95 mph motorway miles per kwh ?

    For you, 75 is speeding, 85 is Officer attention zone, 95 is a court appearance not to mention a danger to yourself and others.

    Great service with map update

    He buys one copy legitimately from MB. Copies the data (against the ULA) then sells it on for circa £79 with a pirated activation code. Should your Comand unit ever get replaced by MB or a specialist youlll get back the maps that were last legitimately purchased for the vehicle.

    V350 Viano, cruise control retrofit and coding?

    Be very careful with any Japanese imported Mercedes. The specification differs sometimes enormously. So much so that the wiring is totally different to the rest of the world. Some cars can cost thousands to convert to European specification. Comand Online can code the vehicle. They will want to...
