    R230 SL500 (2004) More Power - Remap and Rolling Road Run

    I am looking to get some more power and responsiveness from the car. I also have XJR and XKR (both 4.2 SC) and I feel that the 5.0L in the Merc, whilst not matching the other two should be closer in performance. Bearing this in mind does anyone on here have any experience of remapping Mercs in...

    How to set up current road speed limit

    I have a 2015 E220 Bluetec and wonder if it is possible to get the Sat Nav to display the current road speed limit. I have not been able to find it in the available menus, but perhaps it is set via a different route. Any thoughts or advise please.

    I have noticed several road direction signs recently where next to the place name there is a yellow rectangle with a solid black dot and/or a solid black square. Sometimes there is just the outline of a square or circle. I think I have also seen a diamond (but may be making that bit up) Does...

    Rough road handling! Life span on struts and springs?

    Spotted first GLE63s on the road

    No pics sorry, I was too busy trying to keep up! Man it looks like a wall of car from behind and the rear wheels make it look almost dragster-ish. A bit like the new C class I don't think the rear is its best angle. Stuck behind him up a slip road onto dual carriageway and pinned it in Sport...
