2006 C55 AMG
Hi!

Hey guys, proud and happy owner of a 2006 C55 AMG since August. Im from Charleston, SC.

She's had her bad days BUT we get along really well now. Changed out engine and tranny mounts recently, and have re-done the fuel filter and fixed a gas leak myself. These are brilliant cars, and quite the bang for the buck! Hope everyone has a great day!

2015 C63 AMG
Hello Again!

Hello everyone!

My name is Rebecca Haas and I am new to the forum. I just bought a Black 2015 C63!!! Super Excited!!

I'm thinking about blacking out my tail lights. Any suggestions? Should I black out the entire light or just the red parts?

Also, has anyone blacked out the orange side lights that are in the front? Or is there a company that sells them in black.

Any pics or ideas is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!!!

2008 E320 Bluetec
Became first time MB owner with 2008 E320 Bluetec

Hello,

I am Gamini form Princeton area in New Jersey, USA.

I just became a first time MB owner after finding the long waited 2008 E320 Bluetec. This car is a one owner with 116k miles and very well maintained. I am so happy to have the car for my daily drive 150 miles round trip to work. I have attached some pictures of the car as well as the service record of the last major repair so that I can get some expert opinions on what to expect next for repairs now that major repair ($5000 repair) is behind. Many thanks for reading the post and and replies.

The 86 S Class is one of the safest cars ever made. I have a friend who was rear ended by a pick up doing 70 MPH. He had 3 kids and a dog in the car with him. All were fine. Another W126 was hit by a train and all 4 doors still opened and closed. The people walked away from it. I have photos of the car hit by a train somewhere. If I find them I'll post them .

This always happens while in an intersection or trying to get into traffic. A few seconds of no power and you have some near misses with other cars coming at you. I took it back to the dealer in Sept 2012 and they told me they reprogrammed the motor and reprogrammed the transmission.....did no good. I was in Texas all winter with many many episodes of the loss of power problem.....also....the keyless fob sporadically will not lock the car, lift the truck or blast the panic alarm. THE CAR IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. So back to the dealership 10 days ago. I got a call today....we can't duplicate the problem. This is my first and last Mercedes and in the meantime what the h...do I do with a new car with less than 7000 miles on it when it is dangerous to drive. I anticipate the big long run around with the dealership and MBUSA all the while pretending like they have not heard of this problem previously.....they have....they just don't know how to fix it. DONT BUY ONE
Have you tried changing your comfort/ sport/ economy button on the shift panel to see if it changes anything when it acts up? Smother words change settings when it acts up and report back,,,

hello,
I'm Dennis from Wallingford CT, my wife and I purchased this 2006 SL55 AMG in Arizona last May and had it shipped back east, the car is a beast, love it, the car sat for the winter.
I had some issues with some of the electronics this spring when I got it going, I posted the problem on MBworld and the responses and help from the members have been nothing but awesome. I will continue to read and post on this site.
