#12 of 42 Security Device Problems by mrcu2000 Jul 24, 2007 (3:54 am)
I am wondering if anyone has had any problems with their 2006 300 not starting due to a problem with the security device? I took the car in to the dealership and they said this is just something that sometimes happens. Unfortunatly they had no advice as to how to prevent it in the future. Unfortunatly I am 2600 miles past my warranty and the part will cost $400.
#13 of 42 Dash lights, AC, and gauges go dead while driving by jimcunningham Aug 06, 2007 (11:08 am)
I have a 2006 300 Touring, the other day while driving 60 mph, the dash lights went dead, the blower went dead for the AC and my gauges went dead. The car kept running fine, just lost electrical power I assume. This happened about 7 or 8 times within a 15 minute trip, but has not happened since. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

#15 of 42 Ac High Blower went dead driving, 4 Radio Speakers, passenger power locks by pgigliotti Aug 08, 2007 (4:50 pm)
Ten days ago, my son brought my 2005 300 to the dealer, my complaint being the RR speaker crackling. They diagnosed the RF door speaker was not working and ordered one. I checked and the 2 front speakers and both doors don't work and the crackling from the rear stopped. While returning from a trip, about 2 hours into driving the AC high blower stopped working. An hour later it came back on. The next day the same thing happened after 2 hours driving. Once home, I tried to unlock the doors from the passenger side. The lock button on the door don't work. All these malfunctions at the same time. Any ideas or solutions? I certainly don't want to rebuild the electrical system one part at a time. Replies to this message: xtec (Aug 09, 2007 9:53 am)

Replying to: pgigliotti (Aug 08, 2007 4:50 pm) Is your car still under warranty?Thats why I buy the Extended warranties.People say its a waste of money,but your case proves anything can happen and it would have been a good idea to get it.When you buy A first year model these are problems that happen.I hope you get it fixed.Good luck.

Replying to: kzl600 (Jan 04, 2007 5:44 am) Regarding the windows - I can almost guarantee it's not a relay. It's the window motor stator that's gone bad and the motor will need to be replaced. I've had this issue with 2 of my windows, 1 front, 1 rear (and I believe it is a very common problem with Mercedes, too).   The interesting thing is that if you slammed the door, it would jiggle the motor just enough to be past the bad spot. Since I've had the motors replaced, the problem has not come back.   It seems weird that the other problems have appeared serially. how much do you trust the dealer you're using for repairs?
#18 of 42 Re: Battery dead every few days [kass1] by pnelson1 Oct 31, 2007 (11:38 am)
Replying to: kass1 (Jan 23, 2007 6:00 am) Did anyone ever find out what battery/electrical problem was? I have a 2005 300C that had a dead battery after sitting for about two hours. The dealer replaced the battery. About a week later the battery was dead again. The battery tests fine and now I have to wait for my battery to drain again & tow the car in before they will try to figure it out. Help! Replies to this message: pnelson1 (Jan 31, 2008 10:30 pm)
#19 of 42 Flickering headlights/instrument panel by dworley Nov 11, 2007 (4:29 pm)
My 05 300 headlights have occasionally flickered since I bought the car. Recently, at 47K miles, the instrument lights have begun to flicker too. A dealer said they checked the headlights and cleaned the bulb contacts. That seemed to help for 10K miles, but the flicker has come back. I haven't had the instrument light flickering checked yet. Any suggestions? Replies to this message: xtec (Nov 12, 2007 9:43 am)

Replying to: dworley (Nov 11, 2007 4:29 pm) There is a service bulletin for your problem.Service bulletin #1800305,the date this came out was Jan.12 2005.Its for Headlights fluctuation and interior lights fluctuation.Your dealer should know this and why they don't is something I can't understand.This bulletin should take care of your problem,so when you go back,tell them to check your car for this bulletin and it will tell then the fix.Good Luck.
