Ahhh bugger!

Thanks Joe, I'm kinda stuck in this age bracket, would you recommend figuring a bolt change into the cost or stick with MB warranty for peace of mind? anyone from Melbourne have any experience with cost for bolt replacement?

Engine serial number is 156985 60 060737 and is not affected. This is the closest car to the switchover numer 156985 60 060658 that I've seen so far.

Thanks again, Joe. The MB dealer is claiming the car has the 320 - multimedia package and ipod integration kit. The datacard you provided does not reference those options. Any ideas?

Best,

Rob

Disregard - the individual codes for the multimedia package are included within the datasheet (396, 512 and 810). Same for Premium 2 P02 (540, 600, 614 and 619).
