They're going to have to do something to convert people to the V6 idea... the 4matic-CDI combo would sure be a good way to win some die-hard I-6'ers over! [IMHO]

CD Player that plays MP3 by rbarkley

I was told that my in-dash CD player will play a CD made up with mp3's. I have called the MB 800 number and thay said it should, but I've tried three different CD's with MP3 files and the CD changer will not read them. Does anyone know what the problem is?
 
Mp3 Cd will hold about 10 hours of music without a loss of music quality.

Make sure you use CDR and not CDRW. Many MP3 units will not read re-writable disks. The better the quality CDR Blank the better the chance of good music quality.

I have a 2005 cdi and have the same problem when making a right turn. When slowing at a freeway exit and when taking off from a dead stop, but always on a right turn. Have the same results with the "Limp Home Mode" restart and its fine. EGR or transmission?

Just a thought: EGR is likely under this scenario: right hand turn could be a red herring (how many times does one exit off the freeway to the left?). It may be more a function of operating at freeway speed and then sudden deceleration causing a shift in emission function and resultant hiccup to the system.
I have no real basis for saying this except to suggest the right hand turn may be less significant unless you are also noticing it with city stop 'n' go driving.
 
Is it only balking after freeway speeds? If so, I'd go with the earlier suggestion of EGR. Less expensive and easier to try than transmission.

Is 4matic a must for the snowy road? by cctdi

I was quite amazed as I was driving the CDI on the snow covered road today. This car gripped the surface in a very good manner. I drove first the Highlander Hybrid 4wd-I, then I thought I should see how the CDI rwd behaviors on the snow; the car has no problem for 45 minutes commute on a few inches snow day!
