Hey whats up
I know this is a long shot but, I have my car at the dealer for some service work and I asked them to add this feature.
They just called me and told me they cannot find it.
Is there a mod number for this that I can tell them?

What the....? Fuel content mod? Never heard of such a thing. Does it tell you what octane you're running or....?

hmm.....well i know it tells you approximately how many miles you have left (range) but i also do know that is a rough approximate. i think i've driven at least 10+ miles when my range was on "0 miles"
if you figure out how this is done, let us know

yeah letting it go to E is not a god thing. i alwas go when the light comes on
letting the car go close to 3 to 6 miles can starve the fuel pump. This happened to another C32 i knew whose owner shrugged off filling up the car at the yellow.

That's correct. It's a version coding thing. I had NLBenz turn it on awhile back, along with tire monitoring, active fog lights and a lower radiator fan setting.Originally Posted by cannonball55

Tire monitor? The rims dont have TPMS sensors in them-hows that work?
Passive system based on the ABS/ESP wheel sensors AFAIK. Lower tire pressure = different wheel speed because of tire circumference.

hmmm...sounds like a recp for resets when it comes new tire time-
I had TPMS on my last 3 cars and honestly-(1) dont see the point-check your tires every week or 2 and (2) was annoying-especially come track day with diff rim set ups....kinda glad the C doesnt have it

I've had it activated for awhile now and no false alarms, only one actual alarm when a tire went flat suddenly.Originally Posted by rockjock

I added a Hella TPM to the wife's Audi and so far no false positives for that either.

I hate to bring up and old thread, but better than making a new one I guess...
Any update on this, I have the STAR diagnostic system but I do not knnow how to turn on the Fuel Content so I can see how many gallons of gas I have...or if its even possible on the C32, I know its possible on the C55.
Any one have any idea? Also, what the fan mod?

I'm not sure, what is that/ how can I tell?

Yes this can be done. It's one of many version coding options Steve@MBenzNL does. You may want to contact him
