Very nice, but you bought from the wrong dealership!

What do you mean by "investigating" the BT?

E550 coupe CPOs seem to be pretty rare. Besides, I like the "free" car wash

Investigating BT: My iPhone works as a phone but I want to also stream audio via Bluetooth. The engineering menu lets me enable this and it works both as an audio source and as a phone until I switch off the ignition. Thereafter it works as one or the other unless I re-pair. A firmware update for COMAND may solve this or I may need to investigate the $300 Media Interface Plus (which may not in fact work the way I want it to...) or something else.
Owners of 2012 models don't have this issue: it just works as I found on my C class loaner.

Interesting, have not heard this yet, but will keep my ear tuned for talk of it. I know that the BT can be a bit funky depending on what phone you have; for instance, some Blackberry phones fail to pair on the first try, and require a second go-round.

Also, we have free washes too, you just have to call ahead and sign up. And when we open up our new dealership next year, it will be a self-service like Barrier.

No hate though, I used to work at Barrier too. After all, it's about the cars, right?

Depends on if you go up to Pike Street or down to Airport way. Ed Wagor is on Pike, and John Shepard is down on Airport Way.

Gracias, airport way, done and done.

I need to get TMPS sensors in the HREs, and I'd like to talk to someone about BT.

9am-6pm, we'll be here. Make sure you pop in and say hi too, would love to check out your wagon. My guess is that it hauls a whole lot more than kids and baseball bats
