Correction, no OBDII port on your C140. :-) -----Original Message----- From: Mercedes [mailto:mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com] On Behalf Of Dan Penoff Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2013 10:34 PM To: Mercedes Discussion List Subject: Re: [MBZ] ODBII & MB Diagnostic Connector
I would take exception to that. Any 1996 and later car sold in the US had to have ODBII. I just looked at a 96 S600 that was at the local dealer yesterday and it had the connector right by the parking brake pedal. And they wanted an exorbitant amount of money for the car, too.
