Sounds to me like you must have stumbled onto a "Designo" edition?
 
That has got to be the only way to get the sticker anywhere near that high.
 
How do you like it so far?

Water in the trunk lid? by nimhrod

They seemd to have fixed the problem, finally. The next day the Keyless-Go stopped going, though. Had the car for 4 days and couldn't figure out why the signal was not opening the drivers door locks when I got near the car. At one point they suggested that it could be the dark-tinted windows that came on it from FL.
 
I told them that they had a problem then, as most of the FL cars have tinted windows and I guess that all were malfunctioning? Finally they replaced all the sensors and it worked.
 
With mileage at 47150, I only have another 850 until I have to make a decision on the extended warranty. Looks like a no-brainer with the problems I've been seeing. Still, I hate to shell out $3200 to add another 2 years and extend to 100,000 miles. Ouch! Thinking about getting another with less miles.

A couple of questions-
 
1. How happy are you with the hands-free phone? Can you use some of the current gizmo-loaded phones available?
 
2. How much of the roof is transparent with the Pano, and do you still have a sunroof up front?
 
3. Do you really use the power trunk closer often?
 
4. Do the tire pressure monitors tell you the pressure in each tire, or do they just let you know when they are below a certain point?
 
Thanks!

2.About 75%or so. #2 Yes
 
3.Yes.
 
4.Displays pressure in each tire. Very accurate.

Just turned 40000 miles on my e320 cdi. While in for a oil change mechanic noticed a fuel leak in the fuel line.
I was told the line must be replaced. Anyone had this problem.

New diesel causes hose leaks? by nimhrod

I had the same thing happen on mine recently. I smelled it long before I finally took it in. They said that the new diesel is causing some of the hoses/lines to dissolve. Nice, huh? I asked why they don't replace them all and they said the factory only authorizes replacement if they are actively leaking. Makes sense to me. That way they can really dip into the owners pockets after the factory warranty runs out.

That is a design defect. I would insist on free replacement. A leaking fuel line is very serious and mercedes should be going out of their way to keep the customer happy (so they won't sue).

I suggested the same thing. Their response was the it was not a design defect because, at the time of manufacture, the fuel currently in use was compatible with the MB fuel system. Now that the formulation has changed it's eating up the fuel lines & hoses. But this is not their problem until it fails. In other words, HOPE YOUR SYSTEM FAILS BEFORE THE WARRANTY ENDS!

... Blue Tec & EGR ??? by roland3
May 17, 2007 (11:11 am)

... just wondering if Blue Tec got rid of EGR, the urea saturated traps handle about 80 percent of NOx; was just in the local MB dealer, I think they thought I'am from Mars, but they were very polite. The one brochure they gave me mentioned the particulate and the urea but no mention of EGR.
