Get rid of non-active teleaid malfunction code

Is there a way to have the tele-aid not active malfunction to keep popping up every time i start the car? Its annoying as hell and I can only imagine how much MB would charge to activate it.

Thanks in advance

If I remember correctly, your car is still under warranty. They shouldn't charge you anything to turn it off. :0)

..........MD's official position is that it is a safety feature and they will not deactiivate it. You may be able to find a friendly dealer, but most of them refuse to deactivate it. TEleaid supscription is $290 a year. I don't mind Teleaid, but very much dislike the way MB is trying to force you to subscribe to it by displaying a malfunction in your car if you don't have it turned on.

AWWWW that sucks Goat's ***!!! That's got to be the lowest marketing tactic...what's next? All future mercedes will not start because you have to register with Micro$lut? That's ridiculous.

I was all about to cancel my teleAid racket.

Chalk up another one for me on my list of things that suck about my CLK!

Redbrick...who's not sure he likes his CLK anymore.

I'm not subscribed to TeleAid, but I don't have any messages popping up, so there must be something they can do.

TeleAid is something that should stay on for emergency purposes. Its just a matter of are you subscribed to their services for convenience options of satellite door unlocking, traffic info, concierge service, etc...

it doesn't hurt to ask your SA
