New member here, so hope this is not discussed elsewhere. The link to the 'Online Owner's Manual' sticky at the top of the post seems to be dead. I need some info on battery issues / potential replacement on my W204 2008 C280.

Thks !

Service Reset - 12 button Steering Wheel
I had a hard time finding accurate directions, so here's a short list of what to do on a 12 button steering wheel to reset the Service x Exceeded message:
  1. Make sure your speedo video display is showing the mileage message.
  2. Turn the ignition key to the first position.
  3. Press the phone answer button followed by the OK button and HOLD both until the speedo display shows : "Vehicle Data".
  4. Press the Down arrow button to select "Assyst Plus" and press OK.
  5. Press Down arrow button to select "Full Service" and press OK.
  6. Confirm Full Service as "Yes" and press OK.

Here is a link to a helpful utube video for 12 button W204s:

Hello everyone.... First of all I apologize that i am not that handy or savvy but slowly trying to learn doing things on my own. This thread is very helpful and motivating..

Being a new owner past 2 months of 2014 C300 Sport I am trying to change the Engine air filter which i believe as 3.5 V6 M276. Found multiple videos on youtube which should the M272s where you need to change 2 filters. I think M276 has only one. I tried to click on the links on the first page but for some reason the pictures were not loading even though i changed browser..

Can anyone please point me in the right direction to the current link or DIY with pictures. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance..
