Hello,
I have a 2011 E350 and I am enjoying it. My last few cars have been Audi. In my Audi, I could have radio presets for AM, FM, and satellite all on the same screen. In the Benz, it seem that I must have a separate preset list for AM, then another for FM and a third for Sat. Is there a way to combine them ?
Second question: Which vendors offer the best DIY oil change kits (oil, filters, drain plugs, etc.) ?
Thanks,
Tom

I totally get your frustration; in the Bimmer, you can program the buttons to have a wide variety of functions (i.e. 101.5 FM, Navigation to Home, Sat. Ch. 32, 85.4 AM, etc.). But unfortunately in Mercedes, each function has it's own list of presets, so there is no "direct jump to function and channel" method.

No way to combine them unfortunately. I end up just using the number pad to dial in the preset I want. Thankfully I don't just around between AM, FM and sat.

Take a look at this thread, I detailed what I did for my B service last year. That included the oil change using suction through the dipstick.

I use a Mann filter available from Amazon, and the oil is the mobil 1 0w40 from Walmart. I don't need crush washers suctioning it out.
