Xentry mods

Hey guys, I've just got a xentry/star scanner and was wondering what modifications I can do to the car? I've already removed the speed limited but would like to know how I can change the very unresponisve mushy gas pedal on my 2004 clk320. Would also like to know if there's anything for performance on doing something towards changing the rpms. Thanks

Interesting. Never knew factory speed limiters could be disabled with a few key-strokes on a scanner.

not a $9.95 Walmart scanner

requires Star system or clone

I did same but haven't been able to verify yet

ran out of freeway (and *****)

Gas pedal response next on list. These cars are great but somehow my old V8 muscle cars felt more alive, despite higher trap speeds and lower 1/4 times on the CLK

There's not much you can do about the drive-by-wire throttle lag. You can do a throttle recalibration, but that's probably not going to give you much love. If you really want to fix that problem, get yourself a Sprint Booster module.

3 years ago when I first got STAR, I found an option to enable the car telling me how many liters of fuel are in the tank. It gets displayed above the range.

I cant remember the name of the setting so Google is your friend.
