#838 of 869 Xenon headlamps adjustment by bgneumann May 28, 2009 (1:50 pm)
Replaced the xenon bulbs over a year ago (C320 2001) & was fine until a few weeks ago. Now seem to be aimed too low (both sides) & does not illuminate the road as well as before.   Anybody had similar problem ? Are the headlamps self adjusting ?? Is there an adjustment screw(s) ??   Any help appreciated ? Thanks. Replies to this message: bgneumann (Jun 03, 2009 5:09 am)

Replying to: bgneumann (May 28, 2009 1:50 pm) One dealer said that each lamp has a sensing module that may be defective .... ie. both lights at same time ?? Another dealer said that there is only one sending module for both lights. Probably the module is defective .... costs $230 !! Read somehwere that maybe the modules may have been somehow have disconnected or came loose, but doubt that ?? Probably, after 7 years, may have to dish out $230. Any car deteriorates .... even an MB.   Dealers no real help yet. Will have to go & see them & have them advise.
#840 of 869 Trim Fitting by ouchie Jun 27, 2009 (10:05 am)
The "headlining" surrounding the bonnet release under the dashboard in my C200K Coupe (2004) keeps dropping into the footwell. It is a shaped piece of trim backed with thick felt. Any ideas on how it can be fitted back in place I cannot see any obvious clips etc. PS Members might like to know that Haynes have just published an updated guide on the Mercedes C Class (up to 07) No.4780. ouchie

#842 of 869 First Mercedes Benz by kumasi Aug 23, 2009 (12:10 pm)
Hi folks! Wow, I just bought my 1st Benz and would like to know how often it should be "tuned"? It's a 1998 and the previous owner took pretty good care of it and I would like to do the same. It currently has 145+k miles. Peace Ouogahdo

Replying to: rnugent (Apr 27, 2009 8:45 am) Did you ever figure out where the fuse box was located? I have the same problem only mine occurs now on a regular basis and I have to take it to the shop to have them fix it. I have read the manual and I can't seem to find the location. I would really appreciate any info you may have. Thanks, Misty
#844 of 869 Buying a 2009 300 C-Class by carhunter15 Aug 25, 2009 (2:23 pm)
I was told the dealer invoice is $34,635.00. I was wondering how much lower can I expect to negotiate with the dealer? Thank you.
#845 of 869 Hood open and Windshield wipers by txhungrybear Sep 05, 2009 (8:05 pm)
Ok guys, this sounds like a real problem, but wanted to check out with you all first. Earlier this week my "HOOD OPEN" started coming on and will go away when the car is at about 25mph, I checked the hood and it is latched and not open. Now on friday morning I'm going to work and it started to rain, got to the stop light and the wipers stopped working, when I took my foot off break and got to about 10mph the wipers came back on and will only come on when going 10mph or faster and the hood light goes off at the same time the wipers start to work. Anyone else experience this? HELPPPP Replies to this message: rowlandj (Sep 06, 2009 6:49 am)

Replying to: txhungrybear (Sep 05, 2009 8:05 pm) How old is your car? I have heard that MB's will exhibit odd behavior like this with a weak battery. If your battery is at the 5-year or more stage it may be worth replacing it as it will let you down eventually anyway. I always change mine a bit ahead of schedule so I don't end up stuck somewhere looking for a jump or tow.
#847 of 869 Battery by txhungrybear Sep 06, 2009 (8:52 am)
Thank you for the info. this is odd, I just noticed last week that the battery is starting to get weak. Its a 2004 C-240. I'll make plans to have a new battery installed this week. Replies to this message: j_rohas (Sep 07, 2009 5:57 am) rowlandj (Sep 08, 2009 2:46 am)
