Hi, I have a 2007 S211 with comand and factory fitted I-Pod interface with connector in the glove box, it has steering wheel and dash integration and I select AUX on the comand to switch to the I-Pod. I would like to intersect (if that's the correct word....) the AUX inputs that the I-Pod uses...

thanks everyone for your replies & clasiccarzone for your info, i'm weighing up if its going to be worth spending any more time and money on this as another problem has now developed , the turbo seems slow to spool up and after a few mins driving it throws a EPC error and into limp mode (3k rev...

EGR has been deleted/disabled and is closed with the vacuum blanked off

Thanks for the reply 91dm, The car has currently done 185000 miles , I did an engine oil & Filter, fuel and air filter changes and new thermostat in December 2017 ( about 14000 of those miles have been done by me since December 2017). it starts really well (really well even when icy cold) and...

Hi, I have a 2003 C220 CDI t-wagon (estate) that has always smoked quite badly. To give you a bit of background on the cars history I got the car in bad condition about 18 months ago, it was in M55 limp mode and once I took a closer look it obviously hadn't been looked after. modifying the inlet...

**UPDATE** I'm pretty sure the EPC error is not related to the mod and is an underlying issue that was present before the mod. I cleared the fault codes and the next day after cold startup I floored it 5 or six times and everything behaved fine then about 5 mins into driving I floored it again...

Sorry to bump this thread but I am having EPC errors after cold start when flooring the accel to kickdown (seems to throw the error when the kickdown button is pressed, if I carefully accelerate to full without pressing the kickdown the EPC error does not appear. Also as the engine warms the EPC...

I assume the dealer can re program it but dont think they just loose pairing?? May be worth trying disconnecting the battery for a few hours to reset everything (you will have to perform the reset proceedures (such as windows, BAS/ABS, etc) when you reconnect the battery, think its in a sticky...

its possible to do so safely if done correctly and very carfully, leads and conections are in good condition and connected in the correct order with correct proceedure followed to the T. But, the margin for error and risk of damage by surge or spike is such that in my experiance its not...

yes, slight leak but not wicking up the loom, I'm going to solder the wires as suggested to stop the path!

OK, thought i'd post an update and let everyone know what caused this! turns out the root of this problem was faulty cam sensor and faulty MAF sensors (both the original one and the new after market one showed the same dodgy readings!!!) and to make sure the day didnt get dull the exhaust...

check the PSE pump under seat (search the forum for info there is lots of info as they are known to fail) check its not damaged by moisture (common prob) see Dec's post above!!

the flashing is usually caused by the canbus detecting bulb failure, if you fit LED's you have to get the CANBUS compatible ones with resistors intregrated

chrisaaaaa NO! MB cars should never be jumpstarted!! big scary things can happen (as we have seen here!)

not heard of a comand completley dieing, i'd check fuses etc, have a look at - http://www.mercupgrades.com/W211+E-class-15.html lots of usefull info there Lots of comand related goodies - E (W211) 2002-2008 | E Class | Mercedes By Model | Comand Online Ltd SDS will access the command if...

really not sure about anything now? feel like i'm on wild goose chases in different directions. think i may have to buy a Star Multiplexer and see whats going on...........

Ok everyone here is an update to where i'm at - Managed to get PDF's of circuit diagrams from 'Subby' on another forum! also at the end you will see this eve I took Martyz's advice and removed the unbranded MAF! --------------------- ok, looking at the diagrams, the K40 provides +12v via...

Thanks for confirming the K40 controls the s/c clutch, any idea which relay in the k40 or which plug& pins just removed the k40 again, double checked the relay contacts for continuity and refitted, now the sc clutch wont even try to engage, AGH!

Orangeboy, sounds to me like you may have a similar prob to me when i had a battery draining problem in that you may have a faulty module preventing the bus from shutting down when the car is locked, Mine was caused by the keyless go module keeping the bus alive and not shutting down as it...

bit of progress and more questions........... ok think im making some progress........ I removed the K40 and checked the relay contacts and operation, all relays energised fine when 9v was applied to the coils but 3 of the relays showed open ciruit on the N/c contact of the relay so I removed...
