Sport+ makes them slightly more aggressive. In my opinion, the most useless setting for regular on-road driving a 2.0 diesel. Due to its exorbitant price, no one ever uses it.

The purchase of the vehicle has been finalised, and I intend to pick it up this coming weekend. I contacted Merc, and they informed me that the gearbox service is valid for 77,500 miles and does not have a certain duration. It seems like everything else is being taken care of. There's no need to be concerned because it comes with a year's guarantee. I recently drove a vehicle with significantly fewer mileage and the transmission felt the same.

To reiterate what has already been stated. Definitely more urgent and silky smooth in E when I've drove hubby's CLS220d and pressed the S button. Since it's a 69 plate, check out the adblue range (in the menus on the dashboard). Just for the purpose of collecting data, if you decide to buy one.

It seems like that's the box's default setting. Give it a shot

It has 69,000 miles and won't require a gearbox service for another 8,000 according to Mercedes, but it doesn't feel quick enough to have been remapped. Is jerky the correct term? While the comfort mode seamlessly transitioned between gears, the sport+ mode made shifting gears with a floored throttle much more noticeable than in comfort, where the shifts were hardly perceptible. Yes, even in sport+ mode, the other two cars were very comparable. So long as it comes with a year of guarantee, I might as well have it.

Is a map of it available? Has the gearbox been serviced? Is it missing one, or should it have had one? In sport, were you implying that every gearbox you tried was identical?

It was noticeably quicker shifting gears on my Sport+, though I wouldn't call it jerky.

However, my Night Edition 2022 does include sport, comfort, and environmental modes; it just lacks sport+. I wouldn't say it's jerky in sport mode, but the engine revs higher and seems somewhat less smooshy.

I have driven multiple AMG Line E220ds and am considering purchasing one. However, I would need some clarification regarding the following: in sports+ mode, the gearbox feels little jerky; is this intentional or am I missing something? I experienced a similar issue with the other models, but in comfort mode, everything is perfect. The breaks were also quite taxing for everyone. What else should I be wary of? Overall, it's a spotless vehicle. I will be moving forward with the purchase of a 69/1 Dec registration AMG Line Night Edition with 69,000 miles in the next few days. Thank you ahead of time.

Get ready. It is an extremely costly upgrade.

Your time in responding is greatly appreciated. That sounds like something I could try.

Enquire at Command.co.uk. You can get assistance from them.

Please advise me on how to install a heated steering wheel in place of the stock wheel on W222. I understand that a heated wheel and column stalk switch control will be necessary for this, but I would greatly appreciate any other suggestions you may have. The heat is always helpful for my arthritic hands. Many thanks

Reading the codes is necessary for determining the source of the problem, as mentioned earlier. 'Sensor mat' or front passenger seat occupancy sensor failure is a typical issue. One more is a broken seatbelt buckle. A defective electrical hookup beneath the front passenger seat is an additional issue. However, there are other alternative explanations. However, unless you're handy with a wrench, this is not a problem that a do-it-yourselfer should attempt to fix. (To test whether the error code returns, you might use a scanner such as iCarsoft to delete it; nevertheless, it is quite likely that it will return.)

It may be difficult to "guess" this without reading the codes, as previously mentioned.

This is a great response. Yes, it will last forever. Passenger presence makes no difference.

Is the alert always on? If the front passenger isn't there, it makes no difference. There are just too many potential problems; fault codes must be read.

Kindly find the snapshot attached. Can someone give me some pointers? Class 2.1 C-DI W204 from 2011 It was getting old spending so much on repairs. Hoping it's just a little issue that I can resolve on my own Many thanks

It's quite unlikely that I will ever consider purchasing it. Just like I mentioned before, cars end up on this island in the end, although I'm disappointed that it happened sooner rather than later. (There are some choice bangers floating around since we don't need a MOT or anything like that.) I should include in the DPF talk that the vehicle has not been driven more than 2.5 miles and has never been out of second gear since I took possession of it in August of last year. I attempted to resolve the dpf light by driving continuously up and down the new section of road for 45 minutes while maintaining high rpm in first gear, but it was unsuccessful. It has been really chilly here; for several weeks, the temperature has not risen over 6 degrees, and there were even lower periods before that. I'm going to start looking for a good scanner. Many thanks

I anticipate that it will be costly. How hot is it outside? Do you happen to have a scanner on hand? When the temperature drops below +10°C, the injectors and their back pressure become important. The pressure on the overflow rail is 10 bars. Additionally, starting can be a challenge if the overflow rail pressure valve is malfunctioning. Under freezing temperatures, one 2009 X-trail would not start due to two faulty injectors.

The feedback is appreciated. Do you have any ideas as to what could be stopping it from starting? Since it isn't getting off to a hilly or easy start, it appears to be receiving instructions not to catch.

It seems to me that the problems are unrelated. On several times, the DPF light has came on. However, after a bit of driving at 2500 rpm, it generally goes off. The EML has also come on a couple of times, necessitating visits to the neighbourhood repair shop. Not a single one of these occurrences has affected starting, and it continues to drive normally with either light turned on. I recall returning home from Stonehenge to Hertfordshire one day while both headlights were illuminated, and the vehicle operated as smoothly as though neither light had been turned on. I took it to my neighbourhood garage the next morning for a forced regeneration, and it began right away. About three years ago; I've owned the vehicle for seven.

This is a great response. I wish I had followed this procedure when the car was still running after seeing this video a while ago. We also don't have the same high-tech plug-in unit that the person is using, so it's possible we couldn't have done it. However, I appreciate the suggestion and will investigate this more.
