Add my "amens" and Season's Greetings! This forum has been tremendouslly helpful with my "new" adventure owning a Mercedes Diesel. I joined MBCanada Forum also, but unfortunately, there's virtually nothing there in terms of real help. Most threads just sit there with a couple of replies for days and weeks- and this morning, this kind of crap was sitting at the top of the list. Someone wrote-

"So again you can see how the paranoid fools at Mercedes-Benz treat this website. Do you know what they've done now? The have started banning IP addresses from MBCanada.com. They banned my IP so I am no longer able to get on the media sites, the main Mercedes-Benz.com site or even the DaimlerChrysler site. I can visit the Canadian MB sites but all other ones won't work. These guys are the biggest bunch of paranoid fools I've ever come across".

Seems that Mercedes organization here in Canada doesn't like freedom of speech surrounding their products! Probably dead set against having owners truly understanding their cars, potentially doing their own maintenance, repairs, etc. Maybe this explains why the MBCanada Forum doesn't have anything really helpful on it- people who divulge helpful information are getting punished for doing so!

I'm thankful for mercedesshop.com which allows people to ask any question, and provide hundreds and thousands of useful answers!
