I asked them to send me a copy of the service bulliten, if it does not require parts or special tools I would do it myself. She said the Service manager would try and get a copy and email it to me.

Has anyone else been called in for a service bulliten on their 09?
Where can we find a copy of this, or any, Service Bulletin?

heres the scoop!
-couple of sticker issues, door jam and engine compartment. not sticking well enough and cant be read.
-new battery for certain model with options, it seems as if the battery is too small for well equiped models
-new owners manual, tells about the shifting, and battery size.
-upgrade on computer program. for shifting.

this is all from the factory, kinda strange if your dealer says isnt needed.

They're doing all that on the 09 models too? I thought most of that stuff was only for the 08's. - sheureka

I called and talked the service guy at the Mercedes dealership who handles the smart. The guy looked up my car since I had bought it at the smart dealer attached to them and based off my VIN I apparently do not need anything done. He says that my car has no campaigns outstanding (didn't know my car was running for president).
