  1. Being an American writer, I will preface this by saying that I am sorry if my spelling and punctuation are incorrect. The 2017 e300 and the 2021 e450 All-Terrain are the two MBs that we own. The e300's navigation system isn't updated or functioning correctly anymore. As of December 31, 2025, we are aware that the 3G module will no longer function and that the mbrace service will be discontinued. Unfortunately, Mercedes-Benz is out of options when it comes to fixing this problem. We had the navigation map upgraded to the most recent version at our MB Dealer for our e300, however it is still acting problems. Furthermore, we are unable to pair our mobile devices with the vehicle's Bluetooth system. Neither of our cell phones will pair or be recognised by it. It appears that there are no solutions while looking for a remedy. How is this problem being addressed in the UK? It seems to me that 4G has been available since 2009. Why Mercedes-Benz waited till 2019 to implement 4G is a mystery to me. Would you have any thoughts to share? Who needs this hassle? Will my phone's built-in Wi-Fi allow me to access the Internet when I put it into a power outlet? "I know a lot about a lot of things, but I'm a master of nothing."
  2. Thank you all for your replies. Before turning off all electronics and turning on the alarm, I always double-lock the car. Pressing the car's lock button will restore walk-away locking to its default state; otherwise, it will not work. I'm going to try unlocking the approach.
  3. I recently purchased a brand new Tribeca Blue P270e Edition. Similar to my previous experience with an EPace P300e. The last vehicle I drove had a keyless entry system that let me lock and unlock the doors with the touch of a finger. In an odd quirk, the Evoque's door handle retracts when you click the button to double-lock the door. Does the approach unlocking/walk away locking method work? I haven't tried it yet. I'm worried that I won't notice if the car doesn't lock!
  4. You should be able to find them on sites like eBay and others.
  5. 18s will be listed on that website or in the rulebook. However, they do not render you or the vehicle impenetrable to potholes. A few weeks ago, my wife succeeded in puncturing the 225/50/18 tyre on our BMW X1. The 50 profile, I believe, saved the day.
  6. I would choose the CL55 AMG if it is available. The M113K engine is exceptional.
  7. Seeking to purchase a pre-owned 330e or 320i from the year 2020 or later to substitute my ageing E92 320 from 2007. I was inclined to choose the 330e hybrid, but I have heard reports of owners encountering problems related to the intricacy of the hybrid system. There appears to be an abundance of these in the used market from 2020/2021, leading me to question whether this indicates their current susceptibility to malfunctions. I am contemplating whether the alternative to fuel would be a more dependable choice. I would prefer to achieve at least the same fuel efficiency as my current vehicle, if not an improvement. Any guidance would be valued.
  8. Contact JLR customer support.
  9. Would it not be a valuable asset at such low mileage? It is quite challenging to assign a precise value; nonetheless, a preliminary estimate would be approximately $15,000. Individuals with greater familiarity with current market values may possess more accurate insights than I do. I extend my condolences for your loss to the broader family circle.
  10. A ceramic coating will not ensure the car remains cleaner. To maintain the optimal appearance of a black car, apply paint protection film (PPF) to preserve its lustre and safeguard it. Subsequently, wash the vehicle periodically, utilising a deionisation (DI) filter during the final rinse to eliminate the need for drying.
  11. I possess a 2024 Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV). I appreciate the car; yet, it presents an excessive number of issues. Maintain distance. I have taken mine to the shop over thirty times. Not worth the inconvenience. It is hoped that they will resolve issues as they progress.
  12. Perhaps you could sell it to me when you upgrade! πŸ‘
  13. I must respectfully disagree: my prior vehicles have not exhibited this behaviour, and my current 5 Series steering scarcely registers road camber. Camber run-off is predominantly associated with extreme sports cars, which appears incongruous on a family vehicle, in my humble opinion.
