just thought you should know my wife has this issue on her '06, it is intermittent, but coincidentally always worked when the dealer looked at it, they want a few hundred bucks to replace the part, its not the cable you are using! Good luck, we are trading it in, but not for that reason.
I'm 65 and got rid of a Mercedes SUV ( :lemon: :lemon: horrible car) for my 2006 xB and have never looked back. On mine I had an advertising decal applied to the back window, which helped assuage my ego a little in the early months of ownership.
My xB is at 132Kmiles and HAS NEVER HAD A FAILURE! Of any kind! And, it delivers 29 to 35 MPG on regular gas. The only pampering it gets is synthetic oil.
Then, we got rid of a low end Lexus (which was a good car) and bought an xA. Another great car.
I'd rather pay extra for synthetic and run it 7K miles than non-synthetic and run 3.5K miles which so many people have fallen into (tricked by the oil industry just a little.)
Yes, move to synthetic.
04 xA: now at 125,000 and zero repairs. We did just replace shocks and struts.
Both get 30 MPG or better. Both sorta fun to drive. Both have high utility in terms of cargo space and flexible interior use. Both holding their own in terms of value.
