Once again, my 7 speed let me down. This time, it hangs in 4th or 5th gear. Went to the shop yesterday, but no word on it as of the end of business today.

Anyone finding the satellite reception to be poor in their new M class? We've had the car for four days now and the satellite reception seems to be getting worse. Tried the free Sirius radio on the way to work and it couldn't get through a full song without having to search for a satellite - this was on a clear stretch of the Mass pike on the way into Boston, with a clear view of the sky. First time with satellite, but it seems like it should work much better than this.

Replying to: dboxmeyer (Feb 05, 2007 9:58 am) rebroadcast satellite signals, in many metropolitan areas factors such as physical obstructions like bridges, tunnels and even huge buldings can disrupt your radio's reception. Even the FM frequency you choose in your car can effect reception. Check out the My Sirius Frequncy Finder tool and enter your zip code to get a list of the suggested FM frequecies in your area. Good luck!

Hi Everyone, I have a 2001 ML 320 with just about 100,000 miles on it. I never had a problem starting it ultil I brought it in for body work and new brakes. I live On Long Island in NY and before I brought it in we didn't have too much cold weather. Since I have picked my car up the temperature has dropped dramaticlly and now when I start it up cold, I get that very loud whining sound. Hoever when I turn the car off and run an errand or something if the engine is still warm I dont get that whining sound. I brought it back to the repair shop to ask them about it. Since this was not a problem before the car went in but since the engine was warm from the drive over it didn't make that sound. Does anyone have any ideas? I thought I'd tap the knowladge of as many folks as possible before bringing it somewhere and being raked over the coals. I'm not sure if it could be the power steering pump because the power steering is never difficult even with start up. because of the brake work I'm wondering if anything has to do with the abs system only because the noise is similar to what i heard on my Range Rover when the ABS system started to go. I sure hope its not that but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas. Also this whining noise goes away after the car is in motion and warmed up. Any thoughts. Allie Allipin539  aol.com

Replying to: mschafer (Feb 09, 2007 4:24 am) The strange part is that the reception is markedly better in the afternoon / evening on the same stretch of road than it is in the morning... I'm wondering if there's some strange atmospheric thing gonig on here. In any case, the idea of extending my subscription past the six month trial seems remote if the radio is constantly being interupted during my morning commute. I'm curious - anyone have reception problems with their satelite radio in a new M class? If so, how does it compare to any other car that you have with sat radio? Thanks! |
