It's a sad fact for the USA (and Canada follows) that there is a "not invented here" problem.
If GM was touting what they had developed the regulations will be changed.

One of the members here seems to think he can help me get it coded for the light carving goodness if I can get a couple of programs installed on my Xentry/Dax machine. I'll keep you posted

I have a couple of questions.

I have these options on the datacard:
608 AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM SWITCH (IHC)

640 DYNAMIC LED HEADLAMPS, SAE, RIGHT-HAND TRAFFIC

The datacard if needed. Datacard

Is this adaptive high beam assist plus? Where it carves out the beam? Or is this like the older setup that just flips them from high to low?

Also it's missing the 360 camera. Has anyone ever added that?


What Style wheels are those? Looks like their easy to maintain for brake dust cleanliness.

Those are some of the nicer looking factory wheels I've seen on the w222. It always comes back to a 5 star

My 2018 pops right up in 3 or 4 seconds.

Is now the time to point out how truly INSANE it is for a car the caliber of the W222--ANY W222--to not have the Surround View Camera as frigging STANDARD EQUIPMENT???? Ridiculous!

I had this feature on my X5 F15 and never needed it. However, the W212 is almost 1.5 feet longer which blows my mind...

It was a local one owner CPO car. 41k miles I paid 48 for it. I think it was a touch high but I love the colors and it was clearly well taken care of.
