I've lived in DFW basically my entire life... but moved to MI 3 years ago. The hardware is headed my way to Ann Arbor, and then I'm sending right back to DFW.
Small world, and many kudos to @compaddict for making this all possible!
Just had a great WhatsApp chat with @BenzNinja who’s currently working his magic on ILS+ and ECO remember. @compaddict ships the hardware very securely.
Took a little longer than expected, because...German engineering. But, Peter / @BenzNinja came through, per usual, with the ILS+. And...he now has the coding on hand for anyone else with an E coupe/C238.
The hardware bundle will be off to its new foster home/my hometown of Dallas tomorrow. @Anu0129 - Please reach out to @compaddict or myself tomorrow (Wednesday) afternoon for your tracking info.
Great service all around. This is what enthusiast forums are for.
Hi Vince,
This is George (2015 S550 RWD). I would like to get in-line for your service. No rush, and I can wait until the equipment arrives back to you, so shipping may be less from Auburn, CA to Anaheim, CA. Let me know the details, and how you would like to get paid, and when you need the payment. Thanks, this is a nice service, especially for we Mac (non-windows) characters.
Cheers,
George Andrews (mobile 714-655-8035)

I'm about 50 min from you in Bloomfield. I have 3 cars that need programming.
I've been trying to get a few questions answered, but Benzninja is hard to get ahold of.
Can you let me know how long it takes and what he charges?
That works out well. The system is on the East coast and it's next stop is NYC.
After that it's heading to Iowa.

If I understand this correctly once I've signed up with BenzNinja I have to wait for the laptop and related software to be shipped around to everyone before I gets shipped to me? Do I have that right? How long does this usually take and is everyone happy with it?
My E53 is scheduled for 2D September 2022 so I don't think I'll see it much before Spring of '23. If I'm lucky. Not bad paying sticker for a '22 model and having it show up well after '23 has gone into production.
Yeah, you have to get with me to have the system shipped to you.
680.00 to my Paypal account and when the next user takes possession, I refund 620.00.
You are responsible for shipping to the next user. UPS, 900.00 insurance and signature required.
If the unit is not in the wild, you are responsible for shipping from me and to the next user..
If multiple people want to use at the same address, the rental is 60.00 per user.

Vince,
Sent you a visitor message cuz i'm being blocked from PMs on my phone (too new of an account?). Looking to jump into the queue. PM if you could, thanks!

I have two W212's to do and one W 222.
Wish I would've seen this sooner w/you being so close. Feel free to PM me about my experience, but the easiest way to get in touch w/ @BenzNinja is to submit your info through his website. That's his preferred method, and he's very quick to respond through that channel.
I just wrapped up a session with @BenzNinja this morning on my 2015 s63, his coding is legit and top notch. Some of my activated options below w/ description. Big thanks to @compaddict for getting the hardware all set up and coordinating the shipping/tracking.
ILS+ - Like everyone has said, the high beams cut out boxes around any affected vehicles. I have not been "flashed" at back.
Sign Recognition - Dash (speed gauge area) will display speed signage and other little things as you drive along.
Video in motion
Map update - Legit map package w/ codes. I was in major need of an update since I was on 2014 maps.
Seatbelt chime off
Remember Start/Stop mode last selected
Added Sport+ - 2015 s63 only had comfort and sport, raises shift points, pretty aggressive.
Start in Sport mode/Remember last mode selected - Now able to start in sport mode instead of default to comfort mode every time you shut off then restart car. I was considering purchasing the Renntech Valve controller but the coding to start in Sport mode opens the exhaust valves upon start. This essentially saved over $700 for the Renntech unit. You must have the "remember start/stop" coded to have this in order to work. While in comfort mode, shut off start/stop, switch to sport mode, now vehicle will remember to start in sport mode.
Overall, highly recommended, I was very impressed by his knowledge and coding skills. I opted in on the membership and will be purchasing hardware (computer, C4 unit etc) for future diagnostic use w/ Peter. For anyone with a long list of requests, you will have to get your hands on a good high amp charger/battery maintainer. My Noco Genius 1 to top off the lithium battery didnt cut it, Peter monitors the voltage during the sessions and will keep you updated as the coding goes. Communication with him is easy and scheduling service is hassle free. I was not compensated or offered anything for this review. Pricing is very very reasonable and I actually ended up saving money as a result of not having to purchase Renntech valve control.
AMG cluster, real cluster conversion by remote 200MPH dial or more
Head unit AMG
Video in motion + tons of other car in motion restrictions
Start and stop remember
Seat belt chime off
Reverse Gong off
And anything else you wish
As a previous customer, @BenzNinja is the real deal. When things didn't go as planned (my C238 was a new model for him), he made himself available at what was 3AM for him, to connect and ensure things worked correctly. And thanks again to @compaddict for the HW rental!

For anyone that's worked with @BenzNinja and had the same great experience I did...I just noticed this link in the picture below. This is unsolicited, but please click that link and add a positive review if he killed it like he did for me!
