Perform SCN Coding for SCR and VGS – 2012-2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, GL-Class, GLE-Class, GLK-Class, & ML-Class

This is to notify you of an Emission Service Campaign launch to update the SCN coding for SCR and VGS on 133 Model Year (“MY”) 2012-2016 E-Class, GL-Class, GLE-Class, GLK-Class, and ML-Class (166, 204, 212 platforms) vehicles. The vehicles will be visible and flagged in VMI as “OPEN” on February 14, 2023

 

Issue

Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain Model Year (“MY”) 2012-2016 E-Class, GL-Class, GLE-Class, GLK-Class, and ML-Class (166, 204, 212 platforms) vehicles, the coding of the control units for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and fully integrated transmission control (VGS) do not correspond to the specifications as part of the “BlueTEC update” diesel field measure. This could result in the CAL ID (Calibration ID) not being read out from the vehicle and re-documented in the relevant systems. This situation does not have any additional technical implications for the vehicle.

 

What We’re Doing

MBUSA will conduct an Emission Service Campaign in which an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will update the SCN coding for SCR and VGS on the affected vehicles.

 

Parts

Parts are not required for this campaign since the remedy is software based

 


Perform SCN coding in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and fully integrated transmission control (VGS) control units
