- 2005 C270CDi Avantgarde Estate. Bought 2005, sold 2022.
No way I'd buy one at that price!I have never used this before m8, and take delivery of the car on Monday, but the version in it was version 3.0 All I asked them was to update the software.and reading threads here there appears to be certain things in the system that requires activation by the dealership....Glad you can afford a spare at £295 Ha! Ha! Ha!
If you haven't picked up the car yet then perhaps the dealer could update the system using a disk from a car they have in stock or a demonstrator etc - as you've noted several models use the same disk.
Then you can pop yours in and all should be well, as the system will already be at the same level of firmware.
It might be easier to persuade them to do this if you haven't paid in full for the car yet!
