2018 E400 4Matic Coupe
New/Used E400 owner

New owner here. I've had my 2018 E400 4Matic coupe for 5 days & loving it so far. Hoping to learn a few things here. My only issues so far are my HVAC vents are lose, like they kinda just float in the dash & aren't connected. Also having issues with the MBrace app registering my car. The car feels great though. I'm liking it a lot more than my Audi A7.

I don't have great pics yet, due to bad weather.

Enjoy in good health : )

As for the climate vents, are they all loose or one has a broken tab?

I appreciate it. 3 of the center vents are lose to the point that they just rotate in the dash. It's like they're disconnected from whatever givest them the resistance that holds them in a given position. If I angle one up, it just slides down, limp. They're still connected to where I can't just pull them out of the dash but move around as if they would come out easily.

I see, I understand then you need to use the pick tool linked in that thread to get it out, any wire automotive pick tool will do.

Ah, I see enjoy the car, it is a great car and MB are not making any more E coupe and with a b-pillar-less design which are usually found on ultra luxury cars like Bentley coupes and Rolls-Royce coupes. The CLE is a thing but not the same...
