Replying to: califjohn1 (Jan 11, 2009 3:10 pm) my 09 cls550 is great and a real head turner. no problems at all. would like to find chrome wheels but so far no luck. only want the ones just like came with it only chromed because they changed the style for 09 and it's one of the few cues that it is a 09. people talk about the sight line out the rear sides but it's never been a problem for me so i guess you get used to it.

Replying to: schlute (Jan 11, 2009 3:33 pm) Thanks for the quick response! I guess I will just have to drive one to see if the rear sight line is a problem. I love the look. Replies to this message: bmlexus (Apr 02, 2009 9:07 pm) rhansen1 (Apr 07, 2009 9:14 am)

Replying to: coryhoehn10 (Oct 28, 2008 12:53 pm) I have the same problem, even used the button in the car to call the Mercedes help people and they couldn't do it. If you figure it out, tell me. My friend has one and hers' works.
#29 of 34 Cost of my first maintenance by mccrarym Feb 09, 2009 (4:07 pm)
I am at about 13k, and it is time for my first maintenance. It is a leased vehicle, any chance it will be free? I'm afraid it is going to kill me!   thanks Replies to this message: schlute (Mar 04, 2009 7:37 am)
#30 of 34 Car Phone by NYAutoGuy Feb 14, 2009 (8:57 am)
I have a 2009CLS550. The COMAND System is equipped with Bluetooth and it synced seamlessly with my cell phone and uploaded my phonebook. The problem is that COMAND automatically reversed all of my entries. I enter names as First Name, Last Name and the system recorded that as Last Name, First Name so I have to speak the names backwards. What's worse is that it also garbled entries that contained a name and location such as John Doe Home. It recorded these randomly as Home John Doe or Home Doe John or Doe Home John so that that there's no uniform system for such entries. When I discuss this with Mercedes the initial reaction is that they never heard of such a problem, something I find hard to believe. After getting a long runaround calling different service centers I finally got someone who also never heard of this but, after discussing it with his colleagues, got back to me and said that this is the way the system works and it can't be changed. The whole thing is idiotic - why would you design a system that defeats the customer's preferences. Has anyone else run into this problem?   Thanks.

Replying to: mccrarym (Feb 09, 2009 4:07 pm) My 09 CLS 550 is at the dealer now for its first service, called level A and it is supposed to be done at 1year or 10,000 miles. They told me that it will be aprox 269.00 which is basically for an oil change. They use synthetic oil and a special oil filter which is how it can go so long before an oil change. They also check a lot of things. It is spelled out in the maintenance book in your car. Mine also had a recall to update the "tele aid" module" at no charge but it ads an hour to the service. Don't know if I will keep going back but since it's so seldom it is probably worth it for resale etc.

#33 of 34 My leasing experience by rhansen1 Apr 07, 2009 (9:14 am)
Replying to: bmlexus (Apr 02, 2009 9:07 pm) Just leased a 2009 CLS550 with AMG style package, prem package and parktronic. 83K+ msrp, 7k discount, 39 mo 12k miles for $1,084/mo (inc. 9.25% sales tax) and $6K down.   Tried a BMW 550i that was loaded loaded and they wanted $5K down and $1,169/mo but the car was a dealer demo and had almost 3K miles. Also looked at a lexus GS350. They were talking $900+/mo with $1,500 down for a vehicle with msrp in the low $50k.   The MBZ was so much better looking, couldn't pass it up.

Replying to: bmlexus (Oct 02, 2008 4:00 am) Congrats, I just bought my first Mercedes Mar 28. 09. I live in north of Chicago and I was looking for an CLS 550 2008 with the Keyless go and all the other toys . I was working with a few dealerships close by but none were too be found. I went on the internet and found one in Annapolis Maryland, they made me a deal I couldn't turn down. My wife and I flew out there, they picked us up from the airport and treated us very very well. I guess when you buy a car like that it's to be expected We drive it home the next day, which the drive back in the CLS550 was wonderful. Good luck on ours. -Bob
