keys

I've recently purchased an ML from a repossessions company. The car has no keys and I've been told I have to wait for DVLA to issue the new V5C before Mercedes will order replacements. I understand the reasons for this but surely the bill of sale is evidence that I am now the registered owner...

Hi, A few weeks ago I came on a Friday from a business trip, where I spent some money on suits and clothes due to my birthday having been on that week. I left the items in my car to avoid hassle from my Mrs for spending so much, and went to get them out Monday evening. All of the items had...

Hi guys,I have owned over 20 mercs over the last 22 years but as they are getting a little harder to work on(electronics)hence why I'm here to seek help! I have 3 190s(2x190e 1x190d) and have just bought a 1996 E300td from a salvage auction to give up its engine to put in one of the...

I have bought a couple of mecrs over the last few years and was wondering why they only ever have one key. Do the previous owners keep them as a souvenir or maybe the first owners are really careless and just lose them all? Do people that buy new cars have a draw full of old car keys? The...

I have tried to order a new key through my local Mercedes dealer and have been informed that the keys are no longer available so if I have lost my key the car is effectively a write off. Where do I go now

First off let me apologise if this is old news - not to me and I'm struggling to find anything on here. Second not sure if the fact that mine is a 500 has any relevance but just in case. I have two push button keys for the car but one stopped working today with no warning so changed the...

Hi I'm new here so hope his question is in the right place. I have just aquired a 2005 cls 500, but only have 1 smart key.The vehicle is equipped with keyless go, are keys available with this function, and if so are they main dealer only or is there an alternative. Thanks

I ordered a new Keyless go key from MB, it duly arrived, on Star they removed the missing key and did any other necessary stuff. However, it will not operate as keyless go and I did not have time to return to the garage. I will be returning first thing tomorrow. Does anyone out there know if...
