Repair Questions and Answers

Question: 1998 Mercedes C230 4
cyl mileage: 21,000. Hi guys, I hope you can help. My
problem is that my sunroof is stuck open and I can't get
it to close. Also my rear driver side window is stuck
open (my husband fixed it by sticking a piece of wood in
it to hold the window up). Okay you guys stop laughing.
My husband really is extremely smart and very
mechanical, but when I told him about the problem he
just sat there and said those five little words that I
dread "honey take it to the dealer" oh please do you
have any idea what a hassle it is to take my car to the
dealer. Well, let me tell you the last time I had to
take it in to the dealer it took me three hours to just
drop it off and get a rental car and I had an
appointment. So please if you could e-mail me back with
some information for my husband that would be great.
Thank you so much!
Answer: Being mechanics ourselves, we can
understand your husband’s response. Why fix what someone
else should do under warranty. Your husband’s response
sounds like something we would say under same or similar
circumstances.
Question: 2000
Mercedes Benz C230 Mileage: 79,000. The radio/stereo
antenna is integrated in my back windshield, and I am
having problems with static. The dealer suggested
re-tinting since the tint put on by the first owner was
a "metallic-type" tint it would have an effect. I paid
$300 to re-tint with a non-metallic tint. My radio still
has static. I have contacted the dealer once again and
now they say there is something wrong with the wiring in
the radio. Can you help me?
Answer: We doubt there is anything wrong with
the wiring in your radio. It has been our experience
that after market window tint can cause static and poor
reception in vehicles that have radio antennas built
into the rear window. Removing the tint improves the
radio reception but still leaves something to be
desired, especially on AM.
