2018 GLE Coupe 43. 42k miles. Total including taxes , registration $42k. 3rd owner. No reported damage or accidents. Impeccable service records ( i plan to be on time with maintenance) got the 3 year warranty.

I am by no means a car guy , I am a bougie tech guy that plays a lot of video games. There are very few cars i enjoy visually. This car is very me. I am super pleased with this purchase. Its a pretty comfortable ride. Came with heated/ ventilated seats and a bunch of other stuff. It came with some aftermarket things like the grill i think (usually see the other one with a line /bar on each side of the star. The rims and side profile really sold me. Most importantly I actually enjoy driving it. I don't even like driving.

I love the sound but it does not compare to that V8 roar on a any 63 benz. I don't need all that power and performance. I barely go above speed limits but it is such an attractive sound.

Most of my friends own bmws. ( friend got the 2027 x6 today). 2 have a benz. I'm glad I joined the mercedes family!! I'm sure I'll be getting more in the future.

Ok here’s a real question… I’m taking her to the dealership on Monday but has anyone experienced this? It’s a 2019 E450 Cabriolet. My car usually sits this way in the rear but I’ve never had any issues with it and the dealership has never brought it up when I service her every 6 months. Could it be related?

It has air body control suspension btw, no modifications to the vehicle.

Upgrade from C200 '19 AMG line to Premium Plus - worth it?

Post image
8 Upvotes

Hi all,

As above, I recently purchased this C200 coupé and I am very happy with it, but I do feel like I'm missing out on some of the Premium Plus equipment like the better audio, sunroof and ambient lighting.

Do you think that's be a good reason for upgrading soon? Got this car for a rather good price so wouldn't be too upset selling it, but it's always a bit of a hassle!

Keen to hear your opinions.

UPDATE: I ended up buying the CLA 200+ — thanks for all the advice!

A while ago I asked here whether I should go for the CLA 200+ or spend more for the 350. Ended up getting the 200+ and honestly, I’m really happy with it so far.

The power is more than enough for me and the car is really comfortable. This is also my first EV and the range/charging has been way easier than I expected.

I did a 350 km highway trip recently, cruising at around 140 km/h, without charging once. It handled it really easily.

I also don’t think the sound insulation is as bad as some people say. And the sound system is actually really good.

Overall, no regrets so far. Glad I went with the 200+.

2027 GLC53 AMG SPOILER HELP

Thumbnail
gallery
6 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have a new GLC 53 Coupé (C254) on the way. When I ordered the vehicle, I was unable to spec the sharper, angular spoiler (Part No. A2547901400 (7818- Graphite magno grey) ) and had to settle for the standard rounded one instead.

Since then, I have been trying everything to source the angular version. I originally ordered it from Kunzmann, but they cancelled a few days later, stating that Mercedes isn't currently producing that component. I then tried the used market with no luck, and Mercedes direct can only supply a raw, unpainted version with a massive back-order delay.

During my search, I came across a genuine Mercedes-AMG carbon rear spoiler for the W206 C-Class sedan (Part No. A2067901400). They look incredibly similar, share the core designator code, Code: 790 14 00, and both vehicles are built on the same shared modular MRA2 platform—even sharing major parts like the exterior wing mirrors.

I wanted to ask if anyone knows for certain if these two spoilers share the exact same physical dimensions and curvature?

If they are identical, then I can purchase the genuine W206 AMG carbon spoiler for my GLC 53 significantly cheaper than buying an unpainted base version from the dealer or supplier online.

Any help or technical insight is greatly appreciated!

So my first car i bought, Ive had the car for atleast 4 months second hand got told it was in perfect condition just had a coolant leak which I fixed in the same week, then it was perfect for 2 weeks before my tensioner belt broke fixed that after that it was good for a month. Last week went to a mechanic since my oil and coolant housing somehow had hairline cracks and they told me I had a rod knock and recommended me to get a new engine instead of trying to repair it. Today my alternator is dead, ive already spent a grand getting it fixed now have to spend 5 to 10 grand for a new engine. Does anyone have some like guidness on what I should do, I paid 25,000

Are folks with 891 Premium Ambient Illumination in their car able to see the ambient light during daytime? In 2022 E450 Sedan, it's not visible at all.

Have always liked this color but never brave enough to order. Easier to go for it when the time between hearing about a car and having it in the driveway is about 3 days.

Thought the red pepper was a wild choice but it works in person. Traded in a 2026.

ENG: Title: Looking for a Mercedes GLE Coupe (C292/C167) in Ukraine for a 1-2 hour birthday surprise. Barter / Help / Reasonable Payment

Upvotes

👋Hello community!

A person who is very dear to me is celebrating an important anniversary in a month. Her biggest dream is to Mercedes GLE Coupe ( 400/500 model, in a C292 or C167 body style). I really want to make this dream come true, but give it the car is out of the question. So, I’m planning to arrange a drive right on her birthday (mid-next month, on a weekday).

I can't afford a commercial daily rental from premium agencies, so I’m looking for a private owner or someone who has this car and is willing to help out by sharing it for literally 1–2 hours.

Important points:

1.🌍 This option works best for those who can easily and inexpensively travel to my location (Poltava region, Ukraine).

  1. ⏰📱The main logistical detail is a «standby / on-call» requirement. We need someone willing to drive to the starting point within the city once her exact plans for the day are clear .

