    New C300h Hybrid Owner - no start/stop or electric even on Eco?

    johnboy99 Glad to read it was sorted. Mine continues to be fine. Debden sorted it more by luck than judgement for me though I think as they do not seem aware of it as a known issue unlike other dealers...

    Keyless Entry Theft

    Thanks for the thought. Geofencing not set up and I don't think it affects whthwr you are told the car is left open. They pest to have entered via the boot (estate car) then opened a door from inside. No alarm or signal from the Mercedes Me app. Ordered some rfid pouches which may be more...

    Keyless Entry Theft

    Car opened by someone but no message from Mercedes Me? My wife rang me earlier today to say the C300h was open and had been gone through. Nothing of value I can think of in there, and no apparent damage. No alarm going off. User manual stolen but the actual V5 is retained at work. The car...

    Highlight to them changing (or maybe just disconnect/reconnect) the secondary battery. Even if it shows that there is no fault on diagnostics.

    C300h owners club

    Realised I updated my own thread but not the owners thread. Since the hybrid function has been sorted the car makes a lot more sense, and is a much better drive in London traffic. The little battery syncs well with the diesel and in sport mode it is surprisingly responsive. Shame the gears...

    Any idea if this is doable by the consumer? Not even certain where the 12v battery is....!

    It certainly helped me like the Polar White estate I got recently second hand. Never thought I'd get a white car but it had the spec and looked good to me

    New C300h Hybrid Owner - no start/stop or electric even on Eco?

    Another little bonus. I ran the VIN which said I had the hands free "kick to open" for the boot. I had tried it but clearly badly (more of a wiggle than a kick). Just tried again and success! Another gadget haha.

    In hindsight the c350e would probably have been much better for me, even if I never charged it, as I don't ever get close to 5000 miles annually.

    My mileage is low but this works as a company car tax wise.

    New C300h Hybrid Owner - no start/stop or electric even on Eco?

    It is on 2016 v8 now which I think is the latest Comand TomTom maps. I got v18 from the website here, not sure what they relate to https://www.commandonline.co.uk/europe-map-dvd-NTG2.html

    C300h owners club

    Finally have the hybrid side of things working! (I have a thread about it not working, a service seems to have sorted). Great how it goes in to glide mode, and to have the engine shut down when it should. When I was looking at the C class, I decided I much preferred the look of the estate over...

    W205 C300h Tyre Wear Issues

    No way of telling, as no idea how many miles are on them. I'm on AMG suspension and the ride whilst firm is fine though. Oh, and I just have a can of gunk which I hope I never need.

    W205 C300h Tyre Wear Issues

    My C300h has 19" with non run flats but (I think) the 19" can only be ordered from Mercedes with run flats. I'm the second owner and the private dealer advised me the first owner changed non run flats due to harsh ride. (May also have been as he wore the first set out with 12,000 miles on the...

    New C300h Hybrid Owner - no start/stop or electric even on Eco?

    So an update. Collected car this afternoon. I didn't get a copy of the works note (I think I will ask and see if I they will give it to me) but was advised as follows on the points I raised 1. Fix hybrid - they said no issues with batteries and they it was a software fault. I was doubtful...
