Ive got a cheap OBD reader, is there any advantage in getting a better one? Anything Mercedes specific. I cant afford STAR but is there anything cheaper out there or recommendations?

Have a look at the iCarsoft diagnostic tools, they do specific Mercedes variants. I bought one for our SLK and it's very good for the money, far more advanced than the cheap code readers.

The iCarsoft is light years ahead of the 'plug in and talk to your tablet' ones, just be careful if you select the 'Road Test' function! smile
