Welcome New Members
William, in Canada, more precisely Alberta. Not new to the brand (use to own a 1989 420SEL), but currently am with a new (to me) 1999 CLK 320 Cabriolet, and I'm sure I'll be learning a thing or two within these forums.
Starting with ..... why oh why doesn't it seem to be a definitive answer to a proper full scanner that works with OBDII and includes the needed 38 pin adapter! Well I'm still reading up on that one and maybe .... just maybe ... I might have the answer.




We bought a 2023 E450 All-Terrain Wagon. It's our third Mercedes, and we love it right out of the gate.
Hoping for many miles of exploring Canada.
Congrats on the new addition to your family Sir !




Espero aprender de todos.
Un cordial saludo

I currently own a W211 E500 4M from 2006, before I had a W203 C240 which I regret selling every single day but life goes on... First Mercedes I owned was a W123 and I totally fell in love with that car but unfortunately the engine was in very poor shape so I got a W201 with the 2 liter diesel engine.
Here's a picture of my W211:
Thank you!

I am in the UK and am on my 3rd E-class estate / wagon - my 2nd W211 - the first was a W210.
Wanted a car with 7 seats - not an SUV or people carrier / MPV - and E-class wagon / kombi / estate with the 2 pop-up seats in the trunk / boot is the only car I could find in the Uk that fitted the bill (and my somewhat limited budget!).
Current W211 is a 2007 with 140k miles, last 40k by me over the last 5 years.
Trying to look after the car as best I can as is daily driver family transport - but trying to avoid shop costs where possible.
I am not an experienced mechanic, but am trying my hand and learning (or trying to!) as I go.
take care,
K.G.
Great site guys...like wow. You've been a tremendous resource so far.
Thrilled to be here. Running a insanely optioned out (Red belt, AMG bucket seats, PE) Black on Black pre facelift C43 coupe and have been actively upgrading / obsessed for 30 days now.

You guys already helped me diagnose and replace the spent vacuum pump value with genuine volvo part and it had an immediate affect on making full boost
Bought Ancel BZ700 scanner

I added red paddle shifter extensions but I think Im looking for real magnetics and would like to have them painted red.

New to the forum but have been driving a 2005 E320 for a few years now. Love it!
My business partner is selling a couple of old 300D 2.5 Turbos in running condition but I haven’t been allowed to post in the marketplace for some reason.




New to me a 2019 C300 4Matic very well optioned.
Coming from a 2019 BMW 330xi Touring (Wagon) that unfortunately drowned in the recent floods.
About 2 weeks into it, loving it so far.
Wish things it had;
- Heated steering (currently has the flat bottom)
- Side bolsters adjustability (loved it in the Bimmer, hugged you tight)
- Brown interior - LOL
Looking to do;
- Lower it a bit more even though it already has sport springs from factory (advise on wagon specific springs is appreciated)
- Front lip (facelift versions seem to have less options)
- Bit more aggressive rear diffuser
- Small wing
- 18/19 Strong and Light Wheels but Merc offsets are so high that interchangeability is difficult despite VW/Audi/BMW all being 5x112 ET 66.6
- Possible valvetronic exhaust (not spending armytrix money though)
I'm looking to do a few more mods so I'll need info as I'm new to the MB world.
Cheers!
Just leaving the Dealer
Love the Tan interior with Black Exterior.

That tan/brown interior is drool worthy for me.
