  1. Stubby USB adapters are available for purchase. I own one, but, I am unable to recall its origin. Perform a search on the Amazon platform. I have just discovered that the manufacturer of the product is BELKIN.
  2. Now I see. That is the correct technique for activating the electronic handbrake and it is unrelated to the sensotronic braking system, which is not present in your automobile. In response to your original inquiry, the function of the mechanism is to fully retract the handbrake, allowing for the replacement of the rear brake pads. Subsequently, when the system is activated once more, it retracts the motor to accommodate the increased thickness of the new pads. The SBC is a distinct entity that is never associated with the C class. The brochure you received with your pads included incorrect information. Hopefully, this information may assist you with your first inquiry.
  3. Can I ask what the procedure you used to deactivate SBC?
  4. I am certain that SBC was not accessible on the C class. Are you certain that the sound you are hearing is not coming from the electric handbrake?
  5. Did you have the Sensotronic Brake Control (SBC) system installed on a 2017 C class vehicle?
  6. I own a guarantee for my MB. I wouldn't classify them as a frivolous expenditure. Under warranty, I had to repair the two front shocks, the Pawel capacitor, the radar sensor, and the ESP control unit. Without a doubt, I can confidently state that I have received excellent value for the money I have spent. The main difference between the MB Warranty and Motoreasy is that with the MB Warranty, you would need to first pay for any repairs and then seek reimbursement, while the MB Warranty immediately covers the cost of repairs via the dealership.
  7. To the best of my knowledge, when you get an authentic card, it includes Live Traffic as a feature.
  8. You may purchase it directly from authorised Mercedes dealers. Please indicate your preference for the 'update' SD-Card, which is priced at around £100, rather than the 'first time' SD-Card, which is priced at approximately £500. Alternatively, you have the option to make an online purchase. However, I cannot guarantee the authenticity or legitimacy of the SD-Cards sold on these websites.
  9. Purchasing a fresh Garmin Map Pilot on an SD-Card provides you with the most up-to-date navigation software and maps. What advantages does the Mercedes Me "navigation package" provide you at this stage?
  10. In my opinion, it is more advantageous to purchase the most recent Garmin Map Pilot software and maps on an SD-Card, which includes real-time traffic, and replace it with a new SD-Card whenever a newer version becomes available, rather than subscribing to over-the-air updates.
  11. I recommend visiting Mercland in Nuneaton since they are known for their exceptional service and are supporters of the Forum.
  12. I considered it improbable that I was mistaken. Thank you, Mr.
  13. Well observed, Sir. It is unusual for me to make an error.
  14. Are the tyre pressures low, are the tyres worn, is the tracking off, or is there low fluid?
  15. Quite peculiar, I am pleased that you managed to resolve the situation.
  16. If no one else has come to assist, I would suggest attempting to unplug the battery for around one hour, provided that the particular model is not very sensitive to such action.
  17. Is your GPS/satellite navigation system functioning properly? My far older s211 model does not let me to correctly set the time without it.
  18. This should suffice:https://www.commandonline.co.uk/Mercedes-iPod-solutions/?AffDirectURL=https://www.commandonline.co.uk/Mercedes_Bluetooth_HFP.html It seems that the item is now unavailable at Comand Online. However, you may be able to get it on eBay.
  19. That is an exceptionally large amount of automobile for the money! And seems to be in excellent condition ...... Someone obtained a favourable deal!
  20. Personally, if I saw a Porsche being offered for sale equipped with Kumho tyres, it would really deter me.
  21. There are no problems with crabbing on my vehicle, and I also don't remember experiencing any troubles with the Pirelli tyres. My own financial situation at the time was such that I spent around £800 on Pirelli tyres and £1,000 on Michelin tyres, which was roughly two to three years ago. However, the additional cost has proven to be quite worthwhile.
  22. Uncertain about the method of measuring the ratio of worth to cost. Michelin tyres have a higher price point, but they are known for their superior quality and durability. My tyres have travelled about double the distance as the previous Pirelli tyres. The steering, braking, traction, and tyre noise all exhibit excellent performance, making them worth the additional upfront investment. I cannot provide a specific opinion on the Kumho tyres, but as a general rule, lower-priced products tend to have worse quality. The expenses associated with fitting and balance will remain consistent regardless of your choice, thus it is important to take other factors into consideration.
  23. Is it still less expensive than the Pirellis you mentioned?
  24. Apologies for the incorrect size mentioned before. It was a result obtained from Google.
  25. Take a peek at Michelin. The PS4 SUV tyres on the GL have shown a durability that is about double that of the previous Pirelli tyres. They seem to be much more affordable than the Pirellis that you mentioned as well: https://www.blackcircles.com/catalogue/michelin/pilot-sport-4-suv/275/35/R22/Y/104/m?tyre=40525712&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAD7OqRZ1cbOxtTX2Ge3ZwtztU6d9T&gclid=CjwKCAjwoPOwBhAeEiwAJuXRh-cBzXmjXWXeCQL-6QIb6yNTFLFKrStiRL3_NY_eKWrZr_IwK1OcRhoCPsQQAvD_BwE
