Have you had any 209s/211s non command cars come in for the clocks not keeping proper time? Can the star laptop make the clock run faster/slower?

Thanks

 

If you are talking about the 211 "non-Comand" then it will be with Audio 20 or Audio 50 APS (or maybe in USA there are different audio systems?). There are some issues about that, especially for Audio 50 APS.
If you are talking about 209 you can compare it to the 203 because the electrical/audio system is about the same.

 

Does audio 20 or 50 effect the clock? The reason I mentioned non command cars is I've heard that the clock can be syncronized to the satillite in command cars allowing perfect time keeping.

I wanted to know if you have experienced any 209, 211 or 203's without command that have clocks not keeping good time, either running fast or slow?

Also if you can adjust the clock to run faster/slower using the Star laptop?

Both myself and friend have to new 209s without command and our clocks are losing two-three minutes every 3-4 days, my friend's indstrument cluster was replaced for this problem two weeks ago and the new clock is still losing time.

 

209 with VIN number between 040340 and 045255 may have bad instrument clusters.

If it's the same problem after instrument cluster was changed it means that they've changed it with one from the same production (I don't know how to explain in English, but maybe you'll understand what I mean), and they should replace the instrument cluster once again.
On many MB parts there is a sticker with a "Q" and a number on it (this is the produktion-version, for my English: see remark above), and the soft- and hardware version can be read with the Star Diagnosis laptop. So your dealer can compare both instrument clusters.

The car is under warranty, so it should be no problem.

 

Thanks for the info. My dealer is telling me that there is a CD update for the clock, is this possible?

 

update CD exists for almost a year and is for 211 with navi.
There is also another CD for certain problems but again for 211.
There is nu CD-update for clock issues for 209 that I am aware of.
