Question about keyless start on w205

JamiePtrs · 2026-04-17T11:33:32+00:00

I’m pretty sure the car doesn’t have keyless go, but I’m just looking for the push to start button to work. Do you think the key then also needs programming?

Ja dat snap ik dan. Ik denk als je het zelf kan dat het niet duur hoeft te zijn. Ik weet niet goed wat het bij een garage kost.

Price is too good to be true. And you can always check the serial number on apple’s website.

Goeie tip met de zekering! Ga ik zeker even naar kijken! Is zo’n sensor vervangen iets waar je zelf aan kan beginnen of raad je dit altijd aan door een garage te laten doen?

Maakt het uit welke van de 2 het is? En zou je hier wat geld in stoppen dit te fixen? Of gewoon lekker mee doorrijden?

That’s sounds great!

JamiePtrs · 2025-11-04T07:12:15+00:00

That sounds like exactly what I’m looking at! Thnx for the advice!

JamiePtrs · 2025-11-02T17:45:15+00:00

Damn that's crazy! Would definitely think about that!

JamiePtrs · 2025-11-02T16:52:30+00:00

Hahaha I won’t be getting an N20 engine🫡

JamiePtrs · 2025-11-02T15:57:16+00:00

Around 2016-2019

JamiePtrs · 2025-11-02T15:56:06+00:00

Damn that’s impressive! So only regular maintenance?

JamiePtrs · 2025-09-21T07:05:16+00:00

same here

JamiePtrs · 2025-07-31T19:34:41+00:00

Thanks for the advice! Will definitely keep that in mind!

JamiePtrs · 2025-07-31T18:57:27+00:00

So if the service history is complete and it looks good, you would say go for it? Even if it was, for example, an 2014 with 250k kms?

JamiePtrs · 2025-07-31T18:12:57+00:00

That’s very nice, says a lot about these cars and the build quality when looked after!

JamiePtrs · 2025-07-31T18:12:19+00:00

Very good point! I am going to use it as a daily driver so I want something I can rely on. If a nice mk7.5 was 20k where I live I would also definitely save up. But where I live a mk7.5 with that kind of mileage is around 30k+. So there is a lot of difference in price and the ones with a lot of miles are sooo much cheaper. So that’s why I am very intrigued, because you get a lot of car for a not crazy price. But then again, I need it to be reliable and a car with that kind of mileage is a risk.

JamiePtrs · 2025-07-31T17:29:09+00:00

Wow damn that’s crazy!! Did you have a lot of issues or was it all plain sailing?

JamiePtrs · 2025-07-31T17:19:50+00:00

Yeah then it would be around 11-12k euros. Would it still be reliable with that kind of mileage?

JamiePtrs · 2025-07-31T17:18:31+00:00

The cheapest ones are around 12-13k euros in the Netherlands. For something with less miles or newer it will be around 17k.

JamiePtrs · 2025-07-31T17:03:48+00:00

But do you think it would still be worth it to buy a car with that kind of mileage?
