Ah, another problem: radio turns off
So tonight my radio keeps turning off. It is playing FM and suddenly the MB logo will come on, or the radio turns off entirely. And needs multiple presses to get it tor work again. This happened about a dozen times tonight.
Sigh... hate to guess, but no doubt the technicians will just say "no errors in the memory so we cannot do anything".
I did not use TeleAid because they would just charge me $10 to tell me that yes, their car has a problem and I should visit my dealer!

mw, this has happened to me one time, just stop the engine, give the car 5 minz, and then turn it back on

This time, even after three hours with the car turned off (we were out for dinner), on the return drive, the same problem repeated again and again.

Not just me
Just heard, the dealer called MB and they conformed this happens to others too. They need to "reflash the reset" he told me - I think he meant "write a new firmware version to flash memory". Will keep you informed.
