    Hello all and thanks in advance for any feedback. Just purchased 18 Sunseeker 2400. Like the coach but not a huge fan of the front captains chairs. Has anyone successfully replaced them?

    Retractable Windshield Shades - Mercedes

    So here is my question. Can I install the retractable windshield shades that I see on some higher end Foresters on my 2016 Sunseeker MBS 2400R? Where would I get them? Seems as though it must be possible. Thanks, Dave

    Mercedes Diesel vs Ford V10 MPG per Speed

    I always test different cars I buy to see the difference in actual mpg when driving at 55, 65, and 75 mph. I find it usually more significant than expected by other's accounts. Recently I tried it with my 2011 Buick LaCrosse V6 which I get a measly 12 mpg driving 3-4 miles at a time around...

    Mercedes MBE 4000 engine

    Just curious how reliable the big Mercedes engine is in the older Dynamax Grand Sport mororhomes are and how they are holding up? I have read on other forums (trucker forums) that they are something to stay away from and their engine break is not something to be proud of. Also can parts still...

    2017 Sunseeker (Mercedes Chassis) Awning Power Source

    A tree jumped out of nowhere when I was backing (I WAS using the mirrors and backup camera, but no spotter) and caught the edge of a limp that tweaked my awing a bit. It is slightly misaligned, and I assume binding. I tried the power and it worked a bit then stopped having power. I assume I...

    Are those of you who bought the Mercedes diesel set up over the Ford

    are you happy you did or do you question your choice? Or are there things you wish you had done different? Was the extra money for the Mercedes Diesel worth it, now that you have owned it? Do any of you feel like you would go with the Ford if you had to do it over? Your likes and dislikes...

    Alaskan Tour with Mercedes Sprinter MBS

    Just returned from a 11,000+ mile 3.5 week round trip tour from Minnesota to Alaska. Odometer went from 8500 to 19800. The trip through Alberta, British Columbia and the Yukon was just as great as Alaska. No malfunctions with the Sunseeker MBS. Not many rock chips but the windshield did get a...

    Warranty headaches - maybe a Mercedes issue

    Kudos to RnR RV in Spokane for trying to track down 2 error codes since the day we left Grand Rapids with our new Isata 3. MHS2GO not much help after the purchase was complete. Got the errors within a hour of leaving, immediately went back, and all they said was to ignore them. As soon as the...

    Mercedes Diesel Question - RV Sales Line?

    We are thinking of moving to a motor home and loved the Dynamax Isata 3 with the full wall slide. When I went to the dealer he asked how we were going to use it. Right now we would be looking at occasional summer camping and about a max of 5,000 miles per year. He stated that we should avoid...

    Mercedes dashboard warning lights and water temp

    My 2015 MBS has 12k on it and had an episode last week. As I pulled out of Walmart, it pulled hard to the right, we could here a brake dragging on the right and two dashboard warning icons came on. One looks like a tire, the other looks like vehicle swerving back and forth. Pages 219-220 in the...

    Owner Self-service on MB engine/chassis

    Haven't been able to find this anywhere in the forum. I placed our order for a Solera yesterday at the Greensboro NC RV show. We are downsizing from a 38 footer with Cummins Diesel. Due to the size and volume of the fluids (26qts of oil) I have always had Cummins shop do my maintenance. The MB...

    Berkshire with a Mercedes Engine Question

    Hi! We are new (2nd owner) RV'ers! We just bought a '08 Berkshire with an Mercedes engine & took the pusher down to have an oil change & lube. It appears that Speedco does not work on this type of Mercedes engine much and did not have the Allan wrench to take off the oil pan! I am wondering...
