I recall that when this topic was brought up before, someone had said that changing these settings affects performance only slightly but drastically reduces the fuel economy. To anyone who has had these settings changed, is this correct?

Not that I condone the use or the distributing of Pirated software but just think of what we could do with that. And I think Randy already said in a previous post that its a Mercedes dealer thing. It cant be given out to regular consumers.

I would think 5-7 hp for 15 min labor, it's not that bad.

Whoemever gets it can put it up on kazaa were we can all find it... i'm sure cables are easier to get.
I'm curious what mbtech thinks about this, as before he wasn't sure where it could be found or if it existed.

I guess I'm just used to working at a company that isn't that picky/greedy... We don't care who copies our software since it only works with our hardware.

It's too bad more companies are not like that, but I think the trend is going in the opposite direction.
Hey Kwik, just curious... What does the "Black/Black = Lemon" mean in your signature?

and what's the purpose of these settings again ?
to use lower grade fuel (which is what I want)
or to raise performance ??? (don't care....but I'll take it...but does it require the 91 oct fuel?)
thanks !

By the way, MBUSA implicitly denies that these settings (as well as Norway and AudioPilot settings) exist!

Dear Sir,
Thank you for your message.
Unfortunately there is no "fuel management setting" through the Star

Mercedes-Benz STAR DIAGNOSIS Software
Just go to your favorite search engine, and search for "star diagnosis". The first hit I got pretty much told me everything I needed to know; and that I wouldn't be getting my hands on the software.
Here's a link describing the software and cost:
