I'm also surprised nobody mentioned dyno mode...

Bump.

- Does the headrest movement work in the 05 230 SS?

- What dyno mode?

What is Dyno mode? While your right it has NOTHING to do with normal driving, when I decided to get my car Dyno'd it would be pretty handy.

Thanks

There are several threads on dyno mode and how to access it posted on this forum. Make sure you pick the correct one for your MY.

The empty button trunk feature works.. But first you have to dip your key in toilet water for aprox. 15 seconds..

THe trunk button works and you don't need to dip it into the NaCl (aq). The button is there on the ciruit board, if you know how to remove the batteries, than you can check this, after you remove the batteries, simply slip the circuit board out and lookfor yourself. There are 4 buttons on the board that correspond to lock, unlock, trunk open and panic, although panic does not work without the alarm. Well at least panic does not work for me and I don't have an alarm.

another one of my peeves with MB. my 1997 C280 Sport had digital climate control with the REST feature. my 05 C230WZ has analog (dual zone although) CC with no rest...

but, here in so. cal., REST isn't a big deal anyways...
