2016 E220 AMG Night Edition
Hi All, recently bought my first Merc,(wish i'd done it earlier) I've got a 2016 E220 AMG Night Edition Estate.

I absolutley love it, just a couple of bits that are bugging me
1. Rear parking sensors worked when i picked it up but now don't beep untl you are basically touching something. No error codes coming up when i plug it in.
2. When using auto park, it leaves it about a foot and half away from kerb.
3. Can only seem to find 20 DAB radio stations.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Sam

Welcome to the forum Sam.
Happy motoring.

Did you buy the car approved used from MB, if so give them a bell.

The sensors could be dirty.

Hope you get sorted soon.

Thanks All,

Unfortunatley not, couldn't find one in my price range, with the spec i wanted so bought from an independant dealer.
Even with the issues, can't see me ever going back to BMW or Audi.

Will try giving them a clean.

Thanks

Finially got to the bottom of the issues, basically the previous owner has disconnected the camera so now needs to be re-calibrated. This should sort all isssues out according to Mercedes technician.

On a side note its not distracted from the full on enjoyment of driving my car. Heres to a 1000+ mile journey to cornwall for the next week.
