Just had my next service scheduled for my '17 c43 and it quotes the same campaign item: CAMPAIGN: SOFTWARE UPDATE OF POWERTRAIN CONTROL UNIT. Found some documentation online from MBUSA about a campaign from march 22 - Campaign No. 21P5498710 that calls out 2015-2018 C-Class and GLC-Class (205...

Nothing in the user manual book - but going with ESS it is 3 years (or 46k miles), so I guess I am fine with it. Thanks for all the replies.

Just got a "non-binding" service quotation from my dealership - on that they recommended spark plug replacement. My car is exactly 3 years old c43 with 13k miles done. I need to double check my manual on this point, but isn't that bit too early for new spark plugs? Thanks for your input

It's a coupe but i guess in saloon version the door would have similar build.

I have the app updated to the latest version - the main inspection entry is still there. I am also not sure if this would be MOT, why would Mercedes care to display its due date? I guess I will wait and see after the next service.

As I see it across various (many recent threads) about crabbing - some ppl accept that the crabbing is expected under specific conditions on summer tyres (Merc, Porsches, few others), some other ppl see it unacceptable. I guess it depends heavily on the degree of crabbing you are really...

I am getting some interior rattles on the passenger side door panel (W205 2017 coupe) - from what i can estimate the sound comes from the area where the speakers (Burmester) + ambient lightning LEDS are. The rattle sounds like something loose inside (cables or some plastic touching other...

Vehicle Service Dashboard on my Mercedes Me app shows me following (screenshot attached): Next Service in 11 days Next main inspection in -6 days (overdue) My car is from 2017, last service was done in Jan 2019, and according to the car dashboard next service due is A4 in 11 days, the...

From my experience - had a lot of pan roof rattles on my c43. Three visits to the dealership only confirmed they had no idea how to fix it - looked like the rattles did not come from parts that would require lubrication, but from spots that touch other spots (plastic) when the roof is closed...

@jonnyMercUK what tyres are you running now? I had the problem on 2017 C43 with Dunlop tyres that came with the care, switched to Continental Conti Sport SSR runflat - crabbing gone 100%. I would expect Merc to have this sorted out by now on 2019 models - at least them to get non-crabbing tyres...

Coming from c43 Coupe 2017 with the same problem (18' Dunlop Sport Maxx). Being told by dealership this being a "feature" in my car that cannot be fixed and I need to replace to winter tyres as the only solution to make the problem less perceivable. Loads of bu... Following some other posts on...

I put it wherever I could. From the rear side of the roof, there is of layer of hard plastic which is separating the glass roof from the retractable sunshade. I believe it was a part of this plastic layer that was rattling against the glass. So just cover with felt tape as much of it as you can...

Was getting similar rattles in w205 C43 - seemed like from the rear seats or the rear shelf, in the end it proved to be the sunroof. As rayaans mentioned above - if the sunroof was in the semi-opened position the rattles were gone. A good few meters of felt tape sorted the problem in my case...

@C43AMG those are summer tyres if I am not mistaken: Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S Press Release - Tyre Reviews "The "4 S" name could mislead you into thinking this tyre has all-season (or "four season") capabilities, but rest assured the new 4S is just as focused as the Michelin Pilot Super Sport was."

Any recommendations on High Performance All-Season tyres in Europe/UK ? It seems to be quite lacking category here. While when browsing through TireRack, they seem to offer a multitude of those...
