eBay Service Manuals

Just picked up this set from eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/321638801515?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Covers all MB from 1986-2014, and takes up 40GB of disk space. I've been going through it, and it looks pretty complete for the C63 as far as I can tell. To be honest, it contains a LOT of information. I am still just beginning to dig through it. Contains EPC and WIS/ASRA, as well as a Mercedes Price List (as of Jan 2013).

Thought that this was a good deal, and wanted to let you guys know.

Cool, thanks for the tip. I'd seen this yesterday on ebay and was wondering if it was any good.

Awesome stuff! Here's a 2015 version with 6 discs for only $16.95:
Correction - this is advertised as 6 programs but it is on just 4 CDs.

Does it have wiring procedures and everything for taking the steering wheel off?

40 GB. Damn. That's hella huge. Anyone check out the 2015 listing yet to see if it's legit?

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
Wow, everything you would ever need to service a MB for that time period if it's legit.

It is legit. Really comprehensive - it is essentially the entire MB service manual that they use in the dealerships. Torque specs, exploded diagrams, part numbers, etc etc. It runs using VM Player, which means it's an emulator for whatever the system is that they use. Really very good, especially for 20 bucks.

And the 2013/2014 version I have is going to be the same as the 2015 listed above. Except that I've verified the auction where I got mine, and it's complete. Purchase the other one at your own risk if you really want. IMO nothing has changed for the C63 between 2013/14 and 2015 so why risk it.

Hey Guys,

Sorry I didn't see this post earlier but just wanted to let you know about another way to get MB WIS for only $10.00 US.

You can go to MHH Auto and register for their website for a one time fee of $10.00 US and the software is available there for download. You can also get updates when available

Mercedes Wis Asra EPC Ewa 2014 Service Shop Repair Manual Set Combo Pack | eBay
I found a very good eBay vendor but not a good useable set of CDs. Discs would not load to my PC. Vendor thinks they're perhaps corrupted. He offered a link to an online download of a 2013 version but I wanted the 2015 updates. I said thanks but no thanks and his response was an immediate refund - top notch customer service.

Has anyone else found a source offering what this vendor described as the "Newly modified Q1.15 (2015) easy to use interface for fast access and searching."?

Let's say I only want the info pertinent to a '14 C63, can I only download that? I really don't want to download 40GB of info, especially when 99% of it wouldn't be relevant.

2nd question, these are manuals and aren't related in any way to the diagnostic software that you can mate to the car via OBDI port (or whatever the port's called), right?

Thanks

Did you get the discs yet?
Is it working?
Did you need EPC or WIS Start Keys?

See my 2/14 note above. I've not yet tried a different vendor, would be interested in knowing is anyone else has found a viable source that includes the 2015 updates.

I've tried multiple times to register with MHH. I never get an email to finish registration, even with repeated requests.

Oh man sorry to hear that

I know that zcct04 just recently registered with them and didn't have any problems. Just a suggestion, did you check your spam filter?

If so, hopefully you will hear from them soon.

Sent you a P.M.

Yep, I always check spam regardless. In regards to your PM, thanks. I tried to use it and it appears to work, but it won't let me use the username I want cuz it's already in use... by me LOL. I sent a message to their webmaster. If I don't get an answer, I''ll use your link and just do a new user.


Regards,


Joe

I ordered the disc for my E55, can't get it to work. Vendor says he'll try to see what's wrong. Haven't heard from him in two weeks

I bought the 2014 one. Works perfectly. I had an older one which was fine but the interface has been improved significantly. Much easier to use now.

No unfortunately you cannot just select one vehicle. You have to install/load the whole lot.

Sure, ebay again. This is the seller and the product. It came as 4 DVD's and instructions on how to load it. It uses the virtual computer to run in since I believe it needs windows XP.

WIS is not easy to use. It is difficult to navigate. I used the older one once only, it was that terrible. The new one is average. Its annoying but you can eventually find what you need.
