I am getting a message on my W222 screen "SERVICE AT". What does this signify? Its going for a service in a fortnight what may it require?

Thanks lads. Think I will find/change the aux battery first (cheapest).

Thank you for your replies. I understand the brake hold function (on a hill) is automatic. I have another question. If it was the battery, should I get a warning about this?

Hello. Have a W222 (S class). The vehicle has started rolling back on hills. Have read it could be a battery problem. Any ideas please?

Hi Borys, Bought one from the dealer December 2016. Cost (then) £343 + vat. Part No. A2224000700. Also bought tool bag £63.50 + vat. Contains Jack/Wheel spanner and other stuff. Part No. A1665806900. Sorry for late response.

Thanks for the response Martin. Just what my local garage said.

Bought W222 on release in 2013. last M.O.T reported brake pipe corrosion. Any thoughts? One owner maintained at M.B and only done 32000 miles. Very disappointing..

Sorry SYM I did mean a W220 and Yes I am pointing the fob right up to the door handle. As I said MB have confirmed the faults ( they have had it in their workshop on a diagnostic machine).

W220 Window/Mirror faults Hi Guys. Bought a S500 (02 plate) last week and are having problems with a couple of things. Had the car to MB who confirm the faults are genuine but need to have the car back to fully diagnose said faults (they suggested door control unit faults). Problem 1:-...

As above (AA) the RAC also offer warranties. Try their web site

My thanks to the two responde's (your right of course I should have said foglamps). I'll give it a try tonight. Cheers Pat

Can anyone tell me (if it is not too stupid a question). How do I change the nearside front spotlight bulb on a CLK320 facelift model? Only had the car 3 weeks and havn't figured it out yet. Heres Hoping Patrick.

Just bought a CLK320 this month (99 V) with 25K on the clock. Very pleased with the car its looks and its performance but glad I bought it with a warranty. Seller (Large Showroom) told me everything worked and they had had the electrics and controls checked out. After a couple of days...
