Found it! https://www.pelicanparts.com/techarticles/Mercedes-W204/114-BODY-Trunk_Interior_Panel_and_Trim_Removal/114-BODY-Trunk_Interior_Panel_and_Trim_Removal.htm gets the actual trim I want off. Prying the silver trim is the bit where you have to be brave! But at least I know how to get to...

Trunk liner removed (4 torx screws and pop fasteners), trunk lid red warning light disconnected, trunk lock barrel removed, adjacent long/large retaining bolt (silver) removed. It's all a bit blind, the trunk handle has pop clips as do the number plate lights, the latter seem captive, snapping...

Trying to remove the boot handle plastic trim, took out both screws. Anyone got tekkers for getting it off? Tried attaching a photo, too large 😧

Yep, pulled 33 and it had absolutely zero effect on the car as far as I can see. So back to Google in the vain hope someone has a similar issue.

Okay maybe anyone else reading can help me out with this. The fuse is present (33, 10A) in the fusebox, but there is no TCM I can see, looking it up it refers to the Auto and the 7G-Tronic transmissions. My car is a manual (OM651.911) but there's nothing in the engine compartment and I don't...

Hey @Surgi did you get any further with this? I've read through and this thread is the only one that mentions an issue I'm now tracing. P082011 - Transmission Neutral Position short circuit to ground, was just general circuit error when previously cleared, but it's reappeared. I only hooked up...

No, not if you can't distiguish between SSD and any other storage and state "I wouldn't rely on (SSD) without any kind of backup" you worry me with "USB Flash Pen drives for retention" you 'wouldn't rely' on the same tech you use for 'retention'? Everything should have a backup or redundancy! I...

Just to update I've located one of the amps, it's part A204 280 0089 and it's marked CL which no doubt means it's the FM/AM/CL signal amplifier, but it looks to attach to the same point on the screen demister terminal (which I assume is the return connection) I've ordered salvage parts for...

Hi to anyone browsing this thread. I've also got poor FM reception (CD/SD OK so I know it's reception vs. noise). Checked Fuse 46 in rear SAM and it's OK, pulling it makes the reception no better nor worse so wanted to move onto the aerial amplifiers. In the W204 sedan, what is the best way to...

I'd have thought below 20mph would be better. But that's a start. Must confess to not being 'across' that, not really relishing the changes that seem to be inevitable.

Electric vehicles will up this game somewhat unless they are mandated with audible warnings.

Thanks. 18/08/11 tells me I should probably go ahead.

Did you make the files or have you just downloaded them from somewhere? Why I got into it in the first place was there wasn't a list. And I've had some fun gaining understanding.

I have bought the iCarSoft MB v3.0. It clears codes on my car, possibly the MB v2.0 would have....I just opted for the latest. Anyway, nothing to complain about so far. Updating the software is best done direct to the MicroSD card (they call it a TF card but IDK....MicroSD, people know what it...

Not wishing to be rude (to an offer of help) but all I see is a screenshot off your phone, there aren't any links or files.

Yeah I used to compile a file for the whole UK & ROI but it was updated by region and then merged into one file. Since parkrun updated their events website it doesn't list by area, there's too many to compare quickly. I suppose a different methodology would work, but now I have a working .gpx...

Thanks. I've had to play with the file to make it work on mine which may suggest your system is maybe more updated than mine in some way. The mapset is only 2013 but I had to see if I could get these POIs working to maybe justify the cost of updating the system for tidiness. I can make / use...

Hi, no it's just the first record to show the structure, so I can try that. Thanks. It will be the morning before I try again. I've zipped the full file as the .gpx is not allowable as an upload.

The smilies are the inline syntax on the forum :) :p : P (no space)

Despite all that, I've had no luck. The card is formatted correctly with the correct Folder name 'PersonalPOI' the file has been tried as 'PersonalPOIs.gpx' and the longer 'yorkshireandhumbersideparkrun.gpx' here is an extract of the code for the first POI there are just 63 entries. I use the...
