And what does that have to do with the instrument cluster help thread?

I've been breaking my head to find this feature on the IC for the W164 but to no avail.
The instantaneous consumption (mpg)!
My friend's 2011 ML350 has it while my 2009 does not. I have DAS Developer and have been poking around without any success.
I was looking at settings in the Reiserechner Block 1, 2, 3 and alles for the differences between his and mine but don't know what each of those entails.
Any hints?

Thank you for confirming. The other thing that bugs me is the position related tire pressures. I can get it to show up fine for a few hours, but after a cold start it will be substituted by the TPMS active message.
Can the firmware be updated via DAS?

@angelovAlex: Where did you get the list of PIDS?
I'm looking for one for W245, since my S211 has been scrapped. I suspect a lot of the PIDs are common, but it'd be nice to be sure.

Hi

The PID's are from a tool called XSMonitor, shipped with older versions of Xentry.

I have a PID file for the W245, I can decode that if you want me to.

BTW, I do speak to Alex. He is no longer an active member of the forum, but still works on the W211 platform.

I work on the W203 platform and have found quite a lot of interesting data.

I have some decoded PID files for both CAN B and C on the W211 and W203 platfrms. See here

Ask in one of the 2 sections titled "c63 AMG" (w204 or w206, depending on the year of your car, which we don't know....)
There, post your very own thread to get proper responses

You are correct. It’s a 2019.
I did start my own thread under W205 C63S section but looks like no one really understands what I’m talking about.

Your question is crystal clear but you’re spamming the wrong thread with this question. The answer is so simple and just a quick google search away that it really doesn’t need its own thread.

If any of you folks are planning to be at Black Hat/DEF CON Car Hacking Village/BSides LV this year, I'd love to find an opportunity to get together for a drink or cigar or something. This thread has warmed my heart.

Edit: This landed in the wrong thread. Apologies.
