Over here in the states I have an E220 CDI that was imported from Belgium. A very rare bird. All of my vehicle literature is of course in French and, although being as helpful as possible, my local dealer and MBUSA are unable to find any references to the part numbers or order numbers for these documents in the English version. Seems MBUSA is very much disconnected from their European counterparts.
Specifically, I need the part number that correlates to a Service Booklet with order number 6515 8098 02.
Would also welcome relevant part numbers for COMAND-APS book 6515 6673 02 and Owners Manual 6515 1098 02 as well.
So far the dealer has been willing and able to supply any needed parts as long as I provide the part number, and the EPC has worked well for that, but I would entertain recommendations and contact info for a helpful dealer in the UK who might be willing to export a few select items to the US.
You guys are lucky, the European models make a lot of sense to me and others here in the States. Too bad MBUSA have skewed the US market by only providing over-powered/high-priced/over-complicated vehicles over here. I'm sure what they're doing makes business sense but it's difficult for a guy like me who likes a simple yet well made and affordable car. Wasn't going to own another Mercedes until the E220 came along.
TIA
