2004 ML350
Angry 2004 ML350 AAM and all computers question

My 2004 ML350 AAM went out and the dealer said they can't replace it because it is obsolete. So I have a perfectly good car that I can't use. Other than junk it, IS THERE ANY HOPE OUT THERE. CAN ANYBODY HELP ME TO GET MY CAR BACK UP AND RUNNING.

It won't start now.

G550
I'm the General Manager and all our cars are not marked up above MSRP

My name is John and I am the General Manager of a Mercedes Benz and BMW franchise. I have owned numerous Mercedes Benz's. Currently I drive a G550. I am a wealth of knowledge for anyone with concerns or questions. My dealerships also do not mark up our vehicles over MSRP. My philosophy is that is price calcium and it puts my people and clients in a confrontational situation. The back and forth makes it not fun for anyone and is exactly what most people complain about. If you want a a vehicle I will be happy to make it happen for you. I am looking forward to being member of your community. Thank you!

C43
Hi all.

It was a very bitter sweet day on 8/31 when I traded my '22 Genesis G70 for the '23 C43 AMG. So far I am really enjoying the C43 (the power AMG was able to get out of a 2L 4C is remarkable). The C43 is a very handsome car but definitely miss the unique look of the Genesis.

Pretty much got the exact spec I was looking for. Only things missing I wanted were the AMG Performance Studio Package and acoustic glass (also not sure why I don't have red seatbelts like every other C43 I've seen lol). Will probably order the carbon spoiler separately and pay Mercedes to do it or do it myself.

Anyway, happy to be a part of this community!

GLC43AMG
Hey all!

I have had Mercedes Benzes all my life. First one was a silver C300 back in 2006 then another in 2013 C300 then an ML350 in 2016. Now I just got my first AMG model 2019 GLC 43 AMG.
I may have been a member to this forum back in 2006. I remember being a member but forgot the email and login. It could have been another Benz forum who knows.
I life in Philadelphia area. I’m looking for local places to tune the car to make it go faster. Any recommendations would be amazing. Thank you all! - Chris

Loving my 2016 E400 Cabriolet

Thanks for letting me join this forum. I bought this A207 Cab in July and I'm really enjoying the driving experience. After owning several performance/muscle cars over the past several years, the luxurious appointments and refinement of this car are a refreshing and welcome change.

Looking for 2017-19 GTS
This is Todd from Portland. I am looking to replace my 2009 M5 V10, with a AMG GTs or C.
I would really appreciate the best place(s) to hunt for this car. I found and bought my BMW off of the M5Board. It was in Kentucky!

GLE 350

Greetings all. About a year and a half ago, I bought my wife a CPO GLE 350. We have been very happy with it so far. We are located in the Houston, TX area, where there is no shortage of GLEs running around.

My primary motivation was the safety factor for my wife, but anything I can learn here to improve reliability or DIY maintenance is much appreciate. I have already referenced a few posts from others, and I'll do my best to pay it forward for what I learn.

Pictures of my Wife's 1986 Mercedes 560SL

We were able to obtain this car from the Minister who married us in 1986. The car has only 92,000km's and it is all original except for fluids and tires. It is a very fun car to drive, when she allows me to drive it. She has a name and it is Saddie, thats what Renee(Wife) named her. So glad to share a liitle of her history with you all and look forward asking and being guided your help to keep her healthy and running top notch.
