- 2004 E270 W211?
Hi all,
bought a newer car , don’t worry I have stayed with the MB and treated myself to a stunning 2006 (W211) E320, honestly it’s like new, i am so pleased with it! Bought the estate so A passenger can put my wheelchair in the boot and sit next to me rather than having to put my chair on the passenger seat in my old E270 saloon, what a difference! Having someone sitting next to me rather than sitting in the back like i’m a taxi driver makes such a difference, sort of makes me feel normal again!!
anyway, car is perfect apart from one little annoyance , once again and this is now the third E that I have had this problem with, the front 12v socket (ashtray) is not working, fuse has been checked and supposedly ok but still no power out if it, looking into the hole it looks brand new and undamaged. Any ideas please! I only want to run a small bluetooth fm transmitter to give me handsfree telephone which is quite important when driving on hand controls and over the MB bluetooth add on I can play music through it as well as unfortunately this one is not quite new enough for an aux input although it does have an aux option on the head unit.
once again grateful for the collective knowledge here and hope there is an answer
