Earlier it was mentioned to follow these steps

1/ enable tyre warning in the EIS
2/ menu now appears in the ESP.
3/ enable the warning in ESP
4/ now you must remove key from ignition totally
5/ put key back in
6/ reset cluster in actuations or code something again.
7/ drive 60 miles or 100km
8/ enable warning in cluster menu behind odometer

However, I don't know how to do step one. I have the instructions for step two and above, but not step one. Can anyone help me out please?

Yeah this one is undocumented and only works 2002 and later.
Benzmodz can you help me out on how to do step one?

Try to do step 2 first then step one should appear. I had a similar issue and I belive that is what I had to do to get it to show up in the EIS.

I tried to do step two first but it does not show up in the ESP menu. Someone has to know how to turn it on the EIS?

That is what I initially tried but "tire pressure loss Warner" does not even appear.
In an earlier post someone said they experienced the same issue, and then someone mentioned that turning it on in the EIS was the first step so that it can appear in the ESP menu. Their are so many menus in the EIS that I don't know where to begin. I am looking for the procedure to turn it on in the EIS so that then I can activate it in the ESP.

I had the same issue so I know that just trying to remember where the setting is go try the Instrument Cluster that seems to stick out in my mind. If not just go through the Control Unit Adaptations lists on both the EIS and ESP and also in the Instrument Cluster and you will find it unless for some reason your pars are an older model such as with my 01

Something Slow
it possible that your car could be an 2005 but has a 2004 SAM that's probably why you don't see the option. I'm guessing you are from a different Country From USA.

3) enable directional fogs when turning

1) remove speed limiter
2) show litres remaining in fuel tank
3) enable directional fogs when turning

Any other mods people can recommend?

I've been unable to reach Sunman or Karo, who seem to be the most knowledgeable members here based on my attempts to search. Thanks in advance.
I HAVE DONE ALREADDY THE 3 ONE AND THE FIRST

ADD ALSO THE PADDLES THE TPMS AND THE NEW INSTRUMENT CLUSTER OF CLC 2008 LOOK

Ok, so if someone is still struggling with tire pressure warner.

I have a 2005, and I didn't see Tire pressure warner in the ESP menu.
This is what I did:

Body -> EZS -> Control unit adaptations ->
Read coding and change if necessary ->
All codes ->

Scroll down to 2nd screen and enable 'Tire pressure loss warner'
Then carry out the coding

I then removed and inserted the key.
After this the TPLW menu item appeared under ESP

Now, I haven't driven 60 miles yet, but I intend to test it somehow after that...

can this be enabled on any 2005 c230 or it has to have certain factory features to enable this option?

Any idea where we can enable the convenience feature on a facelifted 203? I want to activate the radio to scan through memory as opposed to scanning through frequency as it is right now. I know the 2006 and 2007 have this feature enabled. Anyone know how to enable it?

jpman the AGW software won't allow this feature even if you do enable it and is like this on the 2005-2006 MY; before I sold my 2006 that I was flipping I was looking into this.
The best option if you wanted to do this would be to get in touch with Mackhack and see what he can do through his contacts at MB. The AGW software can't be updated via DAS normally (I tried) so perhaps Mackhack can get some CD or another way to update it like the NAVs.

Well I now have a 2007 c230 so hopefully this won't be as hard as the 05. Question, I can't seem to find the menu path to enable active cornering lights. I have searched all over the forums. Can someone provide me the steps to enable that?

Thanks!

Its in the Front SAM. If you can't find it I can fire up my DAS and step through it again.
