6000 KM's And Still No Problem's......

Hey guy's. Just reached 6000K and still no problems to report.

Allways use the Sunroof and the shade every day and not one problem.
Pulling to the right. NOT
No squicks or rattles.
Fuel gauge works great.
No problem with the fuel pump.
Brakes work great. (Trust me, had some close encounters)
Great sound system.
No pinging from the engine. (use 93 Octane)
No leaks.

Over all very pleased with the performance and the Build of the car. Good job MB.....

I guess Obsidian Black C230's are the best to get

"great sound system"? did you install your own, or are you hard of hearing and using the stock system?

glad to hear you aren't having problems. i'm at 2500 miles and the only problems i'm having is a squeaky spring in the driver's seat and some pops in some of the platic molding inside. nothing too big.

Some Canadian posted that you get all the perfect MBs, it must be true. I'm going to Vancouver for my next MB. Just hope I can import it in.

one problem

2800 km here on a Canadian version C 230 K and we've only one problem to report:

The passenger front window switch disappeared into its housing - it still works but is floating freely in the hole in the door panel, which makes it hard to use, plus it looks stupid. This little irritant will be fixed soon, and definitely before the first service, which the ASSYST system says is 12200 km away.

Anyone know any good lemon lawyers?

Sorry, it's got to break a few times for lawyers to get involved and since Canadian MBs are the best in the world it's just not going to happen!

I have over 4800 miles (about 7800 kms) and have no problems. Well, the driver's window has a small rattle if the window is down when I close the door. I use the roof almost everyday. A very few days it has been too hot to open it.

I buy my gas at MOHAWK in Calgary. They have 93 octane. I don't know if they have MOHAWK in Ontario?
