  1. It appears like they used some unique materials for that kit; could someone confirm that? It's hard to believe I didn't find it earlier; it appears to be of high quality. Their website doesn't specify anything about that kit.
  2. Compared to other configurations, this one is really straightforward to comprehend and implement. The Garmin box seems to have some built-in features, however there is no canbus warning or anything like. The only accessories included are the Garmin rear camera parts. You won't need to run any more connections; the video shows you how to deliver wireless data to a Garmin device from behind. Even though the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) method is preferable, this works well as a simple back camera option, therefore I would go for it.
  3. I got the NTG 4.5 audio 20 unit no (command) since it's the cheapest system for this car, but I had to read a lot about retrofit rear cameras for W212 models because mine didn't come with one. Then I found out that it's not even possible to retrofit the original camera system with MB parts. After doing some digging, I came out an aftermarket module on AliExpress that ought to make it happen. However, I decided against that as there was little information available on the subject. Retrofitting the original camera from MB is possible with a command system, but it's a bit of a hassle and can be expensive. I came up with this system, basically. command system for MB's initial retrofit - The China wired kit -External screen-equipped wired kit - GPS-enabled wireless display I went with the wireless Garmin option that includes a GPS screen because the original GPS (Becker) is so useless and expensive to update (100€). To be honest, I could have saved money by not buying the GPS screen alone because I could have used a decent GPS. I appreciate certain aspects of this. One device with both a GPS and a camera. Very simple installation; there aren't many wires to go inside the vehicle. From the exterior, it appears to be OEM, and the quality is great to the touch. It will save you a tonne of time and effort without requiring you to alter your current setup. Reverse side of this remedy. After shifting into reverse, the screen takes around two seconds to load, and the image quality might be improved. Adding another screen may annoy certain people, but it doesn't disturb me in the least. S$100,-Garmin GPS Camera from Garmin 150€ Feel free to ask any questions you may have on this Garmin system or any other solution, and I will try my best to answer them.
  4. This happened to me twice, but each time the problem was with the LED light controller (water ingress), not the headlights themselves.
  5. I can provide information regarding my Hyundai Tucson, which is equipped with the HDA capability, and my eldest son own a similarly equipped KIA EV6. HDA operates quite well on both vehicles. I recommend that you schedule an appointment with your selling dealership and elucidate the issues encountered with the HDA engaged, as it should not function as you have described. If you purchased the car as new, you have the option to reject it; the procedure is available online or through Citizens Advice.
  6. Is this the appropriate piggyback fuse holder? I am quite perplexed by your remark on a modest profile.
  7. Hello, what size piggyback fuse holders are required for the glove box fuse box fuses? I have ordered a 2022 automobile but have not yet picked it up; I intend to install a dashcam once I have brought the car home. Thank you.
  8. Given the several problems, it appears to be a power supply issue. You are at the wiring diagram section to verify the power supplies from the CAS and JBE, as that is where the power for the various modules in the vehicle originates
  9. I understand your perspective and your justified caution. My perspective is that a car valued at over £60,000 is unlikely to be test-driven by seventeen-year-olds, though I may be mistaken. According to TDudette, the running nowadays is not really necessary.
  10. The code provided by the machine would be beneficial.
  11. Do you own an extra wheel? A jack would only be provided if a spare wheel was available.
  12. Thank you for the kind welcome and the advise; I will certainly follow it!
  13. I believe you may be correct; I suspect they are not the original hue. In some areas where chipping occurs, a raw metal finish is visible underneath; yet, a few minor chips reveal a glossier silver appearance. Regrettably, I am unable to locate any wheel colour references on the internet VIN decoder websites. I have requested a report detailing the car's original specifications from Mercedes, but I doubt they will provide it. Let us observe! Thank you for the information.
  14. Thank you for providing information; I will investigate the possibility of extracting it from the VIN. Thank you very much!
  15. Greetings to everyone I have recently acquired my first Mercedes-Benz, a 2016 C220d, and I am quite pleased with it! The former owner said that the wheels were a factory hue, but I am uncertain. I intend to get a touch-up pen. Is it a regular factory colour? Does anybody know the formal designation?
  16. A common error with BMW parts schematics.
  17. I would assert that option number two is preferable, considering the configuration and routing of the wire.
  18. Both malfunctions pertain to a single sensor. The heater circuit will be nonfunctional.
  19. Could you provide a comprehensive explanation of how this works? Will I lose any configurations, such as settings? I prefer not to reconfigure all my settings again. Or is it only a reboot?
