I recently acquired a 2014 E220 SE with 63,000 miles and a comprehensive dealer history; it is a well-maintained vehicle. However, I have a few enquiries that I hope you can assist with.

The volume of the rear parking sensor is exceedingly low; is there a method to amplify it? The front is quite loud.


The interior polar lights are adjusted to the maximum level yet remain hardly perceptible. Is there a method to enhance their brightness?
Thank you in advance.

If you require an MB specialist in your vicinity, Alex Crow in Stowmarket is available. Who am I deceiving? You will undoubtedly require one eventually.
It is hoped that another someone may be able to provide guidance regarding your concerns.

Is any of this recognisable from your W212?

I believe the facelift models exhibit distinct differences.
