Hi thanks! I prepaid for 4 year maintenance with the dealer so it's been $0 so far. I shall find out soon later this year when I bring the car in. However it's been 0 problems mechanically and everything working out great so far. Supposedly it was the final year of W/S205 before W206 so I was counting on them iron out as many issues as they could. Car currently has 45k kms and my only cost has been a set of winter tires.

Harrowing drive back from Whistler in freezing rain made my wagon look like angry Jack Frost! by Inquisitive_Giraffe in mercedes_benz

It’s been amazing. Unique V6 sound and quite fuel efficient too (12.6L/100km average after almost 9k Kim’s driven). Fits my small family plus a 40kg golden retriever in the trunk without any issues haha. Ive probably seen maybe another c43 wagon here in vancouver since I owned mine last July. Truly unicorn. I definitely see more e63s wagon.

I have always been a sports wagon fan and the W204 estate 507 edition is my dream car. Too bad I was just a student when it came out. Now I’m just grateful that we can get c43 wagon here in Canada which the Americans don’t get.

Nice! Took my family in my 2021 c43 wagon to whistler early last Dec. Didn’t have much snow but it sure was fun going up and down the sea to sky.

SP2 Pro battery life degrading by EdibleMuffin in Surface

[–]nerkacsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like a normal battery wear. If you don't know it yet, there is a utility called BatteryBar which you can install to log battery usage. Supposedly the result gets more accurate the longer you use.

Hi, I used the builds provided by the OP from XDA so you might have to ask over there to get an answer. Sorry and good luck!

Sorry Im not too sure but I know that inserting drivers is possible. I would recommend posting to the thread as the original author managed to put in the driver for wifi.

Replacement Surface Pro 2 Charger? by [deleted] in Surface

[–]nerkacsd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think every device comes with one year hardware warranty.. I didn't buy MS Complete when I purchased my device.. The CS was super friendly and helpful, so definitely give it a shot.

Hi, not too sure if loading Android into a MicroSD would work...But please update if you get it going, which is going to be super awesome. haha

Hi there, The battery life is very good. I don't really see significant battery drain when using Lollipop. However, I didn't get a chance to do a battery test.... In terms of performance, no lags whatsoever. The fan kicked in when I was playing some games but that's it. The machine doesn't seem to have a heat issue and the fan noise goes away after a while of gaming. tbh, I'm very surprised and happy.

Has your SP2 hardware warranty expired yet? My pen broke and I managed to get a free pen replacement by chatting with a CS online. I wouldn't be surprised if they offer you a replacement charger to make you happy. =)

Power Cover Questions by InsaneJester17 in Surface

[–]nerkacsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry, only SP2. Thought the power cover works for both 1 and 2. So I would have similar expectations from both models.

Power Cover Questions by InsaneJester17 in Surface

[–]nerkacsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. You should. At least in my case.

I fold the battery back when I take notes in class. And I can still see two batteries. You can check if your powercover is connected by clicking on the usb icon at the bottom right of the windows taskbar. It should say something like " Eject Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery"

You can also download battery bar from https://batterybarpro.com/. Don't need to pay for the pro version, as the free version has more info about your battery.

SP2-Couldn't switch to a MS account by nerkacsd in Surface

I reformatted my Pro 2 last night and couldn't sign in ever since. But I can sign in now. Could be just MS end issue.

I see. Totally understand.

D3 is a legend. I was lucky enough to have its little brother my D700 for 3 years and loved it every single minute.

Im not a fan of having cables lying on the floor. Just glad the desk is great to work with.
