Greetings, all! I'd want to introduce myself because I'm new to the forum. A 2013 Mercedes C220 was my latest purchase I figured I'd join up because my car is showing signs of trouble at just 156,000 kilometres, and I could use some help from folks who are familiar with this model. What might be considered typical for its age and what could be signs of a more serious issue that requires attention is something I'm attempting to figure out. Being a part of this community makes me joyful, and I can't wait to hear about your experiences. Would much appreciate any assistance. Thank you in advance.

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.

You have been a member since 2003, so it is understandable that you have encountered the subjects in my threads numerous times. Conversely, I have been a member for only 10 months and continue to discover new information about a marque I have owned for decades. Furthermore, I am confident there are other members like myself, which is why I invest significant time and effort in assisting newer members rather than the seasoned veterans, who I presume possess extensive knowledge and lack interest in my posts, which may seem trivial to them. Similarly, I am not directing my efforts towards these forum experts, as they certainly do not require assistance from someone like me. This is an international forum for Mercedes owners and enthusiasts, encompassing both members and guests. My intention is to offer assistance, advice, insights, and occasionally share humorous clips, cartoons, or light-hearted content. I do not aim to impart knowledge to those already well-versed, as I have previously stated; those with expertise may simply bypass my threads, as I have reiterated multiple times. My little movie elucidates the function, since a 'picture' conveys a thousand words, making it more comprehensible than text. Therefore, I believe a comprehensive video on the topic is warranted, and at 2 minutes and 4 seconds, it is relatively concise.

I think you would benefit from reading my post and maybe even watching the movie because you are completely incorrect. Oh, I see... It seems like you're against my attempts to produce useful postings in some way

I started this thread in case there are others who are unaware of this safety feature and might find it interesting, as well as as a way to get to know their Mercedes better. I searched the forum and couldn't find anything specifically posted about Automatic Park, also known as Automatic Transmission Park-Lock, Automatic Park-Lock, Park-lock, Drive-Away Protection, etc. This post probably won't matter to you if this isn't you and you're already familiar with Automatic Transmission Park-Lock. The subject was brought up in the "What Have You Done To Your Merc Today?" thread by an anonymous user from MSN2004. I must express my gratitude to him for shedding light on this safety feature that Mercedes has implemented; I must admit, even after owning and driving these cars for more than 20 years, I was unaware of it. 👍😁 Also, I'm fully aware that this feature isn't to everyone's liking; in fact, some people think it's the very opposite of useful when doing moves like reversing a caravan, where you need to lean out and/or look behind while driving. Although I wouldn't say it happened while driving a Mercedes, I have witnessed such things happening on private property, so it's not entirely out of the ordinary. I personally think Automatic Park is a fantastic safety feature; Mercedes developed it as a roll-away prevention system, and it activates when the driver does anything that could cause the car to creep, roll, or lurch. However, as the old saying goes, "one man's meat is another man's poison," so you can't please everyone. Then what exactly is this "Automatic Park" that I've been raving about? To put it briefly, it is... When the door is opened while the car is still in Drive or Reverse and the driver is still sitting, Mercedes will automatically shift into Park. From 2010 and later models, the majority of Mercedes vehicles have this feature: * Controls for changing gears electronically (central toggle or column stalk) * Self-parking electronic brake a seat-occupied detector The door-open safety interlock can be used. If your Mercedes is equipped with Park-Lock, you may tell by looking at the following: * It has park-lock, yes. You can access it using the electronic gear selector on the steering column. * It has Park-Lock, yes, thanks to a little electrical toggle that reads "Electric." A large physical lever for turning power on and off—mechanical—NO, it does not * A stick shift—no park—no, it doesn't

"This vehicle has already been created." is the message that appears when I try to register the automobile, despite the fact that I registered for Mercedes Me previously. To verify your identity as the vehicle's new owner, please get in touch with your local Mercedes-Benz dealer. Does anybody have any idea how much the pin code to authorise a download from Mercedes Me would cost? I plan to call my local dealer tomorrow to find out.

I take it that you got it for free? After you confirm the card is suitable by providing the VIN number when you purchase, the vendor will send you an SD card with instructions and a PIN.

Thank you once again for the very useful response.

You're absolutely right; I'm grateful. You may find a vendor on eBay with reasonable prices and positive reviews; thus, updating via SD card should work. The fact that I do not own the original installation program is causing me anxiety in the event that it corrupts the existing maps.

The part number makes me think it could be for an SLK, but I'm not sure. Does it matter whether model year a model is from if the same software is used?
