Thanks for the warm welcome. Just picked up my first MB. Coming from a Lexus SC400, BMW E34 525i, Lexus 2GS300, and a Volvo S60 2.5T. And a dozen or so Jeeps, from lifted on MTs to lowered on UHPs.

2011 E350 Sport and 1987 190E 2.3 -16V
New Member

Hello everyone,
I'm a new member and just wanted to say hello.


Recently surprised my wife for her birthday with 2011 Artic White E350 Sport. Very nice car. She drives it and I take care of it. I love Mercedes Benz since my first which was a 1986 190E 2.3 -16V. I also have a 1987 190E 2.3-16V which I plan on restoring in future.


So far on E350 I had one issue where my back up camera would only show a black screen.
Took it to a respectable Indy in Charlotte, NC and they fixed it by replacing burnt out power supply. $425.00 was total bill.
Otherwise than that my wife and I have been on 3 trips and car is rolling strong. Oh yeah I've ordered LED parking light bulbs from AZN Optics to replace stock bulbs. I added some pics. For some reason a few of them came out sideways. Sorry about that.

I personally prefer site-specific Google searches. So search "site:mbworld.org...subforum search topic" in the search engine of your choice.

1999 E320, 2001 S430
Newbie checking in

Hi everyone! Two weeks ago I bought my first Mercedes-Benz, a 1999 E320. Unlike many of you I didn't go looking for a Mercedes, but when I found it I had to have it. There's two major things wrong with it: the sunroof won't open and the A/C doesn't work. I can live with the sunroof, although I want to get that fixed, but the A/C is another issue. Turns out it needs a new compressor and evaporator temperature sensor. After seeing what the shop wants to replace the sensor I've mail ordered one and I'll do that job myself (one shop, which used to be my favorite independent shop around here, said the sensor was buried in the dash and replacing it would be six hours of labor. I can only hope they were mistakenly quoting replacing the evaporator, not the sensor). Meanwhile I'm shopping around for a better price on the compressor.

Anyway, I've already replaced the windshield wiper, air filter, cabin air filters, activated charcoal filters, and blower regulator. My wife says I didn't buy a car, I bought a hobby!

Hey, how come I attached a photo and got a thumbnail while everyone else gets the actual photo embedded in their post?
