Car went in for its' scheduled service and they replaced the auxilliary battery... all working well now and the stop/start is actually functioning better than it ever has since I bought the car!!
Car is a 2016 S350d that I've owned for just over 3 years.
A few months ago, when opening and getting into the car, an audiable "ding" was heard and a yellow battery icon and "start engine" (or words to that effect) were displayed. This didn't happen every time and so I assumed it was just the...
Added another mod to my 2016 S Class....
My car had an ashtray.... I don't smoke, so the little drawer the ashtray sits in, is of no use to me, and was wasted space.
I had an idea and bought an ashtray off ebay that didn't have the lighter, but was just a storage space. Add to that a wireless...
Hi Steve.. apologies for the delay in replying...
I installed it myself. Bit of a job dismantling all the centre console etc. but it works pretty well...
Apologies... not been around for a while as I have been working down in sunny Clacton-on-sea :)
Yes, I fitted a genuine Mercedes towbar to my 2016 S350d....
not a cheap option as there are various items that need to be sourced other than just the towbar including two wiring looms, control box...
Sounds like it could possibly be an aftermarket addition for something the previous owner may have fitted... there are no switches shown in the owners manual on the right side, other than the main light switch
Do you have a photo?
Just checked and there is the ride height switch, but that is a...
That does sound like an amp issue... had the same on my 2006 S Class... the same started to happen on my 2010 S Class too, but this time, instead of just shelling out £700+ for a replacement like I did the first time, I removed it, took it apart and gave it a damned good cleaning as it was full...
I had the Mercedes ME adapter in my 2010 S Class and used to love the mileage tracking feature... it allowed me to track business mileage as it gave a download in CSV format that I could extract the necessary data.... now on my 2016 S Class, the feature isn't there (but I can lock and unlock the...
MB Dealers will have a service plan available (Mine is £40 a month on my S Class, I have had a service plan on my previous 2 S Classes, an 06 and a 10 plate)
Independents will be cheaper, but with MB service, you get the Mobilo reactivated which is a great thing to have. I broke down in...
I had issues such as the car not starting, glow plug light staying on for ages and then still not starting. I tried charging the battery overnight (which did help a little) but the relay and plugs solved the starting issues on both cars.
At Creamfields the other year, there were top end cars like Range Rovers that had their entire front ends stolen (wings, headlights, grilles, bonnets etc) , parked on a car park, supposedly with security walking around... they'll nick anything these days, even if it is bolted down (or on)
Have you changed the glow plug relay and glow plugs? I had starting issues on both my W221's (06 plate and 10 plate) and both were fixed with changing relay and plugs... not too expensive to get replacements either. I think the last one I changed them on, I got the bits from Amazon... (all Bosch)
