If I remember my latest autospies mailing correctly it hinted that they still maybe at least a year away. Partially due to inventories and other commitments. Maybe somebody else still has the link for that article and can post it. My memory might be lacking since I've slept since then.

I don't think you will see it for the 2003 model year. However it will probably surface when the first batch of 2004 models are built.

I don't think we'll see it for 2004 either. I think the C will be one of the last models to switch from the 320 to the 350. I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't come until the new C in a few years.

Hey Matt230K.
Any news on that dyno mode you were trying to find out for us?

No, it seems like I'm never at work because my school schedule is so weird. I tried it once on an E-class I was driving and got it to beep after holding the button, but then I didn't get anything on the screen after that. Plus, I don't think I will be able to figure it out for your car. I don't know how it works, and it would be hard to figure it out by trial and error.

that autospies article is about the E. The E350 will not be out until 2004. You have to wonder if it makes sense to continue with the 3.2, when the 3.5 is going into everything except the C? You would think the economies of scale would make a single engine across the lineup more sensible.
