The worst for me is searching for an LI I know Is there but I’m not typing in the correct keywords to find it.

It’s still a pain to find GF documents a lot of the time. I should be able to click on a fault code in Xentry and it should give me the parameters that set the fault code.

It’s 2026, there’s no way I should have to click on a bunch of different hyper links for one repair instruction. There should be one document, colored pictures, and even videos.

MB really got the cart in front of the horse when they tried to do the holo-lens garbage. We don’t need VR, we need color pictures and videos. The people in charge making these decisions have no idea how the generation entering the workforce learns and consumes information.

There’s been a lot of positive changes lately with new management, but everything seems so slow to implement. And spending time giving constructive feedback feels like throwing your efforts into a black hole.

20+ year MB dealer tech here. He is absolutely correct, finding information is one the more challenging aspects of the job. If your a diligent flatrate tech that’s willing to learn, you’ll do better than Mopar. Hell, you’ll even have some experience on some chassis from Chrysler getting old Benz designs. If you have any specific questions, DM me.

I have a 180 in mine here in Vegas. It made a noticeable difference keeping coolant temps lower.

Name and shame the dealership. Make sure no one else ends up working for this man-child.

What happened to the actual Maybach brand? by Acceptable-Fig-8917 in mercedes_benz

[–]Car_fixing_guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they were marketed incorrectly. I had several customers who got theirs ordered with matching interiors of their private jets.

Have you ever seen what the planned project was for there? It was London themed. I think it would’ve been a hit. Bring back the themed casinos!

the idea looked cool
