So, assuming this would actually work, what would be necessary to run it? I recall some discussion of a very specific laptop model for reasons I never was clear about. http://www.mbstarshop.com/service/mercedes-xentry-das-201512-torrent-free-download-10132.html ??? --JC On 6/14/16 3:11

I can't comment on your car specifically, as I'm not familiar with the capabilities of the Xentry system relative to your model, but I would expect that any stored faults will show up, and in doing so, will point at the source of the issue. The Xentry system does a good job of getting into the

Boatloads of them, all Chinee knockoffs, readily available. You can get complete systems with a laptop for $500-$600, and with just a USB hard drive and the cables and mux for around $300, I think. You can't do squat on later model cars without one. Dan > On Jun 14, 2016, at 2:29 PM, Meade

Now you're singin' my song! I had to take in the dogde van in for a recall to replace the fobik. I figgered that was a cheep way to get a couple new fobik "keys" The new fobik screwed up several other things. So while I got "keys" with 0 on the counters, there were tradeoffs that were

do these fobik systems have a real ignition switch behind them like a key switch? If so, you could chop (dremel) off the fobik stuff and maybe turn the switch with a screwdriver like on a 124. (after you take out the lock) Bob Rentfro via Mercedes June 14,

Nope. The DAS system incorporates the operation of a bunch of different modules in the car, including the engine, transmission and security, if I recall. There are three or four involved with this, so if one craps out ou have to buy a new one and have the $tealer install and code it, or go to

One of the reasons I bailed from my W220. If any part of the DAS fails, you're pretty much screwed, as the fix requires replacing everything in the system unless you have access to a Xentry system, and in some cases not even that. Pretty much a $tealership only repair. Gawd I love my W126
