    Low miles e55 s211

    Cheap too but a bit tatty. They'd have been better of spending a few 100 and fixing the bodywork. At least its not silver. Mercedes-Benz E Class 5.4 E55 AMG 5dr

    S211 Drivers Side Electronic Headrest sometimes not working

    Any recommendations, the drivers front headrest sometimes does not work. I am sure it's not the button which is at fault but some electrical loose connection from the headrest side because if I wiggle the headrest then it more than likely works for some time. Any hints? Regards.

    I've noticed that if I leave the car a couple of days pulling the dash lever to disengage the parking brake doesn't work immediately and the dash exclamation mark stays on. I seem to have to creep the car backwards (parked nose in) and keep trying and it will come off after a coupe of goes...

    Hi, Yesterday evening came an odd bang noise from outside. Couldn't see anything amiss. This morning found my S211 with its OSF almost on the floor. I'm aware that this is a known issue but my question is how do I get the darned thing to my local garage? The tyre is almost rubbing the...

    Hi, I had some suspension work done at the front of my car some time ago (lower/ upper ball joints, suspension control arm) but only had the front wheel tracking done (not very reliable/ accurate set up). Recently when the car was lifted on the ramps (to check the wheel bearing play), I found...

    S211 E55K AMG Estate

    Good morning, I like the look of this but have never owned an S211 (I had a C320 CDI in the past). I know that 2005 bought about some improvements (radiator, electrics etc) and this seems to have had some work done on suspension. SBC still concerns me but I know that it is not the end...

    I have no idea which version of the nav discs I have but they can't be that new. What's the newest I can get, where from and how do I update it? I've done a quick search and there seems to be comand updates and nav updates - presumably these are the same thing? Thanks
