konigstiger, please review this thread (link below). Is there a service bulletin for overheated Anti-Theft Alarm LED that marrs the finish in the dash when the light fails? If it happened to mine, I imagine it has hit others, too. 2016 E-350... Thanks so much...

.

Not aware of any bulletin request switch block (upper control panel) be replaced under warranty. EPC documents original UPC installed at production is replaced.

My 2011 E550 does this every so often. It only runs for about a minute or two then resumes normal operation. This is maybe just normal updating, but it seems to happen oftener than any normal channel changes.

My 2014 car has over 180k miles, so warranty is long gone, but reading about all those extended warranties on emission parts, anybody has experience how it looks on ULEV cars?
I have to spend $2500 on new DPF for my Bluetec, what comes with over >2 months wait for rebuild to come from Germany.
I have MI showing DPF replaced 60k miles ago , so something is very wrong with this situation and having "the brick" occupying my garage for 2 months is not making me happy. Even I am happy with it when it drives ;)

Cannot find 2014 service warranty with e250BT here is a 2013 copy (e350BT) DEF warranty is 8 years/80,000 miles. To the best of my knowledge no extended warranty.

Thanks. Knowing what to look for, I was able to find one for 2014 as well.
Seems only PZEV vehicles do have 10 years/150,000 miles warranty on emission parts.
Mine is ULEV and looks like 250 Bluetec was never PZEV.
Funny to observe maze of laws. What was in past called "California smog requirements" now is observed in 7 (?) states and the number keeps growing.
Meaning in any calendar year you can have E class build with at least 4 different smog requirements.

konigstiger 07-18-2018 05:34 PM

Yes found that also however, as mentioned e250BT in not listed.

Hi Konigstiger,
I recently bought a 2014 E350 4matic in October and it has a rubbing/grinding noise that comes from the right front end when I back up, I thought it was a clearance issue with the tires but my husband says the tire isn't touching anything when I turn. It has gradually gotten worse over the past 2 months so I'm not sure what it could be from. Do you have any ideas on what it could be from? Also could you please get the data card from my vin: WDDHF8JB7EA981175.
Thank you sooooooo much!

Visual inspection brakes, steering knuckle, axle for grinding noise.

benzeclass 12-26-2018 12:30 PM

Thank you so much!!! So it doesn't happen when I press on the brakes at all, its only when I turn a certain way and only in reverse. If there was something wrong with the brakes would it make noise when I pressed them? That may of been a stupid question but I'm clueless lol. I appreciate your help & input very much!!

Need to check complete area, keep in mind brake components can shift in reverse.

Hi Konigstiger, really cool how on top of things you are! May I put in a request for the Data Card for my machine? VIN: WDDLJ9BB5FA156055.

Thank you very much for the courtesy!
