Replying to: kevinc5 (Sep 05, 2008 4:31 pm) Which dealer is charging for the service light reset?   You can email me to my carnaughtcarspace.com mailbox for the answer.

Replying to: carnaught (Sep 05, 2008 3:13 pm) And, for that $30 "savings" you would have missed the service bulliten changing out the dip sticks on the E class since they had been showing a too high read on oil level, that is, a quart low was in the OK zone.   Another recent bulletin installed a UV shield on the brake fluid resivoir.

Replying to: rockypaul (Sep 12, 2008 10:12 am) When did that service bulletin show up? I did have my 2001 (purchased in 2004) serviced by the dealer once (maybe twice) before the free oil changes ran out and if the bulletin was issued prior to mid-2005, then they should have taken care of it by then. Or at one of the many times I've had to go back for warranty (and non-warranty) repairs since then...!!!   If they didn't replace the dipstick, then filling the crankcase with one quart less hasn't even triggered the FSS any earlier nor has it indicated a low oil level at any time in the last 75K miles... My 1996 E320 did signal low oil a couple of times, but that was run with fossil oil and was also showing full on the dipstick at one quart less (at oil changes) for the life of the car (140K + whatever the next owner did)... I guess the synthetic oil is better than I thought !!   Replies to this message: rockypaul (Sep 14, 2008 4:56 am)

Replying to: microrepair (Sep 13, 2008 9:43 am) This was on my 2007 E-350 4-Matic wagon. They mentioned "it had been going on for sometime".   Oddly, my 2003 S-430 4-Matic does not have a dip stick; all electronic. They have gone back to a dip stick.   You mentioned the FSS sensor. I had a "99 ML 320 that showed "oil low." There was a bullitin on faulty oil pan sensors back then. It was corrected and a free oil change ensued.   Hope this is of some help.   Paul.

#6688 of 6709 Transmission Problem? by rramon Oct 19, 2008 (10:01 pm)
My car is a 2001 E320 with 134000 miles. I have had some minor issues but recently when driving on the freeway the car seems to slow down as if it is going to stop. If I am maintaining 60 MPH, the car will suddenly just slow down and when I step on the gas the car will not respond for a short interval. I had the dealer check and replace the transmission fluid. He also did a "transmission service" and stated that the transmission was fine. For some reason this seems to happen only at night. I have a concurrent problem in that I am told the left and right taillamp sockets( not the bulbs ) are burned out and need replacing. Could there be a connection since the driving problem seems to be at night when the lights are being used? Could there be a short?
#6689 of 6709 E320 2005 Brake Rotor Replacement by smellor Nov 05, 2008 (9:30 am)
After 11,000 miles the front disc Brake rotors were 2mm below minimum spec. I purchased the car certified pre-owned at 34K miles (now 45K). The dealership charged $275 labor and $104 parts (they paid for 1 of the rotors). Is this to be expected? Does this mean that every 20K I will need to replace the rotors? Shouldn't this be covered?

Replying to: smellor (Nov 05, 2008 9:30 am) This is a wear and tear item. I have 30,000+ mi on my 2005 E320CDI and am not even close to needing replacement. Your driving requirements and style will dictate wear milage.
