Sure, that's for a diagnostic purpose. Are you looking for a local Mercedes expert?

On average, a dealer will charge around £200 for an hour of diagnostics.

Sharing your whereabouts could be useful. By the way, have you looked up "Mercedes independent" on the internet?

For m57, I'd go with the e46.

"Smart" vehicles! My diesel is the best!

There are solar chargers, although I am uncertain of their efficacy.

I am unable to address your inquiry; nevertheless, a similar incident occurred with my friend's BMW several years ago. While we were in a parking lot, he activated the unlock button as we neared his vehicle, and another BMW of the same model and colour responded by beeping and unlocking as well. We drove a considerable distance, returned on foot to the other BMW to secure it, then walked back to his vehicle and departed.

Have you attempted to configure it using the Mercedes Me application?

Some Diesel Ingenium vehicles have reached 100,000 miles without troubles, while others have barely achieved 15,000 miles. Later versions from 2022 onwards may perform better. It is possible that their reliability is inferior to other manufacturers.

Assess the condition of the 12V battery using a load test. It may appear satisfactory with a multimeter, but it may experience power loss when a load is applied.

On my 204, it is all BF&BI! Persist in exerting effort; it may not be easy, however it is effective!

Best of luck, friend.
