#114 of 123 Deciding between: MB ML 350, Audi Q7 and Volvo XC90 by ready2buy3 Mar 17, 2009 (6:04 pm)
Hey there, New to the forum. Looks like everyone is super helpful- so thanks for that upfront. I'm curious to see if anyone has any thoughts on the above models that I'm considering. I'm in the market for an SUV/Crossover- and have already ruled out the Lexus RX, Porche Cayenne, Range Rover and the BMW X5 due to personal taste. It's down to the above- and would love any insight/opinions from people who have gone down a similar comparison road. Thanks!

Replying to: cneff (Aug 08, 2008 8:27 pm) Hey, found the following on a MB owner group website. Looks like a pretty knowledgable reply regarding the 06 ML transmission problems. Hope this helps....   An 06 ML came with a 14 06 valve body which allows the 2-1 downshift before the vehicle reaches a standstill. This down shift is very un comfortable in traffic. When the dealer checks for newer software the computer states there is no newer software available. The solution is to replace the valve body with a 13 06 or a 21 06 which accepts the new software and takes care of the shift quality. The dealer has to submit the part numbers and software levels to MB to recieve authorization to replace the valve body under warranty. Please be patient and ask for a shop foreman to be involved as many techs are not aware of these details. Hope this helps.

#118 of 123 blutooth by chelentano Aug 22, 2009 (11:45 pm)
How does the bluetooth work on 06-08 M-Class? Is it part of some package? I just visited local MB dealer and salesman says that I have to purchase $500 adapter though that 2007 M350 comes with COMMAND navigation.   I imagine that adapter required only if I need to transfer my phone book, but if I just want to pair car bluetooth with my iPhone I would not need an adapter. It seems salesperson does not get it right? Replies to this message: doccolorado (Sep 22, 2009 8:11 pm) chelentano (Oct 07, 2009 8:56 pm)

Replying to: chelentano (Aug 22, 2009 11:45 pm) I suspect you need the "blue tooth" module, it fits in the center console under your arm rest.   You can see a photo of what it looks like here http://www.whnet.com/4x4/phones.html   it is 1/2 way down the page and silver with a blue end.   I bought mine at the dealer when I bought my car and got a nice discount across the counter from parts.   Its called "MHI Bluetooth Interface Module"; You can also find after market ones, but I never tried them. This thing works pretty good, and it does download your address book, previous calls etc, .   There were not many options for me to go aftermarket when I bought mine, but try this.   try google for that module and you might be surprised, I see them on Ebay, and here http://www.ecrater.com/product.php?pid=4604649 ($250)   Doc Replies to this message: chelentano (Oct 07, 2009 8:56 pm)

Replying to: doccolorado (Sep 22, 2009 8:11 pm) yes, thank you. I actually got one on eBay for $120 - original "MHI Bluetooth Interface Module"

Replying to: jaws4 (Mar 26, 2009 2:40 pm) I HAVE A 2006 ML350 4MATIC AND IT SHIFTS FROM 1 TO 2 AND NEVER TO 3, 4 OR 5. WOULD YOU HAVE ANY SOLUTIONS. IF THERE IS A SOLUTION BESIDES CHANGING THE TRANNY, DO YOU HAVE ANY PART NUMBERS? URGENTLY NEED HELP. MY WARRANTY IS OVER. I HAVE 55K MILES. WHAT IS AN ESTIMATED COST TO DO THIS REPAIR.

Replying to: ezrockcorp (Oct 22, 2009 8:12 pm) The first thing to check would be the transmission fluid level.   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper
