Keyless Go/Entry Occasionally fails

pl626 — Sat, 23 May 2026 15:26:08 GMT

Ever since I bought my 2015 E400 Cab, it's had occasional fits where the keyless go and entry just fails and I have to use the 'old-fashioned' way to enter and start the car. I've never bothered to troubleshoot, as it's been infrequent and it resolves itself after a brief time. My key fob battery is fresh, and the aux battery is still healthy, but has anyone else experienced this or any ideas what's the root cause? I was prepared to troubleshoot today, but everything is working normally now. It's starting to feel like my old Land Rover RRC...

2011 E350 Coupe (C207) Looking for the MB part # for the cable that connects theiPod Nano 4th Gen to the female connection point parked in the roof of the glovebox (pass side). I've seen a few of different type cables on eBay etc., but there are more than a few part #'s and don't not know which will work. Would like to be able to control volume, playlists, etc, from the steering wheel controls if thats even possible. Thank you in advance. T

2013 E350 Cab brake job

I need to change the brakes on my wife's cab. Any weird gotchas or is it straight forward like most vehicles? Also, should I get OEM rotors or are the top tier Napa rotors just as good?
Thank you

Harman/Kardon system sucks? 2014 e350 coupe

Gunso — Fri, 15 May 2026 13:07:15 GMT

Not sure why but I cant find much to enjoy with the Harman/Kardon system. Just got the car and was disappointed by the system overall. I've tried surround sound on, off, EQ, etc.

Am I doing something wrong here? I don't love crazy bass in my music, but its either way too much and everything rattles, or none at all on low volume.
The highs sound nice, but either get ruined by the overbearing bass or shine too bright with 0 bass.

Please leave your current EQ settings for me to test out, I'm sure someone has this figured out!
Thank you

Thanks in advance, Steve

replacing lumbar pump 2017 e550

scmopar — Mon, 04 May 2026 17:35:59 GMT

I am unable to figure how to remove the left trunk liner to access the pump.

The mechanic can not get to it for 3 weeks, and I am somewhat capable.

I don't want to damage it.

I have the plastic trunk latch cover removed,
three push pins removed.
the front cover (covering the electrical components.

The rear of the cover pulls away, but near the strut, I cant get it to move.

Any pictures or instructions would be helpful.

Trunk lid won't open after removing for paint.

Hi I'm having trouble with my 2013 mercedes e350 coupe c207. I removed the trunk lid to prepare for paint. When I reconnected the wiring the trunk only opens with blade key. No keyless go, no drivers door button. And the back up camera is black when reversing. I checked the glove box for valet switch and there's not one. Checked fuses in the trunk sam and all good there. What am I missing? Thanks in advance.
