New owner of a CLS55 AMG.. how to clear "service D" indicator on my dash?
Hello all,
For starters, I am new to this forum- so please be gentle
I am a new owner of a white/tan 2006 CLS55 AMG.. what an amazing machine! Only 20,000 miles, and I purchased her from the original owner. It's got a pulley upgrade and some ECU tuning done to it already, so it's even more fun than a stock CLS55
Everything is great, but this "service D" indicator on my dash is really bugging me.
How do I clear this code? I just changed the oil myself (5w40 Mobil 1, MBZ oil filter, and replaced both drain plugs/copper washers), along with inspecting everything else on the vehicle- everything looks great.
Could someone post up a DIY on how to clear the "service D exceeded by XXXX miles" on my dash?
Thanks in advance!
-Allen

I called my local MBZ dealership earlier today, they said it would take 30 minutes to 1 hour, and would cost $100 to clear the code. I thought that was ridiculous.. so I posted my issue here. All it took was 30 seconds!
Thanks again.
BTW, if anyone is wondering, I picked her up for $46,000. The original asking price was $58,000... but I did quite a bit of negotiation. Money talks!

m_berman- I searched on EBAY, but found nothing. Could you possibly direct me to a link where I could pick up a hair of white lenses? The orange really is an eye sore to me too
I bought the car from a private party. The dealers that had similar cars (year, mileage, color combo, etc..) were selling in the $60,000 range

nice deal on the car! I am looking for one myself (silver w/ tan interior, kind of hard to find I guess for a good price at that)
Did you purchase from a dealer or a private individual? And if a dealer, was it a benz dealer?

Good luck mercedes actually advises you not to order silver with tan. Unless this was a special order car it will be hard to come by.

Fast cars in general....
Wow, that's the car my friend just sold. Congratulation on your purchase and believe me you got a deal of the year. My friend one who sold that car still talks about it everyday... He really misses her...

Seems like the more research I do on the forums and on the web, along with hearing info from various dealerships and sellers- I guess this was truly an amazing deal.
The previous owner really took great care of this car, and I look forward to doing the same for years to come.
The front amber turn lenses are going to be replaced very very soon- thanks again for the link and for that tip!

For me, tan interiors make the car look roomy and spacious...and along with a nice wood trim creates a nice soothing environment.
Black exterior is just hard to keep clean for me...and it looks awful if it's not clean. Otherwise I do like the black exterior/tan interior combination.
