    2023 GLB Limp home mode (no codes recorded)

    Had the engine light illuminate on my 22 GLB200 3 times, last time stayed on for 2 days including a 98 mile trip, never gone into limp mode tho. When serviced I asked the dealership to check for fault codes, they said there weren't any as the ECU is self repairing and deletes fault codes when it...

    Dashcam option

    I fitted a Garmin 55 dashcam to my GLB, cheaper than the MB option plus it starts automatically and has speed camera alerts. It's also quite a small unit.

    Insurance is a JOKE

    As my renewal was looming I checked a couple of comparison websites to gauge what the renewal quote would be, was shocked to see that the CHEAPEST quotes were double what I paid last year for less mileage allowance. When the actual renewal came in it worked out at £200 less than the cheapest...

    Mb Manchester closed

    Must admit that on my visits to Stockport parking has been problematic as not many spaces free, staff have to park offside its that bad, one of the reasons for moving from the A6 site was lack of space. Also concur with the meet and greet, stopped at gate by security man, young girl just inside...

    Mb Manchester closed

    Whilst in MB Stockport I picked up that the Manchester dealership had closed, a quick Google confirmed the fact. Don't know the reasoning behind the closure but as it was close to City's ground has the planned developments forced the issue? Seems strange to leave Manchester with no central...

    I used a stopclock (completely covering the steering wheel) on my GLC, never had any issues with the alarm.

    New GLB

    Yes got the 200 petrol, GLC was 2 litre, previously had a number of diesels. Frequently in the Lake District with big climbs, GLB has no problems. When on Motorway at 75'ish engine doing @2000 revs, in fact car seems to spend most of its time at 2k revs unless accelerating or steep climbs when...

    New GLB

    I too swapped from a GLC Sport to a GLB AMG Line premium. Similar cars but very different. Still miss my GLC but like the GLB, also find the GLB more comfortable and economical on longer journeys, both are petrol.

    C-Classe Coupe 2018 Switched Fuses for Dashcam?

    In my W205 c class saloons (2) and GLC I used a unused fuse position in the fuse box in the end of the dashboard. There are switched and unswitched locations that are unused, I plugged into the live side of the unused fuse location using a flat spade connector with a fuse in the cable. I used a...

    Dash cam

    I used a spare fuse slot in the fuse box located in the end of the dash. I found a switched unused fuse holder so used that by using a flat spade connector rather than a fuse, the connecting cable had its own fuse. You may or may not have an empty fuse slot depending on what options are fitted...

    New MB pricing

    I bought my new GLB in August from a local dealer with a discount, looked online at current prices, not only is there no discount now there is also a price rise of £2000 on RRP! And they think this is god move, might be for them, suppose most won't be bothered as most cars will be on PCP. ☹

    Mercedes Me

    Think that the lock/unlock function is now part of a paid for package, grouped with some other items.
