'05 E55 Questions
Hi
I'm very close to travelling to examine an '05 E55 for purchase and have some quick questions:
1. Do all '05 E55 have the aux input jack in the glove box?
2. Do all '0E55 play Mp3 disks in at least the single disk
3. How does $71K sound for 7000 miles (Options = lights, ventilated seats, comand, keyless, 6 disk changer), claimed flawless shape (and pix look good).
4. Any thing to be concerned about/look for that is specific to E55 (known problem, etc)?
Thanks

My 05 E has the auxil. input. I think all 05's do.
I think that deal is great. New 05's were being discounted by about $5,000. But, as always, buyer beware.

a few...
I think 71k is a pretty respectable price. Just make sure it is in good condition, which I am guessin it is since it is still basically pretty new.
1. The aux port is standard on all 05 E's. I have it in mine and my friend had an 05 E class wagon and had one.
2. THe single disc does play mp3 cds. I have been doing it that way for a while
3. Price sounds good with the right type of options that you want.
4. No really apparent problems. Pretty solid car. Ive had mine 13k and basically no problems, except for the tires hehe....
Best of luck and if i think of any problems or find any for the 05s ill let you know.

some supercharger hose on my mom's e55 was leaking, causing the car to die suddenly, it took the dealer a while to figure it out.
drive the car really slow and see if that happens

06 has MP3 capability?
Hey guys. Just picked up my 06 E55 last night and it has the Aux jack but the menu on Command does not list MP3 CD like it does in My 05 SL500. Does that mean they have taken away MP3 CD capability for model year 06?
