I had this last week actually. Got a notification ping up saying my doors were unlocked and windows open. Had to leave an event to rush back to the car. It was locked and secure! What a joke, the app is crying wolf basically. One day I won’t believe it.....

so I heard a car fire up a little while ago, then realised I hadn’t put my keys in it’s faraday pouch. Checked the app and it had my car 2 miles from me! Thought that was a bit quick and looked out side and it’s still there. Was a neighbour leaving. Shut down the app, restarted and the same...

Hello all, so I discovered by chance that the parcel shelf lifts out of the way when I open the boot. It wasn’t pulled out before now. It only does this intermittently though. At first I though it would only do it if I used the key to open the boot as it wouldn’t work when i waved my foot...

Yeah I’ll probably do that when I go back. Just pure laziness on the parts guys part. Was also there so they wouldn’t fit it if it’s not supposed to be on my car! I mean for real? Lol I’ve found a place that will supply and fit one. It sure if it’s a genuine part the use though. Doubt it is.

I spotted a couple of mercs with what seems to be called the diamond grill recently and enquired with the parts dept at my dealer for a price as I’d like to upgrade the front end of mine to it. The guy asked for my vehicle details, I said I don’t want to buy what’s on my car I want the other...

Ok sounds good. Apparently I’m 45 mi a away but I’d imagine it’d be closer to an hour. What’s their pricing like, and if their was a problem, would I then need to reclaim from Mercedes some how? Or would I have them investigate to locate the problem then get Mercedes to fix it?

Hello all, So the volume boost makes my music via Bluetooth play louder/better. Bass seems improved (but not all that). I have to keep turning this on each time. Is there a way to have it stay on permanently?

I pulling up a black boots wheels in motion, is this right? It’s a long way and if I’m travelling there over the merc specialist in my town (they even have star access) I would probably go along to my mates garage which is roughly the same distance. Good to know though. In my opinion the front...

I was thinking I need a second opinion too. I have two options. A local Mercedes Indy. Or my mate who is a Land Rover specialist. His place is not local though. As for taking a pic etc, I will have to find somewhere that fits the bill and post a pic. It’s comms have to be a car park I guess...

I went back this morning. They had the same technician have a look. He says it’s fine. I then requested to go out for a test drive with him. We did. I showed him what was happening. We switched seats and it wasn’t happening. He set the steering straight and let go of the car. Car went straight...

I’m getting so wound up I’ve gone out and tried to check the alignment whilst parked on my drive. S/wheel “ is straight and the wheels do appear (in my eye) to be pointing left slightly. :wallbash:

Can it be that he’d to put the wheel back on? I’m no mechanic but in my youth modding my MR2 turbo I switched the wheel and didn’t have any problems with it!

Yes this could be it. I can only say that if I hold the wheel ‘straight’. The car goes left slightly. It’s not the road ‘shape’ as it would drive straight on the same roads before. I’m anal about this as I had a car once that used to pull left because of accident damage.

Gutted is not the word! They called me at 7pm to say they haven’t seen the driver yet. Not sure why they need to see him as it wasn’t listed on their inspection sheet as damage. On top of this they still owe me my refund for the holding deposit but that’s another matter which has been dealt with.

Well this is going from bad to worse. The car, with the steering straight is pulling left now on roads it never used too!!

Ok guys, steering wheel was replaced in its entirety in less than a day. Washed vacuumed and returned to me with a full tank of diesel, had around a quarter tank left when they took it. But it’s come back with a fine scratch along the d/s door. I’m waiting for a call back from them...

Ok so apparently the engineer couldn’t hear a rattle in either location. I doubt they did town driving which wouldn’t produce it. They said to monitor it and if it occurs again to contact them. I said it may take me taking the engineer out for a ride if he is limited to a certain speed of...

Yeah I was wondering if there would still be a speaker area in the passenger side for the LHD vehicles that I could as a sub too. I think you may be right though. I’m going to look into under seat subs. many thanks :)

I’ll get the. To have a look at it on Wednesday when they take the car for the steering wheel replacement. I’ll update with what they say/do

hello all, So, I driving around tonight with the music barely up at all. (Wife had a phone call). I noticed a rattle/almost a buzz, which I thought was coming from somewhere where the passenger door meets the dash. It wasn’t. It was coming from the over head control panel. It’s almost...
