"Are you sure you have BOSE? ..." Yes, it is BOSE. Has the BOSE logo on the speaker grille and amp box.

Thanks for the replies. Parkham was the last Indie I took it to who said I was the battery (I have replaced it since with no change). There is another german car specialist here in Northampton (I won't mention names) who I'm told are very good at ripping customers off, so I'm reluctant to take...

I've posted this on the 'otherside' too but thought it might get more answers from both... I've searched all these forums and not found anything resembling my problem. I have a '02 C270 and it's developing a bit of an annoying gear change problem in that when you accelerate hard, it makes a...

Next one? Wow! Amazing feedback! When is the next one? I want in too... got to beef up my C270CDi wagon :thumb:

I have an audio 10 BOSE system in my car that I will be removing soon. I am in the process of investigating an aftermarket retrofit kit to replace all with... will keep you posted on progress.

I used to be an auto electrician (many moons ago) so here's my 5p worth... If the starter motor is engaging but not turning the engine over, then it is most likely the starter motor bendix gear. this is a one-way gear at the front of the starter motor that meshes with the flywheel when the...

I had a very similar problem on my C270... turn the key and just a 'click'. It turned out to be the battery, it was on it's way out. I think mercs have some sort of voltage cut off that won't allow the starter to fully operate if the battery voltage is less than a certain level. Remember...

It appears to be the same wood effect type...:dk:

I have just emailed them to ask compatibility, price and availability for the interface unit (61010) and cable (61022) ... this might be the one to go for that will let me use my original ebay unit i wanted...:thumb:

I'm not sure what type of wood effect I have (I can photo them for you) but I would like to replace them with the carbon fibre effect that comes on the Avantgarde as I have full grey leather interior.

Thanks for these mate

I came across this link today for can bus interface... any good? CAN BUS Interface : Nachrüstung von Navigationsgeräten für Fahrzeuge mit CAN BUS

Had a quick search here and on 'the other side', and couldn't find it... can you send link please?

Thanx cyberflex. I agree with you 100%, I also like doing things properly so your advice on doing an aftermarket upgrade later confirms my intention is the right thing to do. When I get to that stage I'll definitely call on you guys for info, and turn this into a documented project so that...

I don't recall any spare sockets on the back of the unit (I'll have to remove the unit again and check.) Again, it seems that it is not so straight forward... :wallbash: cplnoonoo: thanks for all your advice, much appreciated! Cyberflex: I appreciate the offer, but I think if I'm gonna...

Yeah, it seems that this head unit does not do the BOSE system any justice. What a shame. One day I'll have another go at it, maybe by then a new compatible head unit will be available. Or, if not, I'll just have to rip everything out and re-wire an aftermarket unit in... besides, I want to...

Hmmm... seems that this will be too much hassle/cost. I am pretty confident that I could do it, but I am worried about removing all the interior - or more accurately, knowing how to remove the interior without damaging anything. It seems that there needs to be a lot of interior removal to get...

Cheers for the quick replies. I'll have a quick read and see if it's what I'm looking for.. Regards
