Bro I test drove a 2008/09 E230 W211 at Cheras-Kajang dealer and the V6 engine sounded oh-so-sweet and powerful. CBU comes with maroon leather, sun roof, 17 inch rims, LCD displa and many more toys inside.

But I foresee this will be heavier to maintain cause you don't get this models quite commonly. But at around RM 78+K, it is very very tempting.

Hello. Can anyone recommend a good 3rd party mechanic to repair and service Mercs? Hopefully reasonable prices as well.

Mr Chiam near Selayang , 0122125924

Would like to check with the Merc Sifus here on their knowledge of the GLC200/250

Notice this models have Autonomous PARTIAL braking.... compared to say the E200 (W213) which have Autonomous Braking...

Does the PARTIAL means it will only reduce the speed but wont stop the car totally? Means u still bang but, hopefully, bang softer? dry.gif

As usual Mercedes malaysia/HapSeng/Cycle&Carriage website are vague at best..

When I took my GLC250, the SA from HSS told me the partial is 30% when the speed is above 60km/h. So far, I never have the opportunity to experience this autonomous partial brake. Most of the time the Collision Prevent Assist triggers the alarm and I naturally step on the brake.

Same experience here! A loud beep and I instinctly step on the brake,Liao!

Ha ha, l am not alone to think that feature is redundant... Ya, the beep is so loud that the first action should be stepping on the brake! But, that alarm beep seems to happen above certain speed and the distance to hit, that is how I feel. Not sure if it is indeed designed in that way. If the speed and distance are out of the ranges it functions, merely the red triangle symbol appears on the instrument display.

Mine was on the NSE! when the front car sudden brake , the beep sounded to prevent collision! Normal drive only the triangle appear now and then!

Thanks for the feedback sir.

I got clarification from Mercedes that the GLC is "partial brake application" ie up to 60% , while E class is "Full brake application" upto 100%.

The beep helps, but sometimes people panic I suppose...

Also beeping is very common these days... even my lorry also have lights when you are in "caution zone" and beeps like crazy when $hit is about to hit the fan...

Actually, if human continue to drive cars (and not robots), better not to have 100%, it happened to me at NS highway, after a turn near Proton City, there was a sudden slow traffic. I stepped on brake and noted the car behind me was still speeding. I quickly swung to left as the car still had momentum. At the end, 5 cars piled up and I was excluded from the sandwich. Machines, at this moment, can't predict how crazy other drivers are.

I got caught in a 4 car pile up vbefore... was 3rd car.. the last car behind me was a Taxi.

Everyone claimed the taxi.. and we didnt lose our NCD.

Anyway, my thoughts when it comes to accidents, as long as the occupants are not hurt thats fine, car can fix/got insurance...

Same reason i was so tempted with the upcoming XC60 launching mid Jan

Just like the 'park assist function '! I would have fallen asleep after the car has finished parking itself! Lady driver would welcome this function ! No offence to lady driver though! of all the latest car features, I am only keen on the adaptive cruise control ! The 360 camera is also a Beri good feature!

Oh, that park assist is misleading. Actually, I had to respray my bonnet, one week after the collection, due to it. I was stopping at a slope. Off my engine. Unfortunately, I got a whatsapp msg and I read it. I should have opened the door to activate the auto parking for the gearbox and handbrake. But, I didn't. I watched the instrument display and saw a light blue color symbol of "P". I thought the car gearbox is at Park position because I forgot this was my new car. For my previous F30, a "P" near that location means gearbox is at Park position. I let go the brake and the car rolled so fast to a wall pillar. I had a "V" shape for my bonnet!

I thought once you engage the P gear, the handbrake is auto engage?

I think this does not apply to GLC250, you have to open the driver door to automatically engage the gearbox park and handbrake together. If you park at slope, engage the gearbox Park without the handbrake, the car still rolls a short distance (about half of perimeter for the wheel as I was told by the SA).

For my case, I believe I set the gearbox to Neutral but I thought it was at Park position (due to the light blue symbol for Park Assist). That was the reason the car rolled for about 20 to 30 meters. You can see this image, there are two P symbol, one is next to Neutral position for the gear and another is a light blue color P at the bottom (next to the temperature). Really have to adjust myself to understand the difference between two P.

Hi everyone, am running a survey for an assignment and have shared it with my own network but still need help from more people and figured this would be a place to get more help on this. Anyone, if you feel like helping out, can just click on this Google Form to help me fill up the survey.

Go rupee old klang road autocity. They are pro at recond mercedes e class and bmw 5 series. Priced competitively. With great service outlets and unbelievably cheap for the maintenance part. So far i didnt regret buying from this dealer.

go autoraco and mekatronic at cheras. They know every issue with mercedes and recommend the suitable parts which will prevent u from forking to much on maintenance.
