Hi All,

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to permanently have the re-circulation on for W212? Yesterday i got caught in very slow traffic and it keeps going off every 2 mins or so. Very frustrating.

Thanks very much!

The W204 is programmed to be active for 30 minutes before it lets external air in. The W212 only sustains re-circulation for 2 minutes each time??? That's mad. Bring it back to C&C and get them to re-programme it?

Mine w212 is not constant . Sometimes 2-5 mins , sometimes 10-20 mins . From what I know , no way to re-programme . Silly setting ! Not for our country for sure . Maybe Europe air quality is better . Anyone knows where to programme pls start a thread to inform all our bros here . Thanks in advance .

Funny lor... I keep wondering why my W211 never get exhaust smell from outside when I never fiddle with the recirculation button? :whistle:

Is this just in W212 and W204?

No bro.... I very sensitive to outside smog. My wife's Scirocco have to switch on circulation all the time when car starts. If not, I will notice outside smog coming in within minutes. But not the case for my W211. Hmm..... wonder why....

Uncle, it is becos 1) W211 re-circ resets every abt 20+mins, 2) unless stationery behind a van or following really foul smelling lorry, the outside smell is minimal (I think W211 carbon filter quite effective). I have monitored for quite some time liao :becky: On NSW I forgot to reset the button sometimes for extended distance becos there is no smell at all, only freshness (re-circ off u will feel fresher, more oxygen I guess). Longer re-circ time is one of the few points that makes W211 more practical to me. Hope someone can crack or force Merc-SG to do special programming for W212. Cheers!
