Are you having any specific issues?

You haven't been getting a low coolant light have you?

When you say tune up you mean like checking engine stuff out or getting an ECU tune?

How many miles?


If you just got the car and wonder what has been done so far, try to get the dealership information (I had a keychain) and then call them and find out.


Start with oil change, then do some of the simple stuff, depending on mileage.

​​​​​​Good man!!! People always forget the cabin air filter and it DOES make a difference....Also it's not a bad idea to disconnect the battery, open the under hood fuse box, undo the release tabs, lift the fuse panel up and out, spray the back side with electrical contact cleaner then spray with corrosion inhibitor (MB fuse panels are NOTORIOUS for crusting up on the back side especially if the seal is not seating, takes 3min to do)

Go to Eurotech motorsports in Mahwah. They will get you all taken care of. Ask for Danek or Ryan. Best service and pricing in the area for all cars.

If you haven't already...

Reset your ECU.
The procedure to reset the ECU is as follows:

1. Turn the ignition key to the "on" position which is just before you crank the engine to start.
2. Press the accelerator to the floor and hold for 5 seconds.
3. Then turn the key to the off position but do not remove the key, then release the accelerator.
4. Wait at least 2 minutes, the ECU is then reset.
5. ECU is now reset and you are ready to get new rear tires.

The ECU reset procedure only erases the adaptive transmission and throttle settings. It does not erase any of the fuel, timing or other programming.

Also let the car fully warm up, do some spirited driving, then test it out.
