Hi all, I need to change the rear pads on my C63s W205. Now there is a hidden workshop menu you to this as found on YouTube etc. I press and hold the "Ok" button and the "Home" button while in the Trip menu. Then after 5 seconds the workshop menu appears. I select "Brake Pad Replace". Now the...

Great stuff. Ordered a new valve stem and they are only £8. A pain having no spare

Hi ya. Yeah it' only a temporary measure as it will take a week for a replacement and car doesn' come with a spare!

Hi guys, The TPMS vave just sheared off at the valve cap, previous owner hand not put anything on thread. So tyre completey flat and no spare! Do you know if a normal valve stem, standard rubber one can be fitted to the wheel temporary until I can get a new sensor stem or are the wheels...

They took the car back (they had driven the car 6 miles to me and dropped it off, I drove it home, 8 miles and noticed it!) then they returned it in the afternoon and said "we had not calibrated it after a software update" I personally think they had left something loose and didn't want to...

Hi ya, It didn't matter what speed I was traveling it, it was still the same. Say you where doing 40mph on duel carriage way, you could move the steering wheel from 11:50 to 12:10 (Looking at a clock) as fast as you like and the car never moved. To me its more like they loosened a mounting...

Hi, the car is less than two years old. All was fine, steering stiff, went in to the dealer to have engine mount changed underwarrenty. Car came back with loose steering.

I thought so! I had an issue where the dealer repaired my car and when it was returned, the steering was loose, as in steering wheel turned loose say 10 degrees before wheels would start to move. I got them to take it back and when returned was told "We did a software update and hadn't...

Hi Guys, Quick question. On the C63s Sedan, the steering will be direct drive i.e. mechanically connected directly from steering wheel to steering rack, just electrically power assisted?

I had the lens offered from china at £199 and a video showing it being changed. If I could get a second hand unit, my plan is to swap all the units over so it shouldn't need any codeing etc. I am still trying with the dealer as to me and others, its cracked because either its faulty, no...

lol trying to avoid a £1,500 bill for a new one!

Hi All, Has anyone ever manage to change the headlamp cover on a W205 ILS unit? Since I got my car back from the dealer, there is a couple of cracks appeared in the lamp but the dealer isn't excepting any responsibility as I have had the car back 5-6 days. :0(

Hi ya, I thought Richard mentioned the latest is 2016 V2.0? Not the 2016 V6.0? Cheers.

Hi Richard, So if I quote them "it should be 2016 (V6.0) minimum, they should know that it's definitely not been done? Many Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi guys, Had my 2015 C63s in for some warranty work and asked to have the maps updated as they are free etc. I was told by the after sales director after I asked via email to confirm they had and he said " yes, updated on Thursday" (Last week). I looked at the map version today and it says...
