Seems odd to me. Why would they include that specific stage of production in the build/options list? And why that stage specifically of all the other stages?? LoL

Recalls and/or service campaigns range sometimes include production dates let us suppose MB takes it a step further (internally) to assembly location, time frame, etc.

Again, why this specific one included of all the production issues/ service campaigns etc.?
Seems out of place to be included in between all the standard features and options.
I have on mine too but dealer can’t explain what it is.
Sorry to distract from main purpose of this joyous thread.

And this surprises you? Ask them to pull Xentry VeDoc info if they cannot pull details on this particular sales code might you suggest they pursue VeDoc assistance from Mercedes.

Still doesn’t answer why they include this particular production issue in the standard features/options list. Isn’t it totally out of place? Might as well include all the other similar line items lol

This is like the line, "In a nice place like this, you would think that they could keep the snails off of the food!"

Nice build! How do you like the ride on the 21s? Trying to decide between 20s and 21s.

love it! The size of the wheels does not impact ride quality in my opinion and it adds to the exterior aesthetics. Give it such a dominating presence.
