I've had an afterthought / further question. In my case, it's clear that the issue is the vibrating aluminium panel which the door speakers are fitted in. So I'm wondering - do the wood panels also give problems? Common sense would say they'd be less prone to flexing / vibrating. So...

Thanks for the replies everyone - nice to know from mgooda that it's happening elsewhere in the UK and from kjb1 that it's a 'known issue' in the USA. Especial thanks to i-CONICA for suggesting the test tone app. I've bought it and have now got some hard data on this rather than saying that...

Just a quick update on this. The car has now been in 9 times because of 3 different speakers rattling (centre speaker, left door, right door). The dealer have never swapped the amp but have either reseated or replaced speakers several times. Acoustic guitars set it off and if you have a...

Internet connection still not working in my W205. In the (many) times the car has been in, I've had various loaners. An older cla with previous version of command worked perfectly with Internet and my iPhone. I also had an SLA (100 miles on the clock so brand new) and that also worked...

Just an update to say that the 'turn half left' bug is *still* there. They had my car in and performed a bunch of updates just over a week ago. Irritating because I had an SLA on loan whilst mine was in. Command satnav in that car did not have the issue so clearly MB know how to make a...

Quick update - my car is ready so I'll go and get it later today. I had mentioned the Satnav 'turn half left' issue and he's investigated. Apparently they have heard of this / are aware of this and 'it doesn't just affect your car' so the earlier post from UR Busted about the S-Class makes...

Apart from this issue I really l like the satnav - I've had better luck with it than my previous TomTom or the Co-Pilot Live and the traffic has been great. As to the drivers seat.... Before I bought mine, I went to the dealers and I tried out the seat in the SE, the Sport and the AMG...

Thanks for the replies - I'll report my concern to the dealer and take a look at the settings when I finally get the car back. It's been in the dealership since Monday to try and sort out my farting speakers.... It's also supposedly having an upgrade whilst it's there to sort out the Internet...

Hi, My 205 C Class was new in December. It's in the dealers today so they can try once more to fix a dodgy speaker or two..... The Satnav in the C-Class is very, very good except a weird little quirk. I'd not asked about it on here before as I figured that this was just how Mercedes do...

I had a retrofit DAB in my Audi which was OK (ish) but gave a few dropouts. I bought a brand new C-Class 205 in December and the DAB reception has been superb - very, very few dropouts on my usual routes and I'm a happy camper. Reason I mention this is that my C Class is in today for other...

I'm awaiting a call from the dealer - they said with mine that they were 'waiting for a disk from Germany'. It was expected this week but I've heard nothing from the dealer as yet. Once I've been back, I'll report back here as to the success or otherwise :) Begs the question as to why it's...

I've recently bought a C220 Saloon. The first one I was due to get was in October; a car of *almost* the spec I wanted was available brand new at another dealer so I was told that I could have that one the following week or factory order. I went for October. By the time it turned up, the...

Yes, the telephone sets it off for sure. It's also possible to get resonance when you use the voice assist thing..... Ask it to dial a number and, when it fires a question back at you using it's internal voice, that'll do it! I can kind of live with it on the phone - it's not ideal but if...

Hi all, I mentioned this in passing in my other thread about lights, trims etc. Basically, my new C-Class arrived just before Christmas and it's lovely but for a few niggles. One of them? The front right speaker in the driver door (the lovely metal finish one) rattles. It only does so on...

An update..... The car went in yesterday. They replaced the broken trim and the left hand speaker.... I'll see how that goes. Worrying thing is that the November built 205 c class with Burmeister that I had as a loan car had the exact same rattle except on the right front speaker!! I am...

Thanks Jono and Grober - it's good of you both to take the time to respond :) I've been snowed today but I'll see if I can find this mystical menu tomorrow. Neither me nor the sales chap at the garage did anything remotely like that in the car! It's booked in next week anyway for:-...

You do not need to go for the AMG line to get Burmeister in the UK. It comes as part of the premium plus package OR you can get it as a standalone feature. You can get it in the Sport and the AMG. I'm not sure about the baseline model but the online config tool on the website will soon tell...

Thanks Mr B. Both Bluetooth and personal hotspot are on. When you get in the car and try the Internet on Command, it says that it is 'establishing Internet connection'. You get the blue banner comes up on the iPhone and it says it has a connection. The car, however, still says it's...

Thanks Grober and Roger, I've played more this morning and still no dice with the Internet connection. Out of fairness to the dealer, I called 02 (my provider) who told me to phone Apple. They were on the phone to me for 20 mins whilst they checked everything out and said there was no...

Thanks for this - I appreciate it. My concern is the ambiguity of left side traffic or right side traffic..... Is it talking about the side of the road that I drive on or the oncoming traffic? The manual can, IMO, be interpreted either way unless I'm being slow on the uptake and I apologise...
