Mercedes Owners Thread

The CPA radar is not located being the giant star. It's located behind the front bumper beneath the headlamps. 

 

This pic is for CLA, not very different across the merc range. 

 

The smooth flat type grille star is for distronic plus radar. That's why if you have the distronic plus option you cannot have the lighted star option. 

 

The Radar is located behind the front grille, where the giant star is

 

if for any reason you knocked your bumper, or the grille, or get the star really dirty, the collision assist inoperative warning will come out

 

so think back and see if your grille is very dirty?

 

or where you park , there is trolley or people bumping into your grille

 

or you drive on really rough roads and your car bump until the radar out of alignment

 

(or are you having sex on your front bonnet?)

Guys just for sharing.

 

Send in my paint for the So-Called FOC Paint Protection. Its actually Nano Hahahah. Only single coating and send in at 1010am can only collect 530pm.. Ask for drop off car at my place they say car only arrive at my place approx 7pm... Haixxx...

[Vratenza]

that's why I ask the SE to do it before I collect my car. Save me the hassle of sending it in and collecting it later on.

No idea. even if so i dont think i will go back i rather go for those glass coating at other vendors

You could have opted out bro..

And get a lower price too.

 

Personally I don't mind the grooming package. Since I am forced to take a loan, I might as well enjoy the package. Beside with careful planning there is minimal additional downtime. 

[Vratenza]

Don't think they can or will discount by much when u try to bargain away the coating package.

 

Same, just take it since is part of the package. But personally I would not have gone for it if it means I have to fork out cash for it.

Are you on the enhanced car essential package which includes 4 x PPS?  I guess multiple coats over time will improve the protection.

Even against bird droppings?

dont last.. about 6mth and the effect is gone.. i was told it is sonax product not ceramic or glass coat but something better than wax. once i use up the 2times free i went outside to coat

Second this, the Sonax nano coating doesn't last. Mine only lasted 3 months with once per month washing. Better do ceramic or glass coating outside once exhausted the free sessions or skip it totally if you value your paint.

They advertise until looks so good. But nothing beats the feedback from the owners whose car is using sonax products Edited May 10, 2018 by RogerNg_185295
