New SLK - No COMAND Manual

pos.k · 22-03-2009, 09:17 AM

Hey guys,
we picked up the new SLK - 200k with manual box

(my partners choice - not mine). The dealer has retrofitted COMAND but as yet has not come up with the manual. I wonder if anyone has a link to a PDF version online somewhere?

A couple of other teething issues - the 'factory' parktronic turned out to be a very lame aftermarket job, and the sensors, whilst nicely done are not the 'right white!' - We are still sorting that one!
The Supagard that they threw in with the first 2 services to compensate for screwing up the finance has not been applied. - we're sorting that one too!
The tyre pressure loss indication which they were supposed to code whilst preparing the car has not been done - we're sorting that as well!

Other than that we love the car - it really is fab.
I must say that the COMAND is much improved over the COMAND APS that I have in my 209. The full postcode lookup works well, and the direction display also shows the lane layout as you approach a junction, and highlights the lane you need to be in - unless of course you are, like Karen, a recent BMW convert, when you can be in whatever the hell lane you like and just cut everybody up

I wantto look into one of the smarttop gizmos that will give remote roof control and stuff. Does anyone here have one - how easy are they to fit?
I have seen some instructions on a SLK forum, but they are more aimed at non-uk cars that may or may not have the wiring in the same place

. Still a bit nervous of that one - need to sweat that one a bit more!
