ECU Reprogramming?

[Deleted member 2227]

Greg, i am very envious, thats the problem when you have such an old car. No mods for me then

Er what is that lot in your signature then You already have adjustable, heated, blinking, auto dimming (both sides), folding mirrors on your car.

Besides your car is a tiny bit faster than mine

I'm sure our friend can come up with something for you.....

....how about ipod integration or at least an aux input?

Sorry they are separate sensors. I tried this on mine and the sensor didnt fit the housing

Mine appears to have 2 sensors (or at least 2 sensors 'windows') in the screen - a big one and a small one. Does that sound right? It def doesn't have auto wipers which is a real pain, as I've had them on my previous cars for years.

Rory is your car an 05 build. If you are not sure PM me your vin number and I'll check for you.

Thanks - done.

It does show as having 805 in the option list, which means it's an 05 model year car, but I guess all facelift W203's will show this, and some would have been built much earlier in 2004.

I think early ones do show as 04 and your one is definately 05 so you should e able to mod away!

Flash is checking the settings for tank capacity and tyre pressure loss this weekend.

RSD2,

My friend is not sure either at the moment on getting tanck capacity to display... He will try and find out about it from "Stealer Tech Support" provided by DC when he gets a chance to do so at work. I will keep you updated as soon as I find out anything...

Hmm...I'm thinking if we can post some "instructions" on a separate thread about these mods? Like the one for chirp sounding alarm? (program, body, rear sam, Netherlands). These could be handy for overseas people like me who cannot bring the car to UK... I'll take my car here, in Cyprus ,for these mods to a guy who has such equipment but he is not sure if he can work all the mods...
There are such softwares on e-bay, with a laptop and a connection, we could do it ourselfs...

So I've just taken my car in for its first ever trip to the dealer and asked to have the mirrors set to auto-fold. I told them it could (apparently) be done by Star Diagnose.
The 'service team leader' just looked baffled, but said he would ask the technician.
When I picked the car up they said it couldn't be done - it's not a feature available on my car.
So whether that means it really isn't possible, or they just can't / won't do it as it's not a standard feature on my car, I don't know.

They also did something to the AGW (Audio Gateway) as part of a service advisory type thing, and I mentioned the roundabout error in my V2.0 sat nav DVD. They upgraded the DVD - to V2.2!!

if you have the cornering function, expect everyone to say - "hey mate one of your driving lights doesn't work - not very good for a merc!"

and again last Friday

 

[scumbag]

he managed to perform none of the mods on my car....as the car refused to let him....

nice of him to spend 45mins trying to tho....

 

[fuzzer]

and again last Friday

thurdsay for me

its ironic that they only give you the driving lights with the xenons. The xenons give out tonnes more light than the standard halogens. surely it should be the other way about ?

 

[westside]

my 2003 has auto lights and fold in mirrors i assume that I can get the mirrors to fold when i lock and un lock the car, if so who does this mod lol

re corner function

Twirled round car park at shops tonight, clockwise - caught reflection of right corner light in the window - then twizzled left to park up. Left light came on ie both now on - then right one went off - then left one went off. Smiled.
