This place is a joke.
You can uncode it with a STAR system.

Awesome.

Can you advise the procedure for doing that by any chance?

Don't remember 100% without going through STAR myself, but...look in your IC (instrument cluster)/control unit adaptations/read coding and change if necessary/tele-aid (change to not-present)

If that doesn't do it also do the same for CGW.

If you have an MB phone system/bluetooth puck check to make sure it still works after these changes.

Control Units > Body > CGW (Central Gateway) > Control Unit Adaptations > Read Coding and Change if Necessary > Telecommunications > Telematics Service “Tele Aid” in combination with MOST technology

Change the coding from PRESENT to NOT PRESENT

I need this done to my car, started doing it last month of driving. It comes and goes, sometimes it doesn't do it, sometimes it does.

Had my Indy do it (turn it off), so nice to get into the car without seeing this message pop up.

Did your engine frag on the 10.6 pass?

I am sure that is it. Way to much face pulling, head snapping, axle twisting torque.

Thanks for the DIY, Should put it in the STAR DIY thread, I love not seeing that pop up, and it turns off the annoying glowing red SOS light

Mine just popped up with this. I'm assuming the star system is one which would plug into the car not something I can do from within the car?
