Karim,

Thank you for the update. It sounds like you are getting close! I can't wait for it to run. Once you have it running I hope you will post a full write up of just the electronics. I am ready to do my swap and want to start as soon as you have your car running and I fully understand the electronic issues and your car is running normally.

I spoke to a guy with experience with Mercedes, and he says I could run into problems with my transmisssion and rear end because of gear ratios differences and being able to work with the ESP and traction control. Any thoufhts on this?
