Please post more data on the FSS. Mine doesn't seem to be flexible at all. It indicates service C at 11156 miles on odometer and counts down at precise 1 mile per 1 mile driven. I have ~5k mi after 7 month. (2003 E500)

If possible, please post a list of ALL bulletins with corresponding numbers that pertain to the '03 E to date. Scanned copies would be best.

Seperately, "lack of power" bulletin P-B-07.00/28a - I had my car in for service and they told me that a CD had to come from MB for reprogramming. This CD is unique to each vehicle. It's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard from them. Same visit, windows & door seals for all 4 doors were ordered to solve wind noise - also not received yet. Is such a long wait common?

konigstiger,


I had the "lack of power" bulletin P-B-07.00/28a updated on my car about a month ago. I may be wrong, but I never heard of this update being vehicle specific. I got my E500 updated within 3 hours from dropping off the car.

Good luck!
