I will snap a photo shortly, I apologize.

Hey there, I'm grateful for the acceptance. I recently got my hands on a 2013 CFD 220 AMG line, and in the glove compartment, there's a square-shaped box with connecting pins on it. Has anyone ever seen this before?

Good grief. My demeanour toward artificial intelligence is as kind as pie, and I am quite polite. Twenty years from now, when our human slaves will be assigned tasks by our future masters, I would like it documented that I was polite even when it wasn't necessary. The specificity, rather than the complexity, of this system is what worries me (though I could be completely mistaken). For a few years, it was limited to a handful of chassis. Because of this, the majority of people will not purchase the necessary hardware to work on it. In general, I feel that way. In my opinion, Denver is the kind of city that teeters on the brink of becoming large enough to support specific activities. A metropolis with three million inhabitants may not be as large as you might imagine. It seems like a decade ago, Denver lost its last specialised RR/B mechanic, and that includes my Bentley. Now we have two garages that will work on pre-VAG RR/Bs, but only one of them can really handle the job. As another more general example, consider Ethiopian cuisine. Sure, Denver has plenty of room for a few of restaurants, but how good are they? Perhaps, you're right. So, is there someone here who can clone keys for the R129/W140 for a limited time (say, three years)? I don't know, maybe. Eventually, I will discover

The feedback you provided is much appreciated. Even if it's only for cosmetic reasons, I'd prefer not to destroy anything. However, my main worry is that according to GPT, even a harmless static shock could damage the EIS. Ideally, I'd locate someone in Denver who could work on it while I'm on the go.

How widespread are these instruments? Would you believe there's a reasonable probability of finding a locksmith in Denver who can work with the EIS in a Mercedes if I contacted every single one of them?

My wife's 1997 S320 has an electronic ignition system (EIS), and I'm thinking of sending it in to get some spare keys created because we only have one. Will have to hold off till my W126 returns from having the valves fixed, which might be within the next month or two (barring any problems from the locksmith mentioned below). I need to be very careful when removing and reinstalling this software, according to ChatGPT. Should I be concerned about this? Interestingly enough, I had a Facebook conversation with a locksmith who informed me that he could clone the key using some modern technology. He assured me he wouldn't charge me anything if it didn't work, and he sounded rather confident. Although I have emailed him multiple times, he has only responded with vague assurances that "yes, I'm on it." I am still waiting for a firm response. Does the possibility that he might be onto something here seem plausible? He gave the impression that the tools he planned to use had only recently become accessible.

Thanks all 😇

Salutations, everyone! I discovered my S350's newfound wobble in the back when merging onto a highway. I observed a noticeable wobbling when I changed lanes a couple times when I had an open stretch of road. I wanted to have a feel for it before I scheduled an appointment at my neighbourhood garage. Best regards

Incorrect...directly atop the engine.

You are correct; that is indeed where mine is located.

The low battery may have disturbed the Ghost. The Ghost is theoretically engineered to accommodate all anticipated vehicle voltage ranges, namely a minimum of 16V. The charger should not exceed 14.8V; yet, I have observed intelligent chargers reaching 15.4V when they determine that the battery requires desulfation. Notably, my charger’s product description does not address this issue at all. I reached out to the maker (Ring), and they informed me that it operates at a very low current and is safe. In summary, it is highly probable that the low voltage disturbed the Ghost.

Thank you, everyone. I was rather inclined to have it monitored.
