First problem with my c32

Damn, technology sucks when it goes wrong... The freakin seat was killing my battery so my car wasn't starting It happend twice in 10 days so thanks to the 24/7 MB service they saved me...

The seat was f***ing my battery because of a freakin fuse or something like that... Is it a problem that happens a lot? Am I better of changing my seat and installing a Recaro racing seat? Best way to save weight also

Now my car is running perfect with 185'000km thanks to great engineering by MB & AMG

Yes, this is a VERY common problem. Bad seat module. They should have replaced your seat module with an updated one that doesnt drain the batter. Make sure that before your warranty is up, they do both sides. Both sides went out for me and eventually I think have for everyone.

No, I don't think you are better off changing to recaro. I'm kind of partial to my two-tone (black and blue) AMG seats with seat heaters (yes, even in AZ they are nice)

The seat modules on the 202 did the same thing, they were in the rear doors and both sides let water in
