vinceching is referring to an O7 and this issue is with the 08's

fredi is in Canada so he doesn't have a US model.

My dealership, Benzel Bush, is "the" dealerhip here in my location - 2 minutes from NYC. They have an excellent reputation. I went in there insisting that a "friend" of mine (I was referring to a post I had read on here) has an 08 and that his mirror tilts and that I wasn't going to leave until mine did the same thing.

After they researched it in the system they told me that it isn't available on the new 08 models. I then reminded them yet again *stretching the truth" that my "friend" here in NJ had it on his. I explained to them that even though the books claim that it isn't available it is. I then watched the head tech and a mechanic connect my car to the computer for 30 minutes with frustrated looks on their faces.

They drove the car out of the shop and informed me that it can't be done and that they tried every back door.

This is the information I have on this. If anyone with an 08 US ML350 has had this done, please let us all know the exact information for it appears to be an issue with many people including myself.

Thank you........

EDIT UPDATE:
I just spoke with Steve from the dealer in Long Island and he confirmed that it isn't available on the 08 model.
