Drove home from dealership yesterday, the car ran around 90 temp, is that ok? Lots of heat felt around front of car. Should I take it back? Other than that Love It! Just joined mbworld. Hello!

90C is the normal temp.. you must've had a car before that used a dummy gauge that shows 1/2 way at all times?

If you paid attention to the temp before then you would notice thats pretty normal. MB always run above the midpoint.

Thanks

Picked it up after ordering it from other dealership. This is my first benz, wasn't aware that it ran above normal. Thanks for the answers.

It's a couple of grand at the dealer. If you're doing it for show, so it looks built-in, contact your service advisor. If you actually need/want good navigation performance, then the answer is Garmin for a couple of hundred bucks, and consider an Arkon vent mount for good position on the instrument panel.

If you paid attention to the OP, you would notice he just bought the car...
