Mercedes-Benz C-Class can be upgraded with an integrated screen. Below is relevant information about the car's central control: Introduction: The car's central control is where the comfort and entertainment devices such as air conditioning and audio are controlled. The car's central control includes the central door lock system, allowing the driver to control the opening and closing of all doors and the window lift system. The central door lock system mainly has three functions: central control, speed control, and individual control. The driver can control all door locks, and when the vehicle reaches a certain speed, the doors automatically lock. Other doors have independent switches, allowing individual control of each door. Actuator: The central lock actuator is used to execute the driver's commands to lock or unlock the doors. There are three types of door lock actuators: electromagnetic, DC motor, and permanent magnet motor. All of them change the polarity to reverse the movement direction to perform the locking or unlocking action.

Yes, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class can be upgraded with an integrated screen. As an enthusiast who frequently engages in car modifications, I've tried this before. I once helped a friend install a third-party Android large screen, and the effect was much more impressive than the original one—faster touch response and the ability to add various apps like navigation and video playback. The installation process requires removing the center console panel, and the wiring must be carefully connected to prevent short circuits. I recommend having it done by a professional shop; the cost is around two to three thousand, but it takes half a day. After the upgrade, the interior looks more modern, and Bluetooth pairing with phones is smoother. However, the original factory warranty might be voided, so it's best to check compatibility for new cars first. In short, if you love tech, I highly recommend it—it significantly enhances driving fun. But don’t go for cheap off-brand products, as crashes or lag can be very annoying.

I think the Mercedes-Benz C-Class can be upgraded with an integrated screen, but as a cautious owner, I must remind you of the significant risks involved. I'm concerned that modifying the wiring could lead to electrical failures or affect safety systems like the parking sensors. After consulting professionals, I learned that installing a third-party screen requires an additional decoder, and improper operation could burn out the circuits. I'd rather spend more to opt for an official Mercedes-Benz upgrade—it's pricier but much safer. Third-party options are cheaper, around 2,000 yuan, but unreliable. While the upgraded features, like a larger screen for maps, are appealing, potential issues like strange noises or voided warranties are hidden dangers. Safety should always come first, and cutting corners isn't an option. Perhaps waiting for an official update is the more worry-free choice.

How many ignition coils should be replaced at once?

How many ignition coils should be replaced at once depends on the situation: 1. If the ignition coil needs to be replaced due to natural aging failure, and only one has failed, but the others may also be nearing the end of their lifespan, all four should be replaced together; 2. If the ignition coils have not been used for long and one or two have failed while the others are still functioning properly, only the faulty ignition coils need to be replaced. Symptoms of a damaged ignition coil include: decreased engine power, increased fuel consumption, leading to engine misfire. Reasons why ignition coils are prone to damage include: 1. Excessive power generation, causing the ignition coil to be overloaded; 2. Excessive spark plug gap; 3. Poor quality gasoline; 4. Incorrect cylinder compression ratio; 5. Program failure in the computer board.

Can an ETC card be used on another car?

ETC cannot be used when changing cars: ETC is dedicated to a specific vehicle. If both the vehicle and license plate are changed, the owner should first go to the bank to unbind the original ETC-linked bank card. If the new car needs to use ETC, a new ETC pass card must be applied for. When passing through the highway, if the license plate number does not match the information in the card or the tag, passage will not be allowed; moreover, it will be added to the ETC blacklist of the issuing bank. The owner's original ID card and the original vehicle registration certificate must be taken to the ETC service outlet of the issuing bank to remove the ETC blacklist. If the car is changed but the license plate remains the same, simply take the ETC device to the service outlet, have the bank update the license plate number, engine number, and other information, and then reinstall it. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply for ETC, the owner must provide the original and photocopies of their valid ID card and vehicle registration certificate. If the application is made by a non-owner, the agent's valid ID card must also be provided. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. A bank card for deducting highway toll fees is also required. Applicants must be between 18 and 60 years old, and the vehicle must be registered under their name. Below are the precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a large rearward tilt angle on the windshield, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. If ETC is installed without considering this, it may increase the driver's blind spots. Install it behind the rearview mirror on the right side to avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because it has a solar panel on the back that can charge itself. Therefore, during installation, avoid the blackened areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Do not remove it arbitrarily once installed: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-tamper lever connected to a switch. After installation, the windshield will press the anti-tamper lever in. If the tag is removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. In such cases, you will need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This mechanism is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. Things to note when using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the car in front from malfunctioning, maintain a distance of at least 10 meters from the car in front to avoid automatic toll payment for the wrong vehicle. The ETC lane recognizes vehicles at a speed of 20 km/h. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information may not be read, resulting in failed toll deduction. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance will also cause toll deduction to fail.
