    GLC & C Class creaking seals

    Thanks for the heads up Jay. I did manage to have my cars creaks "fixed" at the dealer around Xmas but needless to say, they have come back. I'll be grabbing some felt and trying your fix.

    Mercedes me app

    There are a couple of things you need to do before it will work. (Im assuming you haven't - apologies if you have!) 1. Register your VIN against your account. I did this using the website. 2. Contact your dealer and have him activate Mercedes Me for you. It simply wont work until you do...

    Really P*ssed Off

    ..and on what basis are you making that assertion? I took delivery of a W205 in December. I'll admit that I was nervous when I heard that production had switched to SA. That was on the basis of the issues a friend had with a Mercedes a few years ago, which was apparently SA built and which...

    US W205 "MB TEX" Issues

    Looks as if W205 C Class cars produced in the US Alabama plant are having materials/QC issues. The seat issue looks nasty. 2015 Mercedes C-Class owners reporting bleeding seats

    Courtesy car

    My thoughts exactly. Without being overly disrespectful to the OP, if your customer expectations are so high and you are worried about the impression your car will make, I suggest the cars age is as much a part of that equation as the model!

    New C Class (W205) - No classic grill in the UK?

    Im not sure if its mentioned in any of the other forum posts but it seems demand for the classic grill in the UK is very low. According to Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate review (2014 onwards) - MSN Cars UK... Quote: "Sadly, with only 1.7% of UK buyers opting for the ‘classic Saloon grille’...

    W205 Ordered Today

    I was told 2 things were affecting delivery. The first was the move of RHD production to South Africa, which was adding 5 weeks. The second was a delay associated with the Premium Plus Pack being part of the spec. The dealer had hoped to modify a "scheduled for production" car to my spec. to...

    10% discount on new W205 C Class

    I recently drove the C class in 250 diesel and 200 petrol guises, both times with the steel suspension. The test routes were pretty typical of UK roads: fair share of potholes across a mixed urban, dual carriageway drive, plus a smoother motorway run. If there is anything "wrong" with steel...

    10% discount on new W205 C Class

    Ordered last week and managed to get just shy of £2,000 by way of dealer contribution and discount. It seems that as MercedesMatt says, only now are some discounts being offered. The discount is a bit soured by the fact that on top of the 5 weeks being added to the delivery date because of the...

    Hi all First post so be gentle! I'm edging ever closer to buying a new C class. I've worn out the online configurator and its time to visit a dealer, arrange a test drive and hopefully place an order for a C220 AMG Line. Does anyone have any recommendations for a dealership in the...
