E250 active bonnet malfunction
Discussion
Please help save me some money!
I’ve had a very minor incident in above car today, tapped someone from behind completely my fault really stupid things on my mind not paying attention feel like a total idiot but luckily no damage can see on either car.
However I know have this active bonnet malfunction see owners manual message which is stopping front sensors working. In the manual says can be reset has a couple of awful diagrams but I can’t get the message to go.
Called a specialist said 9 times out of 10 it’s just a case of Manual reset no parts required but it’s a £90 diagnostic minimum.
Would like to avoid this if it’s something I can easily reset. Can anyone help please??

If you cannot reset it - then yes it will need to go onto a STAR (MB diagnostic kit) for fault codes analysis and then reset.
Other devices can read the codes but sometimes a false economy. My MB dealer charges £130 for diagnosis only. So if somebody reads and resets for £90, think it good value.

The £90 is just to look at it I think not to necessarily do anything.I

Im thinking of getting a E350.
When you crashed yours, did you have to pay for the barrier ? What did that cost ? :-)

I never ever got a bill for the barrier - it was nearly 3 years ago (car was almost new).Im thinking of getting a E350.

Taking this even more off topic - the total insurance bill for that incident was less than half the bill for a door being fixed on a friends 53 plate Volvo (accident management hire car fiasco).
