- SL55 52 plate, Fully loaded, X5 sport
I have a 52 plate SL55 with massage seats, well at least I thoght I had!
I posted a query on them not working not long after geting the car and
Malcolm helped by suggesting they may have been turned off.
I have just had it serviced by a local garage (non MB dealership but one I trust)
They have said that the software ha been completely removed from the system as Malcom thought but inb addiion all the connections below the seat have been tied up sugesting that there was aproblem that the previous owner gave up on. My garage has spoken to the MB dealership who says this is probably a result of cost to repar being prohibitive and thereby the decision was made to eliminate the seats from the diagnostics to stop warning lights etc.
Does anyone know is this a costly job?
Does it have to be done at a MB main dealer?
I am reluctant to pay their exortionate prices and would rather go to a good independant.
Regards
