trouble is we could'nt find where you plug it in on my 2001 w210 petrol E320 Avantgarde..........any ideas?????

Hi

I should be below the steering wheel at the bottom of the dash if you have one. You might not have one as they came in quite late in UK models. 2001/2002 if i am not mistaken.

Hope this helps,

Otherwise you need a adaptor for the 38 pin mercedes socket under the bonnet (available on ebay)

Here - 16pin to 38Pin Mercedes Benz Adaptor CABLE 38 Pin obd2 on eBay (end time 17-Oct-09 22:07:27 BST)

N.B. On my car I need to wire to pin 4 on the 38 pin to get my ELM327 talking.

Cheapo one (£10) of e bay worked a treat on my 2001 model, then some time later i also found i had the under dash obd socket!

Hopefully this picture will give you clue where to look to see if you have one.
