Service Manual for GLC X253

Does anyone have access to service manual(s) for our GLC X253? I would just like to read some of the basics for DIY service in the future.

Sorry to revive an old thread but I'm curious as to whether service info is more readily available now for the DIY'ers?

Regards,

Ebay seller has DVD with a number of models, incl GLC.
Price I think is around $50. Looking to purchase myself, just not gotten around to it yet !

Hmmmm.
Copied from the eBay link:
Mercedes Benz GLC Class workshop repair service manual 2015 to 2016 inc coupe


GLC was new in 2016.
GLC Coupe is new in 2017

How does the manual advertised here cover things that didn't exist

(Thanks for the post. I also want a manual but don't really trust eBay).

Yes , your comment re Coupe is correct.
Either way I'll take a gamble and get one. We have a GLC wagon and next month will tale delivery of the GLC coupe. Hopefully it will be covered.
Either way I'll pay by PayPal and if it's not correct will seek a refund under their system.
I expect it will take around 3 weeks to be delivered.
I'll provide an update to this thread then if it helps.

Just to be clear I ordered the one above from the U.K.

The one I was checking out in the US is here. Just last night the seller confirmed it covers up to 2015 models but is 2016 software (whatever that means). He did not answer my specific question if the GLC was covered or not. It has some very negative reviews. It seems that some of them are struggling with software.

I couldn't find any reviews for the U.K. Option above so we'll see how it works out.

When I check compatibility (bottom of listing link) I get...
"This part is not compatible with 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLC300 4Matic Sport Utility 4-Door 2.0L 1991CC l4 GAS DOHC Turbocharged."

I did that as well and got same answer. I figured I'd ask as the "2016" in the description throws doubt into what it really supports. It's obvious now, from the seller and that list that the GLC300 is not included.

Received the thumbdrive today. ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/282309277447?rmvSB=true ) Took a bit to install to get working on my Windows 7 machine (it installs an Oracle VirtualBox VM image). The software is quite complex but considering it covers all models with a lots of ways of searching it looks really nice. This is for a 2016 but presumably 99.9% of it is the same for the 2017.

So far I've perused the repair manual and parts list. It also has all detailed maintenance procedures.

Examples shown below.

Hello,

I have a glc 350e SUV and want to place a diamond front grill and coupe rear fender flares. Can you send a picture of how to replace those parts? Is there a discription in the manual you have bought? Thanks a lot.

Diagrams look to be the same as the snap shots you guys are posting from the thumb drive bought on ebay. May just be easier and more direct buy.
