Hello!

Just bought the wife a 2010 C300 sport 4matic. First MB for us! I will be doing a few things to it.

Will probably drop it a bit, get some summer wheels and put an exhaust on. Pretty cool cars for the guys that like to mod them.

I have poked around but havent been able to find a whole tone of information about ecu coding on these guys. Whats everyone doing as far as software to access the ecu`s settings? Is there even any aftermarket programs that allow setting changes and reflashes?

Cant wait to poke around a little (or a lot, lol) and get to meet a few folks around this neck of the woods!

I see that STAR appears to be MBs programming software. Is there anything else available thats not manufacture based?

With my M5 I am able to get in and do essentially what STAR looks like it can do. Is this an option with MB or does everything have to go through STAR?

I have been searching everywhere and simply can not find any coding programs on the market. Is that because STAR has everything locked down? Are the MBs ecu not manually editable?
