|  Leaky Rearview Mirror Replacement Hey Guys/Gals! I found this thread at Benzworld and felt it to be of importance to share. Myself and some others, unfortunately, did not get to take advantage of this, but some of you may be able to. I posted this here in the R170 area because I'm not aware of this being a problem with the R171s. It seems some of the rear view mirrors that are "leaking" can be replaced by the manufacturer (not MB, but another distributor, see thread) at no charge. So read the thread and see if this could be beneficial to you. Kudos to "steves" for the find. http://www.benzworld.org/forums/r170...od-ending.html Good Luck and Happy Motoring!

|  I was able to take advantage of this and it's great! The dealer wouldn't support the issues as it is an out-of-warranty problem for me, but the mirror OEM did. If you have this problem, give them a call! Andy |

| Update Thought I'd let you guys know the "replacement" I bought off ebay somehow contracted the lava lamp sickness. So...that being the case, I contacted these nice folks, Dani (female), in particular, and had a replacement sent to me here in Germany. Now...IF ONLY MY CAR WOULD GET HERE!!!!

| I can tell you, Dani (in the link to Benzworld) really took care of the problem for me. I called one day, then emailed her a pic. then the next day she had shipped my mirror. Great way to take care of someone! |
