Check Engine light @ 1,300 miles!

I checked the typical gas cap culprit and suprisingly, that wasn't it! Has this been happening to others? Car seems to be running fine. I'm going to bring it in next week and will report back here.

i had that happen to me before too. However later on, the actuation module broke. This may be far-fetched from you. But that's what happened to me. You can bring it to the dealership to check it out if you want to be safe.

It simply needed a software update. I also had the dealer replace my hood emblem and remove those annoying "blue efficiency" tags on both front quarter panels. MB actually eliminated them from the '13 models as well.

Especially on my blk / blk car w/ 35% tint all around. It stood out like a sore thumb! My dealer told me that people complained about them so much, that they were eliminated from the '13 line! Major complaints were being questioned by others what it means (which I have experianced) and the look in general.
