QUOTE(19 Degree South @ Aug 2 2018, 11:57 AM) You r one lucky dude! Not many SC is willing to provide courtesy car. The only one I know of is Auto Bavaria! They usually provide but not Mercedes! they cannot deny one also cause its a new car. twice masuk workshop for repair, twice for checking. When go in for repair and replacement they pickup from home. The premium price you pay is for their after sale services and also the qualtiy lah. Need to push them also. If no ask, they wont update and diam diam only. |

When i start e250 w213, the aircond does not blow any air hot/cool on the driver side but it blows on my feet and its damn cold. I have changed the settings not to blow air on the foot side but it is still blowing. After i drive for few kilometers only it blows air to me. Top damn hot, foot damn cold. Passenger side no problem. Anyone encounter the same problem as me?

QUOTE(sumtuckieeeee @ Sep 30 2018, 06:08 PM) I know this might not be the correct thread but I'm considering a a200 w176 2014 car. Is there anything I should check prior to purchase? maybe u can have a look at bmw 118i - free maintenace for 5 years for new car. or can try this at bmw premium selectionActually I'm contemplating between the new civic and the a200. Would appreciate if u guys could give some feedbacks on the a200 P/s: I've got a w205 at home as well. The w176 mainly used for daily drive. http://www.autoselection.com.my/products/3...0i-M-Sport.html chloe999 liked this post

Still waiting for updates. Just got the car back this morning since July? hahahaha with the E250 clocking at more than 8000km (got the car @1k) . They are supposed to deliver the car last Saturday but when they were checking the car they found out the CD player is stucked. So they need to replace the whole thing on Monday and deliver it today. Good thing about their repair is they pick up n send it back @ home. Got extra 2 years warranty and free service |

QUOTE(lil_flank @ Dec 11 2018, 06:46 PM) Wow, tat is freaking long. How many times free service? Will u miss the E250? Lol.. 5 years service + 2 years extended warranty. The E250 was a boring car. lol. E300 looks nicer with the AMG kit. From my own view, the huge display is on the love-hate. Sometimes I feels like they are so lazy to design it and decided to throw a long tablet on the dash for all their new models. I love the digital display on the C class facelift. but on the bright side, its high res and nice to see lol. The very damn small and lwo res screen on the GLC made my eye sore   |

QUOTE(19 Degree South @ Dec 11 2018, 06:21 PM) I think he got the E klass as a courtersy car! Lucky him! Think most ppl don't get the luck! MBM is only looking at sales fig , they don't give a damn on their dealers' after sales service! I guess cause they had no choice but to give a courtesy car. Its really a new car and few times masuk workshop. The problem with them is, they don't keep the stock here. Sold thousands of car and they don't even expect their cars to have 0 defect? LOL. Masuk workshop to repair, then say oh we found the problem but need to wait stock from Singapore. If Singapore don't have, need to wait from Germany. Damn stupid. |

QUOTE(wild_card_my @ Dec 12 2018, 03:36 PM) Guys, I'm looking into E300 bluetech hybrid, W212, AMG body-kit which is standard for this Malaysian model. I believe it is a turbodiesel with non-plugin hybrid. I'm thinking f getting the 2016 units, just before they got phased out for W213. These currently go for 180k, could be lower after nego make sure to use Euro 5 diesel. I saw one E300 bluetec hybrid with lots of black smokes on the highway before.Anything that I should look out for? Warranty is transferable to new owner right? Any issues with our diesel? I plan on bringing mechanic for viewing or taking the car for inspection after booking, but it is nice to know if you Merc sifus have any input on my choice. |

QUOTE(wild_card_my @ Dec 12 2018, 03:42 PM) That is after I bought it. I can't be sure if the current owners are using Euro 5 diesel. Any way for me to check? Would normal/merc-specialized mechanic know about it? What should i ask? they have that urea thing... err...? Myabe you can try and check Auto Selection Glenmarie. I saw one ad 2015 E300 with 65k mileage @RM168k. For me I'd go for this dealer if I want to buy 2nd hand car as they are trusted and well established. For checking, you can bring to your own trusted mechanic or if you don't have any you can try wearnes. |
