C32 problems
Just a quick update on the problems I reported with my new C32. The drivers seat problem (no proper movement) turned out to be a failed hall sensor on the back and forward motion. Replaced and all fixed.
The pull to the right was fixed with an alignment, the installation of a 'spacer kit' and a new set of tires. Seems fine now.
The gas guage not reading full when the tank was has not been fixed - they are waiting for a sender unit.
In all the car was away for a week. The dealer loaned me a 2000 c230 and a 2000 e320 to drive during this time. I couldnt believe how different they were to the 2002 c class. Suffice to say I was very pleased to get my car back.

Neil, the only problem that I have had with my C32 is the bad fuel sending unit for the IP guage. Don't know when we might see it.
I had a C240 for a few days. It was a ride but a little down on power. The tan/beige interior has got to be one of the most prettiest at night. But like you mentioned getting back into the C32 is like another world.![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Good luck!

I know what you mean
I have a friends 911 for a few months and after driving it for a couple of hours I was so happy to get back in my C32. Its a MY '00 black car with black convertible top, and black seats.. tiptronic. Not impressed at all. I was expecting something very different with this model but it didnt deliver what I thought. Needless to say, I was very happy to get back behind the wheel of me C32.
