<description><![CDATA[When I turn on the car, I see all the green and red lights of parktronic light up on the DASH board  for a second and after that everything turns off.<br /><br /><br />The parktronic light below the climate control....turns ON (meaning Parktronic is OFF).<br /><br />If I press the Partkronic switch ON below the climate control manually and move the car...I hear a beeping sound....two LEDS come up on the dash board for sometime and Parktronic turns off.<br /><br /><br />Now If the parktronic is malfunctioning....is it covered by warranty....I have 24000 on this R350 2006.<br /><br /><br />Another question....<br /><br />I open up the hood....find the brake fluid reservoir but still have to locate the power steering reservoir....any pointers.<br /><br />Thnks]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<br /> Jeremy Clarkson said:Winner: Mercedes-Benz R 500 SE   to not show photographer information --&gt; to not show image description --&gt; here with the id &quot;dynamic-image-navigation&quot; is used so that the innerHTML can be written to by the JS call below. --&gt; <br /> <br />  It&amp;rsquo;s not exactly a looker but then Angelina Jolie probably isn&amp;rsquo;t much good at getting the kids to school in the morning. The R 500 is a genuine breakthrough vehicle with the luxury of a saloon, the space of an MPV and a boot the size of Belgium. Pick the long wheelbase version and it becomes bigger than the Belgian Congo. Four-wheel drive means it&amp;rsquo;ll not only take you and your family to the ski resort but also negotiate the snow while you&amp;rsquo;re there. More importantly it offers the driving refinement you&amp;rsquo;d expect from a Mercedes carrying a 50 grand price tag. <br /> Mercedes R-class: The range has only recently gone on sale in Britain. There are both long and short wheelbases available but only one diesel and two petrol engines. Prices range from &amp;pound;38,470 for the 3.5 litre petrol R 350 (the 3 litre diesel R 320 CDI is &amp;pound;5 more) to &amp;pound;51,490 for a long-wheelbase R 500 with SE or Sport trim. It is built at the Mercedes factory in Alabama. ]]></description>

<title>R Class being discontinued?</title>
<link>http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=11397</link>
<description><![CDATA[That&#39;s the story I got from MB of Huntsville. They claim that they&#39;ll finish out the 2008 model year , then they&#39;re switching the R-Class line over to the GLK production. The GLK&#39;s are being built in Germany, for now, but will be built at the Alabama plant for the model year 2010 and up. <br />]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<br /> It&#39;s in German unfortunately. But you get the idea about what they&#39;re talking about. Too bad they&#39;re putting the R320 against the X5 3.0d and Q7 3.0 TDI. But I guess that&#39;s MBs fault for marketing it as an SUV/GST. :biggrin:<br /> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCu1SWgqU0w  ]]></description>

<title>R251 Star Service Manual on DVD is Now Available</title>

<description><![CDATA[MBUSA has released the Star Service Manual on DVD for the R251.  It is P/N: P-2700-251-07 and can be ordered by calling: 1-800-FOR-MERCedes.<br /><br />I have the one for the W164 ML-Class; and I find it invaluable.<br /><br />Since this one has information for the 320CDI (OM642) engine and the W164 does not, I just ordered a copy of this one for the engine information alone.]]></description>

<title>Ambient temp display</title>
<link>http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=7469</link>
<description><![CDATA[Friend with an R320 CDI wants the ambient (outdoor) temp display to read Celsius instead of Fahrenheit. <br /> So I, neighborhood Mercedes expert, say &amp;quot;no problem&amp;quot; and begin to fiddle with the steering wheel controls... nope.... then I consult the manual....nope....yeesh... it&#39;s easy to make the display show Km/H instead of MPH but for the life of me, I cant figure out how to change the temp format. Anyone have a clue??? <br />  ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<br /> We were on our way to a restaurant for dinner tonight and I saw what I believe ws an R500, however it could have been an R500. Looked like Capri Blue (Woot!) or Obsidian Black. It&#39;s actually smaller than it looks in pictures (outside at least), but on the inside it looks actually pretty big.<br /> Doesn&#39;t look as much like a hearst in person.  :cool:  <br />]]></description>

<title>Power steering fluid filling TSB</title>
<link>http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=1504</link>
<description><![CDATA[Mercedes engineering put out a new service bulletin for the power steering fluid.  <br /><br />After filling the system one should steer all the way to the lock 30 times to remove the air.  That&#39;s probably more often than most folks have been doing it, thus trapping air in the system which is difficult to remove lateron. <br /><br />]]></description>
