Something wrong with my E320!
I decided today to clean and protect the dash with that Meguires dash and vinyl protectant... Anyways, so I take the car out for a drive and after, the turn signal stock has come loose with the housing so everytime I flip on the turn signal, the housing moves sideways (as well as the cruise control stock). Anyways, that's not the main problem... (BUILD QUALITY!?)
I tried to start the car a few minuites later, it fires right up but then dies, twice... I try again, started just like normal but the odometer reads 999999KM... Seconds before that it was completly normal. So besides the turn signal stock which is most likely build quality (
) the odometer reads 999999!?!?!?!?!?!?

BTW, I did take it out for a drive later and thew trip meter is supposed to count 0.1 KM which is every 100meters (metric system). Instead is gains every a tenth every 10 meters instead of 100 m. I'm really worried and confused.

The turn-signal arm getting loose is a known problem w/ the W210. YOu will have to take out the steering wheel, remove the steering column cover to tighten it.
While cleaning the dash board, you probably short circuit the instrument cluster (liquid get into it) and cause it to go that way. You might want to remove the IC and dry it up.
