Trunk does not close properly.

This is a common problem. The actuators that work the locks are actually very reliable, (but occaisionally go bad so I wouldn't rule them out). The most likely cause is a vacuum leak. Could be the tubing, (gets brittle and cracks with age), or connector. The hardest part is traciing the leak. Takes time and patience. I would start at the door or trunk lid and work backwards until you find the leak, then repair. If you need parts for this I also have a great source, has always proven reliable for me. Rick at Newton AutoHaus has several wrecks that he can remove parts from and ship, also has access to new ones, and a well stocked parts dept. He is a mercedes certified mechanic that left the mercedes svc dept and went out on his own many years ago. He can also help you on the phone if you get "stuck". Here is his #: 828-466-1759. Hope this is helpful. Good Luck!

It sounds like the cluster lost it's version coding and went to default mode. I would recommend having the cluster scanned for codes and version coded.

Over heating

yes you can replace it yourself easily.it only takes about 40 minutes to change and the easiest way to know where to look for it is to follow the top hose for the readiator to the motor.there will be a clamp to remove the hose and then there will be 2 bolts that hold the housing on and you will see the thermostat under the housing when you pullit out

My 2004 mercedes-benz s500 radio turns on then says system unavailable and shuts off. I've tried to reset it to no avail

post all things that fail and work both all maters engine starts , runs , drives ok ,day or night? all other electrical things on the car ,as in ALL do in fact work correctly? or just the RADIO on the car fails. many cars now the RADIO is part of the CAN , the car Area Network. and if that fails so does the RADIO. if is in fact a factory RADIO there from MB. what to do. well check all fuses first. never skip the easy first step and a 50cent cure.. next scan the USA? OBD2 scan port, and look for Radio errors like COMM failures codes. can I assume this RADIO is not SDAR , satelite radio if is did you path the subscription bills? $$$$$$ or the RD is base Radio and both are in fact CAN bus controlled so yes, it must be scanned first, after fuses sorry this is no simple 80s radio, not at all and is antitheft protected too. i request this post be moved to cars and not computers. here is more than 1 fuse, the RD shows 2, F1 and F2 my online docs, are not so good, on all MB. get the car scanned in any shop. see the DTC error codes. next.
