I have a 2005 c with 17k miles. Dealer recommends an engine power flush. Heated envirolution ( spelled correctly ) detergent solution. The solution is introduced into the engine through the oil filler port and removed through the crankcase. If memory serves running cleaning fluid through the main bearings in a bad practice . Has anyone ever heard of this process.

Some tips for you snow bunnies 1. If you don't know how to drive in snow use ESP or better yet stay home. 2. If you do know how to drive in snow shut off ESP and stay alert to what the cars doing. 3. AWD with snow or A/T tires are best. W/O snow or A/T's 2nd best. 4. RWD with snows or A/T ok (4 position better then 2, W/O them stay home. 5. With RWD if you have to drive PUT SOME WEIGHT IN THE TRUNK ! ! 200# will do nicely, sand bags, kitty litter, your MIL. 6. Yes a FWD car will GO better than RWD but a RWD will STOP better. Just drop your gears down. Try that with a FWD (360)! ! 7. The weight over the drive wheels, gradual Accel & Decel, tire tread & common sense are the snow driving keys. 8. And finally (not to bore you anymore) take the car to an empty parking lot in the snow and do some 360's, starts, stops, etc. I did just that with my 300 and with original tires, weight in the trunk it does fine in the snow. Also looks great. |

Replying to: roma3 (Jun 21, 2004 3:38 pm) Have you had any problems with the engine? Sounds like a dealer get rich scheme to me.

Replying to: bdyment (Feb 23, 2005 10:03 am) Somehow I suspect that if one checks the Owners' Manual, they would find that no such maintenance is recommended or required. Unless the dealership can show a document from DC (such as a service bulletin) explicitly spelling out such a maintenance procedure, then it is a "Dealer get rich scheme." Best Regards, Shipo |

Replying to: biglescobar (Feb 23, 2005 5:09 pm) How did you find out standard features and options for '06 models? I've ordered an '06 but we're guessing at '05 options ... |
