I simply don't understand why there is any confusion..........one clear point is that........THERE IS NOTHING TO BE GAINED BY DOING THE RECALL ECU REFLASH!!!!!!!!!!...........even if you believe that those of us that have these problems are just lying.

The hard copies I have show the af it goes off the chart. If any one has a fax machine I can fax it over. I am hoping we can fix this, but I have started looking for a 600 or 65.

Unfortunately, lease or buy, you have no choice on "flashing" the ECU's in these cars until you are out of warranty or you have some special "deal" going with your "stealer" of choice. They WILL provide the "updates" that apply to your car whether you like it or not. Add this to all the problems with my '06 and I'm even more convinced I should have kept the W210.

.......My local MB dealers states that if a customer des not want the recall work done, the customer can sign a waiver. This will pobably affect relevant recall work in the future, but so be it. I cmpletely understand your point about the W210. My favorite car is my 2000 E55k S8 modded with 450RWHP ad 506LBFT ofrear wheel torque. No issues. Car runs high 11's and beats up on stck W211 E55's. Up until now, I was wondering how it will fare against W211 E55 K2's, but now I know.

.........This entire recall fiasco is stupid on MB's part. They had loyal and happy W211 E55 customers shouting and carrying the MB/AMG fan club baner. They have now alienated these custmers. It is like stealing defeat from the jaws of victory.