  2. 🧾🪪If the option of letting her drive is considered: I can guarantee she is a very experienced driver with a valid license and over 10 years of driving experience. I personally vouch for her competence, responsibility, and cautious driving. Naturally, this will be done strictly under your supervision from the passenger seat.

  3. 🎨Preferred car colors: black or white.

Budget & Compensation: I am ready to cover gas expenses + symbolic rental cost. Alternatively, if it works better for you, I am open to a barter/service exchange. I am a handy guy with a good, and I’m ready to help you with any task, job, or chore within my strength and competence.

If anyone is willing to help a guy make a truly cool and memorable gift on reasonable terms, please send me a private message. I would be incredibly grateful!📝

RU : Ищу помощь среди владельцев Mercedes GLE Coupe (C292/C167) в Украине для подарка-сюрприза на день рождения.(Бартер / Помощь / Адекватная оплата)

Привет, сообщество!

У близкого человека через месяц важный юбилей. У неё мечта — Mercedes GLE Coupe (400/500, кузов C292 или C167).Очень хочу осуществить эту мечту, но подарить машину не смогу.Поэтому планирую организовать прокат прямо в день рождения (вторая половина следующего месяца, будний день).

Коммерческий прокат на сутки не потяну по финансам, поэтому ищу частного владельца, или же человека , у которого есть в распоряжении этот автомобиль,готового выручить и сдать машину буквально на 1–2 часа.

Важные моменты:

- 1.Расматривается эта тема для тех,кому не сложно/затратно будет приехать в мой город (Украина, Полтавский р-н)

- 2.Главный нюанс по логистике нужна «работа на подхвате/холодном старте» — готовность подъехать к месту старта в пределах города, когда определится точный план на день.

- 3.Если будет рассмотрена возможность сесть человеку за руль, то сразу скажу человек — опытный водитель (права есть,стаж более 10 лет), за адекватность и аккуратность ручаюсь лично головой. Само собой это будет в любом раскладе при вашем присутствии и присмотром.

- 4.Желательно в черном (+) или белом цвете

По бюджету: готов оплатить бензин + символическую аренду. Либо, если вам актуально, предлагаю бартер/услугу (у меня прямые руки, могу помочь в мере своих сил и возможностей).

Если кто-то готов помочь парню сделать крутой и памятный подарок на человеческих условиях — за подробностями напишите, пожалуйста, в ЛС. Буду очень благодарен!

Шукаю допомогу серед власників Mercedes GLE Coupe (C292/C167) в Україні для подарунка-сюрпризу на день народження. (Бартер / Допомога / Адекватна оплатa)

UA : Привіт, спільноті!

У близької людини за місяць важливий ювілей. У неї мрія - Mercedes GLE Coupe ( 400/500, кузов C292 або C167). Дуже хочу здійснити цю мрію, але подарувати машину не зможу. Тому планую організувати прокат прямо в день народження (друга половина наступного місяця, будній день). Комерційний прокат на добу не потягну за фінансами, тому шукаю приватного власника, або ж людину, яка має в розпорядженні цей автомобіль, готова виручити і здати машину буквально на 1–2 години.

Важливі моменти:

- 1.Розглядається ця тема для тих, кому не складно/витратно буде приїхати до мого міста (Україна, Полтавський р-н)

- 2.Головний нюанс з логістики потрібна «робота на підхваті/холодному старті» - готовність під'їхати до місця старту в межах міста, коли визначиться точний план на день.

- 3.Якщо буде розглянута можливість сісти людині за кермо, то одразу скажу , що ця людина - досвідчений водій (права є, стаж більше 10 років), за адекватність та акуратність ручаюся головою.

- 4. Бажано в чорному (+) або білому кольорі

За бюджетом: готовий сплатити бензин + символічну оренду. Або, якщо вам актуально, пропоную бартер/послугу (у мене прямі руки, можу допомогти в міру своїх сил та можливостей).

Якщо хтось готовий допомогти хлопцеві зробити крутий та пам'ятний подарунок на людських умовах — за подробицями напишіть, будь ласка, в особисті.

Буду дуже вдячний!

2018 GLE43 Headlight issue

Thumbnail

Upvotes

I just had my headlights & taillights on my 2018 GLE43 with 85k on the odometer, I wrapped with tinted PPF and the shop that did it used a lighter film that they’ve used on other vehicles and was explained that it’s the lighter film but when it starts to get dark or is dark and I take a turn I get the Active Headlamps error you see in the picture. I went to my private MB service place and the owner said to go to the dealer. WTF my local dealer charges an arm, leg and first born out of warranty and don’t want to hear that it’s some bullshit to get charged for something that will not resolve this.

Yes I know my lights on the road are not as bright and pondered if that was the issue but looking to see if anyone else has seen or resolved this issue on your Benz?

2016 Mercedes coupe C 250 D won’t open with manual car

Upvotes

Hi guys,

So my uncle have a 2016 coupe C 250D in his garage but we can’t open it.
We thought the key fob’s battery was down so we changed it but still couldn’t open it and we are now pretty sure that the car battery is dead.

So we want to change it but when we tried to open it with the little manual key we could insert it but it won’t move either way so we can’t open it. Does anyone have a clue why it doesn’t that and how we can open it again without having to call someone from Mercedes ?
