난이도 & 준비물

증상

This is the car which will replace the E91 320d which I have been using since the tail end of last year.I hadn't been looking to change the E91 to any serious degree, however with the realisation that I didn't want to use my Golf Clubsport as a daily.. I started to have a little look around at what I could get to bridge the tech-gap between the E91 and what I wanted from a daily in 2026. My list of requirements is quite small really; enough space for Barney, good headlights, cruise control and Apple CarPlay to stream music/use Waze.It just happened to be that a guy I know through Instagram had

The Night Edition I believe has some nice front seats as well.I've considered getting one when my CLS sells, but I don't want another diesel and 42mpg at 70mph seems quite low still to me, especially as it'll be closer to 39/40 when you come to fill up.Also, Merc's are terrible for digital radio it seems.I'd definitely keep the 18s and go silver, or go no bigger than 19s. The 19s on my CLS with the AMG suspension is quite firm.Yeah the drive was pretty grim in places with hellish traffic jams/stop-start periods. But even so, I am certain that my E91 would have returned 50mpg on the same journey and from what I have read, an equivalent aged F11/F31 20d would have returned even better economy again.I have noticed that the auto gearbox in the Mercedes will hang onto gears a little longer than I think is necessary.. for example, it will change to 7th gear at ~1800rpm if left in auto, but you can shift to 7th manually a good few 000rpms lower than that and does not cause the engine to labour or struggle at all. The same goes for other gears too, so I feel like I'm in a gear lower than I should/could be and there will be a penalty in consumption to pay for that.I've not actually listened to DAB once since I bought it, sounds like I better steer clear of it and stick to Spotify! Yeah I can imagine it not being much fun! It's interesting that the Merc diesels seem less economical than the BMW ones. Yeah the gearboxes on these do hold gears longer. Mine won't go into 7th until I am doing 75mph indicated (private road, officer), but in manual mode I can put it into 7th at 55mph indicated, so when I am going to be on the motorway / A roads for while, I put it in manual and into 7th asap.Annoyingly, the AMG Night Edition was a run out model and never received the 9 speed box, which I think would have been better for economy and in general.Re DAB, I think it improved on later cars
