This is for you guys who're thinking about getting the GLC200 SUV and would like a better idea of what it looks like and what it comes with.  PS: Mine's from C&C.

The rotating control knob looks better with the AMG badge, and the cup holder looks more classy with the metallic frame.

Added a flash of red to the start-stop button...

Getting really good mileage with it! 646km on 1 tank! :D

Not exactly... u have to use the Other selection From Reset... to actually see what u are achieving for one tank of fuel till reserve tank. 

Mine is 250d... im averaging ard 650km per tank avg speed 20km/h using Comfort mode with 20inch AMG rims.... my frens averaging ard 850km/tank with 19in rims and 1 guy did 925km/tank on ECO mode with 19in rims... of coz their avg speed is higher.IMG-20170706-WA0007.thumb.jpg.a9b1435338ea2c0702e79c2500bd050f.jpg

Got some nice metal air valve covers with the emblem. Wanna replace the centre caps soon! ^_^

I did some read up on these air valve caps and their effect on TPMS internal sensors. Corrosion due to the material used for the special valves with these aluminum valve caps are top issues overseas but that is also partly because they have snow and salt on their wheels once a year.

Another school of thought is that the special TPMS air valves acts as an antennae to allow the communication of the internally mounted sensors with the vehicular body TPMS control unit. so putting an aluminum cap might mess with the signal.

I keep my dull grey plastic caps on despite it being an eyesore..LOL

Thanks for the info man! Never knew there were such issues...  I'll see if C&C sells the metal ones with the chrome plated and ABS interior. Those are supposed to work fine. ^_^

Really? Hmm... Mine was similar +/- a couple of km... Let me monitor to see if it stays accurate..

Seems more efficient now after running in the engine for the past 3000km.

Getting 614km with 2 bars left on the petrol gauge. Fuel consumption @ 9.4l/100km. Not bad in my opinion! :)
