    Thanks chaps, duly booked into Class Cars as they are quite close to me, in a weeks times. Fingers crossed they find this problem, it is driving me nuts. Just do not trust the car at the moment. Mercworld although helpful, did not find a fault, but neither did they charge for taking a look...

    TMC (Dynamic Route planning) Yes or No?

    Hi chaps. I know this is a bit of an old thread, but I have finally got myself another Merc with comand, it's a 55 plate C Class. Anyhoo. I purchased the 2014 DVD for it, and it updated what I assumed was the firmware. Now the problem. For some reason it wants to avoid motorways and major...

    Dim Xenon headlights

    I know this post was a goodly while ago, but suffering from the same problem with my 2003 E, they lights are like the driver, getting old and dim! Drivers is past it, hence he could do with decent lights. So is it off to the dealer ? Paul

    Aftermarket Comand

    Without wishing to upset anyone, but has anyone actually have one of these fitted? The Dynavin? It seems to me that I have little choice as the NTG2.5 appears to be for 2005 onwards, and mine is a 2003 W211. Cost for me is key, and I seem to remember it was serious money to get the original...

    Question re W211 2003? 2004?

    Thank you one and all. Have purchased the car, and from what the garage told me, a chap called the Merc Man will be servicing and sorting the other bits out. Now I am pretty sure he was a guy based in Kent? Damn my memory is getting bad. Paul

    Hi chaps I am looking at buying a 2003 (march) E 320 CDI Car is quite clean and low mileage for year. Now I am not sure about this, but I have nagging feeling that anything below a 2004 had problems of some description? or something to do with the in car audio? Now it may have been a rust...

    Comand & CLK what a croc !

    Not my weekend, just picked up my CLK350 cab, nice car, apart from the Comand. No DVD playback, No MP3. And found out no phone pre wire. So what is the difference between my comand in the CLK 55 plate, and the Comand in my old 04 plate E class? The units look the same, really miss the ability...
