interesting cossie1600, thx for your input do you recall what mileage the problem started with your RAV4? our sound was initially intermittent and now seems to be intensifying... maybe its more obvious to me because I'm listening for it

our B-class has developed a very annoying high pitched sound/whine when accelerating and decelerating. My wife is the primary driver (she has not noticed it but she also rocks out on the radio ;-) ) but having not driven the car for a few weeks the sound was very obvious to me. The noise...

a "PRE-SAFE Function Limited" warning popped up our dash today i called MBrace and they suggested I clean the bumper sensors. funny because the car is cleaner today than ever. i didn't wax the car or anything either called dealer and they said they could look at it ASAP, will keep the forum...

Glenn, thanks for the openEVSE info... On the advice of the dealer we (my electrician) installed a Bosch charger. It works great although no timer function. Its suitable for outdoor use/abuse... I can't tell, are the OpenEVSE units suitable for outdoor use? thanks Patrick

this is our second Mercedes Benz with fake leather... In my opinion the MB-Tex wears much better than the real stuff, the dealer agrees. Our 13 year E320 with MB-Tex has seats that looked new. Its not like MB-Tex looks like "pleather" either. I would guess most people can't tell the...

I've voiced my criticism of the lack of timed (scheduled) charging and the poor B-class "app" to Mercedes. The omission of this basic feature is crazy and possibly a significant expense for those without solar or an EVSE that has charge scheduling... After a few rounds of voicemail tag I...

i've experienced the same "false alarm" a few times with no vehicles around. A minor annoyance so far I would not turn the system off though. it is designed to save you from a front crash. I'm happy to put up with a few false alarms for the protection the system is designed to provide. I am...

"our effort was dramatically smaller" seems this dogma would explain the poor implementation of the my mercedes electric web/app and the complete oversight of providing scheduled charge timing Dieter should invest considerably more effort (not necessarily money) to bring the software of the...

moderator, i should have posted this under "real world range" can you move it? thanks!

I think most of us agree, the GOM is very irritating and has major limitations... That said I wanted to post a comment on the cars standard range... Today i had a reassuring experience: based on the car typically only showing us between 66 and 72 miles (GOM predicted range) I was a concerned...

I live in the SF Bay Area (near Palo Alto) Im interested if there are any other B Class owners nearby...

Harley, I feel your pain! I too just purchased the car yesterday and the B Class App is still DOA In additon the "connected" elements of the car (Mercedes apps and Satellite radio) are not working. Why should it take longer than 24 hours to have Mercedes activate these features? Crazy...
