Lightbulb GL Online owner's manual.

Hey!

I know this was posted a year or so ago, but the URL seems to have changed, so here it goes again. Lots of questions answered here:

http://www4.mercedes-benz.com/e/cars...iebsanleitung/

Perhaps we should request a sticky?

Exclamation

This manual seems to be updated on an ongoing basis. If you look under "safety", in the pic where they show the airbag locations, you can clearly see they have changed the pic to reflect the new , '09 steering wheel, so this should be a good, ongoing resource...

Thanks RBrenton, I'll have to catch you for a pivo next time in Kiev.

No issues here. It was down for a bit a couple of months ago but up shortly thereafter with a couple of revisions - maybe you just hit it when it was taken offline for a bit. The newer link works fine for me just a minute ago...

This sticky's dead for me, at the time of this post. (Wolfgang's ones do go to the links they're intended for, though.)

use any oil with “MB-Approval 229.5” printed on the bottle. Since this will be a full synthetic, viscosity is irrelevant. Nevertheless, it will be 0W-40 or 5W-40

2012 GL450
manual and engine oil

1) To get an operator's manual, google these words:
gl450 site:www.mbusa.com/vcm/MB/DigitalAssets/pdfmb

2) To see a list of names of engine oils, google these words with quotes:
"MB-Approval 229.5"
Ignore any hits that say "229.51." The word "approval" is important.

I tried Standuhr's link to the Owner's manual - they must have reorganized. It can be found as of today anyhow at:

Bttucker's link works, but only goes back to model year 2012.

Unfortunately neither of of these sites are working now:
www4.mercedes-benz.com => dead for many years
www.mbusa.com/vcm/MB/DigitalAssets/pdfmb => "404 Not Found" as of a few weeks ago

Sorry about the 2012 - wish it were different, as I own 1995 and 2001 MBs...

Would you happen to still have the phone adapter?
