Hey guys, gals and those maybe in-between. Just recently bought an 06 e350 with the amg appearance package. Love the car, saw it across the highway for sale and bought it half an hour later. Car looks great, runs great and minus the annoying hum from the chopped tires it sounds great. Well, it could sound better with a little louder exhaust, but oh well. Anyways, yesterday while driving i turned at a light and goosed it a bit, stupid move on my part I'm sure, but I'm a simple creature.. Anyhoo, after the wheel turned straight my radio cut off, "display malfunction" and "srs malfunction" messages popped up in white. The cooling fan is now running full blast, which is nice and loud. Also, not sure if it's related, but the keyless go is now working intermittently and there is no buzzer reminding me to take my keys, and the beep from locking the doors has also stopped. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else. If anyone could give me some advice/tips, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance

Welcome to MBWorld and grats on the new to you w211! Sorry to hear about your issues though. Sounds really odd. Would suggest you try posting the situation to the w211 subforum though to get more eyes from people who also own the same model and see if they have any thoughts

Did you change the batteries in the key fob? Welcome by the way. Did you check to see if the balance shaft problem had been fixed? There's a long thread about it. All 2006 are affected. Also not sure if you got a warranty with the car, but you may need to take it to the dealer or an independent mechanic that has a star diagnostic system to get it scanned and that will tell you what's going on with the car.
