On a lighter note; Does any one have any recommendations for washing an obsidian black Mercedes. I do not want to go through the old fashioned brush system but have heard that touchless may also cause streaks....
Should I always get a detailer to do it??

Looks like there are two filters...a charcoal cabin "pollen" filter and a regular dust filter
 
Pollen filter
 
1 Remove right cover below instrument panel
2 Move locking slide in direction of arrow and remove cover
3 Withdraw activated charcoal filter downwards
 
NOTE: Activated charcoal filte must not be cleaned but should always be replaced.
 
Dust Filter
 
   1. Remove glove compartment. (undo light connector wire, undo two plugs, undo 6 screws, remove entire cover/box from instrument panel.
   2. Push holding clips in direction of arrow and then remove cover
   3. Pull out, push in dust filter
4 Install in the reverse order.

The antenna mast is a common problem. I need a replacement myself for my 2000 E320. Try benzworld.org for a few solutions. No need to pay a dealer for the complete unit.

Since the mast broke in our local Mike's carwash, they paid for it. It cost $150 from the MB dealer. It is a rip off as MB should just have the gasket and mast instead of the entire cover as a kit. It is the body colored cover/mast and the base gasket. I googled it and found a place on E-bay that sold the base gasket and the mast for $32 free shipping. I bought the piece while not knowing what Mike's carwash would do.
 
Two days before the kit showed up, I was told to go to the dealer and pick up the piece. I felt bad that they paid $150 for this. If I knew the replacement piece existed for $32, I would have paid for it and would not have bothered to complaint about it.

I have a 1997 E320 and I am having the same problem, can u tell me what your solution was, I called the MB dealer and they sent someone out, they checked battery and stated that it was prob the key..they advised us to try another key, however we bought the car used and we do not have a spare key.. Please tell me what your solution is...other wise we will have to buy another key just to see if that works, if it doesn't then it more money out to send it to the dealer...please assist..
