Hi, thanks for your contribution. I tried opening the door when driving at about 40km/h and the open door warning did show up. I also opened the bonnet whilst driving into the garage and the warning also showed up. So everything seems to be working now. Maybe the original open bonnet warning...

A few seconds after starting my car the main circular display in my dashboard went red saying the bonnet was open. I got out pressed down on the bonnet and checked it was closed. Got back in, warning was off, proceeded journey. A few seconds later the car starts beeping for a few seconds. No...

Thank you so much for your tips. I'll have a look at the article. I don't think other users were suggesting bridging between the tweeters and the subwoofer. I think they were suggesting bridging between the tweeters and the midrange speakers. I currently have the stock Audio 10 Becker cassette...

I wish I could understand your post, I really do. Unfortunately it's somewhat above my paygrade! :dk::dk:

I had no idea what a crossover was until I read your post! :thumb: I thought that to drive 6 speakers I would necessarily have to have six outputs from the main unit! Won't splicing an output for front speaker + tweeter make the whole system loose power?

Are you suggesting bridgeing the 2 tweeters with the 2 front main speakers and installing the crossovers in the tweeter paths so they reproduce only the high frequencies?

In some Pioneer head units you can drive a subwoofer directly from the RCA output but you have to give up two of the main speakers (in case you are using four of them).

Thank you for you reply. Am I correct in assuming I need another amplifier because the head unit only has power to drive 4 speakers at a time? If two of the RCA outputs are for front speakers could I hook up two twitters to them?

Hi. I am looking at Pioneer car radio models to replace my becker audio 10 and speakers in a 2003 CLK. As much as possible I would like to maintain the number of speakers I currently have installed in the car which are 7 (2 tweeters + 2 front + 2 back + 1 Subwoofer). Some pioneer units have...

Any suggestions on a Pioneer head unit that will allow me to use all 7 speakers I can place in my 2003 CLK (2 tweeters + 2 front + 2 rear + 1 subwoofer) or at least 5 speakers (2 front + 2 rear + 1 subwoofer)? I'm not looking for something very expensive or very cheap and I would like a nice...

That's very possible!

Thanks for all replies. :thumb: It seems this is a common issue. I'll have a look at that gooey stuff suggestion.

Hi. Thanks. I don't think I phrased my initial question in a clear way. I do know how to remove the shif knob, and you are right, it's fairly simply. What I don't know how to do is to remove the current LEATHER FROM the gear knob. It seems to be glued to the knob (even though it just clips to...

Hi. Does anyone know how to properly clean the central AC vent cover in a 2003 CLK (W209)? It seems to be made of a rubbery material that grabs the fibers of anything you try to clean it with. The more I try to clean it the dirtier it becomes. Thanks.

Hi. Since one of the four door speakers in my European manual transmission 2003 CLK240 (W209) has a ruptured cone, I am considering upgrading all four speakers to something a little better. I don’t listen to that much music in the car so it does not have to be a huge upgrade. Anyway, since I am...
