MB C220cdi amg sport
Hi guys, new here. I have just bought a 2013 c220 cdi amg pack. I was wondering if anyone knew how to keep the drls on permanent?
Also, I have bought MF13 UMA, does anyone know any history or even better previous owners?

Many thanks
Jon
 
Welcome.

If you have halogen headlamps, then the DRLs will automatically switch-off when the headlamps come on.

With Xenon HID headlamps, the DRLs will dim when the headlamps are on, but won't switch-off completely.

Your halogen-equipped car can be reprogrammed so that the DRL dim just like on an HID-equipped car, instead of switching-off as they currently do.

The reprogramming requires STAR diagnostic computer, so this is a job for a local MB specialist, I.e. it's not a DIY job.

With regards history, you'll have to pay a fiver or so the likes of RAC / Cazaza, which will provide additional details on top of the free data that available online.

An online MOT history check will obviously provide the MOT history (unless the car is an import, was in NI, or SORNed).

And, your local MB dealer can provide a printout of the service history (or rather, whatever services that have been logged on the Mercedes Benz Digital Service Book online). Bring with you the V5C in your name, and a photo ID (driver licence).
 
Also, a free online MB VIN decoder will give you the list of options that are fitted to the car.
