Installed double din navigation
BayC4S replied to jerhofer's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
thanks Jerhofer...and I agree on the fact that most OEM Navs are substandard to the aftermarket nowadays...my wife's new Denali has a decent system, but no bluetooth for calling...what a shame My MB G Wagon has the worst system of them all, hands down. Anyways, I ordered the AVIC Z2, not D2 and based off of your description of your kenwood, they sound pretty similar in their functions and capabilities....can't wait to get it into the car. Hopefully the sleeve issue that you referenced doesn't become an issue for my install team... happy trails -

That system does look great...I just bought an 02 C4S and I am having the Pioneer AVIC Z2 installed this coming Monday...in my last 99 996 I had the PCM 1 which was horrible in my opinion (by today's standards for sure). I purposely bought this car without NAV, with the intention of putting in something aftermarket...as long as it looks stock...your's certainly does look stock. Can I ask, did you move your AC controls to the lower console? I have to do that..... I also want to tint my windows, not rapper-blingy, just a light job....am I reading the last posts to suggest that we can go 10% without interference on the NAV signal reception? thanks! -
new owner warranty question
BayC4S replied to BayC4S's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
Thank you all for your input...sounds like it might be worth me shoppping around for a better priced plan....after owning a G Wagon I am afraid to own any vehicle outside of a warranty. Is anyone aware of any reputable warranty providers that serve CA? It hasn't been easy finding anything online, which is why I originally contacted my local dealer....thanks again for your input, much appreciated. -
Hi All...I am new to this forum, just bought a 2002 C4S, taking delivery in a couple of weeks. I am debating on whether or not I should buy an extended warranty or just "roll the dice." My local dealer quoted me $3651 for a five year 60k mi (additional miles, car presently has 28k) with a $100 deductible. Is this MY fairly reliable? My Mercedes G Wagon has been one service visit after another and without a warranty I'd be getting killed. Should I get the warranty or take a pass? Thanks in advance, cannot wait to get behind the wheel of this car!
