So long story short after 16 hours of struggle, and locking only set of keys in the trunk i took it on 400 mile road trip next day. Right in the middle of the trip at 3 am car displays error saying that brakes need immediate service and air pump for suspension stops working. So im in the middle of nowhere, no AAA, its pouring, car is all the way to the ground, and the worst part there is no service. Man that was scary. Eventually after towing it back home and receiving estimate for the repairs I just sold the car as is. From this i learned
1- let professionals deal with it.
2- never buy benz without warranty.
