    2014 slk250 - no total closure?

    Is there a website to decode the vin to show what options your car comes with? None of the Russian ones work anymore.

    2014 slk250 - no total closure?

    Not daft at all - it wasn't to start with - but it is now & still the same. It all works from inside but not through they key. It won't even close the windows via the key.

    2014 slk250 - no total closure?

    There is definitely an infrared light in the end of the key and the car doesn't have 'one touch' control of roof but there is a button to hold which opens roof & windows so I don't think it needs recalibrating.

    2014 slk250 - no total closure?

    Hi all, not sure where to post this - admin please move if in the wrong place. My friend has a 2014 SLK250 & doesn't seem to have any receiver on the driver's door handle for the total closure system? According to the manual you should be able to close the roof & windows by holding the key...

    Passenger Airbag Recall 20212 A207

    I've had the same one - unfortunately the airbag warning came on the next day?????? The roof has been dripping onto the passenger seat and I wonder if this has got to the wiring for the airbag? Very reluctant to take it to a main dealer for the recall with an airbag fault !!!

    Chrome trim restored

    Did you go through the protective lacquer? I assumed it is polished aluminium with a coating on & the damp gets between causing the discolouration??

    Aluminium/chrome strip on roof box cover for E convertible

    Hi all, has anyone had a problem with the decorative strip on the folding roof box cover for the E class convertible A207? I think its polished alloy but it's gone very milky. The part number is : A2077500400 or A2077500200 and the cheapest I can find one is £390 + cheers Chris

    W212 AirCap Issue

    Although this thread is a few years old I thought I'd just point out that the front aircap only raises at a certain speed while driving - and then drops when you stop! Does anyone know how to lift it up when stationary?

    Obsidion black - 2 types?

    That's what is bothering me, my last Black Merc was a 2000 E class and that was very metallic - this one doesn't have anywhere near the effect - it just looks plain. The only reason I am asking is that I have a few stone chips to touch up & I want to get the right colour!

    Obsidion black - 2 types?

    Hi all, can anyone clear this up for me? I have a 2012 E class with the paint code 197 but when I look it up from the VIN number it comes up as 197U - which is obsidion black METALLIC. I don't think this one is metallic - it looks plain to me, I had a metallic obsidion car a few years ago & it...

    Upgrade of s/h Becker Map Pilot

    Yes thanks Markjay - I have only just installed content manager & managed to update firmware to 2.0.49 I'm just wondering if the newer firmware 2.5.27 is worth installing? The audio fading seems to be not working & also the TA system. Also if it's worth paying 89 Euros for map updates - they...

    Upgrade of s/h Becker Map Pilot

    The device ID starts MO13 - so I assume its that model? Is the v2.5.27 worth upgrading to & if so what are the differences and any problems with it - anyone know? cheers Chris

    Upgrade of s/h Becker Map Pilot

    Hi, I have just updated my BMP (which had the original 2011 maps on) and it now shows the software as 2.0.49. I know there is a 3.0.18 update - is it working ok with the older maps & an improvement on the old software. cheers Chris
